Hotaru no Hikari (2007) s01e08 Episode Script

1
Excuse me!
Excuse me!
I brought them!
Hurry.
Yes.
Customers asking for the near impossible is just the right time to show our true powers.
We'll finish it by today.
Yes.
Shall we help too? Can you girls do it in time?
We can.
Great?
My effort at work today?
Not at all, Makoto-kun.
From Teshima-san to Makoto-san. And finally, Makoto-kun
[Note: neesan = big sister. Similar to anego.]
It's all thanks to Yamada-neesan.
It's because she pulls us forward that we get the incentive.
True, the customer who asked for a 5% capacity decreased version by today is unreasonable.
But we made it in the end, so no worries!
Supper?
Oh, I whipped up something easy.
Just used stuff I have at home.
Oh, do you know about the fireworks?
This weekend. It's in a magazine, "Watching fireworks with my love".
Yes. See you.
Goodnight.
Let's go watch fireworks together, Makoto-kun.
Here. Your leftovers.
I'm in the middle of fantasizing about our call right now.
Just clear up.
Okay.
Yokkoi - Shoukichi
Shoukichi this time?
By the way, did you read the bulletin from the town meeting?
Yes.
We're next in charge of the patrolling.
Thank you for everything.
But I have work this day.
What? Both work and patrolling? Must be even harder for you.
This woman- she doesn't even think of attending in my place.
Anyway, manager.
This jersey, I've been wearing this ever since junior high.
Oh.
Yes.
And these stains are from when I opened the soy sauce package inside a convenience store lunch.
Oh.
And these are from all the times I ate curry.
Oh.
And this hole is from when I couldn't bothered to stand up and walked on my knees.
So what?
I'm thinking of showing Makoto-kun how I am
What do you think?
The stains and holes??
Do you think I shouldn't?
Won't he accept me?
No way!
Lying around in jerseys with holes, drinking beer
Your wife was like that?
Just someone I know.
But isn't it cute? She can show her most relaxed self to you.
-Kaname-san, you're so mature.
-You know it.
But not me.
Me neither.
But what if it's cosplaying?
Cosplaying!
Yeah.
Think of jerseys as cosplaying
How about you, Teshima?
Me?
I-
Sister?
Yes.
Makoto-kun has two sisters
One changes into jerseys at home.
The other is always in jerseys.
Teshima doesn't seem to have anything against jerseys at all.
Maybe Makoto-kun wears jerseys at home too.
Maybe like me, he keeps secret that he lies around in jerseys and drinks beer!
If so, what?
If so, there's going to be no trouble for me at all!
Why do you always see things from only one side?
Huh?
If Teshima is the type of guy-
who lies around in jerseys with holes, scratches his butt and pulls magazines with his toes,
how would you feel?
Nothing special.
It's okay?
It's okay.
No way it's okay.
It is!
Here we are!
Jerseys my Dad living in Matsumoto used to wear.
Here, quick.
I'm woman enough to accept a himono-otoko!
[Note: otoko = man]
Dokkoi - Shoukichi.
Oh, Hotaru-san?
Let's go watch fireworks.
It was in a magazine- "Watching fireworks with your love".
Oh no!
I don't like men like this
A definite no!
My girly fantasies are in pieces!
I'm sorry for losing control.
I'm sorry for lack of consideration- because that's what I'm always like.
See? Hearing the description and seeing it in person are totally different.
-But once I get used to it- it's cute.
-That's because it's me.
Then me too.
Is Teshima mature enough to think your himono-ness is cute?
But he told me, "The two of us can overcome anything".
Any person starting to date would say that.
You don't want my love to succeed?
It's because I wish it to succeed that I say these things.
I really wish your love will go on forever.
I wish Teshima is man enough to accept everything about you.
Manager.
It's because I want you to leave this place as soon as possible.
Huh?! It's going to be fine!
I'm never trusting your "It's fine".
He's the guy who made me fall in love.
He shouldn't be just a normal guy.
-Why must you always see everything thing from your point of-
-Let's have faith in him, manager!
Let us have faith in Teshima Makoto!
He will definitely accept everything about me.
It'll be okay!
Probably.
A long, long time ago.
A memory from many summers ago.
I held a tiny firefly
in my childish hands.
Looking as if it's almost about to disappear,
such a tiny fragile glow.
-Eighth night-

Hardsubs:
Wear jerseys in front of your boyfriend?
Sounds good.
You think so?
But- you're going to hold canned beer in one hand, chew snacks and spread down on the floor- right?
Yes.
I can't do it.
[Note: The image of "obachan" is usually even less elegant than "obasan"]
That's an obachan. Right?
[Note: ossan = rude way to call a middle-aged man]
More like ossan.
You're doing it on purpose, right?
Huh?
It's a great idea if you're doing on purpose so he'll hate you.
I see. You want to break up with him!
Really?
Um.
Men are romantic creatures.
Do you think they will whisper love to a woman spread out in jerseys?
Yuuka-san, could you spare a moment?
Sure.
You're going to exhibit in the Furniture Award?
The next exhibition is in Hong Kong.
I heard the judges are strict.
That's why I wanted to try out.
I drew some sketches- what do you think?
I think Hotaru-san is better fit to
I want to keep it a secret from her.
I want to surprise her after I achieve it.
I see.
I understand.
Amemiya, you come too.
Huh?
Ochuugen from the boss.
[Note: occhugen = a present people send each other during the summer]
Manager is always good enough to have us do a lottery on it.
-Gootokuji never fails to lose out on the lottery.
-You can shut up!
What kind of ochuugen is it?
Watching fireworks from a helicopter.
What?
Just choose one.
Here, the design team too!
I hate using up my luck on these stuff
-Then I'll go first!
-Hey, you-
Yuuka-chan too! Teshima too, quick!
Right there!
This woman- just as I thought.
Fireworks from a helicopter?
It's so different from her usual life that she can't even imagine what it's about.
I don't have a license. For a helicopter, I mean.
You're not driving. You're boarding it as a passenger.
Riding a helicopter, watching the Tokyo sights, and watch the evening sky.
You can watch the fireworks, not from below but above.
Fireworks can be seen from above?!
-Such a fabulous ticket came into my possession?
-I gave it to you on purpose.
Huh?
There are two tickets. Enjoy yourself with him.
Manager- it's like a dream!
With the dream, I'm giving you a bonus gift.
What is it?
That night, we have patrolling with the town meeting.
You go instead of me.
The fireworks end at 8:30.
Come back by 9. Be sure to do it.
Manager.
You did something this complex only so you can get away from patrolling duty?
I told you, I have work that day.
I thought you were doing both?
Both are impossible.
Sigh. He can only do one thing at a time.
You dare to talk.
It's okay. I was planning on doing it anyway.
Liar.
I'll go call Makoto-kun.
You'll come tonight, right?
To what?
To watch the fireworks.
I've prepared special seats especially for you.
Really?
Then I'll e-mail you.
I'll wait for it.
Will you wait for me too, Kaname-san?
Why don't we go together?
Who's this?
Again?
Hiya!
I'm waiting for Yuuka here as well.
Oh, I see.
Seems like all's well with Teshima.
I'm sorry.
Don't apologize.
But to tell the truth, why is it you, not Yuuka?
I'm sorry.
And Yuuka too.
Why Teshima, and not me?
She said I'm not it for her.
But- you're going to the fireworks together.
She must feel bad about being cold towards me, and trying hard to accept me.
She's just too generous.
Kaname-san
Late!
I'm sorry!
You can treat me some juice.
Hotaru-san!
I think Makoto-kun is still at work. Why don't you try calling?
I'm sorry!
I forgot!
He forgot me
I'll still be on time, right? I'll be right there.
Okay.
Makoto-kun forgot
Which is more important, me or work?
Bad me!
I'm the one who forgot our first date all because of beer and now
Sorry!
Makoto-kun, what were you
I'm glad you made it.
I'm sorry.
Let's go.
Thank you.
Beautiful!
Amazing, amazing!
That was so beautiful!
Whew, so gorgeous!
What, you didn't go watch it?
I'm not young anymore.
Age doesn't matter.
I have to finish my report by today.
Oh.
I'm sorry for saying all that the other day.
Saying you should stop living with Amemiya.
-If you
-You were right.
I'm planning to stop cohabitating.
I'm going to leave the place.
YOU'RE moving out?
She borrowed it from my dad in the first place.
I'm the one who intruded in her life.
Is it okay like that?
About what?
With Amemiya
Told you, there's nothing with her.
You could've left a long time ago.
But instead, you lived with her all this time so,
judging from your character
Is it just my imagination?
It was enjoyable.
Being with Amemiya never fails to be enjoyable.
This summer- was good.
Just that.
It was great! So marvelous, wasn't it?
Yeah.
Um, I have to
Hm?
I'm told to return by 9.
Otaka-san said so?
Yes. Otaka-san said so.
I wanted to have dinner with you.
I wanted to have dinner too- before the fireworks started.
You could've told me.
That was because Makoto-kun came late.
So it was my fault?
Not really, but-
What are you doing after 9?
What were YOU doing before this? Were you at the office?
I'm sorry. I have to go.
Wait.
Let's live together.
Huh?!
I want us to be together always, without worrying about Otaka-san and the time.
Together?
Yes.
Always together?
Yes.
Can this be a proposal?
Let's-
Let's-?
Live together.
Sure! I'd be happy to!
That's what I said
but am I good enough for you?
Go home quickly!
Am I good enough for you?
Makoto-kun
Good morning.
What's this?
Your breakfast.
Huh? Don't tell me there's another bonus present?
My thanks for doing the patrolling instead.
Eat.
Ah. Thank you.
So, how were the fireworks?
Thanks to you, it was a dream-like experience.
Good for you.
However things turned bad about my having to return by 9
I already apologized.
And thanks to it turning out bad
We're going to live together.
What?!
The time has come for me to show my normal life style.
Will he accept me?
Weren't you going to believe him?
You're the one who said we need to have faith in him?
Yes.
Itadakimasu!
The rice is going bad.
It's millet. Healthy.
Oh.
How about this?
For the one accepting everything about me, there's going to be a perfect bonus present.
What kind?
You.
Living with me, manager will tag along and make delicious meals for me and tidy the room
Never in my life!
It's just a joke! Where are you taking that?
[Note: He says it naggingly, like a pre-school kid.]
Gonna give it to kitty.
Wait! Please forgive me!
Let go of me!
I said it was a joke
Kitty.
So you failed your firework date?
There was a new building, and it completely blocked the view.
What's that?
It went alright last year with my old girlfriend.
Tadokoro-kun, you made a mistake.
[Bastard!]
Makoto-kun!
He's still attending the meeting.
What is it, Yuuka-san?
Can you give me a second?
The number of works you can exhibit has been changed to two. Do you have the other one?
Oh, this one?
Hmm. Maybe this is better.
Sawaki-kun.
Do you want to have lunch with me today?
Fine.
What about Teshima-kun, too?
It's okay.
What designs? Could I take a look?
Hm- good.
Then I'll go take pictures.
No- I've got to have faith in him.
I need to have faith in Makoto-kun.
Makoto-kun is probably okay.
I'm good enough for him.
I'm good enough for him.
I'm good enough for him.
He'll accept me just the way I am.
[ Can we meet now? Just a bit.v Hotaru v ]
[ Sorry. I can't see you today. Still at work Makoto ]
Um, hello?
Hello?
Yuuka-san, where are you now? Office? Are you alone?
What's the matter, Hotaru-san?
I'm on the way to my flower arrangement class.
Oh- I'm sorry. Sorry for the call.
Sorry. Excuse me.
[Saegusa Yuuka]
Hello.
Did you think I was with Makoto-kun?
Don't worry. Our conversations are only about work.
Strange for me to say, but Makoto-kun can think only about you.
He sees only you.
That's why I gave up.
Cheer up.
Bye.
I wonder why
Why, after starting to date, do new characteristics appear-
such as jealousy, restriction and mistrust?
They appeared inside you too?
Yes, and they're making me an even worse woman.
Don't worry. You're bad enough already.
But maybe he won't accept me like this.
Maybe I should reconsider living with him
Where's the happy-go-lucky you who thinks everything the way you want?
I'm so tired of everything.
You probably just can't be bothered. Like always.
Then don't get involved too deeply.
Huh?
Just have a shallow relationship.
But- living together doesn't allow those things
There are plenty of people who don't get involved enough even if they're living together.
Too busy about work, you can stop caring about the other's feelings.
Even if there are fewer conversations, you can pretend everything's going to be fine.
Reject lunch because of a meeting with a customer.
If you want to be like me, that is.
Manager-
You're not afraid of showing yourself in jerseys drinking beer.
You're scared of being that deeply involved with the person you like.
Because you're scared, you want to give it up as troublesome.
People going out has always been a tough thing.
Will you fall in love with someone again?
Will you be deeply involved with that person,
so that it won't turn out like that again?
Yes. I will treasure the time I have with her.
I'll say everything I want to say, see all the bad things about her,
but have fun all the time.
That is, if I fall in love some day.
Manager.
You've really grown up.
Before I realized it, you've climbed one step up the maturity stairs.
The one who needs to grow up is you.
Oh.
Your life style is already dried up, but what will you do if your heart becomes dried up too?
Right.
Hello?
I was going to call you too.
I finally finished my stuff for the Furniture Award.
What?
I was actually planning on keeping it a secret till I passed the judges,
but now I'm so over-enjoyed that I wanted to tell you first thing.
Makoto-kun.
I asked Yuuka-san for advice too.
So that was it.
Have you considered living with me?
Living together, you'll definitely see all my bad aspects.
I might also see a bad side of you.
But I want to be involved with you, bad aspect and all
I want to accept everything about you
Yes.
So-
So, I want you to listen.
I-
I-
always-
wear jerseys.
Huh?
You told Teshima?
What and how did you tell him?
Almost about everything except for living with you.
Sleeping under a newspaper
Why did you have to tell him THAT?
You could've tried to get him accept little by little.
There was no need to say everything all in one go.
Why did you throw in a bomb of your own accord?
I just wanted to have faith in him.
So, what did he say?
"I want some time to think it over"
"I'll call again."
It's okay.
He's the guy I fell in love with.
I want to believe him.
Morning.
Good morning.
Eat more
Amemiya.
[Teshima Makoto]
Sorry-
for calling you out so suddenly.
I tried really hard, but I failed.
I'm sorry.
What do you think of this room?
What do you mean?
Our room.
Huh?
The room we're going to live in together.
Huh?
Um what about what I said,
Wearing jerseys
Oh. I have two older sisters. They always relax at home in jerseys.
But-
Oh, well, I was a bit surprised about the newspaper, though.
Then what about giving you some more time?
I was looking for a house.
You wanted to lie on the porch with a canned beer, right?
I wanted to find you a perfect porch.
I'm sorry I couldn't find one.
That's okay.
It really doesn't matter.
Thank you.
Makoto-kun Thank you!
If it has you
If it has you
That's my porch!
Manager!
Manager, Manager!
Makoto-kun accepted me!
Huh?
Bravo!
You're kidding!
No, really!
It was okay?
It was okay!
Bravo! Bravo!
Hooray! Hooray!
I won't see you anymore.
But why?
After Yamada-neesan's encouragement, you've gotten quite cheerful.
My part is done.
Kaname-san
I understand.
Love isn't something you can achieve by effort.
It's alright. Thanks for everything.
Really.
I never thought I'd be called out by someone in the accounting department.
One beer please.
Me too, I never thought I'd be drinking with a woman like you.
I'll say this beforehand- I dislike your type the most.
Really.
So? What do you want to consult me about?
Work related? Love related?
Manager related.
So, when are you living with him?
As soon as we pay for the deposit for the room.
You'll need at least half a year to pack.
Otaka-san will help me.
Leave all the electronic goods.
But the microwave oven is mine.
I'll receive it as a gift.
Then can I take this wind-bell with me?
I thought there wasn't a porch at your place?
I don't want to forget my life here.
Summer will soon be over
Yes.
This summer was hot.
[Note: An expression used in various situations to encourage people, etc. Used here almost like a greeting.]
Otsukare-sama desu.
Otsukare-sama desu.
Excuse me for urging you.
Everyone's here?
All men.
They really don't know how to spend their days off.
Yikes!
Jerseys
Never mind, it's just over there.
I'm sorry, I brought it home.
Thank you.
Excuse me.
Huh?!
We'll be heading home now.
Otsukare-sama.
All that's left is taking the pictures again.
Yes.
This is the Business department.
This voice- is it manager?
What?
It's me. Ahomiya.
I know that. What is it?
I lost my keys.
You came for it?
Lucky for you the office is close-
Don't tell me
I'm in jerseys, but is it fine if I go upstairs?
No way!
There are others!
Your Teshima too.
But he already-
Just because he accepted, this is workplace, not home.
Move to a different place.
Huh?
Just hurry and move!
Oh, okay.
Hey, let's grab something to eat
That woman- she doesn't even have a cell phone with her.
She's got nothing but her clothes on her.
Please excuse me first.
-Otsukare.
-Otsukare.
Teshima.
You forgot this.
It's yours, right?
Huh?
It's not mine.
Oh. See you.
Please excuse me.
What's the matter?
Oh, nothing.
Excuse me.
Oh. Otsukare.
Manager.
Hard work on your part.
You dare say that.
I'm sorry.
You left with only the keys?
I went to return the patrolling goods.
I thought it would be okay, since it's in the neighborhood.
That kind of carelessness causes death.
What?
Come on!
What's with those clothes?
Huh?
Thank you.
What? Why?
It doesn't match.
Doesn't match?
My sense of fashion doesn't allow jerseys with jacket.
Why? I think it's fine!
You can just wear newspapers on the road.
Huh?!
Huh?!
HUH?!
Shut up.
Stop following me, just go home.
But the keys
Then just wait here. I'll bring my bag.
I'll go with you.
You don't want to take any more risks.
Just wait here.
Shoot.
Hotaru-san.
Makoto-kun.
Let's live together.
I want to be with you always.
Let's live together.
Teshima-san, good morning.
He doesn't even want to look at her.
Looks like he turned her down.
Absent without message-
Thanks for watching with us!
See you next time!
