Hello, Yuri?

I'm so sorry I couldn't get

a hold of you yesterday.

I couldn't get out of work...

it was an all-nighter.

Yeah, I know.

That's just an excuse.

But I'll make sure I'm on time today!

I'll definitely be there. Wait for me.

She thinks that accident was her fault.

Kuwahara-kun.

Sensei.

What is...

You're the only one taking

that homework seriously.

Are you off to pick up your brother?

Yes.

I'll give you a lift.

Aren't you going to watch over the club?

They'll be fine without me by now.

Sensei.

Hm?

You've read the letter, right?

Yeah.

Have you...

ever thought about why you're alive?

Uh... sensei.

- I am--

- It's okay.

I understand.

Thank you very much.

I can take you home, too.

I like walking with him.

Oh.

Bye.

- Hey, Satoru. Welcome back.

- Good to be back!

Akio, he's here!

Let's go home, Nii-chan.

Time to go home. Time to

go home. Let's go home!

"Dear myself in 15 years."

"Are you still with your brother?"

"Nah... you must be."

"His being around is

what I'm most thankful for."

"Since... if he wasn't born autistic,

I never would have been born."

"I know this much:

In the future, when my parents are gone,

he won't be able to get by alone."

"So my parents made a decision."

"They decided to give Akio a little sibling

to watch over him after they die."

"And that's why I'm here now."

"If he was born a normal kid,

I probably wouldn't be here."

"I have no doubts about my future."

"I know exactly why I'm here."

"But sometimes... only sometimes...

I wish he wasn't here."

"There are times I don't feel for him."

"But I will most likely

stay by his side my whole life."

"That's the reason I'm here, after all."

I'm glad you're around.

Haruko!

Everyone's making a huge deal out of this!

I'm just fine! Bursting with energy!

That's hardly possible.

She just doesn't listen to what she's told.

It's fine. We already decided on this.

We can't give up now.

Sorry, I have something to talk

to Yuri about. Go outside.

So, Yuri...

Is it true that you can't play the piano?

What are you talking about?

Why didn't you tell me?

Even if I did, there's

nothing you can do about it.

So you really can't play.

I just don't want to.

Then you should play. There are

plenty of people waiting to hear it.

There is nobody waiting.

There is.

- There isn't.

- There is.

Not anymore!

Hearing me play piano

won't make anyone happy.

Then...

why did you choose to sub for me?

That's because you--

Wrong.

It's because you haven't

given up on it yet, isn't it?

The person looking forward

to hearing you play most

is you yourself, isn't it?

Don't talk as if you understand me.

I believe the 15-year-old you

is dying to hear it.

I'm home.

Is that you, Nazuna?

You're sure getting home late.

Uh, Grandm--

You're completely hopeless, aren't you?

Grandpa.

Come here. Have a seat, Nazuna!

Hey, Grandpa!

Take it.

Take it.

You're in the choir club?

Yeah. Club captain.

You always did like singing, after all.

You'd often sing at church.

In the loudest voice of them all!

You actually remember that?

Of course I do!

Speaking of which, want to go

to church together tomorrow?

Yeah? Let's do it.

What happened?

Grandma!

He got us good.

That bastard...

How long will he be like that?

Feeling cold?!

- Hey.

- Hm?

Did something happen to Nazuna?

Like what?

Come a little closer!

Feeling cold?!

Uh... well... I guess it's nothing.

Will you let me hear you play?

Hearing me play will only bring you sadness.

Sensei, do you know

that a boat's horn is the same sound as "do"?

[do re mi fa sol etc]

My mom taught me that a long time ago.

A ship blowing its horn twice

is a sign the boat is leaving.

Nazuna, don't cry.

Just keep swimming!

Just keep swimming.

Sometimes...

I start to think there is no God.

If my mom didn't get

pregnant with me, she would...

most likely not have gotten married to my dad.

That means... that if I were never born,

she would have been happy, or so I think.

That's not...

That's how it is.

Even my mom

must think that herself.

Sensei...

I...

have been thrown away by my dad twice.

He has done it twice.

Everyone is pretty late. I'll go find them!

"Who are you giving

happiness to by playing piano?"

"Year 3:
Class 2. Kashiwagi Yuri."

"My dream for the future

is to make people the world

over happy by playing piano."

"That's because I believe music

has the power to save people."

"Who will the future me

be playing the piano for?"

"Who will the future me be giving

happiness to by playing piano?"

I knew it, sensei! You're awesome!

Wow!

- Keisuke.

- Yeah?

I'm going to Hayashi's place. You coming?

Can't swing it. I've got club.

Really?

You're still doing choir?

Yeah.

You of all people.

But if it's in a letter

to my future self,

I have confidence that I

can go ahead and let it all out.

With more clarity!

I feel like I've lost, I'm about to cry,

and I could just disappear.

The start of each line is completely uneven.

Listen to each other more carefully.

Okay!

Were the tenors slightly late here?

Maybe you just need to breathe a little faster?

Got it. I'll give it a shot.

Once more from the hook.

Okay!

You're getting slower!

Tighten up your stomach.

Okay, break time!

I feel like I've lost, I'm about to cry,

and I could just disappear.

Whose voice--

Heyyyy!

Matsuyama-sensei!

Hurry it up! We're going to be late!

- Keisuke.

- Yeah?

What are you wearing?

It's to keep my throat cool!

Is there a point to that?

There is!

Look, look, look! There's a ferris wheel!

It's so pretty!

Hey! Don't go crazy!

Your voices are too loud! You're

bothering other guests!

His is the loudest one here.

Maybe he should be singing.

Are you really okay?

Yeah, sure.

It's Haruko.

Hello!

I'll come cheer you on tomorrow!

I'm looking forward to hearing you all!

Hey, everyone! Matsuyama-sensei

says she's coming tomorrow!

- Don't embarrass yourselves in front of her.

- Okay!

Alright, everyone head to your rooms!

After you've dropped off your

things, head to the dining hall.

Kuwahara-kun.

Let's do our best tomorrow.

Okay!

- Isn't it great she's going to come?

- Yeah!

I guess I didn't need to worry.

About what?

Matsuyama-sensei has a weak heart.

My mom said childbirth might

be dangerous for her...

She'll be so surprised to

see how far we've come!

- Let's go.

- Okay.

Rehearsal is starting soon. Take

your bathroom breaks now.

- Okay.

- I'll take mine, too.

Nii-chan.

Thanks for coming.

Thanks for coming.

Thanks.

You've gotten bigger in

just one day without me!

Akio and I will be waiting over there.

You're not going inside?

We can hear it just fine out here.

- How about we sit right here?

- 'Kay.

Matsuyama-sensei is late.

Yeah.

--that's what you helped me realize.

Something so dear to me.

That was Junshin Middle School's choir club.

Akio!

Hold up, Akio!

Next up, we have East Nagasaki Middle School's choir club.
