00:06.290 --> 00:09.580
<i>It walked southward.</i>

00:10.490 --> 00:15.590
<i>It gathered knowledge, 
and through stimulation,</i>

00:15.590 --> 00:18.020
<i>it could replicate that information.</i>

00:20.780 --> 00:21.870
<i>A rock...</i>

00:24.950 --> 00:26.090
<i>A wolf...</i>

00:27.760 --> 00:29.350
<i>And then, a human being.</i>

00:31.170 --> 00:35.240
<i>Because it possessed none of the 
things that make humans human,</i>

00:35.530 --> 00:40.230
<i>it soiled itself and failed to 
procure sufficient nourishment.</i>

00:41.590 --> 00:44.730
<i>And so, it died quickly.</i>

00:46.680 --> 00:51.960
<i>To this object, death is 
but a change in state.</i>

00:52.640 --> 00:59.370
<i>It had died six times so far, but it 
regenerated, as expected, each time.</i>

01:00.110 --> 01:04.200
<i>The first time, it took five whole days,</i>

01:04.200 --> 01:08.270
<i>but by the sixth time, it could 
accomplish it in roughly twelve hours.</i>

01:10.480 --> 01:13.270
<i>Pain promotes growth.</i>

01:13.760 --> 01:15.690
<i>No death is wasted.</i>

01:57.380 --> 01:58.920
<i>It died again.</i>

02:00.410 --> 02:02.380
<i>But that was not a problem.</i>

03:35.500 --> 03:38.640
Mommy, I'm so hungry, I could die!

03:38.830 --> 03:41.700
Oh, Usajiro, you poor baby!

03:41.700 --> 03:43.970
Mommy will make you something right away.

03:44.230 --> 03:46.140
There you go. Eat up.

03:46.330 --> 03:47.370
Yummy!

03:47.370 --> 03:48.390
Thank you, Mommy!

03:48.390 --> 03:50.060
You're so good at cooking!

03:50.060 --> 03:52.530
Oh, my, thank you!

03:51.240 --> 03:52.790
Congratulations, Lee.

03:53.050 --> 03:55.270
You're a full-fledged adult now, eh?

03:55.760 --> 03:57.520
Thanks, Grandma.

04:07.440 --> 04:09.530
What are you looking at, March?

04:10.650 --> 04:11.650
Ta-da!

04:11.650 --> 04:12.830
What's this?

04:13.060 --> 04:14.730
We had another baby?!

04:14.910 --> 04:15.860
That's right.

04:15.860 --> 04:17.660
Our sixth child, Kanitaro!

04:18.270 --> 04:20.610
I've been wanting another child!

04:20.610 --> 04:22.950
Now we're a family of eight!

04:22.950 --> 04:23.930
That's right.

04:24.280 --> 04:27.350
Here, darling! Eat this feast 
I made to thank you!

04:27.530 --> 04:29.350
Wow, this looks delicious!

04:30.350 --> 04:33.270
You always make the best food, honey.

04:33.800 --> 04:36.370
Aren't you glad you married me?

04:36.810 --> 04:38.480
Time to eat, March.

04:38.790 --> 04:40.440
Daddy! Mommy!

04:40.660 --> 04:42.880
Look! Kanitaro!

04:43.270 --> 04:45.400
She made a new one, eh? Very nice.

04:45.400 --> 04:47.820
Thank you for looking after her
all the time, Parona-chan.

04:48.270 --> 04:49.430
Not at all.

04:49.430 --> 04:52.340
Being around March comforts me.

04:57.160 --> 05:02.410
Hey, Mommy, when do I get to be a grown-up?

05:02.710 --> 05:04.540
That question again?

05:04.540 --> 05:07.720
Once you stop wetting the bed, 
then sleep 3,000 times more.

05:07.720 --> 05:09.060
That's what I always tell you.

05:09.060 --> 05:10.800
I can't wait that long!

05:10.800 --> 05:13.930
I wanna grow up so I can be a mommy!

05:13.930 --> 05:17.700
Did you know? Lee-chan next 
door isn't a child anymore!

05:17.700 --> 05:19.880
They took the ink off her face!

05:19.880 --> 05:23.980
The only children left in this village 
are me, Lisa, and little Lalah!

05:23.980 --> 05:25.690
It's so humiliating!

05:25.930 --> 05:27.220
There, there, Lisa.

05:27.220 --> 05:29.920
Let me feed you some of my milk.

05:29.920 --> 05:31.400
Stop that.

05:31.400 --> 05:33.710
Let me tell you a secret, March.

05:34.570 --> 05:38.830
Now, listen. You can't become 
a grown-up if you don't behave.

05:38.830 --> 05:40.250
Hush up to grow up!

05:40.500 --> 05:43.790
What?! That's so silly!

05:46.550 --> 05:50.550
<b>A Rambunctious Girl</b>

06:13.170 --> 06:16.570
That bow is too strong and heavy for you.

06:16.570 --> 06:19.130
Don't worry. You'll get 
better at it eventually.

06:19.130 --> 06:20.980
We'll help you out.

06:20.980 --> 06:22.470
Let's hang in there and keep practicing.

06:24.640 --> 06:25.870
Thanks.

06:26.340 --> 06:27.840
Hey, where's Daddy?

06:27.840 --> 06:28.790
Where's Daddy?

06:28.970 --> 06:31.380
Daddy's busy with work.

06:31.380 --> 06:32.820
Aw, but...

06:32.820 --> 06:34.360
Now, don't be selfish!

06:39.880 --> 06:41.860
What's that sound?

06:41.860 --> 06:43.400
I don't know.

06:43.400 --> 06:44.420
March!

06:47.780 --> 06:49.480
Sissy!

06:51.480 --> 06:52.920
Where are we going?

06:53.560 --> 06:55.440
I found a nice spot.

06:55.440 --> 06:57.360
Let's go play there today.

06:57.360 --> 06:59.200
What do you think you're doing?

07:09.390 --> 07:11.820
That girl is from the village, is she not?

07:11.820 --> 07:14.500
Did you not hear the order to assemble?

07:18.190 --> 07:20.510
Rejoice, everyone.

07:20.860 --> 07:24.280
Your village was fortunate enough 
to be chosen this year.

07:24.590 --> 07:28.390
The ritual of gratitude to Oniguma-sama,
the god who brings peace

07:28.390 --> 07:30.790
and prosperity to the Ninannah region,

07:30.790 --> 07:33.040
will be held in this village.

07:33.360 --> 07:36.540
In accordance with tradition, 
we, the Yanome people,

07:36.920 --> 07:41.720
will choose an untarnished girl 
to offer to Oniguma-sama.

07:42.610 --> 07:43.920
Let's see...

08:12.680 --> 08:14.430
This is the one.

08:15.750 --> 08:17.110
Congratulations, March!

08:17.110 --> 08:17.790
Congratulations!

08:17.790 --> 08:18.830
Congratulations!

08:18.830 --> 08:20.240
Thank you.

08:20.240 --> 08:21.940
Thank you.

08:22.500 --> 08:25.340
Why are they congratulating 
me? What happened?

08:26.000 --> 08:29.580
You were chosen for a great honor.

08:30.300 --> 08:31.590
Honor?

08:37.610 --> 08:39.110
We're so sorry, March!

08:40.260 --> 08:42.280
What's wrong, Mommy?

08:42.280 --> 08:44.150
You are going to die.

08:45.050 --> 08:46.050
March-san.

08:47.750 --> 08:51.320
You are to be sacrificed to Oniguma-sama.

08:51.320 --> 08:52.810
For all of our sakes.

08:53.540 --> 08:55.320
Sacrificed?

08:55.560 --> 08:58.240
My name is Hayase.

08:58.640 --> 09:03.910
I have been ordered to look after
you until the ritual is complete.

09:03.910 --> 09:05.320
Move back, please.

09:05.320 --> 09:07.410
No men may come near her.

09:08.010 --> 09:10.630
We must not allow her to be tarnished.

09:11.740 --> 09:13.500
Here is the schedule.

09:14.250 --> 09:18.320
On the day before we leave, 
the village will hold a banquet.

09:18.800 --> 09:22.670
The family is asked to say
their goodbyes at this time.

09:23.250 --> 09:25.910
We will then spend three days 
climbing the mountain.

09:26.410 --> 09:31.600
You two may rest assured 
that we will travel safely.

09:32.660 --> 09:36.250
March-san will sleep on the 
altar atop the mountain.

09:36.660 --> 09:40.320
We will return down the mountain 
before Oniguma-sama arrives.

09:40.590 --> 09:44.170
In one year, we will retrieve 
anything that remains on the altar

09:44.170 --> 09:46.040
and bring it home to the parents.

09:46.260 --> 09:48.610
I don't wanna die, though!

09:50.530 --> 09:53.880
If I die, I can't become a grown-up, right?

09:54.560 --> 09:55.870
That would be the case.

09:55.870 --> 09:58.080
So I don't want to die!

09:58.630 --> 10:00.180
That is unfortunate.

10:02.560 --> 10:05.310
Why do you get to decide what happens to me?!

10:05.310 --> 10:06.940
That is the tradition.

10:06.940 --> 10:09.200
What?! That doesn't make sense!

10:09.200 --> 10:10.480
No! No! No!

10:10.480 --> 10:11.860
I don't want to die!

10:11.860 --> 10:14.620
Why do <i>I</i> have to die?!

10:14.620 --> 10:17.620
Why don't I get to become a grown-up?!

10:17.620 --> 10:19.620
Tell me! Why?! Why?! Why?!

10:18.940 --> 10:20.340
March!

10:26.040 --> 10:27.630
Behave.

10:38.320 --> 10:39.880
March-chan, eat this.

10:39.880 --> 10:41.120
Eat this, too.

10:44.210 --> 10:45.390
Lalah.

10:45.680 --> 10:47.890
I made this, March.

10:48.170 --> 10:50.330
Wear it on your last day.

10:50.330 --> 10:51.400
Thanks.

10:51.950 --> 10:54.340
I'll do my best.

11:01.350 --> 11:05.560
Is your job to watch me go to the bathroom?

11:05.560 --> 11:10.800
I am watching over you until the final day 
to ensure you remain in pristine condition.

11:11.160 --> 11:13.300
You're making sure I don't run away.

11:13.580 --> 11:16.740
Allow me to warn you: if you run away,

11:16.740 --> 11:18.790
Lalah will die in your place.

11:19.330 --> 11:20.920
And if Lalah runs away?

11:21.460 --> 11:23.890
We will choose the one who can't run away.

11:25.790 --> 11:28.130
Oh, dear. What's wrong?

11:32.650 --> 11:35.140
There, there.

11:36.310 --> 11:39.090
There, there.

12:25.400 --> 12:27.950
You have been very strong.

12:29.640 --> 12:31.830
You are behaving well.

12:31.830 --> 12:32.960
I'm impressed.

12:34.140 --> 12:39.480
There is a legend that says freedom 
awaits in the world after death.

12:39.790 --> 12:42.520
You can do anything and become anything.

12:42.870 --> 12:46.980
There, you can become the grown-up
that you could not become here.

13:04.640 --> 13:05.380
An arrow...

13:07.260 --> 13:08.430
She got away!

13:08.790 --> 13:09.900
Hold it!

13:13.480 --> 13:14.710
Hayase-sama!

13:15.530 --> 13:16.500
After March!

13:16.500 --> 13:17.640
Don't lose her!

13:37.060 --> 13:38.130
She disappeared?

13:38.130 --> 13:39.280
Search over there!

13:39.670 --> 13:40.600
She's not here!

13:40.600 --> 13:41.960
Search harder!

13:56.870 --> 13:58.840
<i>I'm sorry, Daddy.</i>

13:59.790 --> 14:02.550
<i>I couldn't behave.</i>

14:34.440 --> 14:36.000
There she is! It's March!

14:39.950 --> 14:41.320
What is that?!

14:41.320 --> 14:42.740
W-Wait for me!

14:48.480 --> 14:49.270
What?

14:53.640 --> 14:55.810
What is this?

15:14.200 --> 15:16.490
U-Um...

15:24.100 --> 15:25.620
Where are you going?

15:30.940 --> 15:33.210
Take me with you!

15:47.680 --> 15:48.870
I see.

15:49.160 --> 15:52.210
You were going to fake March-san's death.

15:53.080 --> 15:57.500
I see what you were trying to do, 
but it was like a child playing pretend.

15:58.650 --> 16:04.010
Do not misunderstand.
I will not be the one to punish you.

16:04.010 --> 16:06.550
It will be your own people of Ninannah.

16:10.290 --> 16:11.500
Where's March?

16:11.500 --> 16:13.260
Well...

16:13.260 --> 16:14.690
You let her get away?

16:14.690 --> 16:17.050
Let's go back to the village 
and get another girl.

16:17.050 --> 16:19.950
We will find her before 
we humiliate ourselves!

16:19.950 --> 16:21.370
Get back to searching at once!

16:21.560 --> 16:23.020
No! Wait!

16:23.020 --> 16:24.430
There's a monster out there!

16:25.000 --> 16:26.260
A monster?

16:29.470 --> 16:31.290
What are you?

16:31.470 --> 16:33.970
You looked like an empty husk at first.

16:33.970 --> 16:37.780
Then you went all squiggly, 
and you came back to life.

16:37.970 --> 16:43.250
One time, Sissy stepped on a bug and it 
came back to life, and it scared me.

16:43.250 --> 16:48.830
Isn't that called... uh... in... imm...

16:48.830 --> 16:50.830
Immortal, right?

16:50.830 --> 16:52.790
Sissy taught me.

16:55.810 --> 16:58.280
By the way, where did you come from?

16:58.280 --> 17:01.800
Not Ninannah, right? And you don't 
look like you're from Yanome...

17:04.440 --> 17:06.070
What's your name?

17:06.070 --> 17:08.310
Mine's March!

17:10.850 --> 17:13.020
Hey! Say something!

17:13.020 --> 17:14.770
Don't you know how to talk?!

17:26.340 --> 17:28.110
That fruit looks sweet.

17:28.520 --> 17:31.870
Yeah, I'm getting hungry, too.

17:32.090 --> 17:33.360
I'll get some for you!

17:33.360 --> 17:36.010
Leave this to me! I'm a good climber!

17:37.340 --> 17:38.120
Here!

17:46.460 --> 17:47.680
You've gotta be kidding...

17:48.140 --> 17:49.680
You poor thing.

17:49.680 --> 17:52.330
Your parents must not have 
taught you manners.

17:57.430 --> 17:58.390
Here.

17:58.390 --> 18:01.430
You eat with your hands, like this.

18:05.940 --> 18:08.420
You're so awful!

18:08.610 --> 18:10.170
For crying out loud...

18:11.410 --> 18:14.170
You're mean! That was mine!

18:14.330 --> 18:15.920
Sheesh...

18:17.770 --> 18:19.660
No! These are mine!

19:22.020 --> 19:24.460
Were you that hungry?

19:27.170 --> 19:30.560
Listen. When someone you don't 
know does something nice for you,

19:30.560 --> 19:33.250
you have to say "thank you," okay?

19:33.250 --> 19:35.780
Can you say that? Say "thank you."

19:40.940 --> 19:45.750
"Thank you."

19:46.500 --> 19:49.320
Thank you.

19:49.570 --> 19:52.390
Thank you.

19:57.550 --> 19:58.430
Hey!

19:58.430 --> 20:00.430
Don't just walk away!

20:15.420 --> 20:16.600
You're going to sleep?

20:17.440 --> 20:18.540
Hey.

20:35.930 --> 20:37.670
Mommy! Daddy!

20:37.670 --> 20:39.440
I'm home!

20:40.110 --> 20:41.340
March!

20:44.660 --> 20:45.510
Huh?

20:46.040 --> 20:47.380
Where's Lisa?

21:13.840 --> 21:16.900
It's your fault, March.

21:17.720 --> 21:18.860
Sissy...

21:20.110 --> 21:24.150
They were sacrificed because you ran away.

22:06.730 --> 22:09.750
Wh-What's the matter? 
Why are you following me?

22:55.320 --> 22:56.420
Sheesh...

22:56.420 --> 22:59.750
I'm not your mommy, you know!
