"Lately, he didn't see the scenery..." "...there was a phone box..." "...it's not like it disappeared..." "previously, the city's..." "...a phone box..." "...there was a line of people..." "Lately, he didn't see the scenery..." "...there was a phone box..." "...it's not like it disappeared..." "previously, the city's..." "...a phone box..." "...there was a line of people..." "Spontaneity Shrine Publishing" " Editorial Department, Sakai" "Subtitle by Aldi Arman" " You..." " Hmm?" "Is there a woman you can't forget?" "Yeah..." "I think there is." "I see." " Huh, why?" " Hm?" "I also have one." "There's a woman..." "I always remember when it rains." "Oh?" "I wonder how she's doing." "How I met her is simple." "It was at a drinking party, it was supposed to be nothing but a one-night stand." "That was your specialty, wasn't it?" "Shut up." " So what?" " Hmm?" "Ah, and then on the next morning... we just talked a bit... and I told an excuse to get rid of her." "I told her to stay... until the rain ends." "The woman of the Downpour" "Why don't you stay until the rain ends?" "I don't have an umbrella anyway... so I'll do that." "Sorry, the same again, please." "Yes!" "Thank you." "Uwah, what a downpour!" "Hurry and come out!" " Bye then." " Yeah, you worked hard!" "You too." "Gochoume City Apartments" "Welcome home." "Did you eat something?" "I haven't eaten anything." "Why?" "You ask why?" "I was waiting for you to come back." "Those... suggestive words... wrenched my heart." "I'm eating in the restaurant, so don't wait and instead buy something in a supermarket." "Yeah." "See you!" "Welcome home." "I'm home." "It can't be... you haven't eaten anything again?" "Yeah." "Hamburger Lunch Box" "Welcome." "It is 580 yen." "Thank you." "You... aren't working anywhere?" "Hmm." "You know, it's probably different from what you're imagining." "What do you mean?" "I'm not imagining anything." "I know you're thinking I'm a prostitute or something." "Huh?" "Are you?" "I'm telling you I'm not!" "I'm not that easy to understand." "You are." "You sleep, eat, have sex and sleep again..." "A human like you... can be explained in three seconds." "Three seconds." "Why are you laughing?" "She was really a woman that didn't do anything." "Not to mention cooking or laundry... she didn't even empty the ashtray... which had become clouded... with ashes." "PEACH!" "Since the shape of an upside-down heart... with one point is unstable..." "I'll turn it around right away... and give it back to you." "PEACH!" "For the shape of an upside-down heart... a lot of power... is needed so I'll give my best." "Because I'll love you." "Okay, now I'll join you!" "You're late!" "What about you?" "I won't sing." "That is mine..." "Bye bye to depression," "Shall we go somewhere?" "I don't have time for that." "Where?" "Hmm... where do you want to go?" "It'd be a waste." "Hello?" "Ah, it's me." "I'm hungry." "Go and buy something yourself." "I won't come home today." "Then it's alright, I'll endure it." "I'll hang up now." "Hey!" "Why do you endure it?" "!" "You're not a kid... so go and buy something yourself!" "Yeah." "Bye." "You got it?" "Go and buy something yourself!" "Did you say something?" "Huh?" "No, nothing." "Sorry," "I'll leave after all." "What?" "Why?" "Bye!" "Eh, why are you leaving?" "Hamburger Lunch Box" "It is 1160 yen." "Thank you." "It cleared up." "Though I'm finally back..." "Oh?" "You came back." "Yeah." "By the way, your mother called earlier." "My mother?" "Yes, she's a cheerful person somehow, isn't she?" "We spoke about thirty minutes." "You spoke... about what?" "About me." "You didn't tell her... anything strange, did you?" "If I weren't a strange woman." "On that day as well I came home... with a hamburger lunch box for that woman." "It was at that time." "It was a really sudden idea." "Tonight... if I didn't come home with a lunch box... would she really... not eat anything until tomorrow?" "I wanted to confirm it." "You... didn't eat anything yesterday?" "The next few days..." "I tested her again." "This time..." "I didn't go home for two days." "I was too hungry..." "I couldn't sleep." "Somehow..." "I was happy." "The woman in front of me... who was indulged into her croquet bread... shined brighter than any other woman... of this world to me." "Several days later." "I tested her again." "One day, two days..." "I stayed in the restaurant as always, and didn't go home even on the third evening." "I had a groundless confidence." "That no matter how hungry she might be... she'd definitely... wait for me to come home." "Hey!" "Heey!" "I expected too much..." "Who she was..." "I found out... quite a while later from my mother who called." "Yes, hello?" "Hello, it's mum." "Ah, good morning." "It's not good morning!" "You haven't called me at all lately!" "Sorry, sorry." "By the way, is Yuka-chan fine?" "Yuka?" "Oh, did you break up?" "Although her mother just passed away." "She said she took leave from her work for a while and that you'd let her rest in your room." "I was wondering how she's doing..." "It's a waste that you broke up!" "She was such a nice girl." "Breaking up..." "...nice girl..." "hearing what his mother said..." "Today, one novelist was having a hard time again." "I've finally paid back all my debts." "Really, congrats!" "Yay!" "At that time it was really close for you." "If you had stayed with that women, you'd have been ruined." "But it looks like your work's going well, too, that's good for you." "Because I said I'd pay the money back," "I gave my best at work." "That's why it's a good memory." "What?" "I'd like to know that woman's trick... of making someone like you... so absorbed." "Why?" "Because I'll use it as reference for my future relationships?" "She was... just a normal woman." "Is being drunk like that normal?" "It was certainly an unusual meeting." "Ah, what did you want to say?" "Takuya dumped me." "She said she preferred a public servant... with a safe job over an untalented manga artist." "A more than twenty years older man stole her from me!" "Twenty!" "Ah, I see." "Mari!" "Sorry, sorry." "Cut it out already!" "Sorry." "You shouldn't get drunk here because your boyfriend isn't at home!" "I'm telling you it's okay, it's okay." "And... what did you want to talk about?" "That I can't find a job." "It's a hard life, isn't it?" "You..." "You know what, when my mangas are serialized, I'll use you as an assistant!" "I'm not good at drawing." "Hey, hey!" "Ah, really?" "Hey, hey!" "Yes?" "This restaurant's... roe tempura is good!" "Roe tempura!" "Ah, yes, thanks." "Roe tempura!" "Excuse me," " another beer please." " Yes." " Ah, and roe tempura please." " Yes." "Really?" "!" "Hey, hey, let me join you!" "What?" "!" "No!" "You should leave women like that alone!" "Hey, just a bit." "Ah, hey, what..." "Oww..." " Are you alright?" " Yes." "Okay." "Phew." "Mari," "I'm finished for today, why don't we go home together?" "No, I'm not going home yet, bye bye!" " Please don't let her drink too much, okay?" " Bye bye!" "Do you want to eat?" "Yeah!" "Here." "Here." "Here." " Hey." " Hm?" "A kiss." "Okay." "Move!" "Stop that." "Nearly... right?" "Are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm okay." "It's hot!" "Where was it again?" " Left." " Left?" "Heeey..." "Hey, be careful." "Where do you live?" "There." "Let's go home already!" "Can you lend me some money?" "I don't have any!" "If you don't have money just leave that women alone..." "Just leave her around here somewhere!" "You know..." "I'm going to lend a bit, can you look after Mari-chan for a bit?" "Why do you have such a thing?" "A senior of mine who owes me one is working here... he told me he'd help me until I have a job..." "I used it within my limits." "Don't use things like that!" "If I get the money from my part-time job, I'll repay it immediately." "Ah, sorry!" "Be careful not to get killed." "You really don't want to go home?" "I'll take you in a taxi." "Starting the next day, Mari... began to live with me." "Good Morning." "You're good." "Does it look alike?" "It doesn't." "It does!" "Have you studied art?" "No." "It's here." "It was three days... after we began living together." "Mari said she wanted to go take her stuff from the guy's home..." "I... went with her." "You can come in." "Can I drink this cola?" "Yes." "The apartment looks cheap." "Yeah, but it was comfortable." "How long were you here?" " About one month." " Only?" "We got tired of each other." "Normally it would have lasted three months." "Why did you get tired of each other?" "We had both lots of free time and were always together, that's why." "What is he doing?" "He's in an unsuccessful band." "But lately he started a part-time job and became busy." "I see." "That's him?" "No." "Are you really coming to my room?" "Can't I?" "I'm okay with it..." "Let's get along well." "Yes." "Shall we go?" "Do you like khaki?" "On the way home..." "What about tomatoes?" "I borrowed another 10,000 yen from the money rental in front of the station." "Let's buy these since it's fall." "Here!" "I promised the machine there that I'd pay it back... 158 yen, 88 yen." "As soon as I got my part-time pay." "Cucumber!" "What about this?" "Shall we buy both?" "Yes, both." "Let's buy both." "158 yen, 105 yen, three times 485 yen, two times 380 yen," "148 yen, 158 yen, 128 yen," "245 yen." "Thank you." "5250 yen please." "Anyway, living with Mari was fun." "Just by being together..." "I was happy." "Mari didn't mention it... but I... didn't do anything for her." "Look." "Wouldn't this suit you?" "You think so?" " Is it cute?" " Yeah." "It suits you after all." "Thank you." "Subtitle by Aldi Arman" "How much is left since the last time?" "Well, about 20,000." "Here." "Is it good?" "Check the postbox." "I didn't... want to live in special luxury." "But when I realized it..." "I had already borrowed 500,000 yen." "I'm home!" "I've bought something, let's eat." "What kind of lunch box is this?" "It's a deluxe lunch box." "Don't use so much money on that!" "Sorry." "Sorry." "I got hasty because I can't get a job." "I also quit my part-time job." "Let's eat, it'll get cold." "Okay." "Shall we go in here?" "Yeah." "Yes, this is Ando speaking." "Yes." "Yes." "Yes!" "Ah, I understand." "Yes, ah, let's work together." "Yes." " Could it be...?" " I passed!" "Yaaaay!" "You did it!" "I was accepted!" "You made it!" "I made it!" "Yaay!" "A short time... after I started work..." "I had to go to Tokorozawa... for an initial training." "It was an important work to find out... if I'd be officially accepted as an employee." "Hey Ando, we're going for drinks now." "Ah, yes." "Okay." "On the fourth evening... no matter how often I called, Mari didn't pick up." "It's laughable, isn't it?" "That I couldn't even... be away from my girlfriend for three days." "Somehow at that time..." "I was confident that Mari would definitely be there." "But... in the end..." "I went back to work... on the last train." "I felt that if I didn't... take Mari back to be with her..." "I couldn't go back to living a normal life." "Quitting the job I finally got, working short time at my former workplace, lend money again if it's not enough, always by Mari's side." "Self-bankruptcy:" "A process in the court where certain measures are decided on for the debtor to pay back his money, like turning insurances or possessions into money." "If I couldn't pay it back, I'd just have to undergo a self-bankruptcy." "I felt that..." "I would have chosen that lifestyle." "But if Mari... had 100 yen she'd life a 100 yen lifestyle, with one million a one million lifestyle, with 100,000 yen a 100,000 yen lifestyle." "There's no down without an up." "If she were asked which one she preferred... she'd surely answer she didn't care." "That's the kind of woman she was." "In the end, the one... who seriously... fell in love was only me." "Maybe I'll make a manga out of it." "A woman that leads a man to ruin... in short, the woman of ruin!" " Hey!" " Just kidding." "The woman of ruin" "I'm treating." "Thank you." "The Woman of Ruin" "The Woman of Self-Bankruptcy" "Today, one novelist was having a hard time again." "Shindo's late." "His coming too late is inherited." "Another excuse of his is that when he was born it was over the expected date." "Yes, it was." "Hey, do you remember?" "They day we waited for Shindo at the Chitose station?" "Well... the days we've waited for him are too much for me to remember." "But... although summer was over it was hot... so we ate ice cream while waiting for Shindo," "I mean that day." "You like that ice cream?" "There's nothing like this ice cream after all!" "Moreover, Shindo is late!" "His excuse will be... 'being late is hereditary' anyway." "No, his excuse these days is a little different." "How?" "'A member of society... has a lot to do.'" "Acting all high and mighty." "Then shall we university students treat the member of society tonight?" "Let's do that." "He shouldn't look down on students!" "He's late..." "I won, I won!" " Don't lie!" " I got it!" " The front!" " Here!" " The back?" " Here!" " You didn't win." "I never do." "It's always blanks." "I have to say... isn't this station's level a little low?" " It is." " Yeah." "A winner!" "Hey, can you imagine?" "What kind of woman she is?" "What do you mean?" "Shindo isn't coming anyway, shall we follow that woman?" "Whaaat?" "!" "Hey!" "Isn't this a crime?" "Why?" "Is there a law that says you shouldn't follow pretty women?" "I don't know, but what if that woman returns to her home?" "Wouldn't that mean we investigated that?" " It would." " Right?" "Hey!" "Hey, what kind of house could she live in?" "I think she's living in a detached house." "In quite a good house, together with her family." "No, I think she's living alone." "In a mansion with a giant pool." "Shall we bet?" "Hey, that..." "The same ice cream I ate!" "Yeah, man!" "Around here are living people with high salaries, right?" "Ah, that's true." "I got it." "Yeah." "What shall we do?" "Here." "It's here." "This is somehow an unpleasant feeling." "Like we saw something we shouldn't have seen." "A while after that... honestly, I... met that woman again." "Ow, sorry, that hurts!" "Geez." "The moment our eyes met..." "I just couldn't move anymore." "How should I say it..." "Her eyes... had a cold and strange power." "I wanted those eyes to look at me." "I wondered... what would happen if being directly captured by those eyes?" "Excuse me!" "When I came to my senses," "I had called out to her." "Ah, er..." "I'm not trying to pick you up... how should I say it..." "like, if I don't talk to you now I'll regret it..." "Er, I didn't follow you," "I also get off at this station, that's why." "Er, I'm not a suspicious person," "I have my student ID and my license..." "Are you a student?" "Yes." "I am a student at Housei University's department of literature." "It's the first time someone approached me like this." "Er, you look alike!" "To the woman who always appears in my dreams..." "You look so much like her..." "That was the lie which came out at once." "Honestly, I thought it was over." "Which way?" "I have to go this way." "Then, maybe we'll meet somewhere again." "Wait!" "I am working part-time there, if you like..." "Big Thanksgiving party for our customers" "It's in Shimokita." "Yes, when you happen to go there, please visit!" " Please take care of this." " Yes!" "That weekend... she didn't appear at the pub I worked at."
