Huh, getting married? Yes.
What's this, since when.
Right? Nobody knew
they were going out. Wouldn't think it would be him.
You shouldn't be saying that.
No one would have thought. Now....
Huh, like that? Perhaps, is there something like that
going on with these two? Well,
now, I wonder.. Absolutely nothing.
Well, anyway, congratulations.
And with that, if you could,
President, if you could be the go-between... The go-between?
Yes. Huh? But the go-between
shouldn't be single? Oh that's right.
You know things like this are likely to happen more often.
It will become a problem, president,
if you always stay single. Your one to talk, being single yourself.
Saejima kun, should we get married?
It's really irritating for you to ask that so casually,
please stop. What can I do to get married?
I not free to go to dating parties,
From now on, you won't be able to scope out
the new girls that come to work at the company every year, now.
Right. Really !
Not what I mean, sorry. Sorry, sorry, that's not what I meant.
Well, you shouldn't get married. No wait...
Just joking. Congratulations.
How's the manuscript coming for the expose on the black enterprise? Is it progressing?
I'm sorry, I need a little more time....
Oh, but there is new development.
New development? It will be a groundbreaking book, possibly.
What we talked about the other day? What was it?
Huh? Have you already forgotten?
You said that you would help me with my book.
What? Did I say something like that?
So you were just messing with me when you said that?
No, no, it just seemed a good thing to say at the time.
Well, it has really raised the expectations of the publisher,
you shouldn't have said it.
I'll collaborate with you. What should we start with?
My circumstances aren't so carefree.
Circumstances? Well actually,
My mother keeps nagging me to get married.
Huh, is that right. Right now, I don't want to get married.
Therefore, it's necessary to show I'm fulfilled with my work
being so busy so I can avoid marriage.
It would be OK for you to get married?
After all, Kyoko Senpai, aren't you around thirty?
I will get married someday!
I just don't want my parents telling me what to do.
If you keep up with that, marriage might slip away altogether.
Thanks for your input.
Excuse me ! Bring a bottle of red wine.
Well, usually at a place where more that one train crosses,
it's usually just a flat crossing.
Well that what we call a diamond crossing.
Certainly, certainly.
That, there's one around here, right.
On the Yokosuka line by Taura station, there's two diamond crossings.
What are they talking about? Something about trains I think.
There's not even a third rail. Oh yea yea.
Should we go? Wait a minute, it's that
your talking about a long trip, we'd never make it.
That was a long mixer, wasn't it.
I mean really, when they said, let's go dutch,
we should have known it'd be a dud.
But the karage at that place is good.
Yuri, I guess your only purpose was the food.
Yes. I'll do the same next time.
That , that , are those cheap chopsticks?
Hold on, hold on. Are you alright?
I'm OK. Huh?
Mitamura san. What what?
What, just a minute, this angle. Oh. What?
Somehow you look like. Look like?
Wow, that's a surprise.
Yuri?
Huh ? Yuri?
Hey girl, hey hey,
Hey, you wanna go have a little fun?
Huh, oh sure.
Let's go, come, come.
Hey, hey, Yuri. hold on, Please hold on a minute.
Hold on please, excuse me. What? what?
Sorry, sorry. Yuri,
Yuri, what are you doing!? Huh?
Kyoko senpai. Yes.
You have a nice butt.
What ~!? No, no, no.
I'll sue you. I only
said it to distract myself from how tired I am.
Kyoko senpai, where is your house?
Oh, yea, right there.
Huh?
I told you it's over there didn't I.
Yes, yes, please someday become rich and get a better place.
What ~ ? Look, right there.
I'm letting you off. Wait, wait.
Why wait, we're already here.
In my place? Yes.
You pervert, you came to my place to attack me.
I'm out of strength, really.
Wow, look, look, look...
Oh mother. Mother?
Huh? Your house is in a Buddhist temple?
Yes.
The Temple's been in existence since the Ashikaga Shogun, in Muromachi, Nagaoka city in Niigata,
Kyoko's father is the 37th.
The year before last was the 600 year anniversary.
Eh, ~ that's great.
So Kyoko Senpai is a Buddhist Temple's daughter?
Yes.
She's an only daughter? Only daughter? Huh... that means?
Our son in law, will be the successor.
Oh, ~ No wonder you're telling her to get married.
That's right.
Huh? You've talked about it?
Well, just a little while ago, she really wasn't happy about it though.
What did she say? Of course, she didn't want to marry?
Mmm, well she didn't say she wanted too.
Well, this girl, you know.
By the way. Yes.
What about you? I'm a student.
Huh, a student? Oh well it's just that,
I'm collaborating with her on a book,
we're just business partners.
Well then,
are you two having a relationship with each other.
No, you're wrong, there's nothing of the sort going on!
Is that right? Yes.
This girl came to school in Tokyo,
because she really doesn't want to inherit the temple.
Even though she hasn't finished graduate school,
we're thinking it would be better for her to come home and marry,
but she says she wants to become a professor, in any case, isn't that impossible?
Well, that is a tall hurdle...
Right? Yea.
So thinking about that,
I brought this here to talk about a marriage meeting.
Huh, can I have a peek?
Oh, please, please.
Oh, isn't he fine?
Right, right. Yes.
He's currently serving in the Motoyama Buddhist branch hall in Tokyo.
It is certain he has had excellent training there.
So as you can see,
it's a serious matter for Kyoko, the Temple's only daughter, become the successor.
Excuse me, but for a man in the middle of the night
to be carrying her on his back, well that....
It's not like I wanted to carry her on my back.
What to do, Kyoko senpai was on the side of the road,
"Oh, I can't walk!" she was saying, and sat down,
I couldn't just leave her there like that, could I?
Well, what's with giving this unmarried woman so much to drink.
Well, that's right. Either way, that was bad.
I'm sorry, I didn't know this daughter was so important.
Well, it's not like I was thinking of taking advantage of her.
Taking advantage? Well I didn't do anything,
there are things I won't do.
You really did nothing, right?
Yea, don't be absurd.
Yeah, really,
it looked lovey dubby. Serious?
Well I never thought those two would be like that.
I don't really get men and women.
Kenta senpai, what do you think?
Well, it has nothing to do with me.
What, about Yuri?
Well....
somehow when she saw those two, she got really weird.
Oh really. Oh you know,
it must be that maybe Yuri likes Mitamura san?
Oh, is that right? Yea, isn't it obvious.
Kenta, now might be your chance to get Yuri on the rebound.
Oh go for it, go for it. Shut up.
Kenta senpai, he likes Yuri...
Yes, that's obvious too.
To make a move while someone is on the rebound,
is not what I do.
Oh ~ he's putting on a good show, but he's going.
Yea, he's going. Yea.
Stop.
Huh? Comfort food.
This is comfort food?
There's something wrong with me wanting a large serving of katsu curry with eggs?
There is, you'll get fat.
Does it matter to you if I get fat?
It does. How so?
The star of "Running Zombies"
of course it has to be you.
I'm asking.
What's this, pity?
Of course your in love with Mitamura.
Why, he's old enough to be your father.
You only came here cause your desperate to make your zombie movie.
Why would I be desperate to make the movie!?
Oh really, sorry.
Well, never mind.
I'll think about it.
Oh, mother, how long have you been here?
You drank so much you don't remember.
Here. It's just, the things
that guy says, made me want to drink.
Hey, this person called Mitamura san, what kind of person is he?
"What kind ?" He's just an older student that's come back to school at our university.
Out drinking with a man at night,
it's unthinkable in the country. Oh, you see, that guy
is the president of a company called Tres Fields.
Tres Fields? Somehow that name seems suspicious.
It's not really anything suspicious.
Oh my gosh, are you aiming for his money?
Huh ? Oh... there's no way !
Anyway, because you are our Temple's successor,
you must clearly sever all relations with people like that, right.
Oh, ~ by the way, there's nothing going on
between us anyway. Hmm, I wonder?
Well with what he was saying...?
Huh? Ouch....
A Buddhist Temple, even though it has a lot of land,
the grounds and buildings are exempt from property
and city taxes. Which means,
there is probably no inheritance tax either?
Which means everything a priest takes in, is pure profit...
Excuse me.
Yes, yes. Excuse me.
Huh? Oh Sensei.
Hey, isn't this unusual? Please, please.
Hey, Saejima kun, drinks, bring something to drink.
Don't bother, not staying long. Huh?
The results from your exam the other day,
I just came to tell you, we need to do a thorough exam of your liver.
Oh that's all you came for?
Even though you tell him to get it right away, he's not going.
Please go in right away.
Even though I'm like this, I feel my health is pretty good.
My body is the capital that I use to work. Sensei, you know that, right?
I get a thorough medical examination every year.
In those thorough examinations, nothing has ever been found.
This is just to make sure.
Alright, when I find some spare time, but I'm really busy right now.
If you go today,
I'll reward you with a date. I'll go.
Well, therefore, visualize sticking it on the lower left of the model,
No, no not that, well I'll be back soon.
Hold on just a minute.
How long does the scan take?
It will take an hour to complete. It takes that long?
Oh, well, hello.
Hey, I should be back around 4.
We'll talk then. Yes. yes, good.
Thank you for waiting. Then let's start the scan.
Yes. I'll take your cell phone.
Oh yes. Please.
Yes. Oh Kyoko senpai.
Thank you, kindly for getting me home yesterday.
Kyoko senpai, please lose a little weight.
It was tough carrying you on my back. Don't worry,
nothing like that will ever happen again.
But other than that, Kyoko senpai,
Kyoko senpai, your the daughter of a Buddhist Temple.
You don't look the part at all, I was totally surprised.
More importantly, what else did you do?
My mother had doubts about our relationship.
While I was drunk and passed out,
you said some strange things, right?
Oh, if you'd like, I'll meet with your mother again,
and explain everything clearly? Straight from me.
Huh? You sure are positive.
Actually, there's a few things I'd like to ask your mother.
Free fansub by evbo. Do not hardsub or stream or, or, or, enjoy the show.
It's an honor to meet with Kyoko senpai's mother once again.
Don't say things in such a suggestive manner.
She'll get the wrong impression. Oh, sorry.
I won't say anything she'll misunderstand. Well, you two,
there really isn't anything going on? No, there's not.
At best, I know she has a nice butt.
Huh? Stop !
Anyway, I just wanted to talk with you.
About the business model of a Temple. Business mod...
Well,I looked into Buddhist Temples, and I became really interested.
Oh, the fact that you have interest,
well thank you.
Temples play an important role in providing funeral and memorial services,
and moreover, there are things helpful to those that are living.
Oh, that's right? Well, anyway Temples are sweet.
What's really nice, is there are not taxes.
Huh? There it is.
Well I've heard that everything that a priest takes in,
looking into it, he keeps it all, right.
That's just a different look at it.
The head priest takes a salary from the Temple,
then pays income and local taxes. There is that, but
offerings and gifts, they aren't taxed are they?
That is right. If you look at
offerings and gifts,
isn't it just the same thing as sales for the Temple?
And those sales, are not taxed, right.
Certainly that's how it is!
I wonder if I could make my company a religious organization?
Huh? Kyoko senpai,
it would be better for you to hurry and get married and take over the temple.
After all, the wife of the Temple, will never go hungry.
Are you a left winger anyway? You, from the start,
have been talking like that.... Comparing that
to the uncertain future of a college lecturer,
is very secure. After all,
everyone will certainly die.
The demand for funeral services never goes away, and further,
with the first death anniversary, and the second, you've kept them as customers!
You could even come up with point cards.
And with that, the wedding ceremony is the first thing,
but when they die one at a time, then you have two things.
I wonder who came up with this brilliant business model?
Was it Buddha?
Sorry, but I cannot agree with what you are saying,
Except for the fact,
that Kyoko should take over the temple, that is correct.
Of course there's that tiny point you agree on. No, no no, it's possible
there's a much bigger agreement!
I wonder if there's a way for my company to collaborate with Buddhism?
What if we started a brand of mourning clothes?
You have some suggestion, mother?
It's Mitamura san, right. Yes.
This whole time, all that I have heard come out of your mouth,
is nothing but the money aspect of things.
Because the first thing in business is money. To you,
what does it mean to be successful in life? Huh?
Is it only the accumulation of money?
When you can break off your relationship with money,
you are able to achieve a completely different level of tranquility,
and then you can find true happiness.
This is a teaching of Buddha.
Well, well, there may be such a path.
Sorry to ask, but
what is your ultimate goal?
My ultimate goal?
Grow my company bigger and bigger, rake in more and more profit.
So, it's to become richer and richer.
Is that right? "Is that right?" I said as much.
Your appetites will never be satisfied.
There is never an end to them.
I don't think appetites are a bad thing.
Rather, unquenchable appetites are the motivating force for success.
Oh the ghoul. Ghoul?
You are the same as this. Huh?
The ghoul is suffering from hunger and thirst,
The moment he brings food or drink to his mouth,
it's consumed by fire, and he is never satisfied.
Oh, you know the story well.
My father was always telling it.
If you detach yourself from worldly desires, you will live a peaceful life!
To live peacefully... The life of runt?
What do you mean a runt?
Which is happiness, the winner that's by himself,
or the loser, that lives with his friends helping out those around him
on good terms with everyone?
It seems, this is just the same story.
That's right, it's very sad.
You don't need to be around a person like this.
There's nothing going on.
Sorry to say, you will get your just reward.
It's pointless to curse me.
What, I'll get my just reward.
Really, nothing like that will ever happen, really.
Shin Tokyo Hospital's internal medicine, Kawashima,
I like to discuss your results from the scan we took the other day,
would it be possible for you to come to the hospital the first thing in the morning?
We look forward to seeing you.
Hey.
The other day, thanks.
Hey, the scan results, was there anything?
That will be explained clearly by the Sensei shortly.
You'll be alright, the Sensei will do what ever is needed.
But, will it really be alright?
Honey...
Hello.
Huh?
Anyway, have a look.
It's already to late for treatment.
Isn't it better to
tell them the truth?
It's become like this because he was so busy,
that it was neglected.
"Sorry to say, you will get your just reward."
Mitamura san. Yes.
Have a seat.
Well, there's no problem. Huh?
There's no cirrhosis of the liver,
no swelling in the gall bladder.
there's nothing malignant at all,
no problems at all.
Oh, is that right?
Hereafter, let's keep an eye on things. Well, hey, Sensei.
A few minutes ago? well.... few minutes ago?
A few minutes ago...
Sensei, this is gone bad, it's worn out.
Oh really. Too late for treatment, that?
Oh... then let the office manager know.
Understood.
What is this.
So, the particulars of the scan,
Hey Sensei. Yes.
Why was it necessary for me to be here first thing?
I have an academic conference this afternoon. Academic conf.....
It was because of that? Huh?
Since there was nothing, wouldn't it have been OK
to say so when you called yesterday?
I was nervous the whole time.
Hey Mitamura san. Yes.
Even though I told you there was nothing, there is a small gallstone.
Oh. And with a fatty liver,
and we noticed that your cholesterol levels
are raised just a bit.
If we ignore this, you may have a gallstone attack,
and further, it will lead to alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver.
Anyway, as you age,
your body becomes less effective at handling stress.
If you continue to act like your young,
it's possible that you will just suddenly collapse.
Our lives,
are based on this fragile foundation.
Recognizing that our time is limited, it would be good to consider,
how we want to spend that time, don't you think?
"To you, what does it mean to be successful in life?"
"Is it only the accumulation of money?"
Basics of Buddhism
"The ghoul is suffering from hunger and thirst,
The moment he brings food or drink to his mouth,
it's consumed by fire, and he is never satisfied."
"If you detach yourself from worldly desires,
you will live a peaceful life!"
I'm Akiyama Kyoko.
Glad to meet you, I'm Sooun.
Welcome. Some coffee please.
Be right out.
You recognized me right away?
Yes, it was your head.
Oh that's right.
Well,
I have something I'd like to make clear right from the start.
Your mother said,
that you are very reluctant in coming to a matchmaking meeting, right?
Yea. Because this
deals with things of the human heart it is very understandable.
Oh, I'm sorry.
My mother is staying at my house until I came to the marriage interview.
If after we talk, you don't want to continue,
and end it there, I won't have any problem at all.
I'm sorry.
My parents are just as annoying.
I am the second son, so my older brother will take over our temple.
So they said we should find a temple where you can become a son-in-law.
Is that right?
I've also considered pursuing a regular career path too.
But you know,
I'd like to spend my life studying the teachings of Buddha.
Why did you choose to become a university instructor?
You mean me?
Well I....
Huh, me and Mitamura san?
That wasn't what you think it was.
Well, are you sure? You know,
I recently had a marriage interview. Huh?
What, I never heard anything about that.
Why is that you think I have to tell you everything?
Just to get my mother off my back, I agreed to go meet him.
Oh, so that's what happened.
Which reminds me, why do you shave your head?
You might stop before someone misunderstands?
Well, I never thought of that.... sorry.
And so... Well then,
there is really nothing going on between Mitamura san and me.
But you two went drinking.
Well, that's all it was!
Coming up, we'll be putting out a book we're working on together.
So it's really just work.
Work. Yes.
Hello. What, Yuri, you're here?
Oh right, I have to get somewhere.
Huh? Thanks~.
What? That girl's kind of cute.
Huh?
Shouldn't you get going to find the papers that I asked for?
Yes. Well if you'll excuse me, President.
Oh huh? Oh nothing.
You had something to ask about the book? Oh that's right.
Please, have a seat.
Well, I've been thinking of a plan. Oh.
And thought I'd like to show it to you. Yes, yes.
I went to the marriage interview. Oh, so you went after all.
Well? How was it?
Well, he is a nice guy, but. Either way,
hasn't he been training in the temple, and getting close to enlightenment?
Yea, Huh? I'm so jealous.
What? If he's that good of a person,
wouldn't it be good for you to marry him?
Oh, you're still thinking that?
You mean the temple is for leftists, is that what you're saying?
You know, no matter how much money you have, it doesn't make you happy.
Huh? Studying business management, writing books,
you can become the wife of a Buddhist Temple.
Rather than hanging in there by yourself, wouldn't it be better to have a family?
What is going on? Actually, I recently
had a an MRI done on my liver, and the doctor told me some things.
Oh? This time there isn't anything, but
it's just my good fortune this time,
we never know when we are going to die. Oh.
When I started to think about that, I picked up a few things.
Well, ~ these are good~.
So you've started to look for salvation through the teachings of Buddha?
Not salvation, but the answer.
Answer? Yes. While managing a company,
you never know what things might come up.
I have responsibility to provide a living for my employees.
When I think about that,
it really is quite a difficult thing to do
by myself. Oh, it sure is.
And further, a company isn't just something
that is my own. What the heck is a company?
In the first place, who the heck am I?
Have you found the answer to that?
That's not an answer that can be so easily found,
but it's not so important. Right.
Marriage is like that.
Of course if you don't try it, you won't know~.
Huh? Wait, I don't like where this is going.
Somehow, aren't your feelings all over the place?
Because I love learning, I chose a path to become a teacher,
that's what I thought I wanted, but is it really...
Somehow, I don't really know what I want.
Mitamura san, it's probably
impossible for me to write the book after I get married even though you say.
I would be busy as the Temple wife,
Niigata is a long way from Tokyo and such. Oh, that's so.
Therefore, for now,
I want to only focus on what's
right in front of me, and make this book take shape.
Oh, then there's nothing between those two.
Right, she said absolutely nothing. Oh really.
Yo.
What's wrong? Nothing.
Yuri, Yuri, Yuri. Somethings up, he's really different than usual.
It's just what I heard.
Young men and ladies. Yes.
You guys are all poor. However, you've all come to this second rate university,
you won't have an outstanding education. What your future holds,
I have no idea.
It's bad for us. But you know,
you all have something I don't.
Huh, what?
It's time.
You have plenty of time to live your lives.
Oh ~.
Are you finally going to make your movie? Well yea.
"Running Zombies!"
Isn't this wonderful? Huh?
Whatever you diligently do,
it will give birth to salvation.
Oh yes.
Excuse me president, a new problem's come up. What's wrong?
We were off by a week for the start of the fair.
It was my fault. I am very truly sorry.
is that right?
Well, these kind of things happen. Huh?
It's human to make mistakes. It's important to be aware of this.
Everything in this world is tied together.
Knowing that, you have to know your limits,
and there are things you go through, that bring it together.
Oh... thank you.
The vainglory of heaven and earth. Huh?
When Buddha was born, it is said it was the vainglory of heaven and earth?
I have heard that. It means
we are not the most important thing in this world.
When we realize that our existence is only borrowed,
then we recognize that everything around us is precious,
is what that means. Is that right?
Anyway, aren't there any good men~?
There are no limits to the lusts of man.
Those things are taught in the story of the Fallen ghoul.
Which begs the question, have you fallen?
Fallen Ghoul? Have you lost your mind?
Both of you, do you think your a substance
that will go on forever in this world without changing?
Substance?
Of course you're not. All worldly things are transitory.
What, then the feeling of a parent and child are nothing?
That isn't what I said.
Well then, brother, give me all your money.
Money isn't necessary is it?
You are really in need of salvation. Huh?
Oh, so that's what's going on~.
He's relatively honest, so he's easily influenced.
Really. And, what about your marriage interview?
Well, he's not a bad person,
if I were to marry him, I suppose I would be happy.
I personally like shaved heads. If all you want is a shaved head,
there's one in my office.
But it's important to be balanced with the face.
Well, then, will you get married?
I don't know.
You don't want to take over the Temple?
It's not that I don't like the Temple, but
having to deal with all the parishioners,
I've seen all the trouble it's been for my mother.
There must be much that's difficult.
But to be honest, Kyoko san, I'm a little jealous of you.
Huh? It's just that right now,
you have an opportunity right before you to get married.
Really . Please, it's just like having a delicious plate in front of you.
I should get married too. Who to?
If I had a partner. But I don't want to compromise.
In economic hard times, the numbers of people wanting to marry
seems to increase. Is that just compromising?
Or is it the result of noticing what's really important?
What's really important...
Yes, hello. What's up?
I've emailed you the book manuscript I've written so far.
Hold on a minute.
Yes, yes, it came. Tomorrow,
I'll be meeting the partner with my mother.
Well I'm sure my mother,
will try to finalize things while we're there.
Oh, is that possible?
Well no matter what happens there,
I just wanted to make sure that
I got the manuscript to you.
Understand. I will take the opportunity to read it.
Please.
Then, good night. Good night.
"Somehow, I don't really know what I want."
"Therefore, for now,
I want to only focus on what's
right in front of me, and make this book take shape."
Our conversation the other day was delightful.
Yes.
And with that, now.
Huh? Your answer.
It's still too fast.... It's alright.
In any case, you have to give an answer sometime, right.
I think I would like to get married.
Oh, ~ thank you very much.
And you, what do you think?
Kyoko.
I will
mar...ry y....
mar...ry y...
Oh... why are you here?
Who is this? What is it? This manuscript.
Huh?
My company is not a black enterprise,
is it really so easy for you to make such a conclusion?
That is the result of my thoughts.
Are you really sure? Or did you just throw this together
because you didn't have the time because you're getting married?
Huh, well, Kyoko... That had nothing to do with it.
Because I wrote it isn't a black enterprise, why does that have you so upset?
Certainly working at your company is a challenge.
But in order to achieve anything, great effort is required.
Stress is just natural when you are hit with difficulties.
That's what you think, right? Well yes it is.
You're not one that thinks employees are only to be exploited,
used up and then thrown away, now are you?
I don't think that way do I? Therefore,
it's not a black enterprise.
So what's wrong with me writing it's something different, when it is something different?
As usual, you're so easy ~. Huh?
The line between a black enterprise and one that's not, is ambiguous at best.
Today it's not black, tomorrow it might become black.
A person can be healthy, then suddenly become sick, same thing.
The illness may be progressing inside the body, for all we know.
I'm saying that all you're looking at is the surface.
Then, what do you think I should do?
You should tell how to stop it in here!
In reading this manuscript, I finally get it.
What you
really love, is this work.
You don't just want to criticize black enterprises.
In thinking about this problem,
you're thinking that you can somehow make the world a little better place.
This passion, was relentless in your writing in here.
You need to see this through to the end.
You need to stick to what you love.
Everything is changing.
And with that, can you say
you really don't want to be a part of it,
and just let it all wash away?
I appreciate what you're saying, but
Kyoko san along with me,
has determined to pursue the path of Buddha.
You mustn't interfere with that.
In the teachings of Buddha, there's also this thing
where showing respect for your parents,
is one of the four pillars of Brahma.
You must cherish your parents. That is, you cherish family.
If you stay single, you can do what you want,
but then can you really say you are following the teachings of Buddha?
What? Doesn't the training
to follow Buddha, start by requiring you to leave your family?
If that was not the case, then Buddhism itself wouldn't exist, right?
Huh? Oh, well that's...
That is, for you, if you marry, you become the Temple Priest,
and you'll find yourself set for life, it's great for you, don't you think?
Show some respect! In any case,
at the time of Buddha, there were no companies, no stock, no cell phones.
There are all kinds of strange things in these modern times, right.
All worldly things are only temporary. Everything is always changing.
Despite her hesitation, you're trying to force
her on a path you desire, this person
for the convenience of others, is the one that will be boxed in.
Even if that is somewhere in the teachings of Buddha,
I am opposed to it with my whole soul.
What will you do? Kyoko san.
I...
can't marry you.
Huh?
It's just that....
because I love this man!
Huh?
Huh? That was just an act? Wasn't it obvious?
Oh, but if I hadn't, things there would have gotten out of hand.
What, is that right. What?
So you thought I was serious? Come on....
Well your hug was really passionate, Well, you know....
Don't get to full of yourself. You're only Mitamura san after all.
But it was kind of nice wasn't it?
Not likely. The point is,
even if I were to start dating you,
I wouldn't ever let it be noticed by anyone.
Oh look, of course you've thought about it a little.
Really, you can
think about it however you want.
Oh, but I am grateful.
Thank you very much. Grateful?
For encouraging me to keep going with what I'm doing now.
Well, it might have just been words out of your mouth,
but I was happy to hear it.
Just words out of my mouth.... I mean, what did I say?
Look.
Anyway, should we go get something to drink?
Sure.
I knew you would absolutely want too. No, not really.
Excuse me.
What are you doing? Yes, this is my new slogan.
All business will lead to enlightenment.
The Buddha doesn't require
that you entirely deny yourself money.
But the way of thinking that everything is material,
if you can deny yourself of that, and work for your money, or rather
be on a path that frees you from money, I'm thinking that'd be good.
Is that right. In other words, greed and appetites,
if I deny those, then life will be easy.
Huh? He's about to rebound.
It's human to have greed and appetites, that's what humans do.
Isn't it just humane to live?
Then surely after that comes enlightenment.
Or not?
The President asked him if he would come to New York.
It's been at least 5 years. Interesting.
You should at least say you'll go,
I'm turning in my resignation. We were
thinking you had some stuff. What is black,
is you personally! Well, I think I was wrong.
