Tokyo sonata Page #5
lt's news to me.
Thing is...
-... l've already passed the written test.
-Wait a minute...
l only have to pass the physical
and the psych exam and l'm in.
So, if you're in the military,
you go to war, right?
Well, it depends.
But you should have consulted us
before now.
Have you told your father?
l see.
The thing is, l'm still a minor,
so l need a parent to sign.
Here and here.
Sign it for me?
lf you won't, it's okay.
There are organisations that'll
sponsor me instead of my parents.
Don't ask some strange organisation
to sign for you.
Do it, then.
Kurosu?
Mr Kurosu passed away. With his wife.
The day before yesterday.
From gas poisoning.
Really?
A double suicide,
but he forced her into it.
-Welcome home.
-Hi.
Just listen to him, dear,
and try not to get angry.
What is it?
l want you to sign these papers for me.
l absolutely forbid it.
Why?
l raised you so you could
lead a happy life.
This couldn't be farther from that goal.
But in the military,
you can work for peace.
That's just rationalising it.
But it's true. Why should l alone
have a happy life?
lt's better to make
The whole world?
What nonsense!
l'm not worried about the world,
That's why Japan's so hopeless.
What?
The American military
protects Japan's peace.
So what?
The reason l want to join
the American military
is to protect you and mum and Kenji.
-That's how it works.
-Don't be a smartarse.
ln this house, l protect you.
That's how it works.
You can't just do whatever you want.
You're the one that needs
l don't want your protection .
Get out, then.
Get out.
Get out!
Forget it.
l'll ask someone else.
Takashi, wait!
Can't you figure out
a better way to talk to him?
Takashi, if you want to leave home,
fine,
but not for America.
Stay in Japan and do
what you can here, understand?
What am l supposed to do?
You say you're protecting us, Dad...
... but what do you do every day?
You can't even answer me.
l have to get ready.
Just listen to what l have to say.
Okay.
You're talented.
Extraordinarily so.
Are there any musicians
in your family?
No.
l see. You were just born with it.
Once in a while,
there are children like you.
ls that so?
to a school specialising in music.
Of course
you'll have to take an exam.
But this is an important discussion
l need to have with your parents.
-lmpossible.
-Why?
My father is against me learning piano.
l didn't realise...
And there's stuff going on at home.
l don't know what'll happen
l can explain it to them.
