"Use the division we learnt last time." "How much does the game cost?" "0.7 times, right?" "If you multiply it with 100, you get the full 100%, got it?" "And now 70%!" "70% of the normal price." "What would you normally call something like this?" "Who knows can tell me?" "Me!" "Me!" "Yes!" "Sakai!" "A steal?" ""A steal"!" "How funny!" "You really are the son of a rice-salesman!" "That was fun, but I mean something else." "Who knows a similar word?" "Ah!" "A bargain!" "Right!" "A bargain!" "Yes!" "A bargain!" ""Bargain - 30% off", you see that a lot, don't you?" "Have we got everything?" "Yes!" "Then let's eat!" "Enjoy your meal!" "Let's eat!" "I love bread!" "What are people like who have blood type AB?" " They are inconstant." " Mmh?" "That's not true!" "Shilly-shally?" "One's character has nothing to do with ones blood type!" "So don't think about it!" "Go on eating!" "Yes, Sir!" "You are babbling all the time!" "Eat your lunch!" "You like beans, don't you?" "What's wrong with your eyes, Sensei?" "Oh that ..." "I had a little accident when I was a student." "My eyes became like this then." "But you know, eyes like this can be very useful." "Look!" "Sakai is noisy all the time, isn't he?" "I keep watching him, but I can also keep an eye on Kaiho!" "Ide!" "You did something naughty!" "I'll aways see it!" "Serves you well!" "Stop laughing!" "Just stop it, will you?" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "What are you doing?" "Say "sorry" to Hirota!" "No way!" "Say "sorry"!" "This is nothing to you!" "Of course it is, I am your teacher!" "Stand there!" "People told us not to become teacher "or something like that", right?" "This "something like that" bears all kind of meanings ..." ""Something like a teacher" ..." "Mr Yamaguchi, these days you are always talking like this." "Well ..." "Bye!" "You could just quit being a teacher, you know?" "Bye!" "Bye!" "The new one!" "Tastes like strawberry." "Give me one!" "Tagami?" "Ah, the new boy who came here from Kyushu?" "He is cute, isn't he?" "Is he your boyfriend, Yoko?" "No, we are not together ..." "But he told me he wanted to show me "interesting photos"." "So I went over to his house." "But you know, those photos were really gross!" "What?" "What?" "What do you mean by "gross"?" "Let's go!" "Yeah!" "We are leaving." "Mr Yamaguchi told me about you." "Your father was a teacher too, Mr Minegishi?" "In middle school." "And you went to his class?" "Yeah, I did." "I heard he was very strict?" "Come together." "Time to go!" "Yes!" "Come together!" "We are leaving!" "Come back!" "We are going!" "Come together!" "Tagami!" "Come together!" "Tagami!" "And now here!" "Is it okay?" "Okay!" "Good!" "Done!" "Okay!" "Okay!" "Aaaah, thank you!" "The cap ..." "It fell down." "Thank you!" "I could bring him to a hospice, but ..." "But with his personality ..." "I think he will stay at home until the end." "Yes, he must be complaining to the nurses a lot ..." "It's not about that!" "You know, there was something really touching the other day." "Something touching?" "I went to him this morning, the sedatives were still effective." "He was so sleepy." "And I ..." "I said "Good Morning!" to him." "But he kept his eyes closed." "Then the nurse called me "Sensei!"" "He suddenly replied: "Yes?" "What?"" "I couldn't help laughing then." "But a little bit later I felt that it was really touching." "If you are a "Sensei", you stay one your whole life ..." "It's free!" "You sit!" "But you could!" "You sit!" "Your coat!" "What will we make?" "You must be tired too, so something easy will do." "If you click here, you know about tomorrow's weather." "Take a look!" "And?" "Interesting?" "There are two meanings for "creativity"." "One means that you can "create things"." "The other one that you can "imagine things"." "Anno's alphabet is very impressive, right?" "Two meanings!" "Gross!" "Oh no!" "What's going on?" "Close that!" "Why is it bad to look at corpses?" "You told us to be interested in everything, didn't you?" "Why not corpses then?" "Just stop it!" "Is it okay?" "Sorry, could you ..." "Thanks!" "Hello?" "Yes, where are you?" "We'll be there in a moment!" "Okay!" "Is this okay?" "Yes." "Thank you!" "Close the door!" "I am going first!" "Let him down slowly towards the bed now." "Father is talking about a dazzling light lately." "It's because the tumor in his brain is pushing on the nerves." "So the nerves react strangely." "Eat one!" "Thanks." "It's going to be tough from now on." "You have to prepare yourself for home-care ..." "I remember how it was with Mishima's grandmother." "His mom stayed away from home the whole time." "Good night!" "Good night!" "Good night!" "It won't take longer than 3 months." "Dr Yamazaki said: "Let him have some happy last memories."" "I am wondering if we can ..." "We had several parents complaining." "About some of Ms Tomioka's actions." "Because I kick students out of the class?" "They say you are quite cold all the time ..." "Cold?" "Don't you think that it sounds as if they want to be pampered?" "They should rather say "strict"." "Well, yes, too strict is ..." "There is a difference between loving and spoiling the students!" "There is nothing good about being liked by poor students ..." "Whom does that help?" "You shouldn't say that!" "She is a little bit too cold ..." "In the internet?" "A site where you can see corpses!" "What do you mean?" "We put a lot into our security software." "But they found out the address." "And now they look at it together at home ..." "That's scary!" "I can scold them, but I don't really know what to do ..." "My father was very strict." "He even beat me." ""A child can take it." "I don't mind being hated."" ""The kids will appreciate this once they are grown up."" "He always said that." ""I don't mind being hated." Terrible words ..." "But you said something similar today, didn't you?" "Oh well ..." "In each TV show that takes place at a school   there is always a teacher everyone hates." "I think it was my father who played that role in life." "Don't say that!" "What's wrong?" "I can't get it clean ..." "This one too!" "It doesn't get clean, does it?" "It doesn't ...?" "No." "I am wondering how he is going to die." "Holding his head high until the end I guess ..." "He was when he was told." "He is really strong." "And mother is too." "Can I have the lotion?" "Mmh?" "Yes ..." "But she wanted to keep it a secret and couldn't!" "When she told him?" "Yes." "Well ..." "I think ..." "Yes?" "She wanted to tell him." "Yes ..." "And now she wants to do everything she can do for him." "Mom took it pretty easy." "And you?" "Mmh?" "Isn't there anything that you   want to do for him?" "Go!" "Over here!" "Okay!" "Let's go!" "And again!" "You are too slow turning it over!" "Shut up ..." "Too much sake!" "Oh ... yeah ..." "Paprika!" "Yes!" "And what will you do after quitting?" "Here comes your paprika!" "I don't know yet." "But I have to quit ..." "Life is much tougher working in a company!" "What is it all about being a teacher?" "Mr Minegishi, I want to tell you something." "I finally remembered." "What?" "Your father was my teacher in middle school." "I am sorry for not visiting him now." "But I can't even remember his face." "How rude, Mr Yamaguchi!" "Don't worry." "Like that ..." "just like that ..." "It's unconciously in your mind all the time ..." "You keep thinking "I want to forget!" "I want to forget!"" "Thats how kids think about teachers." "What a miserable creature a teacher is." "Bullshit!" "Nothing good about teachers!" "Shut up!" "We had enough of that!" "Sorry, I won't go to your father's funeral!" "Take care!" "See you later!" "You are early today!" "Morning duty!" "It's not bad ..." "Can you take the garbage out?" "Okay." "Thanks." "Take care!" "Thanks, see you later!" "Why is nobody coming to visit grandpa?" "Well, everyone's busy." "And ..." "We don't want visitors who just come because of etiquette." "How young you are!" "This boy ..." "Ah, Suzuki!" "He was always so ..." "Then grandpa must have had more than 2000 students!" "He must feel lonely as a teacher." "Nobody invited him to a marriage." "And almost no reunions ..." "A big thing to be so unpopular!" "I don't think they hate him." "I think they just forgot grandpa." "Let's go!" "Did he mention any wishes?" "Nothing." "Something he'd like to do?" "He is just like my father was." "Give it to me!" "For mentioning something you want or want to do   you need a bit of strength." "And at the end everything vanishes." "He does not want to leave any thoughts behind." "And nothing else." "And the wishes vanish too." "That's how it is." "Stand up, graduates!" "We look up to the invaluable boon our mentors have bestowed upon us" "It has already been many years in this garden of learning" "Looking back, how quickly these months and years have passed" "Now, it is time to part, to say farewell" "We were looking for that tape!" "Which tape?" "The tape where father addresses the graduating students!" "You found it?" "With the graduation song from his favourite class of 72!" "He's always like that." "Always complaining the students the year before were better singers!" "Every year the same!" "That's right!" "Looks good!" "They must be sweet." "These look better ..." "But now they don't sing that song anymore." "It's such an old song." "Really...?" "The class is over so he will be here very soon." "Ah, here he is." "Just a moment!" "Mr Minegishi!" "Another complaint from the "Kosmos Crematory"." "Thanks." "Here is Minegishi." "This is Kamisaki from the Kosmos Crematory." "Yes." "We had another complaint about your student." "I see ..." "I am very sorry." "About death!" "A boy should not be interested in such things." "You have to teach him the importance of life." "Will you, Mr Minegishi!" "I know it's hard ..." "Well then ..." "It would be scary if it became popular among the other children." "That has started already!" "Several students have become interested in death or dead bodies." "The students of the 5th year have always been good kids." "But now they've started to become strange ..." "Even when you talk to them about morals or common sense   it doesn't seem to have any effect." "Well then, I am going to listen to the sounds in your breast." "Please turn to the rigth, Mr Minegishi." "All right?" "Just a moment." "Please take a deep breath." "Breathe out." "Well done." "We'll turn you back now." "And now the other side." "Ouch!" "Sorry!" "All right?" "Excuse me." "And another deep breath." "You shouldn't be interested in death!" "Be interested in life!" "Why is he so angry?" "Sorry to call you at work." "Father isn't very well." "You should come as early as possible." "I see." "Careful, the tube!" "Yes." "Dad!" "Are you asleep?" "What is that smell?" "It's the Hakka-oil we are putting on his belly." "It's supposed to be good for his intestine." " The doctor told you to?" " Yes." "Is he taking us for idiots?" "If mom was doing such things by herself it would be different." "But a doctor only suggesting such childish things?" "It's all we can do." "Nothing more can be done." "Stop running!" "Good morning!" "You lost something, Mr Minegishi." "Oh, thank you." "But once in a history lesson you told us about the old shoguns." "I really liked that." "In the lessons we only talk about that for a few hours." "But you told us things that were not written in the book." "I became interested in that era and started studying myself." "And it was a lot of fun making newspapers and other stuff." "Can you remember?" "Any memories?" "About their names or faces?" "Tell us if there is anybody you would like to see." "We will bring them here." "They'll come, I promise!" "Koichi!" "Please tell me." "Would you meet my students then?" "I would like to show this to them." "Koichi!" "How you go on struggling to be alive." "How you got older and how you are holding onto life now." "Koichi, you ...!" "I want you to show them." "Would you agree, dad?" "Stop that, Koichi!" "What's wrong with you?" "How can you ask him ...?" "Yes, do it!" "Careful!" "The cars!" "Yes, Sir!" "You let the children take care of your father?" "It's only a voluntary activity." "Of course it is." "How could you force them to do that!" "And how many children want to take part?" "Can we go home?" "At the beginning 20 of them." "I split them into groups of 3." "One group every day." "It was gross ..." "You want to teach them the meaning of life?" "How bad it smells!" "But showing them someone with cancer who is going to die   will that really have any positive effects on them?" "What was it like?" "What kind of reactions did you get?" "It didn't go well." "Will you come again?" "No, thank you ..." "I will ask my mom." "May I come again?" "And your father has agreed to that?" "I think he does." "But aren't you asking too much of him, even as a son?" "Someone's death isn't teaching material!" "It's not the kids who are misunderstanding the meaning of life." "Isn't it you, Mr Minegishi?" "You don't get to do much homework for me." "But you really have to study hard from now on!" "Don't waste your time watching TV at home." "Yes!" "And our special activity is finished too, no explanations." "Has your father died?" "Don't say that!" "That's all for today then." "Stand up!" "Bow!" "Good bye!" "Good bye!" "Don't forget your training shoes tomorrow, got it?" "And the long flute!" "You mean the "recorder"!" "Recorder?" "We look up to the invaluable boon our mentors have bestowed upon us" "It has already been many years ..." "Such an old song!" "Oh, you heard me?" "Did you sing that song at your graduation ceremony?" "In middle school ... the song was played as background music." "But not in high school." "My school was too "democratic" ..." "I see ..." "Yes?" "I can't go on my own, can I?" "Are you still looking at that site?" "Sometimes ..." "And my father?" "What is he like compared to a corpse?" "The corpses are dead, but ..." "But father is still alive ..." "What is dying all about?" "I don't know it myself." "Well?" "Will you help us today?" "Start with easy things like wiping his body." "It's important to wrench it well." "And if you wipe him carefully, all will be fine." "Try it!" "You can't?" "Give it to me then." "Okay, dad, we'll start." ""Clothing Festival" ..." "I am wondering if they have funeral clothes." "Let's have a look!" "Not yet ..." "We are going to have lunch now, aren't we?" "Dad, could you pee?" "You can't?" "It's you?" "Come inside!" "Thank you." "Isn't he in pain?" "He is getting painkillers." "It's morphine ...?" "Did you change the bed?" "We use an air mattress now." "You know what "bedsore" means?" "He has a bedsore?" "Yes." "Is he asleep?" "Yes." "It's really strange." "Why do people have to die?" "Show that to me!" "It's a camera, right?" "You took a photo of him?" "What do you want to do with that?" "Do you want to put it on that internet site?" "He is still alive!" "Leave!" "Dad ..." "I am sorry." "I am really sorry." "It's all right." "It's okay." "But never do such a thing again!" "May I   go and see him today?" "No!" "And how is your father these days?" "It's going to happen soon." "I see ..." "I had thought that I wanted that bullhead to die quickly." "But now I am happy about every single day." "When my father died, mother addressed all the guests." "Yes ..." "Is any miso soup left?" "Yes." "A man started laughing." "Mother?" "Water ..." "Yes." "Here." "Thanks." "I left the thermometer here." "Oh, right." "It was a young man, one of father's co-workers." "He kept talking quietly to the person sitting next to him." "And then he laughed." "Really...?" "I guess he laughed about something else ..." "But I could not stop crying anymore." "There were people alive and my father who had stopped living." "I felt so sorry for him." "I think only the people who are really sad should attend the dead." "Oh, Koichi?" "I'll stay with him." "Really?" "Is he awake?" "I think he is." "Dear, I'll make dinner now." "Let's eat together, yes?" "Thank you, Koichi." "Sure." "Would you hand me that cup?" "Would you like some tea?" "No thanks, I just had some." "I see." "What are you talking about when you are having dinner with mom?" "You blushed?" "Oh boy!" "Sorry about the chaos." "Please come inside." "Thank you." "Hey!" "How do you feel?" "Not very good." "Blocked nose?" "Everyone is worried because you didn't come for three days." "You must get better!" "My father ..." "My former father." "We had a propper altar in our old house." "But now I am married again, so ..." "My new husband said that he wouldn't mind, but ..." "Have a seat." "Does Yasuhiro remember his father?" "I think he does." "My younger child was still a baby so he doesn't remember." "But he was 5 years old, so he experienced something." "Thank you." "How about the day when his father died?" "Well ..." "We don't talk about that ..." "But I think he has forgotten about the funeral." "He kept asking questions about the funeral. "What was it like?" ..." "He is still asking that." "That's why he keeps going to the funeral halls ..." "Father doesn't want infusions anymore." "He kept saying "Stop it!" "Stop it!" ..." "Dad!" "You need the infusion!" "Even if you don't want it anymore." "But you need it." "Take the infusion." "These days the morphine makes you dizzy, doesn't it?" "But this morning he was quite clear again." "Yes." "And he asked: "Koichi!" "Where is Koichi?"" "Father!" "Father!" "Isn't it nice?" "Koichi is right here now." "Yes." "We cannot trust him yet, can we?" "There is much more you still have to teach him." "Ask me anything!" "I just don't know what to say." "Now at my age there is nothing I want to ask you." "Don't you feel pains without the infusion?" "Koichi ..." "Yes?" "Sensei ..." "Sensei?" "How lucky you are." "A Sensei ..." "He's got 54." "And the upper blood pressure is below 60 now." "Mr Minegishi, back to bed ..." "He went on breathing for a very long time." "But he might become better again." "It's not impossible." "The fever went down?" "But my throat is still a little soar." "Come inside." "May I?" "Sure, I asked you to come." "Good afternoon." "Ah, good afternoon." "Would you leave us alone for a moment?" "Dear, just a moment ..." "I won't say anything because you've made your decision." "Is it all right?" "What?" "That boy has a cold." "What if father gets that cold and ..." "Won't you regret it for your entire life?" "Father is a teacher until the very end." "Sensei ..." "What?" "I remember it now." "Mmh?" "I somehow remember how my father died." "There were many people, relatives, who came to hold his hand." "And they told me to hold his hand too..." "I remember it now." "But I couldn't say it." "That I could not hold his hand ..." "I was scared." "But my father smiled a bit and died ..." "I couldn't hold his hand ..." "Now I can remember that night." "It was fine that way." "He's teaching his last lesson." "It's fine, Tagami!" "It's fine." "Hold ..." "Hold his hand instead." "Tight with both hands." "Is it warm?" "He's alive." "Yes, he is." "Hold him as long as you want." "So that you won't forget..." "Fa ... re ... well ..." "Dad ..." "The deceased dedicated his life to being a teacher." "We, the family, also learnt many things from him." "When he was sick in hospital all the nurses took good care of him." "After he moved back to our house   we, the family, took care of him." "It was his wish:" ""I want to die like falling asleep at home" were his words." "That at least this wish became true   is a big consolation for all of us." "We, the family, ask you for your friendship." "Thank you for coming here today despite of the cold weather." "Thank you very much." "This was the speech of Minegishi Kazuharu's wife." "Our ceremony comes to an end and we'll go to the crematory." "We will have the burial." "Please attend the funeral until the very end." "The coffin, please." "Sensei!" "Sensei!" "Sensei!" "We look up to the invaluable boon our mentors have bestowed upon us" "It has already been many years in this garden of learning" "Looking back, how quickly these months and years have passed" "Now, it is time to part, to say farewell" "Now, it is time to part, to say farewell" "Farewell, Sensei!" "Farewell, Sensei!" "Farewell!" "Farewell!"
