a heartless deed.

Makes one

want to die, but

even death isn't

enough.

Even the gods must

take pity on such

wretched people as us.

Sokichi!

Wake up,

stupid monk!

Shut up!

As if that's going to

get the monk!

I won't be preyed on

any longer.

What's going on?

You must be brave,

Sokichi!

You double-crossing

b*tch!

Do as you like!

The lotus flower will take me

to Paradise!

Dead or alive, no one

cared for a rag doll like me!

But Sokichi's pure heart has

shown me the truth and

given me back my soul!

From now on,

no matter how long or short,

I'll live my life

with dignity!

You saved me from

calamity.

You have

the spirit of a Bodhisattva.

PAWNSHOP:

Sorry that

I kept you waiting.

SAISEl SCHOOL

You must be

freezing!

Don't worry about me.

Be off to school!

Oh, wait!

Have these bean rice cakes

on the way.

But... I'm fine!

Please,

you have them.

I feel bad.

I didn't get to cook you

breakfast today.

Please,

take it with you.

You can't possibly study on

an empty stomach.

Osen scraped money together.

She barely paid Sokichi's monthly tuition

and saw him off to school.

Osen returned home and noticed the lamp

as if the last drop of oil was burning out.

It started flickering weakly.

May Sokichi pass his

medical licensing exam soon

and live a happy life.

That is my only

happiness in life.

Hello,

neighbor.

Yes?

I take it that you're

out of food again, huh?

Oh please,

don't say that!

You hear me now?

That's why

I'm telling you to...

Only if you

do as I say.

You surely don't have to

suffer as bad as this.

No initial capital necessary,

you know.

Yes?

You despise it

that much?

A grand design,

isn't it?

Send your brother to school while

you beg me for food!

You rather

both starve?

Perfect!

Lady!

Ma'am!

You'll listen to me?

Then here.

Osen,

did you

grow rich overnight?

I told you it's

a good profession, didn't I?

I didn't prepare

supper tonight.

Let's go eat out.

No, I'll be fine with

the bean rice cakes as usual.

Osen?

Where did these

come from?

It's... nothing.

It'll be horrible

if you catch a cold now.

Your exams are

coming up.

You must eat some good food

and stay healthy.

Come now,

let's go.

The bill.

Eh, huh?

What!

Pickpocketed!

Oh?

Take this for now.

Please!

You must sleep now.

I can't

possibly sleep.

Not while you're studying here.

How could I?

Could it be the man,

who forgot these?

Police!

What're these!

Huh?

A devil of a woman!

Snooping around like that!

My sister would never

do such a thing!

Osen!

Did you really do

something wrong?

Forgive me,

Sokichi.

Your breakfast.

The cooked beans

are there,
