AISubs v3.8.2
I'm Kimura
This time I came to Ueda, Shibuya in Nagano prefecture
Good morning, Mr. Shimada.
Well, Mr. Shimada, where I am now is the place where Sanada Yukimura Yukai's Ueda Castle used to be.
And, well, Mr. Shimada's friend "the touch" or "shimada shuhei" also takes care of this area in Nagano.
So, thank you very much, everyone in Nagano.
I'm from Shimada.
You're a fortune-teller, aren't you?
This time, Mr. Shimada came to Ueda, Nagano prefecture.
In this regular Ueda park, thousands of cherry blossoms will bloom in the coming season and the park will be bright pink.
In addition, there are many other cherry blossoms in the city.
If you want to visit this park in spring, you must visit Ueda, Shibuya.
It takes one hour and twenty minutes by bullet train from the city center and you can get great access to this park.
Then, let's go and look for some food.
Board, come on!
If you come to Ueda, you should eat "honyara"!
That's what it is.
Now, let's go and look for some food!
Thank you.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for moving.
Thank you.
What kind of food will Mr. Himura encounter in Ueda, Nagano Prefecture?
Watch out, watch out.
Come on, come on.
First of all, let's ask people in Yanagi Town, which is five minutes' drive from Ueda Station.
Wow, the weather is great. It feels good.
- Wow, the weather is good. - Wow, what is this town?
Does it feel like an old Joka Town?
- It's nice here. - It's like the Edo period.
There are some old-fashioned buildings left.
- Wow, wow, wow. - Mr. Himura, hello.
- Hello. - Hello, hello.
- Hello. - Hello.
What kind of shop is this?
- It's a fried chicken shop. - A fried chicken shop.
Yes, yes. Ueda is famous for their delicious fried chicken.
- Oidare Yakitori. - Oidare Yakitori, right?
- Yes, Ueda is famous for their Oidare Yakitori. - Oidare Yakitori.
I hope they sell Oidare Yakitori.
If someone tells me about it, I'll definitely come.
- Thank you for your time. - Thank you for your hard work.
Thank you!
It's good, isn't it?
It's perfect, isn't it?
Let's go through here and ask people who live around here.
Is anyone here?
Oh, hello there!
Excuse me!
Hello, I'm Himura.
Oh, hello there!
What brings you here all of a sudden?
I see you're an otaku.
I'm a magnificent otaku.
Oh, wow!
Wow, what a magnificent garden!
Would you like me to come in?
Would you?
Excuse me for disturbing you.
Nice to meet you. Hello.
Oh, my.
Are you off today?
Yes, I'm off.
Oh, I see.
Could you tell me your name?
I'm Hattori.
Hattori, how old are you?
I think I'm 56.
You're a little older than me, aren't you?
What do you do for a living?
I'm a gardener.
I collect asparagus.
What?
Do you do any household chores?
No, I just plant one.
Where do you plant it?
Just one?
See?
And you only got one?
I only got one.
That's an important one!
How can you only get one asparagus?
I know, right?
It's a precious one.
Wow, asparagus are nice.
How should we eat it today?
What should we do?
Salad is nice, too.
Salad is short, you know.
Should we grill it?
Grill it or boil it and eat it as it is?
Oh, boil it and eat it with mayonnaise and shichimi?
Yes, something like that.
That's nice, isn't it?
Oh, my.
But it's only one.
It's only one!
Hattori-san.
Yes?
There's a TV show like this.
Have you seen it before?
It's called "Sekkaku Gourmet".
Yes.
It's like this.
"If you've come all the way to Ueda,"
"honyada da, tabete keya!"
Oh.
I thought you might know something good.
Something good?
Yes.
I like noodles.
Oh, that's nice.
Like "koyasan".
"Koyasan"?
"Koyasan".
I only do it at night.
You don't do it in the afternoon, either?
I don't do it in the afternoon, either.
Wow, that's rare!
What is it?
By the way, Hattori-san, what kind of ramen is it?
It's a soy sauce ramen with back fat.
I love it! I love it so much!
Soy sauce back fat is so good!
Could you write it down for me?
The place?
The name of the restaurant and the name of the menu.
"Kouya"
I thought you would just write "soy sauce ramen"
No, no, no.
Why do you like this place, Hattori-san, "Kouya"?
I'm sure there are many ramen restaurants around here.
It's close to Ueda's "Nomiyagai".
So, many people come here after drinking.
Ah!
So, it's even more delicious after drinking!
It's delicious even if you don't drink it.
It's so spicy!
By the way, Hattori-san, could you hold this for me and read it for me?
Yes, please.
If you come to Ueda, you should try "Kouya", soy sauce ramen and back fat!
Thank you so much! It's wonderful!
"Back fat", you should say it again!
It's amazing!
It's amazing! Do you still eat back fat?
Sometimes I want to eat it.
It's hard for me and my seniors to eat back fat more than me.
It's like, "If my seniors work hard, I'll do it, too!"
When I get older, I think about back fat all the time.
So, they wait for the opening hours and go to the shooting site.
"Back fat" and "Mashimashi ramen"
It's amazing!
I hope I can eat it.
Ah!
Thank you!
"Kouya"
It's cool here!
Okay, I'll go there.
Wow, it smells so good.

- Wow! - Got it, got it!
- Got it, got it! - Wow! It's gone, gone, gone!
- You haven't eaten it yet. - It's good!
This is...
This is so good!
The key ingredient of this soup is homemade soy sauce made of boiled pork.
It's been simmered for two hours to extract pork bone and vegetables.
It's very rich in flavor.
This deep pork bone and soy sauce soup makes you want to drink it.
Now, let's drink it!
The deep pork bone and soy sauce soup.
-This is amazing. -It's like heavy snow.
This is amazing.
Snow from my eye oil.
The noodles are Kouya's special tube and straight noodles.
-Then... -Wow!
Homemade char siu stewed for three hours.
That's two servings!
Then there's homemade noodles.
-Onions... -This is so good.
And an egg.
Kouya's fatty back soy sauce noodles are complete!
This is great!
The soup...
-It's even better. -This is great.
I can't see the bottom of the bowl. The back fat is even better.
-Let's eat! -Go for it!
This is good, isn't it?
There is so much back fat in it, but it doesn't feel tough.
Back fat is really good.
It comes in a big bite.
There is a real back fat sweetness in it.
There is a soft sweetness in my mouth.
Go for it!
It's so good!
I like it!
As I thought, noodles, back fat and soup get mixed together.
It's so good!
It's really good!
This is how I eat it.
This is how Hideki Saijo ate it.
I eat it like this.
It's really hot.
I eat it like this.
This is the best.
It's like pulling soup with noodles.
If you fry it like this, soup will fall like this.
This is really good.
The last one is...
Zero, zero, zero.
It's really, really hot, but this is delicious!
Oh, it's been a while.
It's been a while.
Ah, it looks delicious!
The pork is delicious! It's delicious!
The pork is also tender! It's delicious! It's delicious!
It's delicious!
It looks so delicious!
This is the last one!
This is the end!
If you eat this once, you will definitely want to come back!
I want to eat it again!
That's for sure!
Thank you very much!
You are the best!

It's this cinnamon sweet.
Wow, it looks so good!
The cinnamon sweet produced in Nagano Prefecture...
is high in sugar, has a strong sweetness, and has a crunchy texture.
On top of the pie crust covered in almond cream...
they usually top it with a sweet-tasting apple.
In this shop, in order for you to enjoy the taste of the apple itself...
they use a raw apple...
and bake it in the oven!
I've never seen this shape before.
Bake it in the oven for 45 minutes, and you can enjoy the sweetness of the cinnamon sweet as much as you like!
You can enjoy this cinnamon sweet with this crispy and delicious apple pie!
I'd like to take this cinnamon sweet to the studio!

Where did you fall in love with him?
He was a little brighter.
When I started seeing him, I became quiet.
You're busy.
You don't have time to talk, do you?
Yes, I do.
Instead of that, I talk to him and tease him.
Is it love?
Yes, it's love.

I went there in a hurry.
That's good.
It's nice.
This is also a kind of fate, isn't it?
That's right.

A firewood shop that attracts locals all day long.
It was founded in 157 AD.
It's the oldest Japanese confectionery shop in Ueda Prefecture, and it's been around since the 2nd year of Meiji.
Wow, that's a lot of firewood!
All of them look delicious!
There are more than 40 kinds of confectionery, and the Japanese confectionery shop is particular about...
Since its establishment, all of its products have been made by hand.
Start with the popular salted bean daifuku!
Anko dango!
Wow, what's this?
Mima confectionery's Shizuoka prefecture-produced strawberry daifuku!
You can enjoy many of Ueda's favorite confectionery.
Wow, that looks delicious!
What else do you like?
Don't you eat it with the confectionery?
By the way, since it's Ueda's specialty, I recommend walnut dango!
Also, since it's Nagano's specialty, I recommend oyaki!
Wow, that looks delicious!
Can you say "this", "this", and "this" one more time?
How about mitarashi?
Do you want mitarashi?
Should we go with mitarashi first?
Is mitarashi enough for you?
We like mitarashi.
Okay, let's go with mitarashi!
Let's go with mitarashi!
Which one do you want?
One or two?
Can I have one, too?
Sorry, Momoe-chan.
You like mitarashi, Momoe-chan.
She wrote it for me!
Since it's Momoe-chan's recommendation, I'll have mitarashi dango!
Thank you!
Mo...maki...maki...
Oh! Makito-kun?!
Good morning!
Hello! Nice to meet you!
Nice to meet you!
Well, Momoe-chan introduced me to this shop today!
Oh, I see. Thank you very much!
Thank you!
She's like an adult!
Ueda's children are...
She's like an adult!
She's like a young man!
What do you mean "welcome"?
Thank you for waiting!
Wow, it looks delicious!
Momo-chan, let's go!
Momo-chan, here you go!
It already smells like pork cutlet!
It looks delicious!
First, steam the dango dough for an hour in a steamer
Heat it up to the core
When you use a mochi maker...
Wow!
Soak it in ice water and let it soak in water
By doing so, you can create a great "koshi" (dango)
You can make more from here!
With just one hand, you can create a delicious and chewy texture
Then, you can carefully bake each one of them
Wow!
If you add a lot of sweet and sour sauce made by the head chef...
Wow!
I want to eat this!
With this, you can create a delicious and chewy dango!
It looks delicious!
Thank you for it!
Wow, it's delicious!
Oh, it's delicious! It's sweet and salty and it's very delicious!
Oh, it's delicious!
You like mitarashi, don't you?
Yes.
You look like an adult, don't you, Momoi-chan?
Yes.
Isn't it amazing that this has been going on for more than 150 years?
When I think about it like that.
How about you, Makoto-kun? What kind of sister is Momoi-chan?
What kind of impression do you have of her?
She has a kind impression.
You played with her a lot, didn't you?
Yes.
I see. You have a kind impression of her. Aren't you happy about it?
Yes, I'm happy about it.
You two look like real brothers.
We're both children, but we're already in kindergarten.
How cute!
I see.
She's like a little brother and a little sister.
That's interesting.
She's a cute picture.
I'm grateful for her existence.
Oh, is that so?
It's a small park nearby.
It's a small park, isn't it?
We used to play here every day.
We used to run around and play.
I see.
I only have memories of when we used to run around and play.
We didn't know each other right away when we met.
We didn't know each other for about three years.
Momoi-chan became a middle school student.
We didn't have much time together, did we?
Yes.
I'm happy that you introduced me to Momoi-chan,
but it's been a while since I met you.
It's been a while.
I was wondering what you were up to.
You said that sometimes.
Sometimes.
I'm glad you mentioned it.
We should play together again!
I'm going to middle school again, so I'd like you to take care of me.
You should teach her about middle school.
I'd like you to.
How cute!
Please teach her about school.
Okay.
Let's go!
I'm surprised. A lot of things happen.
It's delicious. It's really delicious.
Thank you very much.
I want you to leave this kind of water.
On the contrary, it was delicious.
It was the best. It was delicious. Thank you very much.
I enjoyed various things.
This is the end of this program, but thank you very much.
Can I take a picture of you?
Of course, of course, of course.
Let's take a picture.
That's good.
This is a program sticker.
Thank you very much.
Here you are.
Thank you very much.
You're welcome.
I'm glad I opened a store.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry it was sudden.
Thank you very much.
It's like an old story.
It's like a modern girl going to get a frying pan.
It started with a frying pan.
You haven't seen each other for about three years, have you?
That's right.
It's been a while since we met.
I was really impressed.
My husband and my mother.
I've been wanting to see you for a long time.
We were good friends.
That's nice.
That's right.
