Chikyuu ga Ugoita Hi (The Day the Earth Moved)

Ok!

If one side of this cube increases by 10 times, what does the volume increase by?

Think about it and make sure to help the people you sit next to.

Hmm... Natsume Soseki wrote "I am a Cat."

"Oku no Hoso Michi" was by Matsuo Bashou.

Higuchi Ichiyou was "Comparing Heights."

Umm... Could you help me here?

Translator Note: "test" refers to the entrance exams that students have to take to enter a school.

No! At this rate, I'll never be ready for the test!

Ok!

We will continue next week.

Stand up!

Bow!

Tsuyoshi...

Yes?

On your way home could you bring this to Kazu-kun?

Ok...

Show more energy than that, Mr. group leader!

He lives near you, after all.

Ouch! Grr...

Yukari! What are you laughing at?

Damn you!

RUN!

Wait up, Yuuta!

No way!

Damn you!

Tsuyoshi-kun! Wait!

Out of the way! I'm busy!

No! You have to write the graduation memorial speech! You won't get it in on time!

I don't have that kind of time! The test is in February! Why don't you write it?

Can't you just take a break from cram school and write it?

It is almost time for the test! I can't take a break!

You always think only of yourself, Tsuyoshi-kun.

Looks like Mr. group leader is getting it handed to him!

Bye!

Just get out of my way!

Miho-chan!

Tsuyoshi-kun!

Wait up!

Memories are important...

Damn Miho... Like I have the time to write a speech.

Today's schedule... January 13th: Return home at 4 and go to cram school starting at 5.

Computer Screen: January 13th: 4:00 return home; 5-9 cram school; 10-11 study.

Ok!

Let's go!

Math, Japanese, science...

Oh Yeah!

I have to go to Kazu-kun's house. What a pain.

I'm home!

Bro! About this picture...

Ah! I'm late! Late!

See ya!

Post box: Kato Kouji and Nagisa

Kazu-kun!

Kazu-kun, how are you feeling today? January 13th, From Sakai.

Looks like sensei came this morning.

Oh! Tsuyoshi-kun.

Ah! Kazu-kun's father.

Sorry for this.

How is Kazu-kun doing?

I want him to hurry up and get back to school, but...

Thanks for everything.

No problem, but now I have to go to cram school.

Sign 1: School for studying for entrance exams.

Natsume Soseki wrote "I am a Cat."

Sign: Aim for the Goal!

Natsume Soseki wrote "I am a Cat."

What about Matsuo Bashou?

"Oku no hoso michi."

Headband: Certain victory

What about Higuchi Ichiyou?

"Comparing Heights."

Mom! You look like a tanuki in this picture!

Translator's note: A tanuki is a Japanese animal. Usually referred to as a "raccoon dog."

What are you saying? I am beautiful!

Tomorrow, why don't we go to granny's house in Nagata?

Your brother has a mock test, so we can't.

There goes the long weekend.

Tsuyoshi, this time be number one!

I will!

If you go to a good college, you can enter a good company.

It may be hard on you now, but this is for your future.

Do your best!

Yeah...

I was saved!

It's really cold...

Tsuyoshi-kun.

You'll catch a cold!

Thanks...

It's cold...

Satoru...

It smells like gas... I wonder how your grandmother is.

Yeah...

For now let's just hurry to the school.

Tsuyoshi-kun! Tsuyoshi-kun!

Kazu-kun!

Please! Help!

My father... My father!

Kazu-kun.

It's not safe here. Go ahead without me.

Let's go, Kazu-kun!

Announcement: "The following areas of the school are dangerous..."

"There is a crack in the 2nd floor hallway and a wall in the 3rd floor has collapsed. It is dangerous, so don't approach those areas."

Oh no...

No water...

Damn!

I'm hungry!

I want water!

Bro!

Radio: "According to a report from the Osaka area observatory, Kobe suffered an earthquake of seismic intensity 6." Note: Seismic intensity 6 refers to the Japanese earthquake scale which is different from the Richter scale.

"The epicenter was at a depth of 20 kilometers, with a presumed magnitude of 7.2 on the Richter scale."

"This earthquake caused great destruction starting in Awajishima, near the epicenter."

"The destruction spread out to Kobe and Osaka, too."

"The number of deaths in Osaka and Hyougo reached a total of 439 people."

That can't be right! The earthquake was terrible!

There have to be more people who died!

Damn!

What's wrong?

It's broken. What will I do about the entrance examination?

This is a good place, Hana-san.

Be careful of your legs.

Thank you.

Hey, look! Sensei, he's over there!

Tsuyoshi!

Sensei!

Tsuyoshi!

Sensei!

I'm so glad you survived Tsuyoshi!

You survived too!

How is your family?

They are ok!

Yuuta, Kenji, and Sakiko are all doing fine, too.

Great!

If you meet anyone from class, let me know.

Ok!

Thanks!

Yukari! Are you doing ok?

Sensei!

Translator Note: Sensei means teacher or mentor in Japanese. Depending on the context used.

Everyone is doing fine, Sensei!

That's great...

Here you go.

What about yours, mom?

I'm ok. I'm too nervous to eat.

Umm... Don't over react or anything, but...

Your father was...

Injured.

Dad was hurt?

Sorry for surprising you.
