00:
30:03,760 -- 00:30:05,398

- Yes, ma'am.

- Study hard.

409

00:
30:05,520 -- 00:30:07,192

You can count on me.

410

00:
30:15,280 -- 00:30:16,998

- Shizuku!

- Hey, Yuko!

411

00:
30:17,120 -- 00:30:19,509

Hurry up! I don't want to be late

for our first day.

412

00:
30:19,640 -- 00:30:22,234

I can't believe how many tests

we have to take.

413

00:
30:22,360 -- 00:30:24,555

It's one thing or another every day.

414

00:
30:29,000 -- 00:30:31,514

- So, did you answer the letter?

- Mm-mmm.

415

00:
30:31,640 -- 00:30:33,198

Have you made up your mind yet?

416

00:
30:33,320 -- 00:30:35,629

Yeah. I decided I don't want

to go out with him.

417

00:
30:35,720 -- 00:30:39,190

OK. Yeah, maybe that's best.

418

00:
30:39,320 -- 00:30:41,754

- Sugimura!

- [Gasping]

419

00:
30:41,880 -- 00:30:43,472

You're gonna be late!

420

00:
30:43,600 -- 00:30:45,670

Calm down, we know!

421

00:
30:54,280 -- 00:30:57,636

- OK, everybody, pencils down.

- [Students groaning]

422

00:
30:57,720 -- 00:31:00,075

[Bell chiming]

423

00:
31:03,080 -- 00:31:05,753

- Regular classes this afternoon.

- Hey, Jun, Daizo.

424

00:
31:05,840 -- 00:31:07,796

Let's eat fast so we can get outside.

425

00:
31:07,920 -- 00:31:10,434

Let's eat lunch

in Miss Kosaka's office, OK?

426

00:
31:10,560 -- 00:31:12,630

Can we stop

by the teachers' lounge first?

427

00:
31:12,760 -- 00:31:14,830

- I guess so.

- Hey, Shizuku, check it out!

428

00:
31:14,960 -- 00:31:17,554

- What?

- I totally aced that test.

429

00:
31:17,640 -- 00:31:18,868

Well, good for you.

430

00:
31:18,960 -- 00:31:22,111

Everything I studied was on the test

and I barely studied.

431

00:
31:22,200 -- 00:31:24,475

So you're not just

a bench warmer after all.

432

00:
31:24,560 -- 00:31:26,676

Yuko's good at guessing what's on tests.

433

00:
31:26,800 -- 00:31:29,758

- You should study with her sometime.

- Study with her?

434

00:
31:29,880 -- 00:31:31,836

- Sugimura, Sugimura!

- What's up?

435

00:
31:31,920 -- 00:31:34,718

- [Boy] Did you see this?

- Let's go, Shizuku.

436

00:
31:39,560 -- 00:31:41,596

I can't believe you said that, Shizuku.

437

00:
31:41,680 -- 00:31:42,749

What's the problem?

438

00:
31:42,880 -- 00:31:45,314

I've never been good

at guessing what's on tests.

439

00:
31:45,440 -- 00:31:45,997

[Chuckling] Sorry.

440

00:
31:47,320 -- 00:31:48,639

Excuse us.

441

00:
31:51,320 -- 00:31:53,197

You want to know who donated a book?

442

00:
31:53,280 -- 00:31:55,714

I don't think I'd remember

something like that.

443

00:
31:55,800 -- 00:31:58,075

I hate to interrupt you

while you're eating.

444

00:
31:58,160 -- 00:32:00,515

- Look at this stamp here.

- Hmm? Well...

445

00:
32:00,600 -- 00:32:01,874

Let's see.

446

00:
32:04,240 -- 00:32:08,518

Oh, Dr. Amasawa, sure. I've read

this book too. It's quite a good one.

447

00:
32:08,600 -- 00:32:10,079

Yes, it's great.

448

00:
32:10,200 -- 00:32:13,272

So, is there anything that you can

tell me about Dr. Amasawa?

449

00:
32:13,360 -- 00:32:14,759

Let me see if I can remember.

450

00:
32:14,880 -- 00:32:16,950

I think he was chairman of the PTA.

451

00:
32:17,040 -- 00:32:18,189

The PTA, huh?

452

00:
32:18,320 -- 00:32:21,153

Would you happen to remember

Dr. Amasawa's first name?

453

00:
32:21,280 -- 00:32:22,759

First name? Let's see.

454

00:
32:22,840 -- 00:32:26,515

Mr. Kimura, do you happen to

remember Dr. Amasawa's first name?

455

00:
32:26,640 -- 00:32:30,160

Dr. Amasawa. I'm pretty sure

it's Koichi. Koichi Amasawa.

456

00:
32:30,160 -- 00:32:31,991

Koichi Amasawa.

457

00:
32:32,080 -- 00:32:35,117

Shizuku, Dr. Amasawa's son

goes to school here.

458

00:
32:35,200 -- 00:32:38,192

There's a chance you could

have met him. He's in your grade.

459

00:
32:38,280 -- 00:32:39,633

Huh? Uh... I...

460

00:
32:39,760 -- 00:32:41,751

I gotta go. Thank you very much!

461

00:
32:42,760 -- 00:32:44,159

Uh, excuse us.

462

00:
32:44,880 -- 00:32:46,438

Oh! Excuse me.

463

00:
32:46,560 -- 00:32:47,993

[Sighing]

464

00:
32:48,080 -- 00:32:51,117

[Yuko] Shizuku! What's wrong with you?

465

00:
32:51,240 -- 00:32:54,073

[Panting] It can't be him.

466

00:
32:54,200 -- 00:32:56,395

What in the world are you talking about?

467

00:
32:56,520 -- 00:32:59,432

You are acting like a total weirdo.

468

00:
32:59,520 -- 00:33:01,875

I'm sorry. [sighing]

469

00:
33:10,160 -- 00:33:12,276

Shizuku, now what are you doing?

470

00:
33:28,320 -- 00:33:31,073

What a complete jerk!

Do you know what that guy's name is?

471

00:
33:31,200 -- 00:33:33,509

No. He's not in our class.

What's the big deal?

472

00:
33:33,640 -- 00:33:36,108

That jerk better not

be Dr. Amasawa's son.

473

00:
33:36,240 -- 00:33:37,434

[Laughing]

474

00:
33:37,520 -- 00:33:40,273

[Girl] Shizuku chasing down boys?

I don't believe it.

475

00:
33:40,400 -- 00:33:42,994

[Yuko] I had to run after her

carrying her lunchbox.

476

00:
33:43,640 -- 00:33:45,949

So Shizuku has a crush on someone, eh?

477

00:
33:46,040 -- 00:33:48,759

Miss Kosaka, can you believe

she's finally interested

478

00:
33:48,840 -- 00:33:50,592

in something other than a book?

479

00:
33:50,680 -- 00:33:54,036

- I'm not interested. He's a jerk!

- What if he checked out those books?

480

00:
33:54,160 -- 00:33:56,958

- He's your perfect match.

- Like a fairy tale.

481

00:
33:57,080 -- 00:33:58,752

If it's him, it's a horror story.

482

00:
33:58,880 -- 00:34:02,839

So, tell us, what's the name of this guy

who checked out all the books, Yuko?

483

00:
34:03,920 -- 00:34:06,195

- Yuko.

- I can't remember exactly.

484

00:
34:06,280 -- 00:34:09,397

There was a "ma" in it,

or maybe it was a "wa."

485

00:
34:09,480 -- 00:34:11,994

Ama... Just say it, Shizuku!

486

00:
34:12,120 -- 00:34:14,953

- No way.

- Shizuku is such a great storyteller,

487

00:
34:15,040 -- 00:34:17,634

but now that the story is about her,

she won't say a word.

488

00:
34:17,760 -- 00:34:20,638

You can't hide the fact

you're in love, Shizuku.

489

00:
34:21,280 -- 00:34:24,477

The look on your face shows

your heart suffers with every beat.

490

00:
34:24,560 -- 00:34:27,518

[Mouth full] How romantic.

You are in love.

491

00:
34:28,280 -- 00:34:30,714

Go ahead, make fun of me if you want to.

492

00:
34:30,800 -- 00:34:33,758

Too bad. I was gonna show you

my lyrics for iCountry Roads./i

493

00:
34:33,840 -- 00:34:36,115

- You're finished?

- Let me see! Let me see!

494

00:
34:37,400 -- 00:34:41,393

Great Shizuku, master of writing,

we shall make fun of you no more.

495

00:
34:41,520 -- 00:34:44,239

- Please grace us with your words.

- That's better.

496

00:
34:45,040 -- 00:34:46,996

I don't know if it's any good, though.

497

00:
34:47,920 -- 00:34:50,593

And it might not be

appropriate for graduation.

498

00:
34:50,680 -- 00:34:53,148

I just tried to write something

from the heart.

499

Hayao Miyazaki

Hayao Miyazaki (宮崎 駿, Miyazaki Hayao, born January 5, 1941) is a Japanese film director, producer, screenwriter, animator, author, and manga artist. A co-founder of Studio Ghibli, a film and animation studio, he has attained international acclaim as a masterful storyteller and as a maker of anime feature films, and is widely regarded as one of the greatest animation directors. Born in Bunkyō Ward of Tokyo, Miyazaki expressed interest in manga and animation from an early age, and he joined Toei Animation in 1963. During his early years at Toei Animation he worked as an in-between artist and later collaborated with director Isao Takahata. Notable films to which Miyazaki contributed at Toei include Doggie March and Gulliver's Travels Beyond the Moon. He provided key animation to other films at Toei, such as Puss in Boots and Animal Treasure Island, before moving to A-Pro in 1971, where he co-directed Lupin the Third Part I alongside Takahata. After moving to Zuiyō Eizō (later known as Nippon Animation) in 1973, Miyazaki worked as an animator on World Masterpiece Theater, and directed the television series Future Boy Conan. He joined Telecom Animation Film/Tokyo Movie Shinsha in 1979 to direct his first feature films, The Castle of Cagliostro in 1979 and Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind in 1984, as well as the television series Sherlock Hound. Miyazaki co-founded Studio Ghibli in 1985. He directed multiple films with Ghibli, including Castle in the Sky in 1986, My Neighbor Totoro in 1988, Kiki's Delivery Service in 1989, and Porco Rosso in 1992. The films were met with commercial and critical success in Japan. Miyazaki's film Princess Mononoke was the first animated film to win the Japan Academy Prize for Picture of the Year, and briefly became the highest-grossing film in Japan following its release in 1997; its distribution to the Western world greatly increased Ghibli's popularity and influence outside Japan. His 2001 film Spirited Away became the highest-grossing film in Japanese history, winning the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 75th Academy Awards and considered among the greatest films of the decade. Miyazaki's later films—Howl's Moving Castle, Ponyo, and The Wind Rises—also enjoyed critical and commercial success. Following the release of The Wind Rises, Miyazaki announced his retirement from feature films, though he returned to work on a new feature film in 2016. Miyazaki's works are characterized by the recurrence of themes such as humanity's relationship with nature and technology, the wholesomeness of natural and traditional patterns of living, the importance of art and craftsmanship, and the difficulty of maintaining a pacifist ethic in a violent world. The protagonists of his films are often strong girls or young women, and several of his films present morally ambiguous antagonists with redeeming qualities. Miyazaki's works have been highly praised and awarded; he was named a Person of Cultural Merit for outstanding cultural contributions in November 2012, and received the Academy Honorary Award for his impact on animation and cinema in November 2014. In 2002, American film critic Roger Ebert suggested that Miyazaki may be the best animation filmmaker in history, praising the depth and artistry of his films. more…
