Thanks
How many pages do we have?
12... or 13...
Really?
That means 6 o 7 more...
I'm back
Hello, Mr. Hattori
Sorry to disturb
Rewriting? Thanks
It saves me the trouble
Meet your aunt?
Yes, but she couldn't come
Make us some tea
Can you stay for dinner?
No, I have to rush off
Why? I can go to Tokyo with you
tomorrow
Tokyo? What for?
The hospital
And you need some new collars
Oh, that mah-jong hand you had
we over-calculated
Which means... 8 and 16?
So I was ahead, after all
Say, Noriko
Is Sei at home?
Go ask. We'll have a game
You're finished?
Well, almost
No game, then
What about our tea!
You brought the manuscript?
Yes, of course!
Want to charge places?
No, I'm alright
Father, coming home early?
Yes, unless there's a faculty meeting
Watch your step
Just got here?
No, yesterday
You're looking well
Really?
Going somewhere?
Shopping
May I join you?
You're not busy?
No, I'm finished
An art show. Want to  look in on it?
But, I have to get some needles
Sure, let's go!
Tired, Noriko?
I enjoyed it
Hadn't been to Ueno in ages
But you know, things certainly
have been changed
See that boy aiming at the pigeon
on that statue?
Just like Wilhelm Tell!
Professor. Shigeno dropped by...
Oh? Is he still in town?
He said he was leaving today
Oh, this is Somiya's daughter
Really? And so grown up
The one who used to have short hair?
Right
You don't say
Your father comes here often
Nori-chan... have some?
I don't drink
Would you like something to eat?
Not yet, but I'll pour for you
We' have more
You know...
I heard that
That you've remarried...
Yes... I have
I feel sorry for Misako
It's... it's just not natural!
She doesn't mind
They get on quite well
I wonder. I'd find it distasteful
What's distasteful? My wife?
No. You!
Why?
It seems... well, unclean
Unclean
Foul?
Now I'm really in for it
I'm filthy, eh?
Any better?
No good, eh? Now, that's bad!
Really! Filthy, eh?
Yes, that's serious!
I'm back. Brought somebody
I hadn't planned to come
but she insisted
A business trip?
The Education Ministry again
Father, a surprise
Where'd you find these?
No wonder we couldn't find them
around the house!
My sake shop? You went there?
I made her keep me company
Like some more sake?
We have any?
Make it hot
How was the blood count?
Down to 15
Oh? That's good
She looks fine
Forced labour during the war
That did it
And spending her holidays scrounging
for food!
Bad times! She suffered
We had so little...
Don't you worry!
Your family, are they well?
Yes, but it seems I've sinned
Nori-chan insists I'm unclean!
Says I'm base and foul!
Isn't that right?
Is Misa-chan well?
She's going around saying
that marriage is life's graveyard
Refuses to marry until she's 24
Come to think of it, maybe it's true
There's nothing I can do
But how about Nori-chan?
Yes, it's time I did something about her
but...
It's only lukewarm
Warm the next one, better
Is the ocean near?
A 15 minutes walk
So far? Is it on this side?
No... this side!
Oh? And the shrine... over this way?
No... this way
Where's Tokyo?
Tokyo's in this direction
East is this way?
No, it's that way!
Oh? Always been that way?
No wonder warlords liked this area
A real labyrinth!
You're all right? Not tired?
Oh, I'm fine!
The, which type am I?
Well, you're not the jealous type
On the contrary, I am
I wonder
When I slice pickles
they come out all strung together
That's a matter which concerns the knife
It proves nothing about pickles
or jealousy
You like pickles strung together?
At times I wouldn't mind them
Certainly young people
have changed since our days!
Take that bride
From a nice family
But she ate everything, even drank!
Her appetite, and those big painted lips
I am shocked
Why blame her? She was hungry
At my wedding
I was too nervous to even touch the food
But you'd eat it now
Never!
But then... who can say?
You'
