Tamahiko Shima : Pessimist:	(0:00:08.09)
Tamahiko Shima : One who is distressed about the world, despondent about one's life,	(0:00:10.09)
Tamahiko Shima : and single-mindedly discouraged about the future.	(0:00:13.59)
Tamahiko Shima : That describes people like me to a T.	(0:00:17.14)
Tamahiko Shima : Though born into a family of means,	(0:00:22.52)
Tamahiko Shima : I grew up without a single drop of love from my family.	(0:00:26.06)
Tamahiko Shima : The coup de grâce?	(0:00:31.32)
Tamahiko Shima : I was in an accident--and lost everything.	(0:00:34.15)
Tamahiko Shima : My mother,	(0:00:38.16)
Tamahiko Shima : the use of my right hand,	(0:00:39.87)
Tamahiko Shima : and	(0:00:41.62)
Tamahiko Shima : my father's expectations.	(0:00:43.41)
Tamayoshi Shima : You would have to ruin your dominant hand.	(0:00:45.75)
Tamayoshi Shima : A good-for-nothing has no place in the Shima family.	(0:00:48.92)
Tamayoshi Shima : Get out of my sight.	(0:00:51.71)
Tamahiko Shima : I was sent off to our villa in the mountains of Chiba.	(0:00:56.47)
Tamahiko Shima : As though I were a nuisance just being alive,	(0:01:02.97)
Tamahiko Shima : and I should die, alone.	(0:01:06.48)
Tamahiko Shima : Yes: this is my final dwelling.	(0:01:09.77)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ In the moonless sky I see them ♬	(0:01:24.41)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ Tiny lights that twinkle so ♬	(0:01:30.59)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ There, in those starry shadows ♬	(0:01:36.72)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ See the shape of hope aglow ♬	(0:01:45.06)
Tamahiko Shima : My life has ended after 17 years.	(0:01:52.69)
Tamahiko Shima : I see nothing--no light to illuminate my way forward.	(0:01:58.03)
Tamahiko Shima : There's nothing... nothing.	(0:02:02.53)
Tamahiko Shima : How much easier it would be if I simply never woke up...	(0:02:07.08)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Begging your pardon!	(0:02:13.80)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Good evening!	(0:02:17.09)
Tamahiko Shima : Who could it be, deep in these mountains on a snowy night?	(0:02:23.89)
Tamahiko Shima : And you are?	(0:02:33.15)
Yuzuki Tachibana : A pleasure to meet you, Tamahiko-sama.	(0:02:35.82)
Yuzuki Tachibana : My name is Yuzuki.	(0:02:38.74)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I've come here to be your bride, Tamahiko-sama.	(0:02:42.78)
Tamahiko Shima : Come to think of it, my father did mention something that day...	(0:04:30.52)
Tamayoshi Shima : There's no one in the Shima family able to care for you now.	(0:04:35.81)
Tamayoshi Shima : I suppose I have no choice.	(0:04:40.32)
Tamayoshi Shima : I'll buy you a bride or something to look after you.	(0:04:41.90)
Tamahiko Shima : That's my father.	(0:04:46.91)
Tamahiko Shima : Most likely this girl was being sold to cover a debt.	(0:04:49.49)
Tamahiko Shima : Don't want to catch a cold.	(0:04:58.84)
Tamahiko Shima : But why send a bride to a dead man walking?	(0:05:03.92)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Um...	(0:05:08.76)
Tamahiko Shima : You may use this room as you wish.	(0:05:12.10)
Tamahiko Shima : It's entirely pointless.	(0:05:17.56)
Tamahiko Shima : Another day begins without a wink of sleep.	(0:05:27.32)
Tamahiko Shima : Wh-What are you doing?!	(0:05:37.29)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Oh! Good morning, Tamahiko-sama!	(0:05:39.38)
Yuzuki Tachibana : And what a lovely morning it is!	(0:05:42.42)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Look: last night's snow has already begun to melt.	(0:05:44.42)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Will you wash your face?	(0:05:52.64)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'll help!	(0:05:55.73)
Tamahiko Shima : I can do it myself.	(0:05:56.94)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I want to be helpful! Please let me take care of you.	(0:05:58.40)
Tamahiko Shima : Well, yes, but...	(0:06:03.48)
Tamahiko Shima : Y-You don't have to dry me off!	(0:06:09.45)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Oh, Tamahiko-sama!	(0:06:10.95)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Such dark circles. Are you having trouble sleeping at night?	(0:06:15.00)
Tamahiko Shima : Not...	(0:06:18.71)
Tamahiko Shima : Not particularly. And it's no concern of yours.	(0:06:20.79)
Tamahiko Shima : Please, let me be.	(0:06:24.00)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I've made breakfast...	(0:06:27.51)
Tamahiko Shima : I'm not hungry.	(0:06:30.05)
Tamahiko Shima : And every day'll be like this?	(0:06:33.51)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Pardon me!	(0:06:37.06)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'll just do some cleaning.	(0:06:38.18)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I've been shopping in town!	(0:06:53.12)
Tamahiko Shima : You certainly are strong...	(0:06:55.83)
Yuzuki Tachibana : A nice big serving! Eat up!	(0:06:59.83)
Tamahiko Shima : Impossible.	(0:07:01.92)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Tamahiko-sama!	(0:07:04.42)
Yuzuki Tachibana : There was a hole, but I patched it for you!	(0:07:06.80)
Tamahiko Shima : My long johns!	(0:07:11.05)
Tamahiko Shima : You just go around mending men's underwear?	(0:07:13.64)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Underwear?!	(0:07:18.43)
Tamahiko Shima : It's a little late to be so scandalized.	(0:07:20.31)
Tamahiko Shima : I've been all out of sorts ever since that girl showed up.	(0:07:23.44)
Tamahiko Shima : Here I thought I'd slowly rot away in obscurity.	(0:07:28.40)
Tamahiko Shima : How irritating.	(0:07:32.49)
Tamahiko Shima : Don't even have time... to get lost... in thought.	(0:07:34.99)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'm coming in!	(0:07:39.00)
Tamahiko Shima : What?!	(0:07:40.75)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'll rinse your back!	(0:07:41.87)
Tamahiko Shima : Pl-Please don't trouble yourself!	(0:07:45.46)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Oh, I will.	(0:07:47.50)
Yuzuki Tachibana : It must be hard to do one-handed.	(0:07:48.71)
Tamahiko Shima : What gives?	(0:07:56.30)
Tamahiko Shima : What is this girl thinking?	(0:07:58.14)
Tamahiko Shima : Given her speech and mannerisms,	(0:08:01.52)
Tamahiko Shima : she was likely a pampered-princess type.	(0:08:05.06)
Tamahiko Shima : An innocent girl who knows little of the world.	(0:08:08.02)
Tamahiko Shima : I bet you haven't a single worry to speak of.	(0:08:13.66)
Yuzuki Tachibana : --Why, that's awful! --Eh?	(0:08:16.62)
Tamahiko Shima : --Why, that's awful! --Eh?	(0:08:16.62)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I certainly do have a worry.	(0:08:18.49)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Two of them, in fact!	(0:08:20.37)
Tamahiko Shima : Is that all?	(0:08:24.87)
Yuzuki Tachibana : But to me, both of them are big worries.	(0:08:26.63)
Tamahiko Shima : That's right--she was sold to pay off a debt.	(0:08:32.72)
Tamahiko Shima : The unspeakable agony of coming into the world...	(0:08:37.18)
Yuzuki Tachibana : One of them...	(0:08:41.52)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ...is my hair--I have so much, and it's so wavy!	(0:08:47.90)
Tamahiko Shima : Huh?	(0:08:52.24)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I know--it's weird! And it's way too fluffy!	(0:08:54.07)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'd love to have shiny, straight hair, but nothing works!	(0:08:56.74)
Yuzuki Tachibana : All I can do is braid it!	(0:09:00.04)
Tamahiko Shima : That's... your worry?	(0:09:02.41)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I can't believe I showed you!	(0:09:06.42)
Tamahiko Shima : Sorry.	(0:09:19.39)
Yuzuki Tachibana : So that's what you look like when you laugh.	(0:09:21.39)
Tamahiko Shima : Huh?	(0:09:24.27)
Yuzuki Tachibana : If it made you smile, Tamahiko-sama...	(0:09:26.02)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I think I'm starting to warm up to this hair.	(0:09:28.77)
Tamahiko Shima : Enough. Leave me in peace!	(0:09:35.95)
Tamahiko Shima : She's on my last nerve.	(0:09:41.99)
Yuzuki Tachibana : This monaka sweet is delicious!	(0:09:54.55)
Machiko : Try these, too.	(0:09:57.05)
Keiko : And these--they're tasty!	(0:09:58.59)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Are you sure? I'm always eating everyone else's treats...	(0:10:01.01)
Midori : It's perfectly fine.	(0:10:06.31)
Midori : After all, Yuzuki, when you're on meal duty,	(0:10:08.06)
Midori : we always eat more than usual!	(0:10:10.31)
Keiko : It's a sin to make a maiden eat even one bite more!	(0:10:12.90)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Th-Then I'll just have to atone for my sins!	(0:10:17.40)
Midori : Very good.	(0:10:21.66)
Akiko : Yuzuki! I fell!	(0:10:23.70)
Akiko : And see this here? It's all torn!	(0:10:26.00)
Yuzuki Tachibana : All right.	(0:10:28.87)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Let's sew that right up.	(0:10:30.38)
Midori : She's such a mom.	(0:10:40.64)
Machiko : She really is.	(0:10:42.64)
Akiko : Thanks, Yuzuki!	(0:10:45.47)
Akiko : You really will make a wonderful bride someday!	(0:10:47.10)
Yuzuki Tachibana : A bride...	(0:10:50.48)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Actually, there's something I need to tell you all...	(0:10:54.02)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I... I'm leaving the girls' school.	(0:11:00.20)
Midori : But why? This is all so sudden!	(0:11:05.45)
Yuzuki Tachibana : It's embarrassing to talk about...	(0:11:08.00)
Yuzuki Tachibana : but my parents are deep in debt,	(0:11:10.71)
Yuzuki Tachibana : so I'm to be married to their lender's son.	(0:11:13.63)
Machiko : No!	(0:11:17.84)
Keiko : B-But women can't marry until they're 15!	(0:11:19.88)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Right.	(0:11:25.18)
Yuzuki Tachibana : But certain circumstances mean I'll be leaving to take care of him.	(0:11:26.77)
Midori : Yuzuki...	(0:11:32.31)
Yuzuki Tachibana : No matter what he's like, no matter what his circumstances,	(0:11:34.56)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'll just do my best and be with him for always.	(0:11:38.49)
Yuzuki Tachibana : After all, he's my dearest husband.	(0:11:43.53)
Midori : It's all right.	(0:11:50.50)
Midori : I know you can do it, no matter who you'll be marrying.	(0:11:51.96)
Midori : I mean, you work twice as hard as anyone else!	(0:11:57.25)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Midori...	(0:12:01.72)
Midori : You must... you must...	(0:12:05.39)
Midori : ...be happy!	(0:12:08.68)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I will!	(0:12:10.48)
Tamahiko Shima : The New Year's Eve bell...	(0:12:31.71)
Tamahiko Shima : So it's the dawn of another year.	(0:12:34.00)
Tamahiko Shima : A new year, and my life is the same as ever.	(0:12:39.05)
Tamahiko Shima : I can't sleep.	(0:12:50.72)
Tamahiko Shima : All these thoughts running through my head...	(0:13:11.49)
Tamayoshi Shima : Get out of my sight.	(0:13:15.17)
Tamaki Shima : Your dominant hand? You've failed as the second Shima son.	(0:13:18.29)
Tamayo Shima : Aren't you fancy, retiring at such an early age.	(0:13:21.59)
Tamao Shima : You should have died instead of Mother!	(0:13:26.13)
Tamako Shima : I couldn't care less if you went away.	(0:13:30.47)
Tamako Shima : Farewell, useless good-for-nothing brother of mine.	(0:13:34.27)
Yuzuki Tachibana : May I stay up with you?	(0:14:10.10)
Tamahiko Shima : What's she thinking?	(0:14:14.56)
Tamahiko Shima : As you like.	(0:14:17.23)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Hooray!	(0:14:19.19)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Oh--I know!	(0:14:20.40)
Tamahiko Shima : The girl's a bother, too.	(0:14:24.73)
Tamahiko Shima : If she were just a maid, I'd give her the day off and send her out.	(0:14:27.53)
Tamahiko Shima : Don't you hate it?	(0:14:37.12)
Yuzuki Tachibana : What's that?	(0:14:38.75)
Tamahiko Shima : Being chased deep into the mountains here	(0:14:40.38)
Tamahiko Shima : and given as a bride to a man like me.	(0:14:42.67)
Tamahiko Shima : Of course you do.	(0:14:46.88)
Tamahiko Shima : Of course you'd hate it.	(0:14:48.88)
Tamahiko Shima : A pessimist recluse like me with no future--	(0:14:51.26)
Tamahiko Shima : it must be torture simply to live under the same roof!	(0:14:54.68)
Tamahiko Shima : You must be cursing your own misfortune!	(0:14:57.27)
Tamahiko Shima : Come now, don't hold back-- tell me how you really feel!	(0:14:59.39)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Here. It's ready.	(0:15:11.11)
Tamahiko Shima : What is it?	(0:15:14.58)
Yuzuki Tachibana : It's delicious.	(0:15:16.41)
Tamahiko Shima : It's sweet... and warm.	(0:15:25.34)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I warmed up some milk and added sugar.	(0:15:28.47)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Back in the dorms at the girls' school,	(0:15:38.18)
Yuzuki Tachibana : we'd often stay up late drinking this.	(0:15:40.73)
Tamahiko Shima : School?	(0:15:44.94)
Yuzuki Tachibana : We'd chat about silly things, sing songs...	(0:15:47.69)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ In the moonless sky I see them ♬	(0:15:53.53)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ♬ Tiny lights that twinkle so ♬	(0:15:59.79)
Yuzuki Tachibana : --♬ There, in those starry shadows ♬	(0:16:05.50)
Tamahiko Shima : --This song... --♬ There, in those starry shadows ♬	(0:16:09.34)
Yuzuki Tachibana : --This song... --♬ There, in those starry shadows ♬	(0:16:09.34)
Yuzuki Tachibana : --♬ See the shape of hope aglow ♬	(0:16:11.09)
Tamahiko Shima : --My mother often sang that to my little sister, long ago. --♬ See the shape of hope aglow ♬	(0:16:14.47)
Touko Shima : --My mother often sang that to my little sister, long ago. --♬ Since our knowledge knows no limits ♬	(0:16:16.97)
Touko Shima : --♬ Since our knowledge knows no limits ♬	(0:16:18.47)
Touko Shima : ♬ On some far-off day to come ♬	(0:16:22.89)
Yuzuki Tachibana : What fun we had...	(0:16:29.94)
Tamahiko Shima : I no longer think of going back to school.	(0:16:34.86)
Tamahiko Shima : Think of all the hardships I'd encounter	(0:16:38.45)
Tamahiko Shima : with this right hand of mine.	(0:16:41.25)
Tamahiko Shima : I'm just... I'm fed up.	(0:16:43.54)
Tamahiko Shima : Fed up with being unneeded...	(0:16:47.09)
Tamahiko Shima : Fed up with being hurt...	(0:16:49.67)
Tamahiko Shima : With every nightfall, I think:	(0:16:53.59)
Tamahiko Shima : ＂I don't want to wake up.＂	(0:16:56.47)
Tamahiko Shima : No one would even mourn my death.	(0:16:59.01)
Tamahiko Shima : But...	(0:17:04.64)
Tamahiko Shima : ...the more I think about it, the less I can sleep.	(0:17:06.10)
Tamahiko Shima : Why are you so kind to me?	(0:17:30.75)
Tamahiko Shima : Not even my own family... not one of them...	(0:17:36.84)
Yuzuki Tachibana : When your father bought me for 10,000 yen...	(0:17:43.73)
Yuzuki Tachibana : ...I said I wasn't afraid to be the wife of a man I'd never met.	(0:17:48.86)
Yuzuki Tachibana : That was a lie.	(0:17:53.86)
Yuzuki Tachibana : But the first time I met you...	(0:17:56.82)
Tamahiko Shima : Your coat goes there.	(0:18:00.49)
Yuzuki Tachibana : R-Right.	(0:18:02.12)
Tamahiko Shima : You must have walked a long way.	(0:18:03.70)
Yuzuki Tachibana : A-About 30 chō ... or so.	(0:18:06.00)
Tamahiko Shima : Don't want to catch a cold.	(0:18:13.09)
Yuzuki Tachibana : He's so kind, and has such integrity.	(0:18:16.05)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I'm sure he'll cherish me.	(0:18:20.10)
Yuzuki Tachibana : So, I thought, I'll cherish him , too, and be kind to him.	(0:18:25.35)
Tamahiko Shima : Wha--Wh-Wh--	(0:18:31.94)
Tamahiko Shima : What's your rationale for that?!	(0:18:34.23)
Tamahiko Shima : Do you always take people at their word?	(0:18:36.53)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Oh, Tamahiko-sama! Might we sleep together?	(0:18:38.86)
Tamahiko Shima : Huh?!	(0:18:41.87)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Just for tonight-- it's our first New Year holiday.	(0:18:43.24)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Let's greet the first morning of the new year together!	(0:18:46.83)
Tamahiko Shima : Greet the morning--together?	(0:18:50.25)
Tamahiko Shima : What--how--what--how is this happening?!	(0:18:55.71)
Tamahiko Shima : Wh-Wh-What do I do?	(0:19:01.64)
Tamahiko Shima : I-it's my first time-- what am I supposed to d-d-d-do?	(0:19:03.18)
Tamahiko Shima : I haven't the foggiest idea!	(0:19:08.18)
Tamahiko Shima : Ah! That's right!	(0:19:10.44)
Tamahiko Shima : I-It's around here somewhere...	(0:19:12.44)
Tamahiko Shima : T-Terrifying!	(0:19:18.95)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Pardon me!	(0:19:21.32)
Tamahiko Shima : Huh? Separate futons?	(0:19:23.41)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Good night!	(0:19:26.66)
Tamahiko Shima : ＂Sleep together＂... ＂sleep together＂...	(0:19:30.87)
Tamahiko Shima : She really did mean ＂sleep... together ＂!	(0:19:35.55)
Tamahiko Shima : I-I knew that.	(0:19:40.93)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Would you have preferred we share one futon?	(0:19:48.68)
Yuzuki Tachibana : We mustn't! I'm still a virgin who's never even been in love yet!	(0:19:52.02)
Yuzuki Tachibana : That will have to wait until we're married.	(0:19:56.73)
Yuzuki Tachibana : But...	(0:20:02.20)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I will save myself for you, Tamahiko-sama.	(0:20:03.82)
Tamahiko Shima : You...	(0:20:08.24)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Please, call me Yuzu.	(0:20:09.70)
Tamahiko Shima : You would give your chastity to a man you don't even love?	(0:20:14.17)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I...	(0:20:19.59)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I want to be at your side to see all the different Tamahiko-samas.	(0:20:22.80)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I want to love you.	(0:20:27.22)
Yuzuki Tachibana : That's what I think.	(0:20:29.35)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Good night.	(0:20:33.23)
Tamahiko Shima : What on earth...?	(0:20:38.78)
Tamahiko Shima : I... I can't sleep.	(0:20:54.37)
Tamahiko Shima : Another entirely sleepless night.	(0:20:57.09)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Good morning!	(0:21:01.51)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Good morning, Tamahiko-sama.	(0:21:05.93)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Happy New Year!	(0:21:11.02)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I've made breakfast.	(0:21:13.39)
Yuzuki Tachibana : I hope it's to your liking...	(0:21:17.69)
Tamahiko Shima : What's this?	(0:21:22.53)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Hittsumi dumpling soup. I thought you'd get tired of New Year's dishes.	(0:21:24.57)
Yuzuki Tachibana : Is it good?	(0:21:38.84)
Tamahiko Shima : She really is one annoying girl.	(0:21:41.55)
