AISubs v3.5
Wow!
Oh, my God!
Idols you can go and meet will go and meet you in your city!
Oh, my God!
Members of AKB will be Tourist Ambassador for a day and show you the charm of your city all over Japan!
AKB Tourist Ambassador!
Here we go! I'm Yui Yokoyama, Team A Captain of AKB Tourist Ambassador.
Nice to meet you. I'm Mari.
As Tourist Ambassador for a day and show you the charm of your city all over Japan,
we have been selected by Team A Captain Yokoyama.
They are Yukari Saki and Juri Takahashi.
How do you like them?
They are in their teens, but I'm not sure about Yukarin.
She is a bit quiet, so I'm not sure if she can show you her city as Tourist Ambassador for a day and show you its charm.
I'm worried about it, but Juri and Yukarin are in their 40s and 20s.
I'm worried that Juri will show you her city as Tourist Ambassador for a day and show you its charm.
I'm looking forward to their balance.
The city they will show you is...
Kagawa Prefecture, Marugame City!
Speaking of Kagawa Prefecture, I'm on a national tour of AKB now.
I've been there as a member of Team A.
I've visited Kagawa Prefecture at NMB48, which I was a member of.
But I've never been to Marugame City.
I'm curious about the city and its charm.
I hope they will promote it well.
Let's start "AKB Tourist Ambassador"!
It takes two and a half hours from Tokyo by plane and car.
Marugame City has a population of about 110,000 people.
What kind of charm is packed in Marugame City?
We've come to Marugame City!
I'm Juri Takahashi of AKB48 Team A.
I'm Yukarin Kotosu of Team A and I'm 18 years old.
Nice to meet you.
You're the one-day tour guide.
Yes.
Have you ever done that?
No, we haven't.
It's our first time.
No, we haven't.
What does "taishi" mean?
What is it?
Have you ever been to Marugame City?
No, we haven't.
We think of udon noodles in Kagawa Prefecture.
What does "marugame" mean?
"Kame" (turtle)
I feel like there is a "kame" (turtle)
It's like...
It's like "jimri".
Look at it.
It's like...
What was it?
Don't you know it?
What was it?
It's like "totoro".
Today's one-day tour guide is Yukarin and Yukari Sasaki of Team A from Saitama Prefecture.
They also belong to Team A.
They are 15 years old from Ibaraki Prefecture.
They are Juri and Juri Takahashi.
This time, too, if they are good friends, they should be able to promote it well, the AKB group chose.
But they didn't know the meaning of "tourist ambassador".
I'm a little worried about the future. Will it be okay?
It's morning, but are you hungry?
I'm hungry.
Have you eaten breakfast?
I haven't eaten.
Then do you want to go eat?
Do you have it?
You have it.
Yay!
I'm hungry.
What do you want to eat?
What do you eat?
Speaking of Kagawa Prefecture...
Udon!
Then let's go eat udon.
What?
In the morning.
No way, yay!
Then let's go.
Is it over there?
Let's go.
First of all, the basic of Kagawa Prefecture.
Sanuki udon for breakfast.
However, you don't just eat it.
You make the noodles first.
What?
We will challenge you to make udon noodles.
Since we have a day off, let's make udon noodles first and promote it.
The owner of this road, who is 16 years old, will teach us how to do it.
Do people who eat whole meals eat udon noodles in the morning?
Yes, they do.
That's amazing.
In the morning?
They eat two bowls of udon noodles in a day.
Isn't it amazing?
Isn't it like one bowl of udon noodles in a week?
No, it isn't.
That's amazing.
Don't you get bored of it?
I don't get bored of it.
You don't get bored of it?
Then, it's like rice.
That's about it.
That's amazing.
I see.
For people who eat whole meals, udon noodles are like soul food.
How do you make it?
That's amazing. Look at it.
It's like a turtle.
First of all, they knead wheat flour and salt water and stretch the dough.
That's amazing.
Push it a little more.
That's amazing. It's like a cushion.
It's elastic.
That's amazing.
It's like a low-resistance pillow.
That's right.
You can step on it now.
What's this?
You can eat it, right?
But you can't step on it to make your waist stand out.
My waist?
That's right.
As usual.
That's amazing.
Are you okay?
I'm totally fine.
No, no, no.
It's like you'll get fat if you bend down.
I don't like it.
Oh, my God!
It's like...
I can't get my feet out of it.
It's a little over-the-top, but you can do it.
You can do it.
That's amazing.
Oh, my God!
It's so funny.
Oh, my God!
It's so funny.
Oh, my God!
It's crazy, isn't it?
Oh, my God!
It's like...
I'm sorry.
It's like...
Do you cook together?
No, we don't.
Oh, but...
If it's a pancake...
Oh, my God!
Oh, it's sticking out of it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
If you step on it a little more...
Is it okay for it to stretch like this?
It's like...
The floor is udon, so I'm running on udon.
I'm tired.
It's like... I don't know.
In this state, use a cotton swab and make it even thinner.
How is it?
The dough looks good.
It's kind of nice.
I mean, it's kind of...
No, the dough is cold.
Oh, it's cold?
It feels good.
It's difficult.
It's difficult, isn't it?
When you stretch out the dough, use a dedicated machine to cut it evenly, but...
Is it even now?
No, it's not! It's too thin!
All you have to do is boil it in boiling water for about ten minutes and it's done!
Let's eat it with your husband's recommended way of eating it!
Yukari, you should try it, too.
Okay.
Thank you for waiting.
Here it is.
This is Kama-age.
It's surprisingly simple.
This Kama-age is the best way of eating udon.
You dip it in the sauce and eat it.
You dip it in the sauce and eat it?
That's right.
I've never heard of it before.
Here you go.
Thank you for waiting.
This is Kama-age.
It's completely different!
This is cold udon.
What is it? It's so cute!
It's a quail egg.
Is it a quail egg?
You put this in and...
You put it in and eat it as you like.
It's ice, isn't it?
That's a lot of ice!
It's heavy!
It's beautiful!
And it's transparent!
It's transparent!
It's heavy!
It's long!
Thank you for it.
It's hot!
It's chewy! It's really chewy!
It's crazy! It's really chewy!
It looked like a low-impact pillow earlier, but it's really chewy!
What did you do with the low-impact pillow?
With the low-impact pillow...
I wonder what it is!
A trampoline?
It's really elastic!
It's long!
Please wait a moment.
It's crazy!
It's really chewy!
Is it more elastic than this one?
The more water you soak it in, the more elastic it becomes.
That's right.
It's really elastic.
How much is it?
The fried chicken is 250 yen.
It's cheap!
Isn't it really cheap?
How about this one?
This one is 300 yen.
Isn't it crazy?
It's cheap!
It's cheap and delicious!
This is why it's called "udon prefecture"!
It's convincing to eat it every day!
You can eat it in the morning, too.
After eating udon for dinner,
they are heading to Mr. Marugame who gave them this offer!
Excuse me!
Good morning!
I'm a one-day tourist ambassador.
I'm Yuri Takahashi of "AKB48".
I'm Yukari Sasaki. Nice to meet you!
I'm Mr. Marugame's housekeeper.
Thank you very much!
I'm sorry, but we don't have anything.
All right!
Thank you very much for coming today!
Thank you!
Besides udon, Mr. Marugame has many other good points.
I ate udon earlier.
Did you eat it?
It was very delicious!
I was really surprised!
It was delicious!
Did you make udon yourself?
Yes, I made it!
I want to eat it!
I'm sorry!
In addition to that,
Mr. Marugame has many other good points.
Please experience it in person and tell everyone all over the country!
Thank you!
I'll do my best!
Thank you!
Now that the greetings are over,
Mr. Marugame, please!
First of all, I'd like you to read what's written here.
And there's a little mystery in it.
Please solve it and enjoy Marugame for a day!
Yes!
This program "AKB Tourist Ambassador"
is not just about touring local tourist spots!
We solve the three mysteries surrounding the city
and tour tourist attractions,
and promote their charms!
If they can promote all three points of sightseeing, they can get self-appeal time.
However, the park is closed tomorrow as well, so they only have one day to promote their charms.
Shall we open it?
I'm curious.
How many years ago was this?
The paper.
Ta-da!
It's amazing.
If you touch it, it gets angry
Like a dust cloud
Refreshing wind
I don't know.
I don't know at all.
Is it about the wind?
If you touch it, it gets angry
Like a dust cloud
Refreshing wind
What does it mean?
Yukarun, Juri, do you know?
Today's weather?
I don't know at all. What should we do?
What should we do?
This is the first point of sightseeing.
Is it the first one?
It seems like it will take a day.
I don't know at all.
What is it?
They don't know at all, so they go inside the city hall to ask questions.
It says "guide" over there, so let's ask for a guide.
Yes.
Excuse me.
Do you have any memories of sightseeing points with this?
It's a little difficult, isn't it?
It's difficult, isn't it?
I can't grasp it.
As expected of the first person, she can't grasp the information.
What a shame!
I don't know where to go, but where should I go?
Juri, don't say that! There are still people, so you two do your best!
Do you have some time now?
Have you ever thought of this?
Isn't it "uchiwa"?
Do you think it's "uchiwa"?
Do you think it's "uchiwa" when you look at it in full?
I think it's the most produced and sold in Japan.
Is that so?
That's amazing!
She got the information she needed!
And...
"uchiwa" is famous all over the country.
Is "uchiwa" the best place to promote "uchiwa"?
If you go to the sea of the city hall...
Is it the sea?
Yes, there is "uchiwa museum".
Maybe it's over there.
Is it a museum?
Yes.
I got it!
And...
"uchiwa museum"?
Is it a museum?
Again, the name of the same place!
"uchiwa museum".
According to the information, they are going to "uchiwa museum".
Is it right?
"uchiwa" is there!
"uchiwa" is big!
It's everywhere!
And...
Oh!
Hello!
Is this correct?
Yes, it is correct!
The first sightseeing point is "Marugame-uchiwa", which is also designated as a traditional craft in Japan.
Let's go to this museum and get a lot of PR!
The first person who welcomed us was...
It's "Uchikko-chan"!
She is so cute!
She is a loose character of "Marugame-uchiwa", "Uchikko-chan"!
She has a "uchiwa" on her head.
Like this?
Yes, it's the opposite.
She is so cute!
Does she have "uchiwa"?
Yes, she does.
There are a lot of "uchiwa".
What is the difference between "uchiwa" and "marugame-uchiwa"?
"Marugame-uchiwa" has "hira-e" and "mochi-toko" which are flat "uchiwa" is of course "tage".
"tage" is amazing!
"mochi-toko" is flat and there are "maru-e" and "ryo- to" like this.
There are two kinds of "marugame-uchiwa".
"Marugame-uchiwa" has "hira-e" and "ito-de" and "andoru" like this.
That's amazing!
Making "uchiwa" with "marugame-uchiwa" started in the early period of Edo period.
It became famous as a souvenir of "konpira-san" and now it is 90% proud of "uchiwa" in Japan.
Is there the most expensive one?
Yes, there is.
How much do you think it is?
"uchiwa" is...
1,600 yen, isn't it?
No, it's 1,000 yen.
It's more expensive.
The most expensive one is...
5,000 yen.
Yes, 5,000 yen.
The biggest one is 10,000 yen.
The most expensive one is 5,000 yen.
Which one is it?
This one.
Wow.
The name is also "fufu".
It's a cloth.
Let me see it.
It's 5,000 yen.
Wow.
It has a very good feeling.
It's not like the plastic "uchiwa" you use.
That's right.
It's strong and weak.
It's 5,000 yen.
Don't touch it.
Moreover, "uchiwa" like this...
Wow.
It's big.
It's like a mango.
This is "uchiwa".
It's blue.
It's made of one bamboo shell.
It's true.
Wow.
If it's blue, it must be windy.
That's right.
Do you make it by yourself?
It's not a big one.
If it's this big,
I make it for fun.
Is it for sale?
It's not for sale.
Wow.
The material of "uchiwa" is bamboo.
The craftsmen
make it one by one.
Wow, it's blooming.
It's blooming.
Do you make it by yourself?
It's blooming.
It's blooming a lot.
Wow.
It looks like a normal rubber.
It's bamboo, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
It's hard.
It's impossible.
It's hard.
To make a bamboo frame,
a craftsman's skill is needed.
Therefore,
they will try "uchiwa" bamboo frame.
They will try "uchiwa" bamboo frame.
I will teach you now. She is a teacher, Ms. Arakawa.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
You have been teaching for about 15 years, right?
15 years?
If you don't listen carefully to what I say, you may get scared.
Nice to meet you.
Yes.
Then, in order of work, you put glue on the bone here, and you put paper on glue here, and you put them together here.
Yes.
The way of making is very simple.
First of all, you put glue on the bone here, and you put paper on it.
Yes.
You can do it.
You put it in this direction.
Oh, it's not in this direction.
You put it in this direction.
Is it okay for me?
You put it in this direction.
Oh, it's quite difficult.
If you don't put it in this direction, you can't measure everything from there.
It's like you said.
It's not good.
It's like you said.
It's okay.
Yes.
You can do it.
Underneath.
Here?
Please put them together.
You're good at it, Karun.
Is it okay?
Here.
Please look at me.
It's frozen.
It's a little out of alignment.
Yes.
Look at me.
That's right.
Oh, it's a little out of alignment.
It's a little out of alignment.
Yes.
Then, which one is bigger?
Bigger...
It's this one, isn't it?
Is it?
It's this one, isn't it?
Really?
It's better to have the right spacing.
It's beautiful.
The spacing of the bones.
It was beautiful when you put it down earlier.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Don't put it in excessively.
I'm sorry.
Wait for 15 minutes until the glue dries.
Yusha, we will now cut it into the shape of a flowerpot.
- Oh, you're going to cut it. - Yes.
- First, this. - What?! - Here you go.
- I was surprised just now! - What should we do?
How do you think you'll use it?
- Stretch it? Oh, no. That's udon. - That's udon, isn't it?
- That's udon. - Oh, I'm scared!
- Cut it all off. - I was surprised just now!
With this special knife, they cut off unnecessary parts.
- Yes. - Next, this part. - Yes.
- Two. - Again, this part. - Three.
- Oh! - Again, this part. - Oh, no!
- This part. - Oh, no! Oh, no! Oh, no!
- No, no. It's off. It's off. - It's off.
- It's definitely off. - Yes, it's off.
- Oh, no! It's a hack! - Here you go.
Even if it's slightly off, it's okay if you fix it!
All that's left is to reinforce the edges of the hair, which is said to be "hair and ears," so that it doesn't come off, and it's done!
- It's so cute. - It feels special.
- It's a sense of accomplishment. - Yes, it is.
- You made it yourself, didn't you? - Yes.
Now that we know the charms of round-faced knives...
Our first sightseeing point PR is complete!
- Here is the next sightseeing point. - Oh! - Is that so?
- Thank you very much. - Here it is again.
- Here you go. - Please open it.
- A small island... - A bird...
- It's a bird. - Sorry! Sorry! Seriously sorry!
- A small island... - A small island...
- Quietly resting... - Quietly resting...
- Gazing at a quiet moment... - Gazing at a quiet moment...
- Infinity bell? - Infinity bell?
- No, no, no... - No...
Here we go again. It's really hard to understand.
Silently standing on a small island, infinite bells telling you of quiet times.
What does this mean for the sightseeing point of Malgamesh?
In the sudden rain, let's go to Malgamesh station to take a look around.
There are quite a lot of people at the station, but there is no one who can ask questions.
This is really bad. They're shy now.
I'm embarrassed. What should we do?
It looks like there was a Shorinji Kenpo tournament and there are a lot of foreigners.
But they definitely don't know about it!
It's Shorinji Kenpo, right? They know about it.
In the meantime, will they be able to ask questions?
We don't really go to Malgamesh.
Oh, really?
We're not from there.
Oh, you're not from there.
I'm not really from there.
Oh, really?
They couldn't find anyone from there, and they have no information at all!
Then, Juri finds something!
Actually...
I found a tourist guide book!
Juri found it!
It's in a place like this...
It's here!
If it's here, there must be some useful information!
It's just before breaking the rules, but let's go!
Welcome!
Hello!
It looks like fun!
It does!
It looks like fun!
Is it a place related to an island or a bell?
Is it an insect island?
Isn't it an insect island?
Why do you say that?
It's a small island with an infinite bell.
Is it an insect island?
Is there a bell there?
There is!
It's true!
Oh, no!
I saw it!
Wow!
I found it!
How can we go there?
By boat!
By boat?
What?
Can we go there only by boat?
We can't go there by walking or swimming.
That's right!
By boat!
Right!
So, they're going to an insect island by water taxi!
While being blown by the salt breeze of Seto Inland Sea, they have to swim in the waves for 15 minutes
They have arrived at their destination, an insect island!
However, if they were wrong, it would be a huge time loss, but...
There are people who have flags!
This is déjà vu, isn't it?
Having flags means...
It means...
It's correct!
Hello! Nice to meet you!
You're correct!
The second sightseeing point is...
Seto Inland Sea's 4.2km island, Insect Island!
What exactly is "infinite money"?
By the way, Insect Island...
Why does Insect Island have this name?
In the past, this island was shaped like a cow...
So, Insect Island was like that in the past?
That's right!
What kind of people live here?
People who do business...
In the past, people called this island "mikan" (tangerine)
Is that "mikan"?
"Mikan" is not "mikan", but "dai dai" (tangerine)
"Dai dai"?
Yes!
In the past, many people called this island "mikan" (tangerine)
I've been on the school's textbook!
Is that so?
On "mikan" island...
By the way, do you know what's over there?
This!
What's this?
Do you know what it is?
Sesame seeds
Sesame seeds in a small jar
Sesame seeds are in this bush
I've never seen it before
Is this your father's house?
No, it's not
Can I touch it without your permission?
No, you can't
Sesame seeds! White sesame seeds?
Yes, white sesame seeds
I've never seen it before. I'm moved
And these kinds of fruits too
This is a kiwi
Kiwi! Amazing!
Kiwi
Isn't it a kiwi?
I thought a kiwi was buried
No, this is a natto (fermented soybeans)
Natto?
There is no shop on the island, so it's common here to grow them yourself
And even these kinds of things at home
There is a post here.
What is this?
Post.
There is a post.
Here.
Is it here?
It is in a normal house.
It is in a house.
Is it carried with this?
No, this is a post.
Do you put it in here?
I put it in here.
By the way, how old are the people?
Do you have children?
We don't have children.
They are over 60 years old.
The people over 60 years old are the youngest.
There are people over 70 years old.
How old is your father?
He is 70 years old.
Wow!
Oh, no!
Did you say something?
What?
What did you say?
I'm scared.
I'm sorry.
Thank you.
While being wary of insects, they aim for infinite money and go deeper into the island.
This way.
To the left.
Oh, this way?
Yes.
What's here?
Can we go there?
Yes, you can.
Then, I'll go first.
Why are you following me?
Hey, Yuka, don't betray me.
What's this?
Then, I'll go first.
Well...
It's even quieter now.
I'm scared.
It's quiet.
Where are we going?
A shrine.
A shrine?
I wonder where it is.
As they go deeper into the island, heavy rain falls.
Then...
I can see it!
It's over there.
I can see it!
Look!
I can see it!
What?
A bell?
It's a bell, isn't it?
That's right.
Heavy rain!
Finally, we've found an infinite bell!
In fact, there's a legend about this bell.
About 300 years ago, a sailor found this bell in the middle of the night.
Suddenly, everyone started to envy the rich man.
However, good things didn't last long.
After that, they met a storm and sank together with the ship.
Has anyone been to this island?
On the island, everyone goes to the temple and prays.
At that time, everyone comes here and prays.
I'm scared!
I don't want to die!
Well, you know...
The rich people do.
Is that so?
But...
We've come this far.
With my dad and in the rain.
That's right.
So...
We'll make it.
They don't seem to be very motivated.
But now that they've come this far, they'll try ringing the bell.
What do you wish for?
For me...
Peace all over the world!
The rock-paper-scissors tournament will be held in September.
I want to win it.
That's my wish.
Do you want to win it, too?
Peace all over the world?
It's a personal wish.
Yukari, you wish for it, too.
We wish for world peace.
Let's do it!
Let's say it together.
One, two...
- My heart is pounding. - Mine, too!
I feel like I've appeared.
Please don't cause trouble.
- I'll be happy. - You will?
- Yes!
- When we arrive next time, we'll collapse. - What?
When we arrive next time, we'll collapse.
- Of course we won't. - Of course we won't.
- When we arrive one more time, we'll collapse. - Yes.
- It's an interview. - Really?
- Since it's only one time... - Yay!
- There are good things and bad things. - Yay!
- Yay!
Please look forward to their future activities!
With a wish placed in the legend's bell...
The second tourist attraction PR is complete!
- This is the next tourist attraction. - Thank you!
- It's the third one today. - Oh, is it?
Yes.
Ta-da!
"Yuubi"?
- What? - "Yuubi"?
"Yuubi" is an art piece of stone drawn by "koubai" which is a "yuubi" fanfare.
What is it?
- What is it? - A "yuubi" fanfare?
- "Yuubi" is that thing, right? - That thing.
- But what is "koubai"? - I don't know.
"Yuubi" is an art piece of stone drawn by "koubai" which is a "yuubi" fanfare.
And what is "Marugameshi"'s tourist attraction?
It's raining. It's stopped.
Is it still raining?
It's money. It's money.
They came back to the ferry dock to ask questions.
Then...
There is a taxi.
But it's amazing.
But...
It's strange, isn't it?
What's this?
It looks like chicken.
I think a lot of taxi drivers know about it.
One, two...
Excuse me!
Oh, well...
No, it's not like that.
I want you to get off.
Oh, you are kind.
You are kind.
I'm excited. Excuse me.
Excuse me.
Don't you think of something like this?
An auction.
An auction?
What is it like?
Don't you know?
I don't know about an auction.
An auction of a castle or a wall.
What?
Marugame castle is very famous.
Marugame castle?
Auction of a castle or a wall.
Marugame castle means stone?
Stone, stone.
This is...
As expected of the taxi driver.
He got the information.
But there is one more thing they are curious about.
Isn't this taxi weird?
This is a famous marugame.
Is marugame famous?
I've never heard of it.
It says "Jujutaxi" on it.
It's cute.
It's delicious.
I want to ride it.
Can I ride it?
It's okay if you can ride it.
Can I ride it?
You can ride it.
There is a cushion.
Look at it.
It's cute.
"Jujutaxi" cushion.
Since they were hungry,
they went to eat a famous marugame, chicken with bones.
It reminded me of udon noodles in Kagawa prefecture.
It's not only udon noodles.
It's spicy.
Are you hungry?
I'm hungry.
I only ate udon noodles.
Ten minutes later,
they arrived at the recommended restaurant.
What is "chicken with bones"?
Excuse me.
It's big.
It's different from what I thought.
I thought it would be more like this.
That one is the parent chicken.
This one is the young chicken.
Parent and young?
The young chicken is soft, but the parent chicken is like an egg.
It's like a moth's parent.
It's a little hard, but the more you chew it, the better it tastes and it's delicious.
Parent chicken is more popular for us.
Is that so?
Let's start with the mother chicken.
Mother.
Let's start with the mother chicken.
The mother chicken is like a real bird.
I didn't know it would be such a bold taste.
Let's eat.
How is it?
I told you, the more you chew it, the better it tastes.
The more you chew it, the better it tastes.
Can you taste it?
It's very spicy.
It's spicy.
Is it spicy?
It's spicy, but as I said, the more you chew it, the better it tastes.
I went back to the beginning.
Child.
Young chicken.
Let's eat young chicken.
Young chicken looks soft.
Young chicken is big.
Let's eat.
It's crispy.
Oh, it's good.
It's very soft.
But it's really spicy.
Is it pepper?
It might be pepper.
This one is sticky.
Now, they will compare each other.
Let's eat.
Look at the sound.
It's good.
It's good, isn't it?
Tender young people like it.
On the other hand, parents like it.
It's really hard.
It's like...
It's like cartilage.
Can you compare it with an AKB song?
Fresh and...
Researchers and...
Can I say it?
Researchers and...
Well...
It's my first time eating it.
For now...
This one is crunchy.
This one is...
Soft.
It's like...
How can I say it?
It's like...
Are you okay?
You look like you're in pain.
But it's good.
It's really good.
Sticky young people like researchers and...
Parents like it.
When you come to Marugameshi, please try it!
When we went to the city hall at first, we could see it.
Yes, it was far away, but we could see it.
I thought it would come for sure.
And look at it! It has a flag!
It's here!
It has it!
Hello!
Wow!
It has a flag!
Is it correct?
That's right! It's correct!
It's correct!
We did it!
The last sightseeing point is Marugamesho, which is known as one of Japan's 100 famous castles due to its stonewall height and beauty.
Have you ever been to a castle?
No, we haven't.
Castles...
Do you know it?
It's their first time seeing a castle in Japan.
And who appeared in front of them?
The owner of Marugamesho.
It's high!
It's 66 meters high and on top of a mountain.
On top of a mountain?
Yes, it's on top of a mountain.
Then we can't go up there, can we?
No, you can't go up there.
You have to walk up from Mikairizaka over there.
It's tough, but...
What?
Yes.
We're going up a mountain now.
That's right.
It's quite steep, isn't it?
Yes, it is.
It's like a slide.
It's steep.
I can't do it!
Are you going to dash?
It's very steep.
Steep!
Oh, no!
I can't do it!
This is reassuring.
But you two...
You're always dancing with your fingers, so you'll be fine, won't you?
Dancing and climbing a mountain...
The muscles you use are different.
Climbing a mountain is tiring.
It's amazing.
The rocks are amazing.
They carried rocks one by one and piled up rocks here.
How did they pile up rocks up there ?
At that time, there were no cranes.
No cranes.
There were no cranes, but they built a tree and piled up rocks like cranes.
It's amazing.
These rocks are from the north side of Sanromaru.
They are the highest rocks in Marugamechō.
Rocks ?
Yes, high rocks. They are about 22 meters high.
Wow, that's amazing.
The corners are curved and go up beautifully.
It's called "oogi no kōbai".
It's very beautiful.
"oogi" ?
oogi no kōbai
Oh, "oogi no kōbai" !
Isn't it that ?
Yes, it is.
It's amazing.
It's good.
It's a historical rock.
Rock !
This is amazing.
I feel negative temperature.
I want to climb up there.
Climb up there ?
It's amazing.
No, you can't.
You can't climb up there ?
The last one meter is scary.
When I was cleaning grass, I was clinging to it and climbing up.
That's why I'm afraid of the last one meter.
I'm afraid of whether I can climb up there with courage or not.
To such a high place.
Have you ever climbed up there ?
Yes, I have.
When I was young, I climbed up there.
This is the wisdom and effort of pioneers.
However, both of you still have a long way to go in Marugame Castle.
It's a slope again.
It's the last steep slope, so do your best.
Is it the last one ?
No, it's not.
This steep slope is the last one.
Oh, it's a steep slope.
It's the last one.
I'd like to consume udon and boneless chicken.
That's right. Do your best and go on a diet.
I won't eat it.
It's really tough.
Climbing up a steep slope takes only five minutes.
And then...
The slope is finally over.
It's over. The steep slope is over.
Look at the scenery, Yukarin.
It's true. It's amazing.
It's like a sense of accomplishment.
Have we arrived yet?
Yes, we are now climbing up a two-story high place.
This place is called "Sannomaru". It's a three- story high place on top of a mountain.
Then we will go to "Ninomaru" and finally "Honmaru".
"Honmaru" is said to attack, but "Honmaru" is the last place.
"Honmaru" is the highest place.
So, it's even more delicious.
It's like a park here.
Over there is a well said to be Japan's deepest well.
Is it a deep well?
Japan's deepest well dug in the middle of a castle. What is it?
This well is said to be the deepest well in Japan.
Let's see if there is water in it.
Ishii, let's drop it.
We dropped it.
Even now, there is more than 30 meters of water in this well.
This is really scary.
There is another legend in this scary well.
There is another scary legend.
There was a man named Hazaka Juzaburo who built this stone wall.
He was a famous man who built stone walls.
When he saw this stone wall, he praised it.
He said, "If it is such a wonderful stone wall, no one can climb it."
Then, Juzaburo said, "If you have an iron rod, you can climb this stone wall."
Then, he climbed up.
Then, the man said, "This is not good. If the enemy asks you, this is not good."
He said, "Juzaburo, measure the depth of this well."
When Juzaburo measured the depth of the well, he dropped a large stone and killed the man.
Why?
This is such a legendary well.
This is scary.
Why?
This is just a rumour.
Of course, no one should be buried in this well.
Finally, we will go to the top of the well.
This is "Tenshu" in Honmaru.
Can we see it from below?
This is a touching reunion.
Can we go up to here?
This is a touching reunion.
This is amazing.
This is a reunion.
It took an hour for us to arrive.
The scenery is amazing.
This is amazing.
It's a little burning now.
What is that?
That bridge.
Rainbow bridge.
What is it?
Seto Ohashi.
That's right.
Seto Ohashi.
Do you know where Seto Ohashi is connected to?
Ushijima.
Ushijima is...
Ushijima is the island in front of you.
Okayama.
Correct.
Okayama?
Okayama.
It's connected to Okayama.
That's right. It's connected.
If you look at the tip of Seto Ohashi, you can see Okayama Prefecture.
Unfortunately, it's a little cloudy today and it's hard to see.
If you cross that bridge, you'll see Okayama.
That's right. If you cross that bridge, you'll see Okayama.
Isn't it amazing?
After enjoying the wonderful scenery, they finally go inside the castle.
This castle was built in 1660, during the reign of King Takakazu of Kyogoku.
It is the oldest castle in Shikoku.
It is easy to build. There are many pillars.
Why are there pillars like this?
If you don't run, you can't build.
But aren't there many pillars like this?
That's why no matter how many earthquakes or typhoons come...
I see!
I'm sorry. It's a hiccup.
Juri suddenly started hiccuping. Is she okay?
How many floors are there?
There are only three floors.
Only three floors?
Only three floors.
The higher you go, the smaller it gets.
If you go up to the third floor, you can see how small it is.
Tourists often say, "It's so small!"
I want to see it!
Shall we go up?
It's steep, so we'll go up first.
It's steep!
It's really steep!
Isn't it dangerous?
It's scary. Going up is scarier than going down.
When you bring up a nursery school kid...
There are kids who cry when you go down.
There are kids who cry because it's scary.
Then, let's go!
Wow! This is dangerous!
It's a floor!
It's steep!
It's really scary!
I don't like it!
I might not be able to go down.
It's scary! It's really scary!
Do you know the stairs of your parents' house?
No, I can climb it right away.
I have a long back.
Why is it old-fashioned?
After all, it is harder to attack when attacked.
Certainly!
If you go up like this, you will have a hard time.
No, it's scary.
Everything is made to fight.
Again!
Is there again?
It's dangerous!
Yukari, it's dangerous!
Let's go!
It's high!
But it's high! This staircase is scary!
This staircase is really steep!
It's true!
It's narrow!
It's true!
It's narrow!
It's narrow, isn't it?
It's here!
This is the smallest wooden store in Japan.
However, it is small, but it is unique to the Edo period.
After all, it is a castle, so they are thinking of protecting it.
For example, look at the thickness of the wall.
Is it the same thickness above and below?
It's completely different!
It's different, isn't it?
The lower part is hot, isn't it?
It's hot up to a little higher than a human's back, isn't it?
The reason for this is that when a gun is fired, the bullet is heated so that it does not penetrate.
However, the lower part is quite hot.
Normally, you can't see it from the outside.
However, if you are attacked, you can't see it from the outside, so you can fire a gun as soon as you break it.
It's a defense facility.
It's designed like this.
Do you aim from here?
That's right. You can aim from here or over there.
It's true!
I've seen it twice and it's quite common.
But if it doesn't penetrate...
Normally, you don't use it.
If you are attacked, you will use it.
However, because there was no war or battle here in Marugame Castle, it wasn't used.
However, the symmetrical part with the hot wall...
What a beautiful scenery !
Yes, it is !
Wow, it's amazing !
It's amazing !
Wow, it's amazing !
What's this ? Isn't there a glass ?
Scary !
It's a string !
What ?
A pigeon will come out of the string, so it's just tied up.
Oh, there is only a string tied up.
It's amazing !
That place looks like a hotel.
Oh, it's not a hotel. It looks like a castle.
I'm really sorry !
Anyway, it's amazing !
I didn't say it's a castle, so I made a mistake.
In this way, having climbed up to the top of the highest peaks in Japan,
PR for the last sightseeing point is completed !
Both of you have obtained three wonderful sightseeing points,
so you have acquired self-promotion time.
Wow, I did it !
I did it !
How was your day of sightseeing in Marugameshi ?
It was in a blink of an eye.
I had a lot of fun.
It was my first time to come here.
I'm worried if we could promote it.
I was worried if we could promote it.
I was worried about it.
But when I came here, I just enjoyed it.
But it was amazing.
It was amazing.
Now, it's time for Juri's self-promotion.
Start !
I'm Juri Takahashi of AKB48 Team A.
I'm 15 years old.
In Team A, I'm in charge of taking care of kids.
I'm going to imitate Mr. Degawa's voice.
Here we go.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Everyone, please support me.
Bye-bye.
Now, it's time for Yukarin's self-promotion.
Start !
I'm Yukarin Sasaki of Team A.
My personality is that I'm clumsy.
No, I'm not clumsy.
My personality is strange.
I'm not good at speaking.
It's hard for me to communicate well.
But I'm clumsy, natural and often get lost.
And I often worry about my fans.
I love yogurt.
When I eat yogurt, I can become friends with lactic acid bacteria.
It's boring, isn't it?
Everyone, please support me.
Bye-bye.
It took us 9 hours to walk around Marugameshi in the morning.
The locals helped us and we were able to promote all sightseeing spots.
Yukaren, Juri, thank you for your hard work!
I'm scared! I'm scared! I'm really scared!
Marugameshi has delicious udon and fried chicken.
They taught us a lot of basic things.
There are a lot of different islands.
The castle is really high up.
The scenery from above is really moving.
It's hard to find Marugameshi like this.
Everyone, please come! Thank you!
Tasuki, as a one-day tour guide, will be moved on to the next member.
Next episode, we might go to your city!
Do you know who they are?
Uchikko and Uchio.
