AISubs v3.8.3
Ready? Five, six, seven, eight!
Okay!
Look at me!
Knees!
Legs out!
Look at me, everyone!
Okay, okay!
That's all for today.
Let's practice more next time.
Okay.
Thank you for today.
Thank you!
I'm tired.
It's hard to pretend like you're regretting it.
I know! What do you want to do after this? Go out for dinner?
Sounds good!
Right? Let's go!
Sorry, I can't go.
What?
I have to go out.
At this hour?
Yeah. Sorry, I'll go ahead.
Oh, take care!
What if you're my boyfriend?
Stop it!
But... what if you're not?
What if Yuki...
I'm quitting being an idol.
Why in the middle of the night?
Is there a flying bottle?
It's still dark.
What's wrong?
Oh, no, well...
Can I use this ticket?
I was suddenly sent home...
And...
I called a guy's company...
The ticket is valid.
You can come for free, so please make sure you come.
What?
Yes, you can use this.
I see. Thank you.
Is your baggage done?
Yes, please.
Certainly.
Is there anything fragile, precious items, matches, lighters, and other dangerous items in your baggage?
Cosmetics and some bottles.
Then, as fragile things, I will put a fragile tag.
[PH] I removed the old paint with ecological V33 gel.
Oh, and...
And?
If you see a fragile tag, make sure you remove it and look closely.
Huh? Okay.
Don't forget. Please be careful.
I understand.
Now, please proceed to the boarding gate as per security inspection.
Today's flight is number 62.
Thank you.
So... where are you going?
If you head for 62 Toh Joukutsu, you will know.
What?
Have a good day.
Okay.
[PH] No one's here.
[PH] ANA is reporting for duty.
[PH] ANA 48, second ship, Futtori Airport.
[PH] All passengers who have not boarded, please come to gate 62.
[PH] Futtori?
I'm sorry, but I can't.
I'm not allowed to board.
[PH] I'm sorry.
Excuse me, but is this ticket okay?
Yes, it's you, Ms. Hirata.
Thank you for using ANA48 today.
By the way, where are the other customers?
The same plane will be your only one.
What? What is this?
This flight is a midnight final approach.
Midnight... final... approach?
Normally, flight reservations are up to 355 days later,
but we can make special reservations for one year or 30 years later,
and give a special flight to someone important who can travel in the sky.
I see...
When someone important like your children's admission or graduation
when someone important in life is at a crossroads of life,
or when you get married or have a baby,
you don't know when it will happen, but when a certain event happens,
for that time, for yourself,
or for someone else,
it will be a special item that you can reserve for use.
Hmm... like...
like a time capsule?
Oh, what a lovely metaphor!
Yes.
You are now opening the time capsule left by someone.
Someone?
Who left it for me?
Why me?
For what?
Is there a fan or something?
No, I don't have such a fan.
Mr. Hiroki Nagaoka has reserved a flight for you.
What?
His flight is scheduled for 2 a.m.
We will be able to take you to the plane at 1 a.m. 45 minutes.
Please wait near exit 62 until we take you there.
Why?
Why...
did you...
What's wrong?
Oh, you mean...
We're here to help you out today.
I see.
Did you notice anything strange outside?
No, I just...
I was wondering what that car was doing at night.
Oh, that's a towing tractor.
Huh... Why are you doing it at this hour?
It's practice.
Practice? This late?
Yes.
Aircrafts are called ground handling to provide safety and landing support.
Carrying passengers' luggage, and driving aircraft...
In the afternoon, there are so many new planes flying and the airport is busy, so we practice secretly like that on the day of our stay.
Wow, cool!
Isn't it cool to work for real without anyone knowing?
Is that so?
I'm an idol.
I haven't sold much yet.
Idols work really hard to stand on stage.
But I thought it was cool to show it for the first time.
Oh, I'm sorry. I'm talking about myself.
Certainly, you were lost in doubt because you couldn't eat up bread even though it was already opened and bag is full.
I think it's a wonderful effort.
You often observe it.
Grand staff often observe customers.
It is also one of jobs.
If there is no captain or parents quarrel,
if children are angry,
if the door of the plane is closed, it will not open for hours.
Therefore, we observe customers and share with staff in the plane.
I didn't know.
Is your anxiety over this trip?
It's only anxiety on such a sudden trip.
But this ticket was sent to me by my father, who I haven't met for a long time.
I've been turning my back for 15 years.
I want to see you now.
I will guide you to the ANA48B.
I will guide you to all passengers from now on.
Please come to the entrance.
It's time.
Yes.
Irata-sama...
Travel...
A journey?
No, I sincerely pray for you to have a good journey.
Thank you.
[PH] I'm going to the hospital.
[PH] I'll be back soon.
[PH] I'll be waiting for you.
I have to learn how to dance.
I don't know why,
I'm at my own graduation performance, but I'm not dancing.
Thank you! See you!
Wow!
Thank you!
You're so cute!
Kaz, thank you!
Thank you for coming again!
Thank you!
Oh, and thank you, Toru!
See you next time!
Thank you very much.
I like singing and dancing, and I like fans, but for some reason, when I face men, I can't speak well.
I finally got into my dream of being an and b48 member,
but I probably...
I'm not suited for being an idol.
That was fun.
Yeah, it was fun.
I'm sorry, everyone.
I'm thinking of quitting being an idol
by the time I graduate college this spring.
What?!
I'm sorry.
[PH] you
Sir, your drink...
Oh, how nostalgic!
Tottori Prefecture, Kureyoshi City.
The city where I was born and raised.
This river...
When I was little, I almost fell into it.
My dad saved me.
When I dropped my toy ring I cherished so much,
he picked it up for me.
When I was little, singing and dancing were fun for me.
My dad always praised me for it.
And that's how I became an idol.
But now...
When I got home, I had dinner.
When it got dark, my dad came home.
The three of us ate dinner.
It was common, but it was fun.
Dad... now...
Where are you?
[PH] I'm not going to let you go.
Dad, why did you go to do clay all of a sudden?
Yukie, you're holding this letter and going to the dark world...
Does that mean I'm no longer in this world?
Huh?
No, no, wait a minute. What do you mean?
Midnight Final Approach.
This journey that can be sent beyond time...
I made a reservation for my daughter when I died.
[PH] No way...
I wonder when you're reading this letter.
Maybe you're not changing as much as you are in this letter.
Last year, you weren't feeling well, so you wrote this letter.
I heard you were graduating college.
I've been trying to reach you, but I thought I'd do it as a parent.
I made a reservation for this trip.
The last one?
Yuki...
I'm sorry for causing you and your mother so much pain.
My mother only contacted me once after you and I left town.
Huh?
That's when I heard.
Ever since I left this city,
I've stopped hesitating...
when I talk to adults.
It's Dad's fault.
That's what I thought.
I felt terrible about it, and I was filled with regret.
I...
I was so grateful for you, but...
I couldn't be with you three, no matter what.
I think you felt the same way, as a mother.
When I read this letter,
I wasn't sure if you were a college student or if you were already graduated and working.
Either way...
I pray with all my heart that you are happy now.
I'm sorry I can't be there for you when you're having a hard time.
But I want you to remember this.
No matter what...
No matter how far apart we are...
Dad said he was on Yuki's side.
Perhaps Yuki has already forgotten her childhood memories.
But I never forgot...
Running through a white wall to the nursery school...
While walking along Benten-sama's path,
she secretly asked her mother for ice cream.
All of that,
as time passed by,
I could remember.
I really wanted to tell Yuki about that memory,
and even though I thought it would be a bother,
I made her send me on this journey.
Because if you don't leave those memories here,
they'll disappear forever and become nothing.
Stupid.
You can't do things you couldn't do.
When I heard you became an idol, I was worried, but I was so happy.
You've been singing and dancing so well since you were little, and I've been the happiest when I watch you.
Thank you for giving me that happiness, even after we parted ways.
But I really wanted to give you happiness, too.
I couldn't give you the warmth of a father and family.
I'm really sorry.
And thank you so much.
I hope you'll stay healthy and happy.
Dad...
Ms. Hirata?
Ms. Hirataki?
Yes, that's me.
I'm Sora!
Sora...
I was in the same kindergarten as you, Sora Yomasaki!
What? Sora?
Yes! It's been a while!
What? It's been a while!
You were fine?
Of course!
Huh? What about you, Yuki?
Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine.
You're still bad at lying.
And you're strong.
Well, whatever.
But... how did you know?
Even though it hasn't been 15 years?
I'm your dad.
Huh?
I've worked in this shop since high school, but...
Since then, Dad has come to the store a lot.
He told me that Yuki-chan became an idol.
Look, over there.
Because Yuki-chan became an idol,
even in the distant dark,
I can see my daughter.
Dad looked so happy.
So I was watching him, too.
I see. Thank you.
I was worried about you because you haven't come recently.
How is your dad doing?
He died recently.
I see...
He moved out and left his home.
I thought you moved somewhere.
I'm sorry.
It's okay. I didn't know either.
But still!
You left right before the graduation ceremony.
We promised we'd sing our farewell song.
I'm sorry.
Dad always said the same thing when he was drunk.
She couldn't hear her daughter sing at the graduation ceremony.
A song?
At the graduation ceremony?
Yes.
Oh, right!
She's childhood friends.
She asked me to give it to her.
Yuki moved out. It was right before the graduation ceremony.
The teacher at the nursery told me to give it to you.
She was giving it to her dad, but I got it for myself.
This song...
It brings back memories, doesn't it?
That's what I wanted to ask you, Dad.
Do you think I'll get there?
Even if we're far apart, if we're idols...
I'm glad you came to do the dark.
Welcome back, Ms. Hirata.
How was my final approach?
It was great.
Who are you?
The staff who conducted my final approach.
I'm Masai, the ground handling.
I was responsible for the plane's cause.
I'm sorry for being watching you practice.
I'm sorry.
No, no, you were so cool!
I'm Mizushima, maintenance worker.
I've been told that you've been properly matured in the reclining chair from the customer service staff.
From the engine and other parts of the car to the seat in the car, we've been maintaining it in a row.
Oh, you've been watching it!
You're also maintaining the car, aren't you?
Yes, and...
I'm Ota, customer service staff.
I was able to support your journey on board.
On the plane, you seemed to be having some trouble,
but on the plane back, you seemed to be much better,
so I was relieved.
It's all thanks to you this time!
Likewise, I'm very happy that you say so.
Huh? But...
How was it?
Anyone else...
[PH] It's okay.
But why are you planning a secret midnight trip like this?
Is there a reason for midnight?
This tour is a special reservation style.
I don't know when you will give me a reservation.
So I'm working at midnight.
No, it's not like that.
I thought it might be a big news.
That is a company secret.
Thank you. But...
But...
Your satisfaction in this journey is our greatest joy.
A traveler is a traveler, and it means facing new things and places and challenging yourself.
A traveler is... a traveler?
I sincerely pray for your new challenges to be successful and great.
[PH] Thank you.
I'd like to go on one more journey.
I'd like to face challenges.
So, if you don't mind...
What is it?
Could you lend me your strength?
[PH] Everyone!
Thank you for everything, from beginning to end and for the encore!
I borrowed A.N.A. san's school uniform for the encore!
The reason I chose this uniform is because I think spring is a season for people to go on new journeys and dance.
So, let me sing this song that I couldn't sing for a long time.
Not only the members, but also my new friends who brought me here.
Please listen to it.
On the day of departure.
[PH] The Day of Departure
Yama nami wa moe no naka ni In the white light, the yama nami
You burn.
Even to the ends of the distant sky,
you fly away.
You make my heart tremble
in the endless blue sky.
You are free, you are free, you are free, you are free, you are free, you are free, you are free, you are free, you are free.
I entrust my dream in this wide sky.
[PH] Lover's Voice Lover's Voice
Remember the voice of your friend.
When we cried for meaningless things
When we embraced happiness that passed by
Everyone has passed, but come and hold me tight
With courage in your wings, ride the wind of hope
In this wide sky, I entrust my dream
Now is the time to say goodbye
Believe in the future that has grown
Believe in the bouncing young power
In this wide, this wide, this wide sky
[PH] Now is the time for farewell
Believe in the future that has begun
Believe in the popping young power
This color, this color
[PH] Oh...
Into the sky
[PH] Thank you for everything!
[PH] Thank you!
[PH] Thank you.
I thought about it this time and realized that there are many people supporting me and cheering me on in the invisible place.
It's not all about what you can see.
I realized that people who are working hard and cheering me on in the invisible place are my treasures.
So...
I still won't graduate!
Now for Hirata's second chapter of being an idol!
My final approach to you begins!
[PH] The performance went well, didn't it?
[PH] Yes!
It was more than I imagined.
Me too!
