- Se: In Okinawa it's sugarcane, in Hokkaido it's sugar beets. Even though they're both sources of sugar.
- Sh: The difference in regions shows in crops, too. Especially since you two are from completely different areas.
- N: You're right, the food in Okinawa and Hokkaido is completely different too.
- Sh: I'd love if you two told me more about the agriculture in your homelands!
- Se: Utano, calm down, you're way too excited.
- Sh: Please, tell me!
- Se: Personal space! Your face is way too close...
- Sh: Sorry. When it comes to farming, I get a little too hot-headed.
- Se: It's nothing to apologise for, don't worry.
- Se: I don't really have much of an interest in farming normally.
- Se: So I don't know much other than what we learned at school and what I saw our neighbours grow.
- Sh: That's enough! Please, tell me!
- Se: Ah, you're way too close again! Calm down! Okay, let's see...
- Se: In my hometown people grew potatoes and toukibi...[1]
- N: Satoukibi, as in sugarcane? There are sugarcane fields even in Hokkaido!?
- Se: Not satoukibi, toukibi. Oh, right. I think you people call it maize.
- Sh: Even though it's the same plant, it's called differently in different areas. This would make for an interesting research subject too.
- Se: You're brimming with curiosity, Utano.
- Sh: Anything else? What else can you grow in Hokkaido!?
- Se: Stuff like melons, onions and carrots.
- N: You can't grow any of that in Okinawa.
- Sh: What else? What else!?
- Se: That's pretty much everything that comes to mind... But personally, I like lavender fields more.
- Sh: You can't eat that!
- Se: Can't you move away from the topic of food!?

- Notes:
- 1 - Toukibi is one of the numerous words for maize, used in Hokkaido. The Okinawans call it toumorokoshi.
