Strange Did I drop it somewhere?
Um, I found this under the table earlier.
That's my library card!
Thanks. I was looking for it.
THE MYSTERY BEHIND THE LEGEND
OF TURNING YOUNG AGAIN!
Wow, so you want to go
to the faculty of medicine?
I'm Satoshi Takahashi,
a sophomore in that faculty.
Nice to meet you.
Faculty of medicine
So he's a senior there
Studying for the entrance exam?
Yeah. That book
Oh, this?
You know the legend of
turning young again?
Turning young?
There has long been a folklore around
that old people are turning young again.
And that happens once
every a few hundred years
That's been my subject of research now.
There might actually be someone
nearby turning young again.
Oh
So you're applying
because your dad's a doctor?
That's half the reason
My grandparents, you see
No matter how much they suffer,
they always pray for
the well-being of their family.
I've been saved by so many
people like them
So I thought it'd be my turn
to return the favour.
That's all.
Have you told them directly?
No way.
I'd be embarrassed to death.
Now that's a waste.
I bet they'd be moved
to tears if you did.
SOB SOB
Shiori!
Huh? What's happening?
What's up with you two?
A STORY ABOUT A GRANDPA AND GRANDMA
WHO RETURNED BACK TO THEIR YOUTH
A NEW GRANDPA AND GRANDMA HAVE APPEARED
A NEW GRANDPA AND GRANDMA HAVE APPEARED
A New Grandpa and Grandma Have Appeared.
Mino's been acting strange these days
Strange?
I mean, she's been going
home late a lot recently
And she'd just change the subject
every time I asked
She's just at that age already.
No!
She must be hiding something.
Must be that.
Yeah.
She might actually be
joining a weird cult
Or maybe she's dating
a bad guy behind me
EWW, DAD - DON'T TOUCH ME
Eww, Dad. Don't touch me.
Nooo!!
That pure Mino will never return!
What a pain.
Mino will always be herself.
You two know it better, right!
The horror of your own children
being tainted by the filthy adults!
Unlike in the past,
young people these days are exposed
to more information on the net!
I bet Mino's using her sub
to dive into the dark side of society!
What's a sub?
Must mean she's submerging her feet.
Ugh, the rotary phone people
Now, now.
Calm down, will ya?
Mino's generation is a quiet one.
She'll do just fine.
Anyway, Yoshiaki.
Ya keep blabberin' about
yer kid bein' bad
But let me tell ya this as yer mom.
Ya used to be even naughtier back then.
HUH? - YA PICKIN' A FIGHT?
Huh?
HUH? - YA PICKIN' A FIGHT?
Ya pickin' a fight?
I'm sorry.
ARGUMENT REFUTED
THE ONE WHO FIXED ME AFTER A FIGHT IS NOW MY WIFE
The one who fixed me after a fight is now my wife.
THE ONE WHO FIXED ME AFTER A FIGHT IS NOW MY WIFE
Hello.
Sorry, but I have a question
What is it?
About the usual old couple
We haven't seen them recently.
GEH!
Geh!
BADUMP BADUMP
Since we were in primary school,
BADUMP BADUMP
we've always been seeing them,
BADUMP BADUMP
so we're wondering if something happened
Err They, uh
They got sick, so they're restin'!
PANIC
Yeah! We're takin' care of the field
PANIC
as their relatives!
Is that so
Sorry for bothering you
when you're busy.
Careful on yer way home.
I thought they wouldn't believe us,
so we had to lie
TEARS
What good kids!
Grandpa, let's reassure them.
All right
A FEW DAYS LATER
Judging from the uncle's reaction,
they must be really sick
So they're already
Hey!
Boys!
It's been a while.
HAPPY
Hello!
THERE'S SOMETHING TO GAIN AS ONE GROWS OLD
There's something to gain
THERE'S SOMETHING TO GAIN AS ONE GROWS OLD
as one grows old.
THERE'S SOMETHING TO GAIN AS ONE GROWS OLD
I'm off!
Careful on the way.
I guess
I went overboard with her lunch today.
HIROSAKI
Oh, shoot.
Mino, what's up?
I forgot my lunch
Just buy something at the cafeteria stall.
I was having Grandma's lunch
Can only have a few every month
It takes an hour to reach
Mino's school by train.
Grandpa's usin' the truck in the field.
It's impossible to go
after Mino with that.
That means
I can only have her lunch
a few times when I'm staying.
Sorry, Grandma
Hey, look!
What the heck?
You're kidding me!
Mino, behind you!
Behind?
Hey, Mino!
Get off at the next station!
Ya forgot yer lunch!
MY GRANDMA GOT SO POPULAR
MY GRANDMA GOT SO POPULAR
My grandma got so popular.
So you can use this formula here.
See?
Easy, eh?
I went back to how I spoke
in my hometown.
I was raised in my grandma's house,
so it happens sometimes.
No, that's fine
Stop being so conscious about it, idiot.
Shiori, do you have a crush?
No way.
Maybe a calm guy like Grandpa?
Grandpa?
Eh?
No way! Not happening!
Huh? Then what's your type?
What's wrong?
No
By the way, why are you researching
that topic in particular?
Well, I have my reasons.
I guess I can tell you.
There's no one around either.
I wish you could ignore it as a joke
But actually
My grandparents
They're turning young again
There was a golden apple growing
in the garden that day.
Looked like one of them sweets,
so we ate it.
Then the next day
HAJIME TAKAHASHI - SETSU TAKAHASHI
We became like this.
Is she your girlfriend?
She must be!
She's just a friend.
I asked him to let me see you two.
You don't seem so surprised.
I thought you'd be more in shock.
No, I am surprised
How are you doing after?
Nothing out of the ordinary so far.
Don't worry about us.
Just worry about yer study.
Oh, come on, Grandpa.
I want to do this, anyway.
Since my parents divorced,
you two are like my parents now.
At least let me return the favour.
- Besides, you've been caring for me
- This guy
- a lot until now, right?
- He's researching that topic
- He's researching that topic
- for his precious ones
- It'd be nice to have someone
- for his precious ones
- to ask for advice
- The same reason as my picking medicine
- The same reason as my picking medicine
as a major.
There's no one else
to ask for advice.
Every doctor around
can't figure it out either.
Sorry about this.
Even though we just met,
ya had to hear this
Well, it's hard to believe, right?
I believe you.
Shiori?
There's someone
I want to introduce to you.
HAJIME TAKAHASHI
USED TO BE A POLICE OFFICER
Hajime Takahashi.
USED TO BE A POLICE OFFICER
Used to be a police officer.
USED TO BE A POLICE OFFICER
What?!
Yer kiddin'!
The ones turning young again
aren't only us!
I didn't think there was a family
in the same situation as ours.
Thank you for coming all
the way from East Town.
Mrs. Ine, ya have beautiful skin!
What lotion ya use?
Umanoabura? Aloe?
I just wash my face with water, Mrs. Setsu.
Mr. Saito, ya have a nice wife.
Mine ain't that cute at all.
Whatcha sayin'?
She's a pretty one, I tell ya.
My.
So Shiori's ready
to get hitched now, eh?
Time for a celebration.
They're breaking the ice way too fast
It's fine.
They seem to get along well.
They're in the same boat.
They must have no one
to consult with.
I bet they have a lot to vent off.
I guess
We're also going to be old married
people just like them, huh
Well, someday
"We"?
Huh?
Sorry, it's nothing.
That's not what I mean!
It was just a metaphor
Shiori, what's wrong?
Yer all red.
When I used to work
as a live-in innkeeper
I was surrounded with drunk guys.
Telling me to dance,
pour some drinks
They did what they wanted to me.
And then
I was saved
by the man in the next room,
and we started dating since!
Good for ya.
Ain't no guy in this world
that can beat my husband.
My husband too
He gave his life for me.
Though, I admit
that Mr. Hajime's a nice guy.
But no way my husband's
number two in this world.
Hajime's pretty smart and considerate!
He's usually a taciturn man,
but deep inside,
he's always thinking about me!
Grandpa's way beyond considerate!
He always helps out with my work!
He's always thinking about me 24/7!
Mrs. Ine, wanna see
whose husband's the best?
Fine by me!
With that being said
Let's go for a three-round battle!
Don't ya lose!
Grandma, no need to get so worked up.
It's just a friendly game,
so even if we lose
RUMBLE
Matsunosuke! Can you come here?!
I came here as told
What is this?
Mr. Matsunosuke!
Please be our referee!
Oh, it's already startin'
First game out of three,
tug of war for beloved wife!
If you get to where your wife
stands first, that's the finish line.
Dear!
Grandpa!
Just a bit more left!
You're a capable man, aren't you?!
All my memories with Setsu
for half a century
are flashing before me!
If I lose here,
I can't call myself a man!
Grandpa! If you win,
I'll cook your favourite dish!
He's reaching to me so desperately
Poor thing
Just a little more!
Unlike during the sports festival,
he's fighting for my sake
Just for me!
I knew you'd win!
Grandma
Look.
Huh?
Mrs. Ine's out of bounds.
The Saitos are out.
Huh?!
Yeah!
ROUND ONE WINNER
TAKAHASHI COUPLE
Shellfish miso.
A local dish of scallop shells
filled with eggs and miso.
The second game is a food guessing game.
Guess which dish is your wife's
from the two plates.
I can't tell the difference!
Grandpa, you should know already, right?
Believe in your tongue!
The flavour, the texture,
everything is exactly the same
Did they use the same seasoning?
Both of them taste like Setsu's cooking
What's the meaning of this?!
Notice it already, Dear!
They both taste the same
Wait, he didn't mention
I can only choose one
It's both!
Both are Grandma's cooking!
Nice!
Yeah, he didn't say
I had to pick one
What about this one, Grandpa?
It's Grandma's.
Here comes the aeroplane.
What about this one?
This one is not.
It's Mrs. Setsu's.
Dear, we're doin' that too!
No, that'd be too embarrassing
An idiot couple.
ROUND TWO WINNER
SAITO COUPLE
GRANDMA WON'T LET ME FEED HER
Grandma won't let me
GRANDMA WON'T LET ME FEED HER
feed her.
GRANDMA WON'T LET ME FEED HER
All right, time for round three!
What's the challenge now?
We've done physical
and taste battles
Now, time for a battle of intelligence!
Go.
Battle of eye for antiques.
Photo guessing game.
Card game.
Shogi!
Arithmetic.
BAD AT ARITHMETIC
Now, ladies.
Can I ask one thing?
What?
What are we fighting for here?
So the winning husband
is the better husband?
That's what's bugging me.
No, we
We just wanted to show
how great our husbands are
Hey!
Mrs. Setsu! Ya love Mr. Hajime!
Mrs. Ine! Ya love Mr. Shozo!
Let's leave it at that!
There can be no winners among those
who compare their love!
I also have a wife,
but I don't care being
the worst man in the world.
If my dearest love is happy, so be it.
Ya can't call it love without considering
yer partner's feelings!
Hey.
Let go, Shozo! Don't stop me!
Well, I didn't mean it like that
I fell for you again, Dear!
NO WINNER
NO WINNER
Say that one more time, Dear.
NO WINNER
No.
NO WINNER
We completely lost.
THE FEAST CONTINUED UNTIL MIDNIGH
Grandma, teach me how to cook.
Hm?
Eggplant rolled with shiso.
Nope.
Royal fern dressing.
Nope.
- Dried herring
- Nope!
Don't teach me food for old hags!
STAB
So, ya picked karaage in the end, huh?
Why the sudden request?
I study all day at the library on weekends.
I thought I'd make me lunch.
Huh? I thought you hated fried food?
Said ya didn't like the grease.
UGH
It's all in the past now.
I see.
By the way, I just don't want
those things in my lunchbox.
It's not like I hate your cooking.
Teach me how to cook those too.
I guess I can't see her become like that.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Shiori, this karaage is good.
Did you cook it yourself?
No, it's just a leftover.
