Yummy! Let's eat.
My Uvula
Bastard
Go, go, go!
Understand
I hit it! Pochi! Take!
Around that time I began to wonder: What makes a family happy?
We say 'family', But we are all individuals.
With our own dreams and problems.
It is said that nature and maintains the influence of how we grow up.
With my family, I know I will grow to be very cool.
- You made fun of my divorce - no
- You do it, right now. - not
- so - Don't push!
Grandfather is a department store shoe seller Work hard, plan for retirement.
Stop it, you two! Act your age!
Then, just like that, he was fired.
When he is really down, someone told him,
"They will build a big road. When it is finished, tourists will gather here!"
Sold on the idea, he bought this place.
And practically forcing all of us to run it as a guesthouse.
Hey!
He and Grandma Terue met and married at work.
Sometimes, for the sake of from your husband or children,
Ordinary housewives can do it the most unexpected thing
Ouch! No wonder you're divorced.
Not that I want to come here!
Shizue!
Idiot!
Before I was born, Mother returned with her people.
He fell and out of love is too easy Then the whole family moved here.
But Mum is still waiting for romance.
Uncle Masayuki works in a stock company.
It's a long story, but he was fired.
He has a short fuse, and sometimes it's crazy.
Fuck! God damn it!
Great-grandfather, easy life, lying and being selfish.
I hit Pochi, Pochi!
Amazing!
The peak season and not even a wild cat came.
We should never do it!
Masayuki!
What are you saying
Sky blue
Stars are abundant, air is so pure!
I can't do it. I will go.
Hey, wait.
After all efforts...
Don't say that
Yes, come all the way...
... to this beautiful place
We have worked hard, expecting guests.
Someone better appears.
You will take the first one Handsome man who comes.
How dare you, you short-ass ex-con!
- Stop it! - Goody-goody!
Stop it!
I already have it!
I made a cake, I cleaned it, and there were still no guests.
They will come.
I'm sure they will come if we save this
I didn't do anything until they arrived.
Masayuki! Shizue! It is enough!
They will come.
Very good here
A magnificent guesthouse. Even had time to swing.
Do you fix it?
Come on, sit on it.
You must come here to appreciate it.
The swing feels so good.
It's great. Guests will definitely come.
They will come!
Hello there
Welcome
Hiking?
Some tea on the terrace?
Help!
I'm afraid of darkness.
Why are you here
Forgive us! Excuse me!
We are on a journey of spiritual training.
Don't mind us.
Excuse me.
Spiritualists also do training trips?
I wonder.
I know they are not guests.
People really came this far.

Thank you God.
Let's eat.
What looks good?
This is not the season for stews, right?
Stews are good for leftovers. If you don't like it, don't eat it.
This will give you energy.
Full of kindness, from all vegetables
That's why the sumo wrestler eats it.
What happened to the deer's body?
His body?
Good...
One day...
... some men with guns, not grandfather...
Bang, bang!
... shoot and eat the body.
Am I issuing food?
Pickled plums?
Dirt!
Ah, spit.
OK, okay
You see it
The body is on the wall.
Buried on the wall.
Masayuki.
It's not dead yet.
Well, if that's what you think about, might not.
Now, eat some tofu, blow it.
A few days ago, he spent hours repairing a hole in the wall.
Daddy?
This place is everything to him.
Daddy likes to know, so leave him some.
Not you, Yurie.
So it's not dead yet. That's one way to see it.
At one of Karuizawa's guesthouses,
cute little animals help serve coffee and do other work.
This cute animal service is quite famous,
and now all rooms are booked,
from now until next year.
Everything starts when homestead owner
Mr. Sukeyoshi Honnoura
Well, he got the idea...
... cut labor costs.
Along with his family,
He places livestock to work in the guesthouse.
Look, a bug.
The pigs think: 'We can work or become sausages'.
So now they carry bags,
and serve coffee.
And that's why...
It doesn't come out.
They work like crazy.
Animals...
Leave it, don't change the channel.
Oh, let's see that.
Dem bone...
Not the actress is your age, mum?
Look at the situation.
Dem bone...
- Power outage? - mother
White Lovers' Guesthouse
What are you surprised at? You scared us to death.
Idiot!
Idiot?
Hey.
Someone outside.
A guest.
Want a room?
Thank you.
Will you have dinner?
Only beer
We will take him to your room
Breakfast from 07.30 to 09.00 in the dining room.
Checkout is 10:00 am.
Your room is upstairs
Hey, sir.
Some of my clothes... Don't hesitate to use them.
Enjoy your stay
And when I got there,
This is a dead end.
Darkness creeps up...
in thin shadow.
Even the slightest warmth,
My leaves and deserts,
and it hurts me.
Even my tears cry...
dries and empties my heart
Most don't smile when you leave.
Sayonara.
Your beer, sir Excuse me.
Thank you.
Squid guts?
- Tomorrow... - Yes?
If the world ends...
Huh?
If you die tomorrow...
... what will you do tonight?
Huh?
Masayuki, it's your turn to mop up.
OK?
I'm leaving.
See you later.
- Be careful. - I'll.
Hey, Shizue
That really suits you
Thank you.
As usual.
Well, he likes it.
Shouldn't we wake up guests now?
You're right.
Good morning.
Breakfast is ready.
Excuse me sir?
sir? Sir!
Masayuki, take the key!
Daddy!
Suicide?
Is that our key?
- God - Father!
Should we call the police, honey?
Calm down.
Where is the will
He has a knife.
Why doesn't he use it?
Maybe it's too depressed.
Why?
Why does he have to die?
Why at our guesthouse?
Where is the will
At least leave a will, you bastard.
A heritage. A heritage.
Come on. You must have a will.
Why do you have to die here?
Something is written here.
Peach?
A wallet. He has a wallet.
- Maybe there is something in it - the wallet
- Not here. - Or here
What do you see for me?
We said nothing.
But you look at me like that.
You usually collect a wallet.
That's been a long time.
Do you think I killed him for his wallet?
Nobody said that.
Maybe you have it too.
- Masayuki - What?
Bring some plastic sheets and ropes.
Just do it as I say.
We have to contact the police.
Don't! Wait.
Say the police released it Our first guest committed suicide.
No one will come and stay here!
If I lose this, I don't know what I will do!
This is the end for me.
Just seeing... Does that look like ordinary suicide?
Look at that.
Masayuki.
Bring a plastic sheet and rope.
Maybe it's better If we stop this, Masao?
I have nothing to do with that.
This must be completed. For everyone's sake
What's in the world
do you do it?
My time will come soon too,
But I pray I didn't see you much there.
I myself, I remember,
days when I fell in love
La la la, la vie en rose.
The color of love.
La la la, my naughty heart,
fast hit
La la la, only one more,
only once
La la la, though...
... it hurts.
Cast your magic spells on me.
The magic of your love
Give your love spell to me.
The magic of your love
Yurie.
Yes?
Will you be happy,
if you have a new father?
Bug?
Feelings of love.
Beautiful times that come to all.
When God whispers...
I love you!
At the busiest time, feeling happy.
No more pain. Miss hearing your voice
Desire.
All I need is your words.
The magic of love envelops me.
When you fall in love,
everything shines bright
When God sings...
I love you!
These long nights I sleep alone.
At dusk, I'm waiting for you, it's all very fun...
Heartbreaking!
I want to hold your smiling face.
I am very grateful I fell in love.
The magic of love envelops me.
Hello? Hello?
Are you a waiter?
I'm with the United States Navy.
To be more precise, British Navy.
Very? Your Japanese is very good
Yes, my father is Japanese.
Are you here on duty?
Yesterday... I took my post in Morioka.
I want to rest so I come here.
I like to meet someone like you.
What a sweet little girl.
Your mother is beautiful.
Your husband, I envy him.
I'm actually single.
Dad is having an affair with a high school girl.
Yes!
Alright, between you and me,
I'm also a British secret agent.
At the behest of Queen Elizabeth,
give me your cellphone number.
The cellphone doesn't work where I live.
Oh... I will... I'll be here
My name is Shizue Katakuri.
What's your name?
I almost forgot the most important thing.
I'm Richard Sagawa.
Richard Sagawa...
Who is this?
A few more days have passed without any migrants.
But no one said a word.
Let's go.
Ah, this looks delicious, look.
Listen, mmm, oh yeah.
What about noodles?
Masao, you have to eat something.
Delicious!
You must eat to maintain your strength, to be happy This is good. Very good.
How can it be so good? Maybe because I'm hungry.
Maybe dogs want some? Hey, this is very good.
Do you want fermented beans too? You are gourmet
Pochi! Pochi!
Hey, what do you know about this?
Do you know what that is?
What is that?
Good, eh

Continue.
Wow. Our first famous guest
Isn't he the "Athlete Singing Competition"?
This is your room.
We have found a very good place. No one will find us.
dear.
Still suspicious?
No?
me?
How many times has he cheated us?
He was the last person to see that guy, When he took the beer.
The man's wallet is gone If the police come and start investigating,
the past will come out, it will make things difficult
But he is like an honest and gentle soul.
You said you refused, But when he returned from prison,
You say, 'Let's all work together for the guesthouse'.
It's only natural!
When her only child goes down,
what did you not want to give out?
Look, you two are very similar.
She's too good, that's why she's popular Just like you.
Hello, White...
Hello?
Hello this is...
Yes? Yes?
I can hardly hear you.
Ah, alright... Shizue?
Wait a minute.
Go there.
- Shizue - Oh, Richard!
Yes, it's me, Richard.
I just want to hear your voice.
I am currently flying over Iraq.
- Johnnie! - Who is Johnnie?
This call is reflected through Yokota Air Base in Japan.
- Yokota? - Looking for!
Be careful! I will wait.
Shizue, I love you!
Oh me too!
Richard?
See it like this,
he looks even bigger.
He is inflating.
Where is the girl?
He disappeared.
Maybe he ran away.
P-police.
What?
We have to contact the police.
No need
What are you doing?
Masayuki! Sheet and rope!
We have to call the police... This won't work
We will never be able to take it through the hall.
Maybe dropping him from here?
Chop him?
What do you think?
Do you realize what you will do?
Don't It can expose the other one.
- What? - This is not over!
Just do it as I say.
Why do we only get guests like this!
What is the deal with this corpse?
Listen!
We have to save the guesthouse.
You're acting weird, what...
Guesthouse, bullshit!
This place has no future.
Masayuki! Stop it.
I started this so we can all work together.
I won't let this destroy it.
You always say 'for everyone's sake'.
But your selfishness _ drags us all up here
Don't you feel responsible?
I didn't drag you here.
You don't know how I feel!
If you want to go, go.
Masao!
Stop!
Will not be back!
Bullshit, idiot!
Masayuki! I am sorry!
Bastard I've thought about it!
We have to do this for everyone's sake!
If you will do it, do it fast!
Do you do it
This one is more rigid than it seems. And it's harder too.
Appears out!
This... pops out!
What do you mean?
What are you talking about?
See?
What is happening?
Why did this happen?
Why are you all out here to die?
What's wrong with you?
Are there people at home?
This is Officer Miyake.
Hello?

Luckily he grew up fine.

A difficult birth, huh?
He shows up!
A guest?
- Yes! - Not!
What is that sound?
We are just about to settle.
Who should do what...
Something fell.
How many guests do you have?
Oh, maybe I shouldn't ask.
But some people like this quiet place
Yes, can't complain.
It's nice to see families gather together.
Oh, this too...
Desired poster
I'll leave it here.
Thank you.
Pochi? Is that your dog?
Yes.
Goodbye
Thank you, goodbye.
Continue!
This will do
I have never done anything like this.
Hey, he's great! WELL.

What?
Not that he easily breaks.
Bad thing.
Hello?
Are you from the guesthouse?
Yes.
Do you have a cake?
Can we eat something?
Yes!
Average people.
Ordinary people!
True normal
Mother, mother... where is the sugar?
In the closet.
OK, hold this
Fast! Fast!
You have something on your face!
It's okay, I will eat it.
This is it.
Everything is home-made.
This is the sugar.
Enjoy!
Under one roof and sky,
laugh and sleep...
My dream is to live together.
If you want to go, just go.
When you're lonely, just go back.
Let's stay here.
Let's start here.
In this new place.
There is a big new way to come.
Will it bring happiness?
Happiness is made by everyone.
That's right. All family.
Let's stay here. Start here together.
On the road to happiness and health.
Let's stay here. Start here together.
On the road to happiness and health.
Let's stay here. Start together here.
On the road to happiness and health.
Let's stay here. Start together here.
On the road to happiness and health.
What?
Is that so?
Thank you.
Near the lake.
We look forward to that.
We have prayed for a big way.
We jump happily.
Yes, thank you.
Don't do it
What is that?
Construction of the road.
The date has not yet been decided,
but they dig all over the lake area.
I see...
We will move them.
Dem bone...
Richard.
Shizue, I've been thinking about you every day.
What are you doing?
I'm talking on the telephone.
Someone is investigating.
WELCOME. I am very happy that you are safe.
I miss you.
Are you thirsty? Drink?
Or something to eat?
I want to eat you
The smell of disinfectants
White Lovers' Guesthouse
2,212 Yen!
How lucky!
After shampooing, I cut my hair.
Maybe I'm messed up.
We should mark the location.
When did you make it?
Just now.
You plan to put it here
If not, we will forget where they are.
I think we need this.
Everyone who comes will see it.
Maybe not, then.
But again, this is a work of art.
Uh, about here...
OK?
Here isn't it?
There?
Where is the path?
Join us.
Everyone sings together.
I got this far
because of your smiling face.
No,
I only follow you, ace.
Together,
How far have we come?
Before I found out, I felt happy.
That sounds very sharp.
All difficulties...
It's been long forgotten.
Dreams and joy...
and many more.
But your heart is soft and sincere...
is my consolation
Our hearts are soft...
... is our comfort.
There are no promotions, no money,
All I have is my health.
Yes,
You have energy and strength.
You always...
give me a helping hand.
Sometimes it's a bull kick.
I will be hopeless without it.
I have no regrets.
Dreams and joy...
and many more.
But your heart is soft and sincere...
is my consolation
Our hearts are soft...
is our comfort Our hearts are soft...
is our comfort We have to dig them.
We have to bury it again.
Your job is very demanding.
Good...
There is something I have to say to you.
My mother is actually...
... Queen Elizabeth's youngest sister.
But they are half brothers, is not officially accepted.
This is very tiring, noble family.
Royal family
But when I was little,
I remember being hugged by Aunt Elizabeth
Diana! If only I had been there!
He often calls me for advice.
I said to Charles:
'You must respect your wife'.
The accident happened When I was on duty.
Very sad.
I can't forgive the paparazzi.
Mother came to Japan to study,
and fall in love with my father.
Father is a student at Tokyo Imperial University.
That's amazing.
Not all of them.
Father wants to be a painter,
But as a doctor's child, he must go and study.
So that's where you get your artistic talents I want to paint too,
but Aunt Elizabeth objected.
Oh dear.
Shizue
I want to paint you.
Shizue, you are very beautiful.
Dad used to say it Japanese women are amazing.
Now that I've met you, I really think so.
There are no Paris girls or Russian ballerinas
is a match for Japanese women.
I have never met someone like you, Shizue.
I want to go to Paris
and stay there with you, Painting.
It's like a dream.
I have to go to England to explain to Aunt Elizabeth.
But my funds are very strict limited to official duties.
If I go back to England...
This is very embarrassing.
If you only loan me a plane ticket, I can get rich again!
But what did I say?
Don't worry So that's the plan.
I will be careful Isn't the star beautiful?
Ah!
Oh dear, your nose!
My nose isn't bleeding because I'm horny Blood is heavy to improve my critical abilities.
And as I have a lot of more blood than Japanese people,
This jumped out of control.
Beyond all reasons
Uncontrolled!
Bastard
Richard!
Our ashtray
You cheap bastard!
Bastard!
Want to fight? Come on!
Hold.
Hit the old man, right?
Hold
You bastard.
You fart
Richard!
What? Keep away from it.
I know, it hurts, I know.
Let's forget it Dead, old grandfather
Richard!
What?
Here, take it.
Dead!
My eyes are spinning...
Grandpa!
Wow, we are so tall.
Are you okay, Grandpa?
Hey...
Stop it.
Searching!
Bastard
Richard!
Shizue
This will be our little secret.
GOOD?
Grandpa.
All men are bastards.
Mother, why are you married to father?
Good...
The first time your father lived with me, the next morning...
He removed all my shoes from the closet and polished them in her underwear.
At that time I decided,
I want to cook for him forever.
I'm jealous.
Dad might eat poison if you cook it He will be easily killed.
Very!
Sachiko, forgive me, forgive me
Michiko, Yoshie, I never meant to make you unhappy.
That's all my fault.
Kimiyo, Yuka, Kazue, forgive me Sachiko, Yuko,
Miyuki, sorry
Shi... Shi...
Shimizu Yoko!
Is he dead?
What's wrong now?
Actor?
He is a member of the British royal family,
and a pilot with the US Air Force.
Not possible.
Bastard Look at what he holds!
Network of dial-a-date clubs at the station!
You think the real pilot will bring this
What is this?
Shochiku Film Rental Costume Studio...
Is he not a stranger?
Not possible.
Dear...
There is nothing else.
Hey, look, hey.
A wallet.
What?
Look, I said it wasn't me.
Bastard
He also stole our ashtray.
But why does he have to die here?
And after that fall Gutter is so good too, jerk!
Yes, Officer Miyake.
Yes.
What!
Bodies
A typhoon approaches, moves slowly, getting intensity.
After midnight, the whole area...
- this is you - Thank you.
The picture is not funny.
This is air.
A guest?
Maybe.
What will happen now?
Do you have an available room?
Do you want two rooms?
Only one, the cheapest.
Thank you.
Welcome, like this.
Please, like you.
Don't you have a bad feeling? about this?
Excuse me.
Do you have a strong cable I can borrow?
Rope?
I need a few, if you have them.
I will find some and bring it up.
Please.
Maybe we have to prepare for the worst
Yes.
This wet land...
... really makes you sick again.
Now, Grandpa?
What?
Oh, that will happen, it's okay.
What?
I can hear something.
Flutes
the cable
Eh...
What is the hole for?
This is for trash.
Hard work.
Thank you for everything.
What is this?
What did you bury for him?
See the positive side.
GOOD!
- Always positive. - WELL!
Oh, you can turn away.
Very?
You can even stop.
Come on, go on!
But always moving again.
Even if no one is waiting for you.
- looks good - Let's go.
Let's go slowly.
With your chin up high.
Do we lose?
looking into the past?
Don't try too hard to forget.
In the end, it's just a memory.
Let's go together.
Take me with you!
Let's hold hands.
Man is weak...
and quiet things.
So until finally we close our eyes,
let's live to laugh and dance.
where am I? Dirt!
What's the matter!
What is this! Cursing.
Good morning!
Morning.
Damn... Damn...
What?
What is that?
Daddy.
- impossible - they know?
What should I do? What?
Seeing! Look at this! Dirt!
Cursing.
Terue, look inside.
Please.
GOOD.
Masao.
I will leave.
Don't be stupid.
I did it.
I'm guilty... everyone.
Too extraordinary
No one will believe it.
Don't think about it.
Masao, you did your best
Daddy.
I will leave.
As long as you're here, Katakuri's family will be fine Don't worry I gave my life once during the war.
Grandpa, wait,
I'm leaving!
Masayuki, good for you Spoken like a real Japanese person.
But it's time like this, when luck is up,
The old bench is like I have to go.
No, I should.
I suggest that we bury them.
In fact, I dragged everyone here.
I'm wrong and I'm sorry.
That's not true.
That's right.
No, no.
Yes it is.
What is happiness?
Over the years, I've learned only one thing.
No one dies in anyone's sad way
People have to laugh at the funeral: 'He did well to live all this time'!
How you die depends on how you live.
Grandpa.
Don't worry Type of God for fools.
Dirt! They follow me! Dirt! They all follow me!
This is detective with regional police

Are you okay?
Endure
Thank you God.
Pochi.
Wait.
Look here
Beautiful.
So let's go! Let's go!
The sun is watching while smiling.
Let's sing!
Like birds, look for the sky.
Let's laugh!
Leave your sadness in the wind.
Tomorrow will be fine, we are fine.
Let's laugh together, that's happiness!
Let's laugh.
Leave your sadness in the wind.
Tomorrow will be fine, we are fine.
Let's laugh together, that's happiness.
The following year,
Nihei's great-grandfather died.
Humans are only one of nature's creatures
and one day humans might...
... lost the game of natural selection.
But until then,
people continue to live, seriously, touch.
That's...
... life.
Yes!
