really only the same problem
You're still stuck
Proportional division
I explained it last night
Oh, so that's it
Wrong again
You'll have to take greater care
if you want to enter Junior High
You are so careless
You'll never do anything great
if you don't enter high school
If you study harder
I'll send you to the best school
Just relax and concentrate
I did it!
It's easy if you think more carefully
That's good. Easy, wasn't it?
Get the fishing tackle
Check for tangles
Is the float secure?
We'll get some worms tomorrow
There're some in the garden
Catch plenty tomorrow
The fish here are wily
They're hard to catch
Now the exams are over
how do you feel?
What about that other lad?
Who?
What's his name? The merchant's son
Toshi? He passed
He did? Good
Don't know how I did it
I missed Question 4
Just one doesn't matter so much
You'll have to live in the dorm
It's too far to commute every day
Me? Alone in Ueda?
I'll visit you once a week
You'll soon get used to it
Summer vacation will soon be here
and you can come home then
Hen is a female chicken?
And "rooster" is the male?
What's "dog" then?
English is difficult
I'm starving
What's that yellow stuff with rice?
Rice with curry?
Yeh, it tastes good
Good but hot
Ryohei, a visitor
What brings you, father?
I happended to be in town
Get permission to come out
He'll probably give you some money
No, he already did
Then buy us something
Sure
Let's give his father a nickname
Like what?
How about "Badger"?
Yes, that's good
We're off to weed
Again? They sure grow fast
Here, have some
I'm supposed to be weeding
With the other boys
I feel sorry for them
That's alright
Buy them some sweets
No, thanks
You had enough?
I'm stuffed
Rice with curry?
You want some?
Not today?
Behave yourself
Don't worry, father
There're only 53 more days to go
To summer vacation?
Father, can we fish in that river?
I bet we'll catch a lot
In summer we can go everyday
I'm afraid not, son
I came to tell you
That I've decided...
to move to Tokyo
Tokyo?
Great! When?
But you're staying here
You have your studies
I've thought it over
I'll have to work in the city
Here I can't make enough money
to continue to send you to good schools
So, I've decided to make an effort
I think you're mature enough...
to understand all this
I'll work in Tokyo,
and you'll study here
We must do what's best
Try hard, son
I'm still young enough
to make a new start
You shouldn't get lazy
Now, it's nothing to cry about
It won't be for a lifetime
Not for a lifetime
I'll be waiting for you to come and visit
We'll soon be back together again
Now, stop your crying
It's not easy to see you
I've brought you some things
Shirts, pants, towels
and 3 pairs of socks
Wear the socks in turn
and they'll last longer
These are for healing colds
For stomach aches
Don't drink unboiled water
Watch out for colds
Keep your chest warm at night
Here's some money
Don't waste it
I'll write as soon as I get to Tokyo
And you write to me every week
Like now
You understand? Here's some stamps
Stop crying
It's nearly time to go
When's the time to return?
7 o'clock
We still have some time
You must try hard
More sake, please
You want curry and rice?
Just sake then
Come here, son
Now, don't cry
Men shouldn't cry
I hear your son graduated
from high school?
Which university will he attend?
In Sendai city
I thought we'd live together here
but...
It's a pity, isn't it?
Still, he must study harder
Excuse me
Mr. Hirata!
It's been a long time
Yes
I wondered if it was you
So you're in Tokyo now?
It's an odd place to meet
Have you been in Tokyo long?
Do you often come here?
Quite often
Is that so?
I'm often here myself
I wonder why we didn't meet sooner
I'm pleased you're well
I'm really glad to see you
Me too
How long have you been in Tokyo?
I last saw you in Ueda, at the temple
That was 12... 13 year ago
It's such a long time
