00:00I'm going to a completely different place.
00:05What is this?
00:06This is my home.
00:07You're dangerous.
00:08Can I go in?
00:09Yes, you can.
00:10I'm going in.
00:11Wow, that's amazing.
00:13It's a sunset.
00:15You can't go home until you find interesting information on the island?
00:19You can't go home until you find interesting information on the island?
00:24I'm sorry it's a joke.
00:28Last week, we went to Awashima in Mitoyoshi, Kagawa Prefecture.
00:34This is the first island to have a private school,
00:37and it's an island that has a lot of sailors.
00:40Last time, we went to a unique island convenience store
00:44and heard a lot about the island.
00:49There's an Awashima Shrine here.
00:52There are people who use bows.
00:54Do you know that?
00:56This week, we'll start from the Awashima Shrine.
01:07Huh? I hear someone's voice.
01:11Oh, there he is.
01:15Hello.
01:17Um...
01:19Excuse me.
01:21Were you shooting a bow?
01:24I'm done.
01:25You're done?
01:26Are you Mr. Nakanishi?
01:27Yes.
01:28I heard from the person at Takeuchi Shoten earlier.
01:34Can I come down?
01:36Sure.
01:37Come down this way.
01:45Oh, it's here.
01:47Wow.
01:50It's a shrine.
01:54Hello.
01:56Are you his wife?
01:57No, no.
01:58We're practicing together.
02:00Oh, you're practicing together.
02:03Excuse me.
02:08Oh, I'm sorry.
02:10How long have you been doing this?
02:12I've been doing this since I was a kid.
02:15Here?
02:16No, at home.
02:17At home?
02:18Do you have a place like that at home?
02:20No, it's a small place.
02:22We hang out there.
02:23Do people on the island play bowing?
02:28People who like it.
02:29People who are interested in it have been doing it for a long time.
02:34But not many people do it now.
02:40When I was in junior high school, there were a lot of people.
02:47When did you start playing bowing here?
02:50This place?
02:51Is this your father's?
02:52No, it's an old place.
02:54It used to be here.
02:55There used to be a festival called Momotematsuri.
02:58A festival?
02:59On this island.
03:00At this shrine.
03:02When was that?
03:04On March 7th.
03:06There was a festival.
03:08We practiced for that.
03:11Oh, a photo.
03:13What kind of photo is this?
03:15A photo of Momotematsuri.
03:17It's a bow.
03:18A bow?
03:19It's a bow.
03:20What is it made of?
03:22Kamishimo?
03:23Kamishimo?
03:24Yes.
03:25When people come to the shrine,
03:27they bow in order.
03:32So you can't miss it?
03:34You have to hit it.
03:35You have to hit it?
03:36Yes.
03:37I see.
03:38There's a censer.
03:40A censer.
03:41There's a censer of Kinomaru in the back.
03:44I pray to Kinomaru.
03:46I want to purify the censer
03:48if Minagawa changes his mind.
03:50But now that I think about it,
03:52it's quite a distance.
03:53It's 28 meters.
03:54It's 28 meters.
03:55Do you have to hit it?
03:57The distance is the same as the distance
04:00between the Dojo and the Kudo Dojo in Japan.
04:03It's the same distance.
04:05It's the same distance.
04:07It's the same distance as the distance
04:09between the Dojo and the Kudo Dojo in Japan.
04:11It's the same distance.
04:13How was it today?
04:15Nakanishi-san.
04:16Yes.
04:17I have a bow for beginners.
04:19Can you show it to me?
04:21What?
04:22It's long.
04:25This is a bow for beginners.
04:29It's the same length as a bow.
04:32It's the same length as a bow?
04:34It's this long?
04:36Yes.
04:37What?
04:38It's 9 meters long.
04:40Wow, it's long.
04:42That's right.
04:43This is where you hold it.
04:45This is where you hold the leather.
04:47This is where you hold the leather.
04:49The leather is a little rough.
04:52It's rough.
04:53You hold it like this.
04:55You hold it like this.
04:56You hold it like this.
04:58Is this the head?
04:59Is this the head?
05:00Is this the head?
05:01The arrow is here.
05:03You can hook it to the arrow.
05:06You can hook it to the arrow.
05:07If you wear gloves like this,
05:09Put your thumbs in here.
05:11Put your thumbs in here.
05:12Hold it down with two fingers.
05:14Hold it down with two fingers.
05:27It's cool.
05:28It's cool.
05:29It just happened.
05:33I have a brain you me or don't know at all. He's got it. Oh, come on
05:39Korean
05:41Listen, what do I call it? It's got a little squashy. You don't know. She's got it. Oh, she's there
05:46Oh, come on. Oh
05:49What do you come to see?
05:52I'm not it's you
05:54What am I? Oh my god. You're here. I get it. What's that?
05:56I
06:26You have to push and spread your head like this.
06:29And then you put it in the water.
06:35When you hit the target, you feel like you're flying again.
06:39I thought I hit it just now.
06:41It's been a while since I've hit it.
06:42You flew straight.
06:43When I'm pulling this, I'm a little nervous.
06:47I feel like I'm getting motivated.
06:50It's a sport, but...
06:53What do you call it?
06:55I think it's a good hobby because of this tension and harmony.
07:01It's fun.
07:02I moved from Takamatsu to this island.
07:08I was interested in this bow and wanted to draw it.
07:12I'm practicing now.
07:15For example, if you come here and watch this program and want to draw a bow,
07:23You can experience it when you come here around noon.
07:29There are quite a few people who come here and draw a bow.
07:37If you come here and draw a bow, you can experience it.
07:43Is it here?
07:44It's in Chiba, Kanagawa, Hyogo.
07:48It's in Tokyo.
07:51It's from all over the place.
07:54There are quite a few people.
07:56There are quite a few people.
07:58If you come here, you can experience it.
08:00I really want to do this.
08:03If you come here, you can experience it.
08:07We're not that close yet.
08:10You can experience it here.
08:13You should know that you feel good when you draw a bow.
08:20If you go to the dojo, you can learn how to draw a bow.
08:26It's fun to do it yourself.
08:29I think it's going to be a lot of fun.
08:37The owner of the dojo told me that people from the island come here in the evening.
08:48So I'm going to go there.
08:50The owner of the dojo told me that people from the island come here in the evening.
08:56Someone is walking towards me.
09:01Who is it?
09:06Is he going inside?
09:11Hello.
09:13Hello.
09:15Nice to meet you.
09:17We're filming around Awashima.
09:20What were you doing just now?
09:22I was just sitting here.
09:25I see.
09:26I heard that people from the island come here in the evening.
09:31Is it here?
09:32Yes.
09:34Can I sit here?
09:36Yes.
09:37He's so kind.
09:39He doesn't want me to get my butt hurt.
09:43Do you come here around this time?
09:45What time is it now?
09:46It's past 4 p.m.
09:47It's past 4 p.m. and it's 4.48 p.m.
09:51It's 5 p.m. now.
09:52I have to go back to Kutora.
09:53Are you guys late today?
09:56Hello.
09:58Hello.
10:00I saw a dog.
10:02That dog is cute.
10:05The dog is cute.
10:06I heard that people from the island come here in the evening.
10:09Didn't you come here by car?
10:11I came here by car.
10:12By car?
10:13Can you go home by car?
10:15I can take a walk.
10:17What do you eat?
10:18Tomatoes.
10:19Tomatoes?
10:21How does it taste?
10:22It's good.
10:23It's good?
10:24It's good.
10:25Is it good?
10:26It's good.
10:27Is that so?
10:29Can I sit next to you?
10:30Yes.
10:34Are you guys going to...
10:36We always come here.
10:38But it's better to walk.
10:40I see.
10:41How do you get together here?
10:45Are there many men and women?
10:47There are only people around here.
10:50I see.
10:51Have you been doing this for a long time?
10:53Yes.
10:54It's been a few years.
10:56So you do this every day.
10:58Yes.
10:59I do this every day.
11:00I sit here and go home when the sun goes down.
11:04I see.
11:06What do you talk about here?
11:08We talk about the world.
11:10You guys are neighbors.
11:12You guys get along well.
11:14If we didn't get along, we wouldn't be living here.
11:17There are a lot of people from other places.
11:19I see.
11:20So we get along well.
11:23I see.
11:24I have a friend from Saga.
11:27He's from Yamagata.
11:29Oh, he's from all over Japan.
11:31Yes.
11:32So you guys talk here.
11:36Mr. Funanori and you have been living together for a long time.
11:43So you try not to fight.
11:46You try to accept people.
11:48Yes, I try to accept people.
11:54And your wife.
11:56Your wife is married.
11:58On the other hand, she's been alone for a long time.
12:04She might have kids.
12:06So you have to protect your family.
12:11I think that's why you guys are able to communicate.
12:15I think that's why you guys are able to connect with other people.
12:20Oh, I have a friend here.
12:25Hello.
12:26I didn't think many people would come today.
12:29Really?
12:30Yes.
12:32So people come here like this.
12:35About four or five people.
12:36Oh, four or five people.
12:37I thought it was nice to be here.
12:41There are 1,300 people here.
12:43This is Mr. Funanori.
12:44Oh, I see.
12:49It's cheap to come here.
12:54Do you always talk like this?
12:57I don't talk much.
12:58Do you spend time together?
13:02Yes, we talk a lot.
13:04Do you want to see my house?

13:36A high school?
13:37Yes, a high school.
13:38Oh, here?
13:39Yes.
13:40It's a building from the Taisho era.
13:42So no one remembers this place.
13:48It was demolished about 20 years ago.
13:50It's a high school in Awashima.
13:52There are three classrooms.
13:54I don't know if you've seen it.
13:55This is the family room.
13:57Oh, this is the family room of this building.
14:00It's left as it was.
14:02Yes, it's cool.
14:05It's made of wood.
14:06It's about two minutes from here.
14:08About one minute.
14:09About one minute.
14:10Is it close?
14:11It's over there.
14:12It's over there.
14:14I bought it at 26.
14:16I'd like to see the oil painting.
14:18I'd like to see the oil painting.
14:21This is my garden.
14:23Is this your garden?
14:24This is my garden.
14:25Wow, it's amazing.
14:27It's a sunset.
14:28This is from Awashima.
14:30Awashima.

14:33Thank you for coming.
14:37That's right.
14:38Wow.

14:45What is this painting?
14:48This is a view from the other village.
14:54Is this Awashima?
14:56What island are you looking at?
14:58This is Suzanoko.
15:00It's a place to go to Shuden.
15:02Did you draw while looking at the scenery?
15:05No, I drew a sketch.
15:07You drew a sketch.
15:08I often have a sketchbook.
15:09I drew a sketch and came back.
15:11Then I put it in this.
15:13That's amazing.
15:14It's not amazing.
15:15It's amazing.
15:16What is this on the top?
15:19This is the mountain of Awashima.
15:22This is the mountain of Awashima.

15:27The building is still there.
15:30This is in my head.
15:32That's amazing.
15:33You drew a sketch because it was in your head.
15:38I just used colors.
15:40I see.
15:41This is a sunset.
15:43Do you remember and draw here?
15:45The colors?
15:46No, I draw it on the spot.
15:49Do you like this atmosphere?
15:52What is this picture?
15:55This is my grandchild.
15:57Is your father down there?
15:59This is me.
16:00My wife is from Kitakyushu.
16:02I met her on Shiretoko Peninsula in Hokkaido.
16:04I traveled a lot with my backpack.
16:06I'm a member of the Yubin Bureau, but I'm a salesman.
16:09I travel for about three months a year.
16:12I traveled for 18 days with my backpack in Hokkaido.
16:18I stopped by the Yubin Bureau on Shiretoko Peninsula.
16:21There was a beautiful woman.
16:23I asked her where she was from.
16:25She said she was from Kitakyushu.
16:28That's amazing.
16:30You met your wife from Kitakyushu in Hokkaido.
16:35We got married a year later.
16:37270 people came to our wedding.
16:40That's amazing.
16:41We had three weddings.
16:43You have lived in Awashima for a long time.
16:47What do you like about Awashima?
16:49I like the nature.
16:50You like the nature.
16:51Awashima doesn't look like a human being.
16:55But it's a familiar place.
16:59It's like a family to me.
17:01I see.
17:03I'm a member of the Yubin Bureau.
17:06I know every house and every place.
17:11You know the people of Awashima as if they were your relatives.
17:17That's amazing.
17:19The oil painting was amazing.
17:22It's been a long time.
17:24There was a man named Kinjo Watanabe.
17:27He was the headmaster of a kindergarten.
17:30The headmaster lived alone with his wife.
17:33He was so grateful that he invited his wife to his house.
17:38This is 20 yen.
17:41You got addicted to it.
17:43That's amazing.
17:45Excuse me.
17:47Thank you very much.
17:49This is also...
17:51This is also a gift from a student.
17:56One of my students gave me this as a gift.
18:00Is this all?
18:01Yes.
18:03It's amazing.
18:05It's a bamboo plant and a crane.
18:08That's a crane, too.
18:10Is that a crane?
18:12Yes, it's a crane.
18:14That's Asagao.
18:15I don't think there were 105 people in this room.
18:18This is a music room.
18:22There's a piano here.
18:24This is a Japanese-style room.
18:26This is a Japanese-style room.
18:27This is a Japanese-style room.
18:31Did you graduate from this junior high school?
18:35This one?
18:36Yes.
18:37You graduated from this school, right?
18:39Yes, I graduated from this junior high school.
18:42I graduated from this junior high school.
18:45Do you remember when you came to this place?
18:49I remember every day.
18:53It's close to your house, isn't it?
18:55Yes.
18:56My teacher used to live here.
18:58My mother-in-law used to cook and drink here.
19:02Your mother-in-law?
19:04Yes.
19:05My wife wasn't good at cooking.
19:09My teacher had eight students.
19:11What is this place?
19:12This is the staff room.
19:13This is the staff room?
19:14Yes.
19:15My teacher used to say,
19:16Come here, Asagao.
19:18I used to drink with my brother-in-law.
19:21I still drink with my brother-in-law.
19:24As a graduate student, I'm glad that this school is still here.
19:29I'm glad.
19:30There was a rumor that this school was going to be demolished.
19:33This school has a high status.
19:35This school is quiet and beautiful.
19:37It's really nice.
19:39It's quiet and peaceful.
19:41At that time, there were 150 students in this school.
19:48That means the school was very busy.
19:51This school was built in 1925.
19:55This island was a very poor island.
19:59There were only 300 students.
20:01The students were paid twice as much as the others.
20:05Many of them went to Japan.
20:08There are many students in Malaysia, India, and China.
20:12There were a lot of students.
20:15There were only 9 schools in the country.
20:19There are only three schools now.
20:22The school building is still here.
20:26It's a two-story building.
20:28It wasn't built yet.
20:32Let's fix the roof.
20:34It takes a lot of time to fix the roof.
20:37It takes a lot of time.
20:39This is the school's main building.
20:42This is the school's main building.
20:44This is the school's main building.
20:47Are we here?
20:49Do you see a hut over there?
20:51Was that a dormitory?
20:53That was the dormitory.
20:55That was the main building.
20:57That's the main building.
20:59That's the main building.
21:01What are the two boulders?
21:03What are the two boulders?
21:05It's been over 20 years since it was built.
21:08It's been over 20 years since it was built.
21:12It was a Western building.
21:14After destroying it, they made this.
21:16This represents the waves of Awashima.
21:20These waves?
21:21Yes, the waves.
21:22There are rocks here.
21:24I see.
21:25So the rocks are not just spinning around,
21:27but they're also representing the waves?
21:29Yes, they're representing the waves.
21:31I see.
21:32That's why it's made like this.
21:35Yes.
21:38I see.
21:39Is this your first time in Awashima?
21:40Yes, it is.
21:44I love this scenery.
21:47It reminds me of the picture we saw earlier.
21:51The sunset.
21:54I like that kind of scenery.
21:56It's like an oil painting.
21:59It's like an idea.
22:02I see.
22:05This island is famous for its buoy.
22:08Buoy?
22:09For example, there are a lot of buoys.
22:12What do you do with them?
22:14Well...
22:17Do you see that raft?
22:19Yes, I do.
22:20There's a buoy to float the raft.
22:23There are 12 or 13 people on the raft.
22:27So everyone has dozens of buoys.
22:3030 or 50.
22:32Do you have any buoys left?
22:34Yes, I quit my job.
22:36So I'm just playing around.
