Mirai (未来のミライ)

Mm.

How much longer is it gonna be?

Good, well that's a relief.

We'll be waiting.

Mmhmm, yeah.

Okay drive safe.

Kun, honey, mommy's on her way home.

Yeah? Really?

She sure is.

You excited?

Super excited!

Hooo,

What a cute little puppy.

You know, babies like things nice and neat.

Hey, can the puppy clean up too?

Kay.

Wanna do it on your own?

Okay.

What a good big brother.

Yeah.

- Grandma will be right upstairs.

Mmhmm.

- I don't think I'll ever get used to these modern homes.

I guess this is what you should expect

when you let your daughter off to marry an architect.

Isn't that right Yukko?

Oh, Kun you were supposed to be cleaning up.

- Which do you think the baby likes more

the E233 or the Azusa?

- I don't know, I'm sure either will be fine.

Oh, I think Yukko wants you to play in the yard with him.

Really?

Why don't you go?

Okay.

- Grandma will clean this up, okay?

They're gonna be here any minute!

Ready?

Fetch!

Go fetch!

Cool.

What is it?

Kun.

Mommy!

Welcome to your castle, my little princess.

Hi, we're home, Kun.

What took you so long?

I was so lonely here!

Are you feeling any better?

I'm sorry I was gone for so long.

Is that the baby?

Let me see, I wanna see it.

This is your baby sister, Kun.

Sister?

Isn't she precious?

She is.

You have to be gentle with her.

She's awake.

I think she's staring at you, Kun.

Come on, her eyes can't even focus yet.

Well she sure looks like she's staring to me.

You must always be nice to her, okay?

Okay.

And you have to protect her no matter what.

Yeah.

Always.

- Oh, hey Kun, so what do you think we should name

the new baby?

I can pick?

Let me see, ah, Nozomi.

Nozomi, it's not bad.

Yeah not bad.

Anything else?

Or maybe Tsubame.

Tsubame, okay Tsubame.

Tsubame?

-Those are just the names of his bullet trains.

Of course they are.

- I really wish I could stay longer

but I'm afraid your grandma needs me to help her out

with a few things.

It's okay, we'll be fine.

Thanks again for coming.

Call me if you need anything.

Thank you so much, Mom.

Give Dad my love, okay?

- Bye Kun, Grandma's going on a bullet train now.

Bye, Grandma.

I'll see you soon, little one.

Say goodbye Granny.

Good morning, Kun.

Good morning, Mom.

Good morning, baby.

The toast, right!

Toast!

I'm okay, everybody.

Breakfast coming right up,

just one minute here.

I want more milk, Mom!

Milk!

You got it buddy, there you go.

No!

I want a banana, Mom!

Okay, banana!

One banana coming--

No!

Listen to me, Mom!

Hey.

- Okay, I'm vacuuming this room now

so you gotta pick up your toys, okay?

Mommy!

You're all clean.

Oh! Yes, Kun?

Congrats on the baby!

Yeah, thank you so much.

I bet she's adorable.

- Well, lucky for her I think she got

all her genes from her mother.

Well they say the second one

is supposed to be easier.

- Honestly it was all such a blur I don't really remember

what it was like with Kun.

- I heard that Yumi was planning on

going back to work right away.

-That's right, because another one of her colleagues

is about to have a baby, can you believe it?

- She told us you'd be taking care of the house

and looking after the kids, is that right?

-Yeah, no, it's just 'cause I decided to go freelance

so I'll be working from home from now on

which means I'll have time to take breaks

and tidy up around the house and stuff.

- Must be nice. -That's impressive.

It's nothing.

I wish my husband did that.

Stop, it's nothing.

Hm, what?

Nothing.

-You can tell me, come on, what's up?

Alright, if you insist.

You just can't help yourself, can you?

Doing your "I'm the perfect husband" act

in front of all the other moms.

What?

-You do realize they can all see right through it.

That cloth is for the table.

No!

- Look, March is just around the corner

and I'll be back at work soon, which means you're gonna have

to actually start taking care of the house

instead of just bragging to others about it.

I know.

- I can't do everything by myself

like I did when Kun was born.

I know.

- I'm your big brother, so I'm gonna teach you

a lot of different stuff okay?

First, I'll take you outside

and I'm gonna teach you the names of all the bugs.

Dragonfly!

And then I'll show you how you can see things in the clouds.

There's a scorpion! See?

And that one--

She's too little to go outside just yet.

You can take her when she's a bit bigger alright?

Fine.

The Witch and Mr. Mustache.

The witch was woken up by Mr. Mustache

so she got mad and chased him.

And Mr. Mustache ran.

He got away by jumping on a train on the Yamanote line.

Then the witch tried to follow him by jumping onto

a different train on the Keihin line

but the two trains went different directions

at Tabata station and they got separated.

Knock it off!

It's her nap time, you need let her sleep.

A bit more.

You sure?

Push it in more.

I don't want her to choke.

Hey Mom!

- If you don't, she'll suck in too much air then--

Hey Dad!

Listen to me!

- Oh wow, she's really going for it.

Right, now lift her up.

Hey Mom!

- I don't think I'm doing this right.

Stop ignoring me!

Don't be so nervous it's just gas.

- Okay, so this detergent, this ones for the whites.

Not colors.

Right just for the whites.

Wait what if it has both?

Well it's not, it's not an exact science.

Oh Kun, what happened?

Why is she crying? What did you do?

You promised that you would be nice to her.

It's not my fault, okay?

- Look, you have to be extra gentle with a baby.
