00:04Okazaki!
00:05Oh, hey. Good morning.
00:10Hope you're hungry.
00:12Wow, thanks.
00:14Don't tell me you stayed up all night working.
00:17Are you kidding? I went home right after you guys.
00:20Um, if you don't mind, we were thinking about skipping school today so we could help you out with the
00:24yard work.
00:26Well, I appreciate the thought and all, but it might look bad for the school if we have two class
00:31reps skip out on the same day.
00:37Hitomi! Are you sleeping okay? Are you eating okay?
00:41We're all really looking forward to your birthday this weekend, so I hope you're feeling better by then.
00:50I don't know, guys. Do you think she's really okay?
00:55I don't know, guys.
01:25I don't know.
01:31I don't know.
01:34I don't know.
01:42I don't know.
03:00All right, guess I'll see you tomorrow.
03:02You have to promise me you two won't push yourselves too hard, okay?
03:06All right, I promise.
03:08You have a safe trip home.
03:15Do you really think we'll be able to finish the yard work by tomorrow?
03:18Yeah, no sweat.
03:19I was planning on working through the night, so I'll have plenty of time.
03:24In that case...
03:25No way.
03:26But I haven't even said anything yet.
03:28But you were going to say you'd stay and help me, right?
03:31No way.
03:32If you got sick or something, I bet your dad would totally flip out and take out a restraining order
03:37against me.
03:38But weren't you working late last night too?
03:40I don't want you to get sick either.
03:42I'll be fine.
03:43It's nothing compared to what the basketball team put me through.
03:50I'll take your word for it.
03:51But if you ever need any help, you just let me know and I promise I'll come running, okay?
04:03Man, I'm really beat.
04:08Huh?
04:13Kotomi...
04:13I hope you're all right.
04:16We're all worried about you, you know.
04:21The universe is not just that which we can see.
04:25When this world was developing its ideal shape and form, a microscopic dimension was sealed away.
04:32A hidden world exists.
04:34A hidden world, he says.
04:51I guess I made it in time after all.
05:02If I read this book now, she wouldn't mind, would she?
05:07Day before a rabbit, yesterday a deer.
05:11I get it.
05:12So those lines she said were from this book.
05:26The day before yesterday, I saw a rabbit.
05:29Yesterday it was a deer.
05:32And today it was you.
05:44Oh man, where am I?
06:09I've never seen you here before.
06:12What are you doing in my yard?
06:14I was playing around here and just wandered in.
06:17Anyway, what's your name?
06:19Kotomi.
06:20Written in three hiragana characters.
06:23But you can call me Kotomi-chan.
06:24Oh, Kotomi.
06:26Who's your cute little friend?
06:30That was how I first met Kotomi.
06:34Well, shall we eat?
06:36It'd be my pleasure.
06:41This one is a California poppy.
06:43And this one over here is a pansy.
06:46Wow.
06:48Kotomi, it's such a nice day.
06:50Why don't the two of you play outside instead?
06:57But this is outside.
06:59No, sweetie.
07:00Outside is on the other side of those hedges.
07:03There are all sorts of exciting places to explore out there
07:07and all sorts of new things to see.
07:09I don't wanna.
07:10It's scary.
07:12The day before yesterday, I saw a rabbit.
07:16Yesterday, it was a deer.
07:17And today, it's you.
07:19Kotomi didn't like to go out much.
07:21The furthest she would go is her yard.
07:23As far as I knew, she never had any friends over either.
07:27Hey, when you have your big birthday party,
07:30is it okay if I invite some of my friends over, too?
07:33Oh, come on.
07:34I bet everyone would love to come here and make friends with you.
07:37It'll be fun, I promise.
07:41Huh?
07:41A birthday party for some girl I don't even know?
07:44Yeah, and I don't know if I wanna be seen going to a girl's birthday party.
07:53After what I said, I was too ashamed to show up at her party alone.
07:57I lost my nerve when I made it to her yard.
08:03By the time I finally built up the courage to go see her,
08:06it was already midnight.
08:07But that didn't matter to me.
08:08I had to apologize to her no matter what.
08:13Okay.
08:26Kotomi-chan!
08:28Kotomi-chan!
08:51I burned it, Timoya!
08:54I burned Mommy and Daddy's pieces!
09:17You didn't burn the thesis.
09:19It's all right.
09:20You don't have to cry now.
09:22That folder was for you, not for your parents' research.
09:37After that, I never saw Kotomi again.
09:40No matter how many times I stopped by her house,
09:42she never came to the window to see me.
09:46The day when I met her for the first time,
09:49the afternoons we spent playing in her backyard,
09:51as time passed,
09:53they began to feel like nothing but a dream.
09:56And like a dream,
09:57before I knew it,
09:58I had forgotten that any of it ever happened.
10:03I've never seen you here before.
10:05What are you doing in my yard?
10:09Are you finally awake?
10:13I don't know.
10:14It feels like I might still be dreaming.
10:16The boy who wandered into my yard?
10:19I could never forget him,
10:20even after all these years.
10:23In the end,
10:24I don't know if he ever understood my feelings,
10:26but I always cared for him very much.
10:29Because even if he forgot about me,
10:32he was my first and only friend.
10:35That's why...
10:39I've been waiting for him.
10:42Kotomi.
10:44The day before yesterday,
10:46I saw a rabbit.
10:47Yesterday, it was a deer.
10:49And today, it's you.
10:51My Timoya.
10:58I'm here for you.
10:59Everyone can't wait to see you again.
11:22The sky.
11:24It's so beautiful.
11:26Yeah.
11:32There she is!
11:34Huh?
11:45Good morning, Kotomi.
11:47We all missed you.
11:49Welcome back, Kotomi.
11:52Good morning, Kotomi.
11:54It's nice to see everyone again.
11:58Were you all waiting for me?
12:01Of course!
12:02After all, we gotta celebrate your birthday, right?
12:05My birthday?
12:06Right.
12:08As for your present,
12:10this will have to do for now.
12:11Here.
12:14Violin gift certificate?
12:15It's actually the violin from before
12:17that you liked so much.
12:19We were hoping that we'd be able
12:20to give it to you today,
12:21but it got kind of roughed up.
12:23We found a music shop
12:24that said they can fix it,
12:25but it looks like the repairs
12:27might take a while.
12:28As soon as it's ready,
12:29you can trade your coupon
12:30for the real thing,
12:31so try to hold on until then.
12:36Thanks, you guys.
12:40Itchinose!
12:40Mm-hmm.
12:41Oh!
12:42Oh, it's good to see you.
12:44I'm glad you're feeling up
12:45to coming back to school.
12:48And good morning, ma'am.
12:50Good morning.
12:52Oh, by the way,
12:53your guardian called
12:54and said he's stopping by today
12:56to pay you a visit.
12:57Oh, I think he has something important
12:58to give to you.
13:02Come on, don't worry about it.
13:04After all, he's really not as bad
13:05as you make him out to be.
13:07But you already know that, right?
13:14How about we have him come
13:15to the drama club room?
13:16If we do that,
13:17you won't be so nervous around him, right?
13:19You don't have to be scared.
13:21We'll be with you.
13:22We can do it together, right, Kotomi?
13:28Okay.
13:34Hello, Kotomi.
13:37Thanks for coming.
13:38I'm sorry if you had to go out of your way.
13:40Please, think nothing of it.
13:42I'm happy to be here.
13:49Father's briefcase.
13:51Mom?
13:56It arrived late last night
13:57at the research laboratory.
13:59It belonged to Dr. Ichinose,
14:01without a doubt.
14:02I opened it myself to confirm it.
14:04Once I saw what was inside,
14:06I knew I had to bring it to you
14:07as soon as possible.
14:10Do you mean you found the thesis?
14:12Open it and see.
14:21It's all right.
14:23We're here for you, Kotomi.
14:24Yeah, he's right.
14:25Come on, you can do it.
14:31We're here for you, Kotomi.
14:37We're here for you.
14:59so do you know what it says you think i can read english let me see it says something like
15:05if you
15:06find this suitcase please take it to our daughter at the bottom it's signed k and m in this case
15:13k
15:14and m are the initials of kataro ichinose and mazue ichinose in other words katomi's parents
15:21they always signed their joint research theses that way and this looks just like father's
15:25handwriting it must have gotten lost at sea after the plane crash who knows how long it drifted out
15:30there it may have taken years for it to wash ashore eventually i imagine someone found it read the
15:37letter and passed it on to someone else it probably continued like this for quite some time passing
15:43from hand to hand from country to country that suitcase has gone on a long journey to arrive here
15:49today even the bear looks like it's been handled quite a bit who knows how many people have taken
15:54care of it over the years you probably still don't know what was in that envelope you burn do you
16:01i'm sure you would be relieved to know the truth you mean it wasn't mother and father's thesis
16:10the truth is a secondary copy of that thesis never existed
16:15your father was making revisions up until the very last minute
16:19i'm sure he didn't have time to make a copy before the trip what was inside the envelope i burned
16:24the truth is it was a catalog of stuffed animals so they could pick out the perfect teddy bear for
16:29your birthday until today you probably wouldn't have believed me even if i had told you
16:35well this bear here doesn't seem so far-fetched i still remember what he said to me for the first
16:42time
16:42my little daughter told me what she wanted for her birthday it was something so simple but when he
16:47said that his face lit up with joy but wait the barren note weren't the only things in the suitcase
16:52right
16:53what about mother and father's thesis you have it right there
17:11two kutomi even if your life is full of tears and sorrow this world is
17:16still a beautiful place this is father's handwriting
17:27and this is mom's although this suitcase may have held their thesis at some point somewhere along
17:33the way your mother and father decided to replace it with something they thought was more important
17:39your parents were striving to find the purest and most beautiful way to describe how this world was
17:44formed i like to believe that what you see before you is their answer and to be honest never before
17:51have i seen words as beautiful and eloquent as those written in that letter until the very end
17:56your parents thought only of your happiness and cherished nothing greater than your love
18:03mother father i've been waiting all this time i've been alone for as long as i could remember
18:10but just when i thought i had nothing else in this world when i thought that all i could do
18:15was cry
18:16tomoya came to rescue me so you don't have to worry about me anymore i'm finally happy now very very
18:25happy
18:26so now now i can finally say it

18:45that suitcase has traveled on a long journey in every corner of the world
18:52from sun parched deserts to frozen cities buried in snow from high mountain tops to rolling green
18:58valleys from one hand to another it was entrusted with care until it could finally reach its destination
19:06if you find this suitcase please take it to our daughter

21:31I hope you don't mind, but I went ahead and invited my mom and dad too.
21:35Once everyone else shows up, we can open presents and stuff like that.
21:39Sounds good, I made some dessert for us too.
21:42And knowing you, you probably made too much again.
21:46Yeah, but it's a party so you're supposed to have too much.
21:49Besides, I invited a lot of people, it'll be a big deal just like the concert.
21:54Hey, don't you think you might be overdoing it a little bit?
