- 田 Week 25: "Little House on the Praire" Episode 145
- It's not enough to build the "jouchi goya," but
- it's an inspiring gesture.
- No matter how long it takes, let's build that "jouchi goya,"
- I'll...
- ...sell it.
- I'll sell this house.
- If I do that, we'll have enough to find a cheaper
- piece of land to build the "jouchi goya," won't we?
- What are you saying?
- I finally realized...
- That my dad and mom were trying to leave me...
- ...with a place where I could perform "rakugo."
- Not just me...
- But brother Sogen, Soso, Shiiso, Wakasa and...
- Even Kososo, who they never even met.
- That's why...
- Can you really sell...
- ...this house that's so full of memories?
- I can't!
- I can't, but I have to do it.
- Because it's what the master... my dad wanted.
- As a final...
- ...a final tribute, shall we hold a "rakugo" performance here?
- A "rakugo" performance.
- Yes...
- I want to perform "rakugo" here...
- In this house that's filled with so many memories of
- our master, with our master watching over us...
- Autumn
- Sonken!
- Excuse me...
- Ryubi!
- Good morning.
- We came to hear the "rakugo" performance
- to say goodbye to Sojaku's residence.
- How did you know about it?
- It's the talk of the town.
- You're all as reckless as ever, aren't you?
- Selling this house so you can build a "jouchi goya."
- Good morning.
- It's Master Sontoku and Master Ryuho together in one place!
- This is awesome!
- Don't we have any more cushions?
- I got all of Kikue's cushions, but that's all I could come up with.
- Master Kangoro is here, also?
- What's going on?
- There are more people than they expected,
- so everyone won't fit in the living room.
- How did this happen?
- It just shows how much people adored Master Sojaku.
- Doesn't this remind you of when we used to perform
- "rakugo" on the street corners?
- That's right... Right under the blue skies.
- Thank you all for coming today.
- I'm Sojaku's grandson apprentice, Kososo.
- I can never forget the first time I met Master Sojaku...
- It was in...
- I can't forget it.
- It was...
- I forgot already, but it was a dramatic encounter.
- The "rakugo" performance was out in the wide open space...
- I never expected it to feel so good.
- The "chawan" really was something else, for sure.
- What kind of "Chakin-san" is that anyway?
- "Leave it alone."
- "It's just rubbish. That's why all the complaints."
- "What does it say here? I love you. I love you..."
- I'm Sogen... Please... listen to my story..
- "A 'taikomochi' (professional jester) is often referred
- "to a mail geisha... It's a very difficult
- "profession... There were two bungling 'taikomochi'
- "in Minami, Osaka Named Ippachi and Shigehachi...
- "They lost their job, but by relying on their connections
- "they found work in Kyoto's Gion-machi...
- "A merchant and his group were playing in Gion-machi
- "one day, and they decided to go on a picnic...
- "He took the mistress of the teahouse, the maids,
- "along with Ippachi and Shigehachi...
- "They crossed the Kamogawa River...
- "And kept traveling west... When they reached the
- "open fields, and being the beginning of spring,
- "there were skylarks in the sky, chirping away...
- "Down below lotus flowers and dandelions were in bloom...
- "A veil of heat shimmered in the air and the distant
- "mountain looked like ft was wrapped in a haze of heat..."
- "The fresh green wheat grew tall, colored cheerfully
- "with rapeseed flowers... The group noisily walked
- "on and on... What a merry trip it was."
- Hey, Soso...
- Can I perform after this?
- It looks like it feels so good.
- Can I perform next?
- Of course.
- How long is this going on anyway?
- It seems like Master Sojaku doesn't want it to end.
- I'm sure he hates to part with this house, also.
- You did it, didn't you?
- It's a "jouchi goya" when anyone can come whenever
- they want, and where the comic storytellers can
- compete with each other to see who's best.
- You didn't have to rely on me, and you did it.
- This is what I was waiting for.
- "The bamboo bent over until it was almost
- "double, and whipped him upward like a spring...
- "He lands, and says, 'Here I am, Master.'
- "Wow! You made it up! So where's the money?"
- "Oops! I forgot it down there."
- The "rakugo" performance that day kept going and going...
- There's one more chapter left...
