Akibiyori Page #3

Synopsis: Family and friends of the late Shuzo Miwa have gathered for his annual memorial service, this one marking the seventh anniversary of his passing. Three of his long time friends - married Shuzo Taguchi, married Soichi Mamiya, and widowed Seiichiro Hirayama - have long known and admitted to each other that they have always been attracted to his widow, Akiko Miwa, who they believe has gotten even more beautiful as she has matured. The three friends take it upon themselves to find a husband for the Miwa's now twenty-four year old daughter, Ayako Miwa, who they believe as beautiful as her mother, and who, as a pure innocent, deserves a good husband. Their self-appointed task is despite them knowing that Ayako does not want them to do so. She doesn't want to get married, at least not yet, as she struggles with her traditional sensibilities in post-war modern Japan. Her first priority as she sees it is to take care of her widowed mother, who would be alone if she were to get married. The diff

113

00:
12:02,780 -- 00:12:05,135

l'm afraid we have to go.

114

00:
12:05,580 -- 00:12:08,856

Thank you so much for coming today.

115

00:
12:08,980 -- 00:12:10,732

Thank you for all your kindness.

116

00:
12:12,260 -- 00:12:16,094

l hope we haven't offended you

with anything we've said.

117

00:
12:16,220 -- 00:12:20,133

ar from it. You kept us entertained.

l hope to see you all again soon.

118

00:
12:20,260 -- 00:12:22,455

-See you later.

-Goodbye.

119

00:
12:22,580 -- 00:12:24,696

-Bye.

-Bye.

120

00:
12:24,820 -- 00:12:26,697

Please excuse us.

121

00:
12:38,340 -- 00:12:42,174

l'll say goodbye here.

Ayako, you know what you're doing, right?

122

00:
12:42,660 -- 00:12:43,615

Yes.

123

00:
12:58,980 -- 00:13:02,450

-So beautiful.

-Yeah.

124

00:
13:03,300 -- 00:13:06,576

l really enjoy talking to girls her age.

125

00:
13:07,620 -- 00:13:10,009

The girl is certainly pretty, but...

126

00:
13:10,740 -- 00:13:12,253

You meant her mother, didn't you?

127

00:
13:13,740 -- 00:13:15,253

She hasn't changed a bit.

128

00:
13:16,260 -- 00:13:18,535

-She's a beauty.

-She is,

129

00:
13:19,500 -- 00:13:21,252

but l thought the daughter was charming.

130

00:
13:21,380 -- 00:13:23,098

Of course she is,

131

00:
13:23,300 -- 00:13:28,090

but Akiko is well over 40 and still...

132

00:
13:28,500 -- 00:13:32,095

lf l had to choose, l'd pick the mother.

133

00:
13:32,780 -- 00:13:34,133

She's a lovely woman.

134

00:
13:35,020 -- 00:13:37,898

She's fantastic.

135

00:
13:38,020 -- 00:13:40,853

-You really think she's that great?

-Absolutely.

136

00:
13:41,620 -- 00:13:46,694

Maybe a man is bound to die young

when he marries someone so beautiful.

137

00:
13:46,940 -- 00:13:50,296

Miwa used up his luck too fast.

138

00:
13:50,980 -- 00:13:53,858

She's developed a new kind of charm lately.

139

00:
13:53,980 -- 00:13:56,369

Yes, l agree. You really think so, huh?

140

00:
13:56,580 -- 00:13:59,492

You can just see it somehow.

141

00:
14:01,100 -- 00:14:03,568

And you,

you're always slow to notice things.

142

00:
14:03,700 -- 00:14:07,932

l see it, too, just not as clearly as you do.

143

00:
14:10,940 -- 00:14:12,612

What's making you all so cheerful?

144

00:
14:13,700 -- 00:14:16,737

-Do you have any sake left?

-Yes.

145

00:
14:20,180 -- 00:14:23,138

Your husband must be

in good health, right?

146

00:
14:23,380 -- 00:14:25,769

Yes, he's perfectly fine, thank you.

147

00:
14:25,980 -- 00:14:27,015

l don't doubt it.

148

00:
14:27,140 -- 00:14:31,133

Of course. He's going to have a long life.

149

00:
14:31,540 -- 00:14:34,657

You never know what'll turn out to be
