Iroduku: The World in Colors (2018–…): Season 1, Episode 5 - A Modest Recipe - full transcript

ART ROOM

So, the Magic Photography Arts Club
has been approved!

Congratulations.

The official name is the
"Magic Photography Arts Club"?

It's long! Like Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte long.

Bangkok's official name is even longer.

What? Seriously?

-I'm so happy we'll finally have club activities together.
-It's true! Krung Thep...

-Fun with friends is what being young is about.
-Mahanakhon Amon Rattanakosin Mahinthara Ayuthaya.

So, my proposal.

Let's have a party to celebrate the club's formation!



-Oh, yes! Count me in, count me in!
-Hold on now. What about the budget?

We can just bring our own food.

-We can have it at my place.
-That sounds fun.

If we can do it cost free, I'm all for it!

I'll group message you once I know
when my home is free

and have made a schedule.

Sounds good. I can hardly wait.

Well, let's begin club activities.

We'll be teaching our newbie how to use the dark room
and chemicals today.

Then the Magic Club will commence
with its fortune telling venture.

What's that?

The night when I lost who I used to be

The night when I felt no one loved me

If I could only believe



In a tomorrow that's crystal clear

I strained my eyes in the brightness

I don't even know

The color of your heart

We run to be sure we don't miss

The new season and the signs of someone

Even if it's far, even if it's far
Like a prayer

Searching for the light

The rainbow will come after the rain

Hey, what will you ask?

It's a secret!

Your lucky item is an hourglass.

If you write your crush's name with a pink pen,
you'll improve your romantic luck.

Really?

It's only a fortune, but there's a chance now.

It'll go well if you just have more confidence!

Thank you so much!

Next person, come on in!

Pardon us.

We came to see what this is like.

The line out there is huge. It's kind of incredible.

Well, you know...

Since we're here, we thought
we'd hear our romantic fortunes.

Right, Asagi?

I don't really...

In that case...

Illuminate, oh, light. Speak, my crystal ball.

There's a definite mutual love between you and a rabbit.

What?

You're hiding something.

Is Asagi's love life that bad?

Well...

Can I be honest?

Go ahead.

As it stands, your romantic luck is the worst.

A rival will appear,
and his feelings will drift somewhere far away.

That's what I see.

Well, don't pay it too much mind.

Next it's my turn, right?

Tell me if I'll get a boyfriend.

There's no way.

Come on, you can tell me my fortune.

Look, look. I'm over here.

KAZANO PHOTO STUDIO

Okay, one more.

Thank you very much!

Sho, good work.

Don't mention it.

Being able to work here has taught me so much.

Dad! I'm borrowing your laptop.

Oh, all right.

That's a nice photo.

Do you think so?

It's as rabbit-themed as ever.

Well, I do like them.

You're so good at taking photos,
you should show it to people.

It's embarrassing.

You could put them up in the shop's gallery
or make them into postcards.

You won't know until you try.

Come on, please, Hitomi!

Watch the shop?

Yeah, sorry. There's somewhere I just have to go.

But I...

I've never been on shop duty.

Hitomi, should I cancel my outing after all?

No, you don't have to. If it's just for a while--

Thanks, Hitomi!

Thank you. We'll be back by evening.

We're off!

I'm worried.

She had those abandoned puppy eyes.

She'll be fine.

Granny is there to help if she needs it.

You're right.

The usual, please.

The usual?

Yes. The red star-sand.

Red...

The one for having nostalgic dreams.

Batch 17 of the nostalgic dream star-sand is done!

Thank you for coming.

Are you okay?

Yes, somehow.

When you're unsure,
you can always check the catalog.

I will.

Where did Gran-- Kohaku go?

She's on a search to find an old magic text.

There's a shop that lends out such texts.

Since you showed up,

it seems Kohaku is studying magic
more intensely than ever.

"Someday my magic will be needed."

She said that's her hunch.

Kohaku did?

I've got to do my best watching the shop too.

Wow, there are so many kinds of star-sand.

There are other star-sands
with different uses and purposes

that we don't have here, but we can order them.

It's almost like a pharmacy.

Kohaku told me that star-sand is like a supplement
to be used daily.

Really? Could you recommend a congratulatory gift
for an acquaintance who's opened a solo exhibition?

If that's the case...

How about a star-sand that envelops you
in the scent of the forest?

Sounds good. I'll take that.

I'll get it wrapped up.

How about that new picture?

I haven't been able to draw what's in my head recently.

If only there were a star-sand to help me draw.

Just a moment!

This one? No, maybe this...

But, even this one...

Sorry. It's fine, I was just musing.

Sorry.

I'll do the research on it later.

So, that's what happened.

Is there something for that? Some kind of magic?

It's rare for you to embrace magic so positively.

Well, being able to see a picture in color

is a really important matter for me.

Is that all?

And I heard that you've been putting
a lot of effort into studying magic.

I see.

Then try making some star-sand on your own.

Hitomi, is this your first time adding magic to star-sand?

With a little practice,
I'm sure you'll at least grasp the basics.

-I couldn't possibly--
-No objections allowed!

This is an important matter for you, right?

I'll give it a try.

-I'm impressed! You really are my granddaughter!
-Hey--

-That's the way, accept any challenge!
-What?

It's okay if you fail.

Good girl, good girl. Yes, yes, yes!

Accept any challenge.

That was some line!

I didn't think it'd go all the way to the stairs!

What are you doing, Hitomi?

I don't know how to...

Never used one? Don't worry. I'll show you how.

Thank you so much.

It was her first time buying one.

Really? Good for her.

She's quite the character, that girl.

New members start by learning all the basics.

If you want to take monochromatic pictures,
using film can also be fun.

That's it for today.

Thank you very much.

Would it be okay if I used this room a little longer?

What for?

I want to practice my magic.

I wanted to try it in a dark room.

That's awesome! Can I watch?

I guess I can show you a bit...

In the starry night, shine your light.

Like the stars.

It was supposed to end up looking like a planetarium.

Looks like you still need practice.

Yeah.

Though, I don't remember you
being so interested in magic.

If my magic were able to make someone happy,

I thought I should give it a try.

Oh, yeah? I know the feeling.

If someone is happy looking at my photos,

I'm motivated.

Good luck with your practice.

Thank you.

In the starry night, shine your light. Like the stars.

I followed the recipe. What's the problem?

I give up.

In the starry night, shine your light. Like the stars.

WE'RE HAVING A PEP RALLY!

You won't know until you try it.

I can't...

do it.

A Modest Recipe

Hello!

Oh, welcome.

I thought I'd help with preparations,
so I came early.

-Am I the first one here?
-Yeah.

Hey, Asagi.

What color does this look like to you?

Such a pretty blue! Is it star-sand?

It's my first time making my own.

That's amazing!

I've actually got something that I made, too!

It's delicious!

That's a relief.

Wow, you're pretty good.

I've always liked them.

I've always been an introvert.

I liked to play house, look at pictures,
and be alone at home.

Sho was my only friend.

Come on. Let's go, Asagi.

Sho always pulled me along as a childhood friend.

He's always been so good at taking care of others.

Sho, I mean.

Now that you mention it,
he did show me how to buy an O'Free.

You too?

We're kind of similar, you and I.

Pardon the intrusion!

Oh, what's this?

Something smells great!

I baked cookies, it's fresh!

Should we lay out the food we brought too?

It's brown.

Now let's...

Toast!

I had Kohaku tell me my fortune.

My romantic luck.

Whoa, really?

Want to know?

-Nah, not really.
-Well, I'm not telling!

So, it was popular, then,
the Magic Club's fortune telling?

There was quite the queue.

Could you grab that?

-Oh, here. Looks good.
-Thanks.

You finished it.

Yeah. Last night.

Congratulations! You should give it to him right away.

Now?

Yeah, why not?

But everyone's here...

What's wrong with them being here?

Oh, is that so?

Oh, no! We don't have enough juice!

Hitomi, go buy some with Yuito.

Thank you, guys!

Are we already out of juice?

It would seem so.

Where is the closest store?

Care if we take a little detour?

Perfect timing.

How does it look to you?

Even without colors, I can tell it's beautiful.

Oh, here.

I couldn't find you a good one last time.

So, I made one instead.

I tried making star-sand with magic to produce stars,
like I promised before.

Try it for a change of pace.

You made it for me?

Thank you.

I'm looking forward to your next drawing.

So, you said before that you can only see colors
in my drawings.

Right.

Is that something necessary for you?

Yes.

I wonder why.

I have spent so many years not knowing color.

The color of the sky, the color of flowers,
the setting sun and rainbows.

Which is why I had given up on lots of things.

But when I first saw your drawing,

the colors erupted before my eyes.

It's like it was telling me to remember colors.

I don't know why,

but for some reason, your drawings
are very special things to me.

I see.

I'll try using the star-sand tonight.

I wonder if they'll even use cash in the future.

Why?

Hitomi was panicking the other day,
at the vending machine.

-The O'Free?
-Right, right.

It must be tough.

I'm sure a sudden change of 60 years is stressful.

That's right.

Seeing Hitomi makes me want to try just a little harder.

At what?

Like at the culture festival, and my future and stuff.

You're floating on clouds.

I'll be relentless with club activities, too.

So passionate! Cut it out!

Asagi, you'll be a senpai now too.

Stay aware.

Be a little more proactive--

Like Hitomi?

Yeah. Well, something like that.

I got it, pres.

What is it, Asagi?

Blockhead.

Sho, that's why you went
and made the tabletop all brown.

What's she talking about?

Couldn't say.

Was my fortune on the money?

I should've known it would be.

Well, of course.

I'm a great mage in the future!

But, fortunes are only hints.

You're always the one who decides your future.

Hitomi said it was her first time making star-sand.

She's doing her best too.

Hitomi isn't very good at magic,

so making star-sand was a big task for her.

How many times do you think she screwed up?

I reached out to Hitomi
because I thought I'd look good doing it.

But, I was wrong.

I want to change too.

You'll be fine!

I know that much without having to tell your fortune.

Oh, crap!

We're all out of star-sand ingredients!

Mom's going to kill--

Who's going to kill you?

Hold on, what is this?

Kohaku! I told you to use the old ingredients for practice!

But it's easier to succeed with magic
using higher-quality materials--

So you're saying you're the one cutting corners
trying to help her succeed!

Yes.

This stuff doesn't grow on trees.

Gathering it up is really hard!

-You're cleaning this up so it's all ready to be used again.
-What?

Did something happen?

Something about some high-grade materials.

I guess mages argue about the same stuff
as everyone else.

My older sister gets really mad
when I use her expensive face lotion, too.

-Considering that...
-What?

You have great skin!

No patronizing!

Sho...

I might make some rabbit postcards.

That's a nice idea.

Could you help me out, Sho?

Sure, of course!

Now that I think of it, you used to talk to me casually
like you are now, didn't you?

Everyone teased me about it
when we started middle school.

They did?

They would ask if we were dating and stuff like that.

So some rumors popped up back then.

Sorry, Asagi.

That must have bothered you.

It's fine. I got used to formal speech.

Right now, this is fine...

Thanks for having us.

See you later!

My back hurts!

My hands are all black...

When you use magic,

you have to consider the costs and implications, got it?

Yes.

Sorry.

-Anyway, Hitomi. Did you give him the star-sand?
-Yeah.

Good for you!

Though, its only effect is to give a change of pace.

I really hope it helps him.

"Turn your room lights off
and use it before going to sleep."

The special view

That awaits on top of the hill

You cut it out with your fingers

Magic grazes my ear

And the world changes color

Leaving me behind

The future scatters downward

It scatters downward and spreads under my feet

Even if monotony builds up and I feel depressed

If I can embrace

The eternal tomorrow

I'll get a little closer to you

Aoi-senpai's drawing?

I can't draw lately.

Is that color?

-Do I have to tell you everything?
-It went in?

-Are you okay?
-Something scary happened.

-Is mage...
-Say no more!

-Never mind!
-How can I go back?
