Lucky TV Shopping!

We have a hot deal for today's

Lucky TV Shopping.

Thank you as always.

It comes with this cookbook

which contains 40 recipes.

So it's beginner-friendly.

Simply grill, simmer, steam, and boiI.

It's easy and convenient.

This is a big hit product.

onIy 9,999 yen!

What!?

Is it that inexpensive?

We are all alone.

We're born alone,

live alone, die alone.

This is my house.

Our breakfast, Omelet de Provence.

Dad cooks it for Mum every day.

But Mum's not interested in the omelet.

She's into donating to

poor children overseas.

What are you doing?

Be careful when you're eating.

Mum's not interested in me.

And Dad's only interested in Mum.

Ouch... oh...

What? Takashi, what happened?

Call an ambulance!

Please get me Mr. Okano!

Hey, what happened?

Yes! I did it!

Please come in.

Excuse me...

Is it true that Nami...

Where are your parents?

Um, they said they're too busy.

I asked you to make sure

your parents would come, didn't I?

Yes...

Are you aware of what she's done?

I haven't really understood

the situation.

She severely injured her classmate.

I'm so sorry. l really am.

I'm really, really sorry...

Little victims of poverty and despair

who live on the other side of the globe.

Love saves the earth.

Every day, Mum was concerned

about the future of children overseas.

The kids need my help.

I need to go at all cost.

Good bye.

One day, she finally left to go beyond

the sea and never came back.

Ever since then, Dad cooked nothing

but Omelet de Provence.

And got himself a mistress.

The name was Atsuko, she said.

Two of them would often disappear

into the secret room.

I called the mistress Akko-chan.

Akko-chan of Secret Room.

Nami.

Nami, wake up.

Sis?

You know what.

I decided to live with my boyfriend.

I'm gonna make a normal family

with him.

I'm sorry.

What on earth is a normal life?

What is a normal family?

My big sister ran off

with a normal guy,

and l was left all alone.

Now, the trade-in price is 1 0,000 yen.

And the price for this is?

It's 34,800 yen.

Remember, the trade-in price

for this rice cooker is 1 0,000 yen,

"2 months later"

digital camera is...

Nami.

Wait!

Dad, please wait.

Don't ignore your daughter.

Please don't ignore me!

Please.

Don't ignore me.

After all, we are all alone.

We're all alone until we die.

How silly I was to have been

overthinking.

Half a year later,

Akko-chan disappeared,

and Dad committed suicide.

Today, we have a new diamond ring.

How would you like it?

Here you are.

Please take a look.

When l turned 20, l inherited a

small fortune from Dad.

l'm enjoying every day

as if those days were not real.

I have a hobby now.

Found a Solitarian.

I called those who'd gone crazy

due to loneliness "Solitarians".

And l spent all my time

on Solitarian-watching.

That's cute.

The ecstasy l feel when l spot

an A-rank Solitarian is exceptional.

"Solitarian Observation Diary"

I observe their behaviours in detail

and keep a record.

"Found a new-type Solitarian!!! !"

There are various kinds of Solitarians.

Their ecological systems are diverse.

It is said that she lost her sick only son

on a muggy summer night.

Her solitude must have been unbearable.

She repeats this prayer 49 times a day.

That's why I call her "Endless Summer".

Her summer never ends.

He wanders about the business district

on the same route almost every day.

His strong spirit makes him take

the determined route despite any obstacles.

People like him must've contributed to

the rapid growth of the Japanese economy.

His nickname is "Mr. Fierce".

I bet he was quite a spirited salesman

when he was young.

Here's the house of a Solitarian

l've had my eye on.

This mail box probably suggests.

Infinite desire is swirling

around this room.

I named the resident

"Mr. Inexhaustible".

Yes!

"Cialis"

(Erectile Dysfunction Pill)

Say cheese!

My neighbour's house

is giving out a bad smell.

I'd appreciate it if you could go

see how he is.

May I have your name and number?

Hello?

Nami?

You're Nami, aren't you?

Damn...

I forgot it was a danger area.

Hey.

What have you been doing?

How come you never answer my call?

Mum, I'm hungry.

Wait for me.

We'll go home soon, OK?

OK...

Hey, are you listening to me?

Good grief.

You got a minute, right?

Hooray!

Watch me.

Hop, skip, jump!

Auntie, watch me again.

Hey, be still! Geez.

Are you eating well?

You're just idling away your time

and not working, right?

Thought she'd behave well when she's

done kindergarten, but I was wrong.

My sister had broken up with the guy

whom she'd run away with,

and married to a guy she'd met

at work 7 years ago.

A pet phrase of hers is...

The ordinary is the best, you know?

You shouldn't spend money on

sketchy things even if you're rich.

- Right?

-Yes.

She loved the ordinary.

What are you doing?

Come on.

- Is that him?

- Must be.

Come on, drop it.

He's "Loony", you know?

What's that?

"Loony of the Central Park".

You know him, right?

Yeah. Heard he's real disgusting.

Rumour says he killed someone.

- Let's go.

- Yeah.

Forget the rumour. He doesn't have
