"I warn you." "Keep you hands off her." "She's my daughter-in-law." "Your daughter-in-law?" "She's married?" "She's my son's wife." "She's not for you outsiders." "Don't hang around here." "Leave at once." "Is that so?" "I misjudged her." "She acts so virginal." "The flowers cost 30 dollars." "This was 20." "This purple slipper was special order for 50 dollars." "That's why girls nowadays can't be trusted." "A hussy with a face like that?" "Fumi's not married." "She's a virgin." "What?" "It's that man's wishful thinking." "When his missing son comes back, he wants her to be his bride." "Missing son?" "That's right." "Fumi's originally from Kyushu." "She's never even set eyes on Ryuji." "So why would she marry him?" "That old geezer!" "Hey, you." "You liar." "She's no married woman." "What are you talking about?" "I hear your son was in prison for a year." "Who told you?" "Fumi who's pure and innocent can't many your yakuza son who's been missing for six years." "He's not missing." "He has a proper job." "Someone told me." "You can't trust rumors." "Someone said he was in Miyazaki, someone saw him in Okinoerabu..." "I hear you went to Hokkaido last year hearing he was a sailor on the Shakotan Peninsula." "All rumors." "They're not rumors." "The next news..." "You selfish bastard." "Wanting Fumi for his bride." "Give up." "No, there's no one else for my son." "This comb... has memories for you and Pa." "What are they?" "Uncle next door said this time it's real." "He's in Hanno in Saitama, so this time he's going to find Ryuji." "He's very hopeful." "I've talked to Fumiko." "About my son when he was little, and when he was older, so she knows everything." "But it's just talk..." "Girls these days don't wait for guys." "He'll be back." "I know he'll be found." "Even if he is... you don't know if Fumiko will fell in love with him." "Of course she will." "My son will fall in love with Fumiko, too." "They'll make a good couple." "Ma?" "What's Ryuji like?" "According to Uncle, he's manly, cheerful, audacious but sensitive." "Uncle's a doting parent." "But..." "I wonder what Ryuji's really like." "I only have photos of him when he was little." "Whoa, he's a misbegotten son-of-a-bitch." "Doesn't he have any distinctive characteristics?" "He has a dog bite on his shoulder." "A dog bite?" "All right, leave it to me." "I'll find him." "But it's a guess whether Fumiko will like him..." "The way he looks." "He's better than you." "KACHO PLAIN" "This is First Star." "Jonathan, come in." "This is Jonathan Lady, over." "Do you have enough gas?" "Yes, full tank, over." "How far do you want to go?" "Namu Daishi, henjo ko go." "Toilet go go?" "That's right." "Please." "So, toilet." "You want to go?" "Yes." "There's no toilet in these woods." "Which is it?" "Dai (two) or sho (one)?" " Dai?" " Dai..." "Dainichiji (Dainichi temple)." "That's it." "Dainichiji." "Please." "Dai, huh?" "Shit." "Dai..." "Dainichiji Temple." "Oh, the temple." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Hey, there's no paper in the temple's toilet." "No paper." " Bye." " Bye." "Hello." "Hello, Auntie." "Can't be helped." "Maybe they don't understand English." "Hey!" "Hey, there." "Momo!" "Enough already." "I'm going to leave you here." "Let's go together." "I'll be back." "Hey." "I brought you some paper." "Henjo ko go." "Namu Daishi, henjo ko go..." " Hey..." " May I have some paper?" "Sure." "It's Kleenex." "0h!" "Oh." "Yuka." "The singer Yuka Onogawa." "I'm Hoshi, Musashino Music school graduate." "You remembered my name." "May I?" "How many do you usually use?" " One." " One?" "Thanks." "Hold this." "Thank you." "Every time I come to Shikoku to work, since I have free time during the day," "I do a pilgrimage of the shrines." "I see." "I promised to go hear you sing and I've felt bad I haven't been able to." "I only have three more shrines to go." "When I finish, I know my wish will come true." "What is your wish?" "Oh, let's ask her." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Can you sing Goeika song?" "What?" "Goeika song." "Goeika, song." "Oh, I know." "Yuka, for international goodwill sing a song." "Please." "Get up, get up." "Get up." "Hurry up and get up." "You'll be late for school." "Pa, don't worry about us." "While Ma works, we're all pulling together." "We each have our chores." "So, Pa, just think about getting better." "Hanako." "Konosuke." "Kosaburo." "Koshiro." "Michiko, Saiko." "I can't stay in bed." "I'm the breadwinner of the family." "I have to go." "Damn these eyes!" "Got it." "Damn it!" "TAKASHIMADAIRA DISTRIBUTION CENTER, TOKYO" "Kimie." "Give me some water." "Oh, Tosa Dog." "Hey, you." "How dare you sic your dog on me!" "Bastard." "What?" "Wait a second." "Are you Ryuji Kakiuchi?" "How do you know my name?" "I see." "You undutiful son." "Your pa in Kochi is worried about you." "Go home." "None of your business." "I was born in Usuki Kyushu." "But my pa was from these parts." "Maybe he was homesick." "He always sang the Nangoku Tosa song." "How nostalgic." "Pa was a pole fisherman." "He met Ma at Usuki Harbor." "That's when the song was popular." "So it's their song." "Pa died in a storm at sea, so we came here to to be near his relatives." "Ryuji was gone by then." "I warn you." "Don't listen to that stubborn old geezer." "Don't throw your life away." "There are many men in this world including me." "Even if there were, I can't marry." "Why not?" "I can't marry with a sick mother." "There's always a way." "Men don't understand." "She's bedridden and can't even talk." "Sometimes I think we should just die." "I would do anything." "I mean, for example..." "I can't many." "But if Ryuji comes back?" " He won't." " You never know." "He hasn't made contact in six years." "Why would he now?" "If he wanted to return, he would have already." "He won't." "Ryuji won't." "But his Pa next door and I keep waiting." "Why?" "Whv Wait?" "We keep waiting." "We'll wait forever." "And eventually I'll be an old spinster and no one would give me a second glance." "Fumiko, don't say that." "I can't marry." "Not with anyone." "Fumiko." "Fumiko." "Fumiko, come quick." "I stopped by your house and your mother..." "Ma?" "Ma?" " Auntie?" " Ma?" "Are you all right?" "Are you all right?" "I'll call a doctor." "What?" "What's the matter?" "What is it?" "What do you want me to do?" "That record?" "You want to hear it?" "Just a minute." "I'll play the Nangoku Tosa song now." "It's broken." "It's smashed." "Ma..." "The record is broken." "I'm sorry." "Wait." "I'm going to bring the best singer in Japan." "Yuka." "Yuka someone wants to hear your song." "Leave these drunks behind and come with me." "Hey, she still has a show to do." "Yuka has a date with our boss." "She's here." "The best singer in Japan." "Mother." "She'll sing your favorite song." "Please." "Now sing." "But..." "I..." "I never sang in a place like this before." "Idiot." "You call yourself a pro?" "You won't sing unless there's a band and lights?" "Is that the kind of singer you want to be?" "A true singer is one who can sing from her heart at a time like this." "All right, Momojiro." "I'll sing." "If my song will do, please listen." ""Leaving Tosa behind..." ""I've lived in the city for a long time." ""I remember that the friends at home" ""sang the Yosakoi Song when I left." ""At Tosa's Kochi's Harimaya Bridge" ""I saw a priest buy a hair ornament." ""Yosakoi, Yosakoi..." ""On a moonlit beach sitting around a campfire," ""we relaxed and had some time to enjoy." ""I too, sang out loud" ""the Yosakoi Song of Tosa."" "Ma!" "Ma?" " Ma." " Sing."

""Don't tell anyone in our pond" ""swims a fish spouting sea water." ""Yosakoi, Yosakoi."" "Ma..." "Ma!" "I'm sorry." "I bet you can't go back to that cabaret." "It's all right, Momojiro." "I found out how wonderful it is to sing to a single audience." "A single audience?" "That it's more important and wonderful than singing to a roomful of people." "That's the real spirit of singing." "But they're cheap to put you in a place." "This is better than nothing." "Sometimes they make me sleep in the dressing roon1." "I see." "Being on the road isn't easy." "In addition, you have to fight off those lechers." "But if I make them angry, I won't be able to sing here." "For them, a singer on the road is nothing." "That's awful." "They're taking advantage." "I'll beat them up." "I'm okay, Momojiro." "I've been on the road long time." "I see." "But you want to continue?" "Yes, because this is what I aspired to." "But I find I'm drinking more and more." "The rain won't let up." "Yuka." "Where are you from?" "Even in my profession, money s everrything." "Yuka." "Shinobu." "You're so drunk." "They made a fool of me." "I went to the store they told me to, and it was closed." "Oh, no!" "I complained to the agency and he said he'll do better next time and made me go to a hotel with him." "No!" "Who was it?" "Iwase." "You're working at a cabaret he controls." "Be careful." "I hate this." "It's so lonely." "I'm mortified and so alone..." "Can I sleep here tonight?" "Sure, Shinobu." "Am I going to end up like her?" "No..." "I'm so tired." "I'm really tired." "It's a difficult life." "Momojiro?" "To tell you the truth, sometime I think about quitting." "Quitting?" "And give up your dream?" "And just become a regular housewife." "I think a lot about that recently." "A regular housewife?" "Yuka." "Thank you." "I didn't know." "You're leaving early tomorrow morning?" "I'll come pick you up first thing." "That means I'll have to hustle." "Ma?" "Go be with Pa." "Darling!" "Kimie." "Darling!" "I broke the light." "I'm sorry." "Why?" "Kimie." "It's because you're such a good wife." "Don't say that." "It's only natural that a trucker's wife drives his rig when he's sick." "Kimie." "I'm so thankful." "It's all right." "You're making me cry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Are you well now?" "Test results today show it wasn't a stroke, it was brain spasm." "Brain spasm?" "It was transitory so the double vision was temporary." "Then you can see my beautiful face again?" "Kimie." "You're beautiful." "You're a beautiful woman." "Here's to Jonathan's full recovery from brain spasm." "Cheers!" "Glad you can see again." "Thank you for everything." "We're so appreciative." "Momo, are you really going to stay in Tosa?" "Yeah." "I can't leave." "Two women are counting on me." "Momo, I won't steer you wrong." "Come home and go to your favorite soapland and think this over." "She's right." "You're obsessed." "Fools!" "It's the women who want me." "Two women are hopelessly in love with me." "You won't understand how hard it is to be in a love triangle." "This is serious." "Oh, the travails of a popular man." "Be good to one, disappoint the other." "Be good to the other and the other will cry." "Either way someone's going to get hurt." "But I have to decide." "Yuka..." "Fumiko..." "Yuka..." "Fumiko..." "Yuka." "Fumiko." "KOCHI CASTLE" "Brother..." "I'm coming, too." "What do you want?" "I..." "Do you live in that house?" "Yes." "Is the man next door well?" "Yes, he goes fishing every day." "So he's out fishing now?" "Yes." "You're Ryuji, aren't you?" "Yes, it must be you." "How do you know my name?" "What's the matter?" "Why didn't you come back earlier?" "Why didn't you write?" "Six years ago, I had a dog, a Tosa breed." "It was full of fight and I adored that dog." "He was scheduled to fight for the grand championship of the Kochi Dog Sumo Championship." "The opponent dog was owned by Iwase, who owned Kochi's bars and cabarets." "Long story short, my dog lost." "He was mauled to death." "They found poison in his system." "A guard saw one of Iwase's men enter the dog house the night before." "But there was no proof." "I totally lost it." "I'm glad you told me about it." "You show up with that disgraceful rig and a dog." "You're still dog fighting?" "I'll never forget." "I didn't come to Kochi to see you." "What?" "I came to settle the score for the dog fight six years ago." "Forget it." "You've already had a bad experience with dogs." "I told you not to get involved with dogs anymore." "I can't." "Until I square that match, I can't move on." "I want a rematch." "You undutiful son." "Get out." "Unless you stop with the dog fighting," "I won't let you enter my house." "Leave, you stupid son." "Uncle, stop." "Stop." "Leave." "Get out." " Go!" " Uncle, stop." "Please." "Stop." "I'll never come here again." "Uncle." "Now that he's finally back..." "How could you!" "How could you!" "I have no use for that good-for-nothing." "Go wherever you want." "He's not my son anymore." "Momojiro." "Momojiro?" "Momojiro?" "Oh, Yuka." "I'm happy you came." "Thank you." "I have a present for you." ""Fourth Graduating Class Musashino Music School" ""Momojiro Hoshi"" "Please sit down." "I want you to sing my song."

"You know you have no right to complain." "Think about it." "I'm sorry." "There are plenty of itinerant singers." "If one or two of them disappear..." "It's no big deal." "Yuka, leave them." "What?" "It's no big deal if one or two disappear?" "Us truckers are also on the road." "We won't disappear so easily." "Momojiro." "I got this." "Something smells." "You're rotten to the core." "Hey, how dare you." "Don't touch me." "Stop." "Where's Iwase?" "Have you forgotten me?" "Hey, Tosa Dog." "When did you come to Kochi?" "Oh, what are you doing here?" "Ryuji." "What brings you here?"

"Hey." "I was in this fight first." "Don't interfere." "Stay out of this." "What was that for?" "How dare you?" "Hey, that man is my sworn enemy." "Don't you interfere." "All right." "Interesting." "I'll settle with you first." "Now, round two." "Stop!" "Please stop." "Fool!" "Slop!" "Please stop." "Momojiro, please stop." "I won't be able to sing any more." "Yuka." "I've stopped." "I'm sorry." "Hey, Tosa Dog." "How many time did I say let's stop?" "You caused trouble for Yuka." "Damn you." "That's not how it was." "Tosa Dog!" "You win the dog fight tomol1'ow."

"So now, you have no regrets?" "Yes." "I can finally go back to my old self." "Ryuji?" "Please don't leave anymore." "Fumiko." "Are you sure?" "You'll take a man like me?" "No, don't." "Momo!"

"What about Osaka?" "Never mind." "It's fine, Shinobu." "It's your big chance." "Chance?" "You insensitive lout." "Didn't I tell you?" "A big chance has come her way." "She's going to sing on the stage at Umeda Theater." "What?" "I made up my mind." "I'm going to be an ordinary housewife." "Are you serious?" "Yes." "I'm going to cook for him every day and live an uneventful life." "Are you out of your mind?" "What do you think all this hardship was for?" "You endured because there was hope." "And you're throwing it away for a trucker?" "It's fine." "Leave me alone." "I'm saying it because I can't." "It's not just about you." "The dreams of all the itinerant singers are riding with you." "If you quit, all our dreams will vanish." "But it's too late." "Even if I take the limited express, it's three and a half hours to Takamatsu." "Yuka..." "Leave me alone." "I'm going to be his wife." "You said your wish had been granted." "What was your wish?" "Don't lie to me." "Tell me the truth." "My dream... was to be a recording artist and sing in the spotlight." "All right." "Then go." "Momojiro." "Go to Osaka." "Or you'll regret it the rest of your life." "But it's too late now." "If I don't get on the noon ferry from Takamatsu," "I won't get there in time." "There's still two and a half hours." " I won't make it." " Come." "But, I'm going to be your wife." "Shut up." "If you want to be my wife, listen to your husband." "Please." "Stop the truck, Momojiro." "I don't care about being a singer." "I want to be your wife." "Fool!" "Just think about singing." "Stop." "That's an order." "Tosa Dog." "I owe you one." "Momo." "There's a speed trap at the next junction." "Roger that." "I can't do it alone." "Let me." "You can't handle it." "I want to try." "All right." "Try." "Okay, give it some gas." "Just a bit more." "Try harder." "If we can't get free, you won't be able to sing." "Takamatsu Station" "We made it." "Go." "Get on the boat." "Momojiro." "When your record comes out, I'll buy thousands of them." "So become a great singer." "Thank you." "I'll never forget you." "Hurry and go" "Momojiro, I can't." "I can't go." "Momojiro." "Open up." "I don't want to go." "Momojiro." "I want to be your wife." "It's true." "Open up." "Stop bothering me." "You're not the only one who's in love with me." "There are lots of others." "Like the stars in the sky." "Momojiro..." "Miss." "Are you coming?" "Or not?" "The boat is sailing." "Even on city streets where colorful neon flowers bloom, there are small flowers that bloom quietly without being noticed." "A single flower of the song world we are about to introduce did not succumb to the summer sun nor the cold winter wind and is about to bloom large on this stage." "Her name is Yuka Onagawa." "She's finally saying goodbye to her long itinerant life to sing on this stage." "Let me introduce Miss Yuka Onogawa." "Congratulations, Yuka." "Thank you." "Please say hello to the audience." "I am so happy to be given an opportunity to sing on this stage." "I am full of gratitude for all of you." "I've worked hard to become a first-class singer." "But until I met a certain person." "I didn't know anything about singing." "At this, my new beginning, there is a song I must sing." "I will sing for the person." "Who taught me the real meaning of singing and the song that taught me the real meaning of singing." "Could I please sing the Nangoku Tosa song for you?" ""Leaving Tosa behind..." ""I've lived in the city for a long time now." ""I remember that the friends at home" ""sang the Yosakoi Song when I left." ""At Tosa's Kochi's Harimaya Bridge" ""I saw a priest buy a hair ornament." ""On a moonlit beach sitting around a campfire." ""We relax and have some time to enjoy." ""I, too, sing out loud" ""the Yosakoi Song of Tosa." ""I'll show you, the best place in Urato" ""for moon watching is Katsura hama." ""My father back home caught a whale" ""off shore of Muroto he said in a letter." ""After I do my best all clay," ""I'll sing Tosa's Yosakoi song." ""Don't tell anyone in our pond" ""swims a fish spouting sea water." ""Yosakoi, Yosakoi."" ""A man always travels alone..."" ""A woman's path always heads home..."" ""Although the roads are never the same..."" ""Love brings them together at the crossroad."" ""Ah..." ""The first star in the sky" ""knows how I really feel.""
