Title: Hear the Waves of Turnabout

Pearl: Yes.

Pearl: I want to find another one just like this.

PW: Wait, did you...

Pearl: Yes.

Pearl: It's very important to me,

Pearl: but I dropped it, and it broke.

PW: I knew it!

Pearl: And I can't hear the waves anymore!

PW: The waves?

Pearl: Yes. I used to be able to hear the ocean when I put it to my ear.

PW: That's a big hole right there.

Pearl: I couldn't find the missing piece.

Pearl: Please come with me and help me find a new shell!

PW: But I've never seen anything like this before.

Pearl: What is it?

PW: Oh, uh...

PW: What the heck? Why do I feel like I recognize it from somewhere?

Pearl: I hear it's a special kind of seashell that you can only find at that beach.

PW: And where is this beach?

Pearl: I don't know.

Pearl: But I do have a lead!

PW: Let's get going, shall we?

PW: It's important to you, huh?

Pearl: Mayoi-sama gave it to me. It's my treasure.

PW: She did?

Pearl: Yes.

Sign: Five Years Ago

Pearl: Mother, what bird is that?

Morgan: That's a kite.

Morgan: They'll swoop down and try to steal any fried foods you might be eating.

Morgan: Watch out for them.

Pearl: You know a lot of things, Mother.

Morgan: It's almost time for lunch.

Pearl: Okay. I'll go get Mayoi-sama.

Pearl: Mayoi... sama?

Maya: Hami-chan!

Pearl: Mayoi-sama!

Pearl: I'm sorry I entered your room without permission!

Maya: It's fine. What are you looking at?

Pearl: Um, what is this?

Maya: A shell.

Pearl: Shell?

Maya: Never seen one before?

Maya: They're found in the sea.

Pearl: The sea?

Maya: Look. This is what the sea is like.

Maya: Onee-chan took this picture for me.

Pearl: Wow, what is this?

Pearl: Blue water as far as the eye can see!

Maya: Yup. I was amazed the first time I saw it, too.

Maya: I had no idea the world could be so vast.

Pearl: The world?

Maya: The world outside Kurain Village.

Pearl: Huh? But there's nothing outside the village.

Pearl: Only mountains.

Pearl: That's what Mother says.

Maya: The sea is amazing.

Maya: It's where all life came from.

Default - flashback: ,Life?

Maya: It gave birth to the mountains, the fish, and then humans.

Maya: I heard this place was also part of the ocean a long, long time ago.

Pearl: What? I can't believe it!

Maya: Say, Hami-chan. Do you want to see the ocean?

Pearl: Yes, I do!

Pearl: But...

Maya: Leave it to your Mayoi-chan!

Pearl: "There's nothing in this world but Kurain Village and the mountains.

Pearl: So you mustn't ever leave the village."

Pearl: That's what I'd been told all my life.

PW: That's kind of extreme.

Pearl: Wanting to see the ocean was a request that would never be accepted.

Morgan: Absolutely not!

Morgan: Harumi will not take one step out of the village.

Maya: B-But, hey,

Maya: it's almost time for this year's Dedication Ceremony.

Maya: I could just take Hami-chan with me.

Morgan: Only the main family's head may leave the village, and only once a year.

Morgan: That is the Kurain's ironclad rule, and I shouldn't have to remind you.

Maya: Well, yeah,

Maya: but Mom and Sis said it was important to learn about the outside world.

Morgan: This discussion is over.

Maya: Aunt?

Morgan: If you wish to become head in the future, you'll never again speak such nonsense.

Pearl: Um, I think I don't want to see the ocean after all.

Pearl: I'm very sorry!

Maya: Hami-chan!

PW: Nice.

PW: All right, let's go.

Pearl: Yes!

Pearl: Is this really all right?

Maya: Of course it is. I promised to show you the ocean, didn't I?

Pearl: You did.

Maya: But don't tell Auntie, okay?

Maya: It'll be our little secret.

Pearl: Our little secret!

Pearl: That was on this day five years ago.

PW: So today's the anniversary, huh?

Pearl: Yes! That's why I wanted to come look for the shell today, no matter what!

Maya: Look, we're almost there!

Pearl: Look! We're almost there!

Maya: And here we are!

Pearl: This is... the ocean?

Maya: I really wanted to show you this.

Pearl: Mayoi-sama...

Maya: I'll look here!

Maya: Please search over there, Naruhodo-kun!

PW: Got it!

Morgan: What is the meaning of this?

Morgan: As a head candidate, surely you're aware of the village's rules!

Maya: Yes...

Morgan: And how could you take her without permission?

Morgan: What if something had happened to Harumi-chan?!

Maya: I'm sorry, Aunt.

Morgan: Good grief. I see the rotten apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Morgan: Just look at your mother!

Morgan: Remind me, what happened when she broke the rules and got involved with outsiders?

Morgan: Not only did she ruin the Kurain's reputation,she went and disappeared!

Maya: But that was for the village's betterment—

Morgan: And Chihiro-sama, too.

Morgan: She left the village, saying she wanted to become a lawyer.

Morgan: Of all the selfish acts!

Maya: No! Onee-chan's trying to find leads on Mom's whereabouts!

Morgan: You women of the main family are an embarrassment to the Kurain!

Pearl: Mother! Mayoi-sama did it for me!

Morgan: Oh, don't you worry about a thing. You did nothing wrong.

Morgan: Her powers are superior to yours!

Morgan: It's only because of your blood that you stand above her!

Morgan: Never forget that!

Pearl: Mayoi-sama...

Maya: Hami-chan?

Pearl: I'm so sorry. It's all because I was so selfish.

Maya: Nah. I'm the one who invited you.

Maya: You have nothing to apologize for.

Maya: Oh, right. Hang on a sec.

Pearl: What's that?

Maya: A special seashell you can only find at that beach.

Maya: Here. Try putting it to your ear.

Pearl: Oh, I hear something.

Maya: It's the waves.

Maya: This shell is filled with the sound of that ocean.

Pearl: Wow, that's amazing.

Maya: Right? You can have it!

Pearl: What? Really?

Maya: Really. To remember this day.

Maya: With this, you can hear the ocean whenever you want.

Pearl: Thank you so much, Mayoi-sama.

PW: Your special seashell is pretty hard to find.

Pearl: How could I drop and break it?

Pearl: I don't know how to face Mayoi-sama!

PW: Actually, I'm sure she'll understand.

PW: Is that a shrine?

PW: It looks really old.

PW: Since we're here, why don't we ask the gods for help?

Pearl: Okay.

Bo: May we find the seashell.

Maya: Oh, there it is!

PW: Mayoi-chan?!

PW: Mayoi-chan?!

Maya: Wait, what?

Maya: Naruhodo-kun and Hami-chan? What are you doing here?

Maya: I'm amazed you found this place!

PW: U-Uh, well...

Maya: I was just about to take a break.

Maya: Oh, right. What say we go get some ramen?

PW: What? Ramen?

Maya: Yep! There should be a ramen stall nearby right about now!

Maya: It's a once-a-year treat for me!

Maya: You come too, Hami-chan!

Maya: Ramen, ramen, ramen!

PW: H-Hey wait...

Maya: Huh? Didn't Hami-chan tell you?

PW: "Dedication Ceremony"?

Maya: Every year, on this day, the Kurain head visits this place

Maya: and performs a rite to return the spirits they summoned to the sea.

PW: Once a year?

PW: So five years ago, too?

Maya: Yep. I brought Hami-chan with me that time.

Maya: Maybe she doesn't remember it.

Pearl: I-It's not like that...

Maya: But how did you find this place?

PW: Misopp's Fables is that ramen chain you love, right?

Maya: Yeah! There's one near the office, too!

Maya: The miso there is divine!

PW: That's how I realized...

PW: that this is a list of ramen places on the way from the station to the beach.

Wave_Ramen,Sign: WaveRamen

PW: So I looked up coastal towns with these eateries in this order

Wave_Ramen,Sign: Wave Ramen

PW: and found this place.

Maya: Wow, that's my Naruhodo-kun!

Maya: All life comes from the ocean and ascends to heaven.

Maya: That's why we built a village up in the mountains to call to the spirits.

Maya: Onee-chan's words, not mine.

Maya: She told me that when she first brought me here.

Maya: That surprised me!

Mia: Feels great, doesn't it?

Maya: Yeah! The ocean is pretty amazing!

Mia: I wanted to come here with you.

Maya: And she gave me a big seashell to remember that day by.

PW: A big... seashell?

Maya: Yep! When you put it to your ear, you can hear the ocean waves!

Maya: Man, that sure takes me back!

Pearl: U-Um, I have something to do! You two enjoy yourselves!

Maya: Hami-chan?!

PW: Hey, Mayoi-chan.

PW: Did you give that seashell to Harumi-chan?

Maya: Yeah, I did.

Wave_Ramen,Sign: Wave Ramen

Pops: Here's your wave miso ramen.

PW: Th-This is...

Maya: Man, this aroma really hits the spot.

Maya: You don't see a bowl shaped like a seashell very often, right?

PW: So that's what it was!

Maya: That's what what was?

Maya: I see. You came looking for a shell?

Maya: Hami-chan could've just told me.

PW: So this is what that shell was.

PW: No wonder we couldn't find one.

Maya: Okay, now that it's cleared up, I'll give Hami-chan this...

PW: Hang on.

PW: Could you let me handle this?

Maya: And she gave me a big seashell to remember that day by.

PW: Harumi-chan.

Pearl: Oh, Naruhodo-kun.

PW: How'd it go? Did you find it?

Pearl: Well...

PW: Here you go, then.

Pearl: Is this...

Pearl: A new seashell?

Maya: Isn't it cool, Hami-chan?

Pearl: M-Mayoi-sama...

PW: Mayoi-chan found it just now.

Maya: He told me you were looking for one.

Maya: That shell broke, right?

Maya: But this new one will let you hear the ocean again.

PW: Aren't you glad, Harumi-chan?

Maya: Hami-chan?

Pearl: I'm sorry, Mayoi-sama, Naruhodo-kun.

Pearl: I'm thankful that you found a new seashell for me,

Pearl: but I prefer this one.

Pearl: I didn't know that this shell was packed with so many important things.

Pearl: Mayoi-sama's memories, and Chihiro-sama's...

Pearl: Due to the hole, you can't hear the ocean from it anymore,

Pearl: but I love this seashell very much!

Maya: Thank you, Hami-chan.

Pearls: Of course!

Maya: Thank you... Hami-chan.

Pearl: Are you crying, Mayoi-sama?

Maya: I'm just so happy.

Wave_Ramen,Sign: Wave Ramen

PW: Thanks for the bowl, pops!

Pops: No problem!

Maya: Think Hami-chan will like it?

PW: Yeah.

PW: A precious and memorable seashell, huh?

Pearl: I can hear the ocean from this shell, actually.

Maya: Right.

PW: Then I'll go give this one back.

PW: The waves have made a comeback, after all.

Maya: Man, that was yummy!

Mia: Right? Mom brought me here a long time ago.

Maya: It's called miso ramen? I'd never eaten it before.

Mia: You know, this bowl is actually pretty incredible.

Mia: It looks like a seashell, right?

Mia: If you put it to your ear,you can actually hear the ocean!

Maya: What? Really?!

Mia: H-Hey, Mayoi!

Wave_Ramen,Sign: Wave Ramen

Mia: Well?

Maya: Yeah, I can hear the ocean.

Mia: Say, Mayoi.

Mia: Did you think about what I said?

Maya: You mean becoming the head?

Mia: I'm sorry. I know I shouldn't be asking this of you,

Mia: but I really want to leave the village.

Mia: I want to become a lawyer and learn the truth.

Maya: Okay. I'll take over the clan.

Maya: So don't worry about a thing and become an awesome lawyer.

Mia: Mayoi...

Mia: Thank you.

PW: Memories, huh?

PW: Oh, I remember now!

Mia: Naruhodo-kun, would you find the files related to this case for me?

PW: S-Sure!

PW: Yikes...

PW: Er...

Mia: Oh, that photo is a precious memory I shared with my little sister.
