Kiseki (I Wish) (奇跡)

Thanks for breakfast!

KAGOSHIMA

Light rain forecast in the mountain areas this afternoon

The entire Kagoshima area

will become cloudy in the afternoon

The southern island chains will remain sunny all day

The wind forecast over Sakurajima...

This is... the moon

This is... the wind

What's this?

Um...

A snake?

What do you mean, a snake?

Hey Koichi, what's this?

A ghost?

Mom, I need the school fee for October

You're right, I forgot!

This is a ghost

Dry your hair before you come home

Don't you get it, that's the best part

Don't you get it, summer's over You could catch a cold

Off you go!

What's this?

Sorry!

You're late, Koichi

Sorry I was cleaning my room

Cleaning?

Yeah, the volcanic ash

Doesn't it bug you?

Not anymore

This ash is used in that famous baseball stadium

They do?

They do

You know everything

I don't get it

What?

Why's everyone so calm,

when the volcano's erupting

You should've moved to Fukuoka with your little brother

I WISH

Why'd they build this school at the top of a hill? I don't get it

Morning!

Good morning!

Why'd they build this school at the top of a hill?

Good morning

I wish she was our home room teacher

I know

Mitsumaru

What did you write?

I wrote "Exile"

Is "Exile" a profession?

I'm asking you again

Is "Exile" a profession?

It's the name of a pop group

Yes

Sit down

I asked you what kind of job you want in the future

I can understand "professional baseball player"

But "Ichiro" isn't a profession

All right

Before next class, go find out about your fathers' jobs

You'll need to submit your papers

Got that?

Teacher

What?

Osako doesn't have a father

I see

You don't have a father, Osako?

I do, but we're living apart for now

Anyone else without a dad, raise your hand

He's violating our privacy

If you don't have a father, write about your mother

I'm going to tell my mother and have our teacher fired

Go for it

Feel better

I asked about your profession

Are insects a profession?

What did you write?

Rhinoceros beetle

No wonder he's mad

Take it easy, Tasuku

He really pisses me off

Osako!

So you moved back in with your mother's folks

because of your family situation?

Yes

Actually, I didn't have a father either

Hang in there

Come talk to me anytime I'll support you

Don't you want to move back to Tokyo, Tasuku?

Not really

It's not like living in Tokyo was that much fun

Besides, we've already moved three times

I'm used to it

Ryunosuke, did you hear

about the Tower of the Sun?

KAGOSHIMA

FUKUOKA

The four of us went to the Tower of the Sun park a lot

Yeah, but Dad and Mom were always fighting

But Osaka was a whole lot better than this dump

Are the ashes still falling?

Yeah, they make a really loud noise when they fall

I don't get it

I don't get it, either

Swimming Club

My shoe!

Octopus Puffs

Step right up!

I want Ponzu scallions with fish flakes and sauce

How many?

Ten each

Aren't mine better than the ones in Osaka?

Not necessarily

700 Yen

Give me a discount

If you don't, I'll have the shop re-evaluated!

That's scary

Bye bye

See you tomorrow!

I'm home!

In two months,

the Bullet Train will start running throughout Kyushu

Once operational,

the Kyushu Bullet Train will connect

Kagoshima and Hakata at top speeds oft 260 km per hour,

drawing wide regional interest

Let me see

Oh, it says, " A lively place for workers in their 20s "

What is that, age harassment?

Why can't they just write, "Not hiring workers in their 30s"

I'm too old to work a cash register

What if my old classmates shop there...

If only your father made a little more money,

we could support you two,

but he's just about retired

Thanks for dinner

He left his cabbage again

It's so delicious Maybe he doesn't like the crunch

Ryu doesn't like cabbage either

I hope he's eating properly

I told you,

I'm happy to take in both of them

He made his own decision

It's been six months now

I'm sure he's missing his mother about now

I'm sure he is, I know he is

He is, he is

That night, I had a dream

In the car... We got on the bus

and then Koichi took off his helmet

and all this steam came out

Steam really came out I was surprised

Amazing

Sounds like a manga

Wait!

Wait, wait!

I wonder if the four of us will ever live together again

FUKUOKA

Dad! Time to go to the work!

Did you come up with a new song?

Something like this...

Try going back to sleep

Yeah

I'm off!

- Good morning! - Morning!

Morning!

Morning!

My school bag's so heavy

It's light

I'm borrowing your hat, keep this

No fair

Dragonfly!

You idiot

Damn, I can't catch it

Almost! I just had it

Its wings flapped and it got away

Ryu, your bag!

He ignored me

Not listening

Today's lunch is fried bread

You like it?

It's awful

It's not awful

Morning!

Morning!

I saw you on TV last night

Thanks

What's Becky like?

She's really pretty and sweet

Actually, have you ever met Ono?

No

If you do, get his autograph

I like Nino

You're out of luck

Why?

There aren't going to be two actresses in one class

Yeah, but I'm not all that serious about acting

You really want to, right?

But the two guys in "Downtown" were in
