Shoji!
Shoji, enough!
Stop it and apologize,
I'll tell your dad,
Don't!
I'm back,
Welcome back!
Oh, Naomi, what's wrong? What's going on?
Shoji, you idiot,
-Shoji, run! - Come here!
No!,,,No!,,, No!
You're bad again, you bastard,
Okay Okay Naomi, don't cry, Don't cry,
Is my brain getting worse and worse?
What should I do in the future?
How does a person live alone?
Am I too old?
-No, - No, no,
Don't blame everything on your age,
Hmm,
So, what would you say for the reason?
Due to the long years of housewife life?
Ah, so many years of life without any changes,
You can't even remember anymore, can you?
Yosaku - Saburo Kitajima (1978)
Yosaku cuts away the tree,
Whatever the reason, you can't do anything,
It doesn't matter, It's just this much,
You guys are annoying,
A housewife's life is different from a man's who spends his days cutting down trees,
-What's the difference? -What's the difference?
The life of a housewife is more creative,,,
It's okay, You've got us to keep you company,
That's right,
We'll be with you till the end,
I don't want it,
What are you talking about?
-You have no choice, - Right,
Just give up,
By the way, who are you guys?
No need to ask, we are you!
Me?
We are you,
"We are you,"?
-We are you, -We are you,
We are you,
I Shall Live by Myself (2020)
Autobiography Of Earth - John Hodgdon Bradley
Go back to sleep,
There's no good getting up anyway,
Today is no different from yesterday anyway,
It's the same as lying down,
Go back to sleep,
Love The Earth Expo 2005 Aichi Japan
The most striking is
Recovered from the permafrost of the Sakha Republic, Russia,
Yukagir Mammoth
And then, in 2019, Yukagir Mammoth will finally come to Japan,
Not only that but also many recent discoveries
with world's first publicly available rare frozen specimens
It's the largest exhibition of mammoths ever,
We will present a mammoth story that transcends time and space,
The story first goes back to the distant past,
How did the mammoths live in ancient times?
And then why did they become extinct,,,
Yum!
Mr, Hirama, thanks for waiting,
-I'll take this, -Okay, please come with me,,
To all of you who've been watching over me and to all of my fans, I'm sorry for all the trouble I caused,
I'm really sorry,
Does it still hurt?
What time is it?
Highly popular local bakery
Tell me the truth! You slept with my wife!
I didn't do it!
Lying! Aah! Ouch! Ouch!
Ms, Hidaka, Ms, Hidaka Momoko,
Thank you for waiting, Please follow me,
Yes,
Ms, Hidaka, good morning,
Good morning,
How are you feeling since last time?
Yeah, it doesn't hurt much anymore,
Really? Then I'll give you some more medicine,
-Okay, -Take care,
Um?
Nothing
Anything to worry about?
Yeah, Ask me if you have any,
Ah,,,
For example
Will dementia symptoms or something makes the brain keep ringing the voices inside?
Ah,,
For that,,,
We'll have to go to National Hospital,
Why do you still speak the Tohoku dialect?
I think this is the first sign of Alzheimer's,
That doctor is unreliable,
You don't want to go to National Hospital, It's too old,
It was so nice back then,
Right, right,
Everywhere you go, there's a young doctor who doesn't know anything,
Right, right,
There are no reliable doctors in this city,
Everyone is being cured to death,
Right, right,
It's not something to laugh,
Don't mind it, It's okay,
Yeah, what's wrong with speaking the Tohoku dialect?
Well, it's just that,,,
We're all imagined by a lonely old lady who lives alone so she doesn't get too lonely,
Right,
No, The human heart is not that simple,
Our history too,
Like the earth with many layers of rock accumulated and deposited,
-Here we go again, -Yes, yes, yes,
What is it?
Here we go again, Something about the Earth,
Did you go to the library too much?
No, not necessarily,
The Tohoku dialect that lies somewhere in my heart, the oldest layer,,,
You always like to use words that are so difficult to understand,
All right, let's make the rice balls,
Squeeze it, squeeze it, squeeze it,
Put some miso in it,
You don't need anything except to pay it back on time every month,
After 2 years, if you want to continue using the car
pay the rest, that's it,
For you who do not know how many more years to sit like this, I think it's appropriate to buy this,
Yeah, if you don't have a car, what if something happens?
If you want one, this light one will be enough,
It's very fuel-efficient,
Is it?
That N-BOX is very popular,
Is it?
And I think this silver one's pretty good,
That's the one,
This one, It's great,
It looks a little plain,
No, no, this can be done according to your preference,
It may be my last car,
What do I do if I can't drive it anymore?
Miss
Yes?
The wandering son is far away but Honda is near you,
You can think of me as your son,
No, that's too,,,
Right?
There she is!
Not here yet,
There she is!
Yes,
Ms, Hidaka
Interested in Taishogoto (Nagoya Harp)?
It's very fun,

What are you afraid of?
No,,,
Can you pass this gap?
Still eating,
Eating all the time,
Huh? Just now,,,
I had lunch, right?
The day has gone by in a blink of an eye,
Don't just come in here and talk by yourself,
I'm tired,
Didn't you only go to the hospital and the library today?
Do you want to try Taishogoto?
-That's it, -Right?
Don't say such stupid things,
By the way, what is Taishogoto?
Don't know,
Taishogoto is Taishogoto,
So, what is a Taishogoto?
I told you it's Taishogoto!
-No way! No way! -Where is it?
Where is it?
There it is!
Master!
Taishogoto is a very profound instrument,
It's good to try everything, isn't it?
As expected from the master,
The weight of words is different,
I wish I could be like him,
Right,
What a chatterbox!
If you talk like that in front of people, how embarrassing,
There are people like that,,, who nag and nag and nag,
Ah, how embarrassing,
If you're confused, how will you live your life?
Embarrassing,
It's so awful,

Isn't this Grandma?
You try
I'm the same as Grandma,
That's right, That's right,
Sorry, Grandma,
You're actually scared, aren't you?
All alone,
You became unconsciously mean because of eye problem,
I was too young to understand your feelings at that time,
Please forgive me,
Yeah, well done, Well done,
I'm not the only one who's worried,
I'm not the only one,
Similar thing repeats all the time,
Grandma and I, 70 years apart, share the same disease,
Do you want to play sandbag?
Here, here,
One, One, One,
There, I can't look anymore,
Again, it's the same old,

I'm not the only one,
I'll get by,
Want a squeeze?
Same as mochi,
Everyone will turn out like this,
Doesn't it hurt?
It doesn't hurt,
I'm not the only one,
I'll get by,
Grandma
I'm right here,
Your granddaughter
Alone like this, lonely at home,
Looking at the evening sun in the sky,
I've become like this now,
Sorry, Grandma,
Is it okay for me?
Is this okay?
That's fine,
I told you to go back to sleep,
There's nothing to do when you get up anyway,
It's just you anyway,
Anyway
Construction is currently underway
The exterior is almost complete
The exciting stage was unveiled today ahead of the completion date next February,
Construction is at 70%,
So, let's look back to 1964,

The time when they were urged to go to the capital by the trumpet sound,
Cuban young man waving the flag
German team 374 people marching in unison,
Stars and Stripes at the front of the American team,
The resilient foot takes to the brick-red runway

Momoko, come,
On this day,
Ms, Momoko of your family
Tie the knot with our Shokichi
Thank you so much!
I'm sorry for the intrusion
It's the son of the union president,
The day the wedding with a strange man was about to take place,
I ran away,
Let's eat in the car,
Bye, Thanks, Take care,
I've regained my life to be a woman of the new era,
Hello,
-Katsudon? Katsudon, One Katsudon! - Okay,
Waiter, Accommodation included,
Welcome!
-Tenzaru (Tempura Soba) -Okay
-One Tenzaru -Okay
Hey, I didn't order Tanuki (Udon soup), I ordered Kamo Nanban (Duck noodle),
Don't do this, I don't have time,
Ah, that,,, this,,,
Did you hear my order?
Ah, that,,,
-I'm asking you, - Me?
-Me? -Oh, no, Are you talking about me?
Forget it, Hurry up and bring it,
Sorry,
First the noodle shop, then izakaya,
Okay,
-So you have experience in the restaurant industry, right? - Yes,
-And then, you're looking for accommodation? -Yes,
Are you from Iwate Prefecture?
Yes, that's right,
Oh, so you're close to Tokichi,
So, when can you start working?
These are the fixed menus
Seasonal dishes are written on the blackboard here,
Yes,
-Also, this changes every two months, - Yes,
And, the beer here is in stock in the warehouse,
Whoever running out of beer, go and fill it up,
Yes
Ashtrays are washed and stacked here
If there is still unclear, you can always ask me!
Awesome!
Ah, that,
I heard from the manager that you're from Yamagata Prefecture,
I'm from Iwate Prefecture,
But you don't have an accent, I think it's awesome,
In dialect: If you don't know anything else, feel free to ask me!
In dialect: Okay!
Hey, 2 Yakisoba are ready!
Excuse me, Excuse me,
Yakisoba here,
Aishite Aishite Aishichattanoyo by Hara Yuko & Inamura Orchestra
I'm in love with you
I'm in love with only you till death do us part
In love with you
Sleeping and waking up with only you in my eyes
Living my life like that,
It's like a long and painful night,
It's a feeling that no one will ever understand,
Marriage should be with the person you like,
Right, right,
I don't want to stay in countryside,
Right, right,
I am the new woman,
Yes, that's right, Momoko is the new woman,
When I left, no one came to see me,
That's bad,
Tokichi
Momoko,,,Okay, okay, okay,
Momoko, don't cry,
It's alright,
What is?
Nice shot,
Mt, Hakkaku?
Don't you know?
I don't know,
Is this mountain in Iwate Prefecture?
No, it's not a famous mountain,
Did you dream about that mountain?
I don't know why,
I didn't really care that much when I was there,
Are you homesick?
Impossible,
I really hate that mountain,
Is it?
Grandma used to bow to that mountain every morning,
I sure as hell don't want to go home,
Sorry,
By the way, you,,,
You always take a breath before you say "I" (Watashi)
Like you're struggling to say it,
That line really hit me right in the heart,
Right, you're doing your best to adapt to the big city,
But I know what I'm doing,
Really?
But,,, I said "I" (Ora) subconsciously,
and suddenly I had to say Watashi,
In a sense, it's like a kind of thought reform,
Thought reform,
But, one time
I heard a man talking loudly in the store
Ms, Hidaka Ms, Hidaka Momoko
Really
Just when I'm having a good time,
We're the ones who did it in the first place, (T/N: He's using Ora)
Why do we have to change now? I don't understand,
Our previous efforts have been ignored,
I'm not gonna take it just like that, You too,
That's right,
I don't accept it, None of us do,
Those of us must not compromise,
-We're gonna do it anyway, -Okay, eat your food,
All that complaining, Lunch break's almost over,
My miso soup is getting cold,
Let's eat,
You're in love,
In love with you
Stop it!
Is this the first time you met?
Yeah, like that,
And then?
From then on, Shuzo would often come to eat,
In love with you
Sleeping and waking up with only you in my eyes,
Sorry
I always give him a full bowl of rice,
It's so full, It's a big bowl,
Thank you,
I change the water without him asking,
We have completely different glasses,
And then, one day
I got up the courage to talk to him,
And then what? And then what?
I remember, Of course, I remember Mt, Hakkaku,
You remember,
That's the conical mountain, right?
-The cone,,, -It's a beautiful mountain,
It looks like a jumping box from my side,
Jumping box? Then, you're looking at it from the side
-The side? Where's the front? -On my side,
-No, -No, it's on my side,
-No, it's on my side? -No, it's on my side,
What a nice love story,
Right,
Look at your happy face,
I'm not!
-You, -Stop it!
And then what? Who confessed first?
What are you so shy about?
It's settled,
Once you get to the hospital, the day will be over in a flash,
I'm in love with you
just to you with all my heart
So, Shuzo is the hometown you're looking for in the city,
Maybe that's true,
Only you in my eyes
But it's like being in the middle of a long, painful night,
It's a feeling that no one will ever understand,
Today, Ms, Momoko went to National Hospital,
She waited for 3 hours,
The doctor told her to keep it under observation for a while,
How many old people are still on observation in this world?
Let's sing tonight
Ms, Hidaka Momoko will give you a special evening,
We've been waiting! Japan No,1!!!
You've gone
And left me alone
Where did Shuzo go leaving me alone?
Come back! Come back! Damn you, Shuzo!
You're such a nice guy,
Liar, liar, you're lying to me,
Although I said don't lie to me again,
Yo! Japan No, 1!
Momoko!
Ms, Hidaka Momoko 75th Anniversary Special Concert
Ah, damn Shuzo!
I'll live alone from now on,
There is a God and a Buddha
I'm happy, both body and mind,
I've spent most of my life trying to do my best,
I've been satisfied,
No regrets in Life,
Don't say just grand words,
I know that you're just going through regrets right now,
No,
You obviously want to be free to live this life,
You regret your life with the man you like,
I have no regrets,
Tell the truth!
Come on!
Without realizing it, I gave myself to him,
If only I could love myself a little more,
What I regret is not becoming the new woman,
Not being tied down by my parents, not following their orders,
That's why I ran away from home,
And in the end, I'm still bound to the old way of life in Tokyo,
Love is a very strange thing,
Listen up
You all keep your ears open and listen up,
Freedom and self-reliance are more important than love,
No matter what, you can't give in to love,
-Good point, -Stop it!
Stop it! Stop it!
Calm down, everybody,
It's dangerous, Stop,
Stop it! Stop it!
It's dangerous,
Don't crowd,
Okay, here we go,
Miss, your new car is here!
Does your daughter live around here?
Yes,
That's good,
What's good?
If something happens, she can get here quickly,
Yeah, she'll be here soon,
Hi, I'm Hidaka,
What?
Yes?
Is it okay?
My son is on a trip right now,
Eh? Was that just,,,
There have been a lot of these calls lately,
-Is there a lot of them? -A lot of them,
You can't trust them,
Of course, how could I possibly believe that?
It's okay,
Contact me if there's any problem with the car,
Because "the wandering son is far away"?
What?
No, it's nothing,
Come back for tea next time,
Okay, I'll come back again,
Thank you, Excuse me,
Ms, Hidaka, do you want to do Taikyoku (Taichi)?
Taikyoku?
Some people are doing in the park by MAMI supermarket,
It's fun, Let's do together,
I'll pass,
Yeah? Okay,
Hello?
Hello
Anything?
Well, auntie, it's me,
Don't you remember?
You're a friend of Shoji's?
It's been a long time,
Oh my, you've grown so much!
No,
You became a cop? I didn't even know that,
Yes,
Well,,,
There's a big tree over there,
Its branches extend into the road, It's dangerous,
A resident just called the police to complain,
Eh?
It doesn't look that dangerous,
I'm sorry, I'd like to do something about it but,,,
But I have a bad back,
Is it?
I'll throw this down,
Can I take this one off?
-You can, -Okay,
Okay, I'm putting it down,
This side too?
-Please, -Okay,
It's a nice yard, though I didn't think so before,
But I can't take care of it anymore,
It's a lot of work to maintain all this,
I'd like to replace the fence with a brick wall,
But I consulted people, they all think it's useless,
Is it?
It's not easy to just stand and talk,
I heard Shoji is in Shizuoka Prefecture,
He quit the university and went to work there,
I haven't heard from him since then,
Is that so?
So, I'm just going to assume he's no longer there,
Umm?
Because it's easier to think that way,
Indeed
Thank you for your hospitality,
Thank you,
Well, if you have any trouble, you can call me anytime,
Thank you,
I'll take Shoji's place,
You should be careful with your back, auntie,
Hi, I'm Hidaka,
Magic with Courage
My love has 1 million volts
Mother
What happened?
Did you buy the car?
No, I didn't buy it, I rented it monthly,
What is it?
Yoshiko's colleague saw a new car parked in front of your house and asked me if you bought it,
Are you home tomorrow?
Well, yeah,
Well, I'll come see you,
Bye
-Why are you so happy? -I'm not,
-Yes, you did, -I didn't,
-Yes, yes, -I said no,
No, you're really happy, you see, smiling,
-You're laughing, -I'm not,
Grandma, we're here,
Rice is heavy,
I'll take it,
What are you talking about? You have a bad back,
She certainly wants something,
Yes, yes definitely,
Else she wouldn't have bought something to see you,
Right?
No, there's nothing going on,
No, it's suspicious,
Why did you choose the gray one?
Because gray doesn't look dirty,
N-BOX has other colors that look better,
There're gray cars like that all over the place,
It's hard to find a car in the parking lot,
And then
Mom,
It's a little sudden though,,,
Can you lend me some money?
There she is,
Money?
Well, Takashi,,,
Takashi is doing drawing class near home,
It seems that he has a talent for drawing,
So, I want him to take better classes downtown and seriously learn,
But my part-time job fee is not enough to cover the entrance fee and tuition,
So, I think you'll lend it to me,
What to do?
Isn't it just a hobby class?
But it's also important to invest in your child,
Is it?
Mom, please,
But I rented a car,
Isn't that a rental?
What? If Shoji asks, you lend to him right away,
That's why you got scammed by a phone call,
2,5 million yen,
2,5 million yen is a lot, you know?
Sorry,
Grandma, I really envy you,
Envy what?
You're free,
Isn't Saya free?
Because I'm afraid of my mom,
Is it?
She gets angry when I don't move,
Is it?
Sorry for the wait,
Take care when you drive, Mom,
When will you come next?
I'll come next holiday,
Bye,
Bye-bye
Old Hag
I'm fine growing old like this,
I'm used to it,
But,,,
I don't want to see Naomi get old,
That's how life is,
Heredity
Heredity?
It's all passed on to Naomi,
Sayaka's skirt,
Ruffled Skirt,
I really wanted one when I was a kid,
But my grandma wouldn't buy it,
Then,
Naomi said the same thing when she was little,
So, I sewed desperately,
I stayed up all night sewing a skirt with ruffles all over it,
I think it's a lovely one sewing myself,
Thought Naomi would also happy to wear it,
But then,,,
She said, "No, I don't like it,
That she was forced to wear it,
She blamed me while crying,
That really made me feel bad,
I'm so sorry she has a mother like me,
I'm sorry, Naomi,
Grandma, wait!
Toyo?
This way,
What is it?
Don't ask,
This way,
Through here
What? Why are you here?
He invited me here,
Toyo, don't make trouble,
Why? What does it matter?
Shoji is stupid,
How can you bring adults here?
But I want people to see our secret base,
I don't want people to see it,
What the hell? Don't bring others here,
I told you not to bring people here,
Go back, old hag,
Who's an old hag?
Gee, it's nice here,
Go back!
You can't see,
Why?
Go back!
Why?
You can get to the woods from here,
You know?
No,
This way,
She ran,
Where to go?
We're going to be angry!
Say something!
What to say?
Anything,
Then I don't know what to say,
If you don't talk, you get used to the silence,
If you don't need to talk, don't talk,
It's not working,
Just say something,
Don't be lazy,
I'm not, I just have back pain,
This is all an excuse,
It's Autumn,
It's Autumn now,
What? There's nothing left,
The old man died young,
The children also became estranged,
I never thought autumn would be this lonely,
Me,,,
What is the outcome?
There's nothing left,
Nothing left,
Get up
You should have taken the bus,
I was trying to walk on my own,
Knowing that you have a bad back,
When was my brightest moment?
Why are you asking this out of the blue?
Is it when I met you?
or
What about when I was trying to survive with two kids?
It's hard to say,
Neither?
I think the years after you died,
That's when I shone the brightest,
After you die,
For the first time, I sincerely hope that the other side really exists,
The one you exist,,,
Where you must be,,,
The world you live in must exist,
It's just that now we're on different sides of the world,
We're on different side?
It would be nice if this was the case,
What are you doing?
Let's play hide-and-seek,
Okay? Let's play hide-and-seek,
This way,
Not yet,
Not yet!
Okay now,
It's hot, It's hot,
It hurt so much at that time,
It hurts, It really hurts,
-No, it's a leech, A leech, -Eh? What?
What to do?
I got it,
It's dead,
Don't laugh,
I never dreamed that this happiness would end one day,
What a silly woman,
I used to think that I didn't need anything else but me and Shuzo,
I've really fell in love,
I don't know where you heard all that from,
How can you say that?
I do like Shuzo,
I love him very much,
But in fact, I still have a little bit to be happy about the death of Shuzo,
I've always wanted to live on my own,
I want to live on my own, the way I want to live,
That's Me,
That's the human called Me,
Don't say that, We have a very close relationship,
Yes, I don't deny that,
Shuzo and I are linked together,
Shuzo died for me to live alone,
It's a pain,
It's the pain that Shuzo left me,
That is,,,
Trying to accept that Shuzo died,
I found the meaning of living for myself,
I will go on,
I will go on alone,
So, it's settled
Right?
Stay with me for the rest of my life,
I'll shoot you,
