00:07.020 --> 00:07.830
Hey...

00:08.380 --> 00:10.760
This ship doesn't look all that old.

00:13.250 --> 00:17.130
I finally just remembered everything.

00:17.840 --> 00:19.810
I found the suitcase, and...

00:19.810 --> 00:21.880
Your suitcase?

00:21.880 --> 00:24.970
That's where the real me is.

00:24.970 --> 00:25.770
Huh?

00:25.770 --> 00:26.730
What does that mean?

00:27.220 --> 00:28.510
Hairi...

00:28.510 --> 00:29.600
Thanks.

00:30.050 --> 00:32.260
For coming along with me.

00:32.260 --> 00:34.740
For making my dream come true.

00:36.880 --> 00:39.380
You see, I...

00:39.380 --> 00:41.920
I think you're...

00:49.510 --> 00:50.840
Bye-bye.

01:03.230 --> 01:04.060
Kamome—

01:04.930 --> 01:05.950
Kamome?

01:06.680 --> 01:07.940
Kamome!

01:14.880 --> 01:17.450
Takahara, how are the goggles performing?

01:17.750 --> 01:20.570
They work great.

01:20.570 --> 01:23.200
But why do you have night vision goggles?

01:23.630 --> 01:25.330
Just in case.

01:25.330 --> 01:28.920
So, where'd you lose the suitcase?

01:29.320 --> 01:31.580
I think it was around here.

01:32.400 --> 01:33.960
I'm positive it was.

01:33.960 --> 01:36.450
I got swept away and nearly drowned.

01:36.450 --> 01:38.640
Hey, is that it there?

01:42.260 --> 01:45.070
Man, this is a hell of a cave.

01:45.070 --> 01:48.380
I bet we could use this to attract tourists.

01:48.380 --> 01:50.730
There were plans at town hall for that.

01:51.080 --> 01:55.110
But, well, it's hard to make 
sure it's safe and all that.

01:55.690 --> 01:58.600
They consulted with a few 
companies to do some studies.

01:58.600 --> 01:59.840
Hey, over here.

02:00.940 --> 02:03.020
What do you think these switches are for?

02:03.020 --> 02:04.620
Maybe they're light switches.

02:05.140 --> 02:07.590
Guys, take off your goggles.

02:11.040 --> 02:13.630
You said you nearly drowned here?

02:13.630 --> 02:15.500
I think so...

02:16.490 --> 02:19.180
But it certainly wasn't this shallow.

02:19.690 --> 02:22.760
There's no way I'd drown
 in a stream like this.

02:25.940 --> 02:28.640
So then... what happened?

02:37.540 --> 02:38.750
<i>This is...</i>

02:39.160 --> 02:40.900
<i>her "real me"?</i>

02:40.900 --> 02:43.160
Is that a woman's underwear?

02:45.490 --> 02:48.620
Huh? Oh, hey, you're right!

02:48.620 --> 02:50.340
How'd this get here?

02:50.340 --> 02:51.620
That's so weird!

02:51.620 --> 02:52.900
I see.

02:52.900 --> 02:54.130
Yup, I see.

02:56.040 --> 02:59.600
I'm sorry! Please don't 
ask any further questions!

03:01.350 --> 03:02.470
I won't.

03:02.470 --> 03:05.180
I want nothing to do with this.

03:15.800 --> 03:16.820
What's this?

03:16.820 --> 03:19.740
The Adventures of the Higenekos

03:16.820 --> 03:19.740
<i>The Adventures of the Higenekos</i>?

03:28.770 --> 03:30.620
<i>I recognize this!</i>

03:31.060 --> 03:33.620
<i>I read this book a long time ago.</i>

03:34.800 --> 03:37.670
<i>A girl named Kamome comes to summer camp.</i>

03:38.420 --> 03:42.420
<i>She's always by herself,
unable to fit in with the other kids.</i>

03:42.850 --> 03:48.930
<i>One day, she sneaks into her archaeologist 
father's study and finds a map.</i>

03:49.940 --> 03:53.060
<i>She works up the courage 
to talk to the other kids.</i>

03:53.710 --> 03:58.070
<i>They form the Higenekos 
and set out on an adventure.</i>

04:01.780 --> 04:02.760
It can't be...

04:05.300 --> 04:06.580
<i>In the book,</i>

04:06.580 --> 04:10.990
<i>Kamome lives in a rented home on 
a smaller island away from the main island.</i>

04:11.580 --> 04:13.960
<b>Call time</b>

04:11.840 --> 04:13.960
<i>A small inhabited island, you say?</i>

04:14.400 --> 04:15.150
<i>All right.</i>

04:15.150 --> 04:16.640
<i>I'll look into it.</i>

04:16.640 --> 04:17.660
Thanks.

04:19.310 --> 04:23.610
<i>There's a small island near the 
inlet where you said you arrived.</i>

04:24.260 --> 04:26.470
<i>It's privately owned.</i>

04:52.350 --> 04:53.450
Excuse me.

04:57.090 --> 04:58.160
Who are you?

04:58.160 --> 05:00.590
Er, u-uh...

05:00.590 --> 05:02.590
Sorry, I'm...

05:04.090 --> 05:05.180
Oh.

05:06.020 --> 05:09.440
Did you come to deliver that suitcase?

05:10.620 --> 05:11.470
Um...

05:11.860 --> 05:14.640
That belongs to me.

05:18.150 --> 05:20.730
Does that mean you're Kamome's...

05:21.400 --> 05:23.030
You know Kamome?!

05:24.680 --> 05:25.680
Um...

05:26.620 --> 05:28.460
I'm Takahara Hairi.

05:29.780 --> 05:32.880
My name is Kushima Sagi.

05:34.780 --> 05:37.370
Kamome is my daughter.

05:39.880 --> 05:41.210
Finland?

05:41.210 --> 05:42.260
Yes.

05:42.260 --> 05:45.210
Kamome's been there for two years now.

05:45.770 --> 05:50.470
I don't know how much Kamome 
told you when you met her.

05:51.300 --> 05:56.980
But you came all the way here to see her,

05:57.390 --> 06:01.360
so I think it's all right for me to tell you.

06:02.380 --> 06:03.520
As her mother.

06:05.490 --> 06:06.780
Ten years ago,

06:06.780 --> 06:12.280
her father worked at a university, 
studying plants and animals.

06:12.280 --> 06:15.180
We stayed here on this island for a time

06:15.180 --> 06:18.290
when invited to do some 
fieldwork for a company.

06:18.290 --> 06:23.380
My daughter's been sickly ever since 
she was little, so she doesn't have any friends.

06:23.380 --> 06:26.920
She spent most of her time reading.

06:27.340 --> 06:30.720
What she really wanted 
to do was go out and explore.

06:30.720 --> 06:33.050
But she couldn't go anywhere.

06:33.050 --> 06:37.530
You could often find her, nose in a book, 
while sitting atop this suitcase.

06:37.530 --> 06:43.720
It used to belong to her father.
It's traveled all over the world.

06:43.720 --> 06:46.320
I'm sure that's why she liked it so much.

06:47.300 --> 06:54.580
As an author myself, I wrote a novel 
featuring her as the protagonist.

06:54.580 --> 06:57.560
And that's <i>The Adventures of the Higenekos</i>.

06:58.600 --> 07:02.250
It was something she said
 that gave me the idea.

07:02.350 --> 07:14.890
<b>Torishirojima</b>

07:02.890 --> 07:07.580
There's a pirate ship on this island 
with a mountain of treasure!

07:07.580 --> 07:10.240
It was just a child's imagination, of course,

07:10.240 --> 07:14.890
but it started getting me excited too,
 so I decided to write a book.

07:15.330 --> 07:19.720
And the setting for it 
was based on Torishirojima.

07:19.720 --> 07:20.640
Yes.

07:21.550 --> 07:26.190
Then the summer after the 
book was published...

07:26.190 --> 07:29.820
Mom, I want a ship!

07:29.820 --> 07:32.490
Are you saying that ship...

07:32.490 --> 07:35.790
I had it brought in at Kamome's request.

07:35.790 --> 07:38.320
She wanted to turn it into a pirate ship.

07:40.370 --> 07:44.500
She had this grand plan in her mind.

07:44.780 --> 07:50.290
Something beyond even me, a writer.

07:50.290 --> 07:54.650
Okay, Mom, we're going to recreate 
the adventure in that book.

07:54.650 --> 07:56.140
Recreate the adventure?

07:56.140 --> 07:57.180
Yeah!

07:57.180 --> 07:58.600
It's not just a book anymore!

07:58.600 --> 08:02.250
We're gonna bring a map with us
 and there'll be a real pirate ship!

08:06.960 --> 08:08.280
Takahara-san...

08:08.280 --> 08:08.900
Yes?

08:09.420 --> 08:12.470
Have you taken a look inside 
the captain's cabin?

08:12.470 --> 08:13.340
No.

08:13.340 --> 08:14.910
It was locked.

08:15.740 --> 08:20.350
That's where her most cherished 
treasure is hidden.

08:31.610 --> 08:39.550
We bought the island and inlet that 
inspired my book ten years ago.

08:40.180 --> 08:42.930
And this year, if everything was complete

08:43.520 --> 08:47.440
and she was well enough,
we were going to invite everyone.

08:50.040 --> 08:51.310
What's this?

08:51.310 --> 08:52.690
<i>That was so much fun!</i>

08:52.690 --> 08:55.150
<i>I was excited the whole 
time I was reading it!</i>

08:55.150 --> 08:57.250
<i>I'm never going to forget it!</i>

08:57.250 --> 08:59.120
<i>I wish I had friends like her!</i>

08:59.120 --> 09:01.720
<i>Where is the story set?</i>

08:59.120 --> 09:04.660
Where is the story set?

09:01.720 --> 09:04.660
<i>I wanna go adventuring 
with Kamome-chan's team!</i>

09:04.660 --> 09:07.010
<i>I wanna know what happens after.</i>

09:07.010 --> 09:08.700
<i>I'll wait as long as it takes!</i>

09:08.700 --> 09:10.180
<i>I love Taka-kun!</i>

09:10.180 --> 09:11.770
<i>I want to marry him!</i>

09:11.770 --> 09:14.920
<i>Kamome-chan, please let 
me join the Higenekos!</i>

09:17.180 --> 09:20.050
Takahara Hairi

09:20.050 --> 09:23.350
<i>I thought Kamome-chan 
was amazing and courageous.</i>

09:23.350 --> 09:25.570
<i>There's no one like her in my class.</i>

09:25.570 --> 09:30.060
<i>I would love to be friends 
with a girl like her.</i>

09:37.730 --> 09:38.680
Yeah.

09:38.680 --> 09:40.660
Could you make it an express delivery?

09:42.260 --> 09:43.210
Mom?

09:43.930 --> 09:44.900
Thanks.

09:48.660 --> 09:51.880
Takahara-san, were you
 on the phone with your family?

09:53.610 --> 09:54.880
Are you going home?

09:59.350 --> 10:00.830
I'm not.

10:00.830 --> 10:02.440
I see.

10:02.440 --> 10:05.030
I just asked to have some stuff sent.

10:05.030 --> 10:06.730
Some stuff?

10:11.610 --> 10:12.860
There it is.

10:11.610 --> 10:14.730
The Adventures of the Higenekos

10:16.150 --> 10:18.900
Kushima Kamome

10:18.900 --> 10:21.470
<i>Thank you for your letter.</i>

10:21.470 --> 10:27.790
<i>In the end, Kamome and the gang promise 
to meet up and find the pirate ship again.</i>

10:27.790 --> 10:31.200
<i>They promise to make it 
an even bigger adventure!</i>

10:31.200 --> 10:39.090
<i>If you hold on to this memory, I'll invite you
on an amazing adventure ten years from now.</i>

10:39.480 --> 10:42.800
<i>I'd love to see you then.</i>

10:45.070 --> 10:49.470
<i>She'll invite me on an amazing 
adventure ten years later?</i>

10:49.470 --> 10:52.810
<i>Kamome was really trying 
to make good on that.</i>

10:53.510 --> 10:54.190
<i>But...</i>

10:54.980 --> 10:57.360
Kamome collapsed?

10:58.120 --> 11:01.110
She's always been in poor health.

11:01.900 --> 11:05.530
Her father died young as well.

11:05.530 --> 11:06.870
Of the same illness.

11:07.740 --> 11:12.260
Did you say you found
 this suitcase in the cave?

11:12.260 --> 11:13.130
Yes.

11:13.690 --> 11:15.750
However did it end up there?

11:16.120 --> 11:19.690
I brought this suitcase with me to the island,

11:19.690 --> 11:23.930
but I lost it when we landed on the shore.

11:23.930 --> 11:25.670
You did?

11:25.670 --> 11:26.570
Yes.

11:26.570 --> 11:30.540
I had a strange experience 
when we arrived here.

11:31.330 --> 11:37.260
I only took my eyes off the suitcase 
for a moment, but it disappeared.

11:37.260 --> 11:39.040
What could have happened?

11:39.040 --> 11:43.740
I've seen those butterflies before.

11:44.090 --> 11:51.050
Come to think of it, maybe they 
had something to do with Kamome.

11:53.090 --> 11:56.130
<i>If Kamome had gotten her wish...</i>

11:56.130 --> 12:00.360
<i>If we'd passed through the cave 
and actually found the pirate ship...</i>

12:00.900 --> 12:04.710
<i>If her plan had worked out 
as she'd envisioned...</i>

12:05.430 --> 12:07.460
<i>I'd have showered her with praise.</i>

12:07.460 --> 12:09.640
<i>She's amazingly creative.</i>

12:10.370 --> 12:12.430
<i>But she ran out of time.</i>

12:12.720 --> 12:15.420
<i>If she could've spent 
just one more summer here,</i>

12:15.420 --> 12:17.440
<i>her plan would have come to fruition.</i>

12:17.960 --> 12:21.190
It's more like a ghost 
ship than a pirate ship.

12:21.190 --> 12:23.700
We should start by repainting it.

12:23.700 --> 12:25.860
It's gonna need new parts.

12:25.860 --> 12:28.450
Let's see if we can get our 
hands on materials for cheap.

12:28.450 --> 12:30.660
Sure. Thanks.

12:51.900 --> 12:53.470
Kamome...?

12:55.640 --> 12:57.230
Hey. You awake?

12:57.620 --> 12:59.550
I think I am.

13:00.230 --> 13:02.530
I'd better not be sleeping right now.

13:02.530 --> 13:05.080
Maybe this is all a dream.

13:05.080 --> 13:07.380
Where were you?

13:07.380 --> 13:08.550
Nowhere.

13:09.140 --> 13:10.830
I was here watching.

13:11.300 --> 13:12.910
The whole time.

13:14.330 --> 13:16.030
I see.

13:16.030 --> 13:18.240
Sheesh.

13:18.240 --> 13:21.940
So you were the one who set up the
keys and the ship and everything?

13:21.940 --> 13:23.280
Sorry.

13:23.280 --> 13:25.840
I had no memory of it either, though.

13:26.640 --> 13:29.100
I'd forgotten everything.

13:29.100 --> 13:33.680
I spent almost all day every day 
bedridden in a hospital overseas.

13:34.840 --> 13:39.930
Eventually, I couldn't really 
tell when I was awake or asleep.

13:40.410 --> 13:45.340
Then it stops being clear 
what's real and what isn't.

13:46.500 --> 13:48.000
It's so strange.

13:48.000 --> 13:49.740
I was in bed,

13:49.740 --> 13:55.790
and the memories that were only ever 
in a book suddenly became reality.

13:56.930 --> 13:59.170
I wonder how everyone's doing.

13:59.170 --> 14:03.700
Do you think they still remember me?

14:04.400 --> 14:08.680
I'm gonna get better and see everyone again...

14:09.340 --> 14:14.690
at the pirate ship we found ten years ago.

14:15.720 --> 14:19.720
This summer, I came to the island

14:19.720 --> 14:24.750
to chase my dream, 
dragging along my mother's suitcase.

14:25.240 --> 14:28.650
I became a part of the dream.

14:28.980 --> 14:33.910
I really became Kamome, 
the protagonist in the novel.

14:34.270 --> 14:39.030
But I remembered when I arrived 
on this ship with you, Hairi...

14:40.150 --> 14:43.670
that it was all a story from a book.

14:45.030 --> 14:50.680
Hairi, you made my dream come true.

14:53.870 --> 14:55.670
I see.

14:56.350 --> 15:03.300
I'm here in front of you because
 I wanted to see you one last time.

15:03.300 --> 15:04.410
One last time?

15:06.600 --> 15:09.650
You see, I'm here to say goodbye.

15:10.660 --> 15:12.570
I have to go.

15:12.570 --> 15:13.450
Where?

15:13.950 --> 15:16.820
You're overseas right now, aren't you?

15:16.820 --> 15:18.590
Are you going back there?

15:18.590 --> 15:19.530
No.

15:22.530 --> 15:25.290
Somewhere further.

15:25.830 --> 15:27.380
Further?

15:31.200 --> 15:33.820
Hairi, thank you.

15:34.350 --> 15:37.140
For making my dream come true.

15:37.140 --> 15:40.600
And for becoming my friend.

16:11.890 --> 16:14.300
I finally know what "bwuh" means.

16:15.930 --> 16:19.680
You coughed as you were about 
to say, "You're so adorabwuhl."

16:27.400 --> 16:28.230
Kamome!

16:36.080 --> 16:39.600
<i>Even if what happened on this island 
was a dream or a hallucination,</i>

16:40.160 --> 16:45.580
<i>I'm going to spend the rest of my time
 on the things that I believe in.</i>

16:48.550 --> 16:51.250
Takahara-san, lunch is ready.

16:51.700 --> 16:52.880
Oh, okay.

16:52.880 --> 16:55.170
What are you writing?

16:55.170 --> 16:56.010
Letters.

16:56.010 --> 16:58.510
That's a lot of letters you're writing.

16:58.510 --> 16:59.500
Yeah.

16:59.500 --> 17:03.610
<i>I'm going to meet up with the Higenekos 
at the pirate ship again.</i>

17:03.610 --> 17:05.840
<i>I'm going to make her dream come true.</i>

17:11.630 --> 17:13.870
Why wait ten years?

17:13.870 --> 17:17.780
You could've given them the location
 when you received the fan mail.

17:18.060 --> 17:20.900
I suggested that too.

17:20.900 --> 17:22.870
But Kamome refused.

17:23.630 --> 17:28.240
She was worried that, since she was the 
model for the Kamome in the story,

17:28.240 --> 17:30.750
they might be disappointed when they saw her.

17:30.750 --> 17:33.880
If... When I get better someday,

17:33.880 --> 17:37.590
I'm gonna be a good leader like Kamome.

17:37.940 --> 17:40.500
That's when I want to meet them.

17:40.500 --> 17:42.820
She was a timid girl.

17:42.820 --> 17:45.240
She tried so hard.

17:45.730 --> 17:48.340
It was slow, but she was getting better.

17:49.450 --> 17:55.320
She could almost move 
around like a normal girl.

18:00.350 --> 18:01.640
I'm sorry.

18:05.050 --> 18:08.460
To be honest, there's something
 I haven't told you.

18:09.760 --> 18:11.730
Just before this summer,

18:13.020 --> 18:16.130
Kamome fell into an eternal sleep.

18:18.150 --> 18:21.010
Thank you, Takahara-san.

18:21.680 --> 18:25.640
Meeting you made coming 
back to this island worth it.

18:35.380 --> 18:37.570
There's something I haven't told you too.

18:40.620 --> 18:41.660
I see...

18:42.130 --> 18:44.570
You really went on the adventure.

18:45.320 --> 18:50.800
In truth, I wanted to thank her.

18:52.780 --> 18:54.890
I wanted to finish the ship.

18:55.480 --> 18:57.540
I wanted her to see it.

18:58.710 --> 18:59.730
I...

19:00.690 --> 19:02.080
I'm certain...

19:06.180 --> 19:09.360
I loved her.

19:13.860 --> 19:15.150
A big cloth?

19:15.150 --> 19:16.240
Yes.

19:16.790 --> 19:20.280
You'd think if anyone would have one, 
she would, but it doesn't look like it.

19:20.660 --> 19:21.920
Okay.

19:22.980 --> 19:25.530
By the way, I haven't seen Umi-chan.

19:25.530 --> 19:26.910
She went home yesterday.

19:26.910 --> 19:27.640
What?

19:28.820 --> 19:30.950
She didn't say anything to me.

19:30.950 --> 19:32.440
That's disappointing.

19:32.440 --> 19:35.950
She was curious about you, though.

19:35.950 --> 19:37.380
What's that supposed to mean?

19:41.270 --> 19:44.010
<i>I got everything set up, but...</i>

19:44.340 --> 19:46.550
<i>Are they really going to come?</i>

19:46.550 --> 19:48.750
<i>What if no one shows up?</i>

19:49.240 --> 19:51.110
<i>No, I have to believe.</i>

19:51.110 --> 19:52.590
<i>This was Kamome's wish.</i>

19:53.790 --> 19:54.860
Shiroha!

19:55.740 --> 19:57.290
Y-Yes?

19:57.290 --> 19:59.010
Do you have a big cloth?

20:00.070 --> 20:01.400
What do you need it for?

20:01.400 --> 20:02.400
A flag.

20:03.070 --> 20:04.030
I know!

20:04.030 --> 20:05.620
Shiroha, can you draw?

20:05.620 --> 20:06.530
Huh?

20:17.920 --> 20:20.340
Man, that's a lot of people.

20:20.340 --> 20:21.630
You called them over?

20:21.630 --> 20:22.800
No.

20:23.400 --> 20:25.380
I wasn't the one who invited them.

20:25.380 --> 20:26.470
Who did, then?

20:27.350 --> 20:28.470
Kamome.

20:28.470 --> 20:30.720
Who are all these people?

20:31.090 --> 20:32.230
Shiroha!

20:32.580 --> 20:34.000
Did you get it done?

20:34.000 --> 20:36.250
I did, but...

20:37.860 --> 20:39.140
Can I take a look?

20:39.140 --> 20:40.130
Sure.

20:43.530 --> 20:46.780
P-Please go easy with the criticism.

20:47.110 --> 20:48.390
Wow...

20:48.870 --> 20:50.260
It's fantastic!

20:48.870 --> 20:50.260
Sorry!

20:51.870 --> 20:54.840
It's great! Just amazing!

20:54.840 --> 20:57.250
Thank you very much.

20:57.520 --> 21:00.330
No, thank <i>you</i>.

21:09.890 --> 21:11.280
<i>Hey, Kamome.</i>

21:11.890 --> 21:17.060
<i>If you're still sleeping somewhere 
far away and you see this...</i>

21:17.700 --> 21:18.900
<i>It's no dream.</i>

21:19.590 --> 21:22.030
<i>This is reality, and you made it happen.</i>

21:22.030 --> 21:23.650
<i>Your real memories.</i>

21:24.830 --> 21:25.860
Oh, I see you.

21:28.350 --> 21:29.380
You...

21:29.380 --> 21:30.390
Heya.

21:30.390 --> 21:33.830
I swear. So you <i>were</i> here the whole time.

21:34.130 --> 21:38.280
I had to see the ship done, you know?

21:38.280 --> 21:39.870
Of course.

21:39.870 --> 21:45.840
I'm not really supposed to be
 here anymore, though.

21:46.870 --> 21:48.090
I see.

21:48.430 --> 21:53.740
Listen, I really wanted 
to go on lots of adventures,

21:53.740 --> 21:57.550
just like what I did with you this summer.

21:57.550 --> 22:00.350
I wanted... I wanted...

22:00.900 --> 22:03.150
Then let's go adventuring.

22:04.260 --> 22:06.010
That was the promise, right?

22:06.010 --> 22:11.240
We'll meet ten years from now
and set out on an adventure on this ship.

22:12.240 --> 22:13.390
Yeah.

22:13.390 --> 22:15.750
I'll go on a journey.

22:15.750 --> 22:20.380
I'll take this ship across the sea, and...

22:20.380 --> 22:22.380
And we'll meet again.

22:22.710 --> 22:23.460
Yeah!

22:27.560 --> 22:30.340
Well, the wind's just right.

22:30.340 --> 22:31.460
Give us your orders.

22:31.460 --> 22:32.510
Me?

22:32.510 --> 22:33.770
Of course.

22:33.770 --> 22:35.010
You're our leader.

22:36.450 --> 22:37.880
You're right.

22:37.880 --> 22:38.520
Okay.

22:38.520 --> 22:42.190
Higenekos, away!

23:02.270 --> 23:04.890
<i>Summer's ending again.</i>

23:18.390 --> 23:21.980
<i>I'll sail the seven seas to meet you.</i>

23:22.530 --> 23:24.060
<i>With love,</i>

23:24.060 --> 23:27.130
<i>Kushima Kamome, captain of the Higenekos.</i>
