05:56Zebra pens,
05:57Yumi pens,
05:59and Pentel pens.
06:01They're very good.

06:11is really incredible.
06:13In Kyoto,
06:14I want to go to this traditional,

06:18They sell a stamp.
06:21Go to the pen.
06:23Oh.
06:42And then,
06:43the one that I found,
06:45I wanted to go
06:46because they said that
06:47they have the traditional materials.

07:30Yes.
07:31I bought it.
07:32Oh, you bought it.
07:33Yes.
07:35It's everything.
07:36This is how...
07:37This is a dream come true about Japan.
07:39It was your dream.
07:40It's a perfect day for me.
07:42How do you feel right now?
07:44Yes.
07:45Super excited.
07:48Oh.
07:49Bakugan.
07:50I'm sorry.
07:52I'm sorry.
07:54Excuse me.
07:57Excuse me.
07:58Very important.
07:59Too much.
08:02Everything is so pretty here.

08:10Very skinny.
08:17This is very good.
08:18These are very nice.
08:20Look at this color.
08:22And this color.
08:23Yes.
08:24Okay, this is good.

08:45Yes.
08:47Ah.
08:48So, Sarasa Zebra.
08:50It's in the UK.
08:52It started coming in.
08:54People are really interested in it.
08:56But I think we only have like maybe five colors.
08:59Not a lot of colors.
09:00Here, there's a lot more colors.
09:02I feel like because I've been buying pens in so many places for so long,
09:07so every time I go to a new place, I'm looking for the kind of plant that I haven't seen before.
09:15It's good.
09:17Thank you very much.
09:18Otonagai!
09:19There are three pens.
09:20Three pens.
09:21Oh, but you've already held it down.
09:22Oh.
09:23I've seen a lot of things, but I've only seen these six.
09:28Let's go return the ladder!
09:33Let's look it up online.
09:34So, we're going to another stationery shop.
09:37What a surprise.
09:38This one is cool, and it's just around the corner.
09:41Oh.
09:44Is it here?
09:45No.
09:47Yes.
09:49I think it's...
09:50No.
09:52Oh, I'm lost.
09:55What is it?
09:56It should be here.
10:01What is this place?
10:04What kind of shop is this?
10:07Hello.
10:09What is it?
10:13Oh, thank you.
10:15I'm sorry.
10:18Oh.
10:19What is it?
10:20It's amazing.
10:21What is it?
10:22Glass.
10:23Glass?
10:24What kind of stationery is this?
10:25Someone that they sell something called glass pens.
10:29Glass pens.
10:31This is amazing.
10:33We make high-quality glass pens.
10:34High-quality glass pens?
10:35Yes, we make them.
10:37High-quality glass pens.
10:38There are various facilities, but they are all made in Japan.
10:42Oh.
10:43A glass pen craftsman made this.
10:47I wonder how many people use this.
10:51It's very beautiful.
10:54There is only one shop in Japan.
10:59Do you think I can try them?
11:01I want to try them, is that okay?
11:03Yes, please.
11:04Please write in order.
11:06Oh.
11:09Yes.
11:11Surprisingly long.
11:12This is really nice.
11:14Oh.
11:15It's beautiful.
11:17It's beautiful.
11:18I like them.
11:19They are very cute.
11:20This is ink.
11:21Oh.
11:23Oh.
11:24Oh.
11:25That's cool.
11:26You can write like that?
11:27I write in the same way as I usually do when I write.
11:31That's amazing.
11:32I'm excited to try it.
11:34You can write with this.
11:36Oh.
11:37You can also write in English.
11:40This is a glass pen.
11:41Oh.
11:42I see.
11:44Oh.
11:46You can write like that.
11:48It's really smooth.
11:50It's really amazing.
11:53Oh.
11:54That's amazing.
11:55That's wonderful.
11:56It's so smooth that I can't stop writing.
11:59Oh.
12:00That's amazing.
12:01We process the glass with this pen.
12:05Oh.
12:07Can we go and take a look?
12:10It's a little messy.
12:13That's amazing.
12:14You did a good job.
12:18Excuse me.
12:19Excuse me.
12:21Here it is.
12:22Oh.
12:24The hard glass is called hard glass.
12:27But in reality, it's heat-resistant glass.
12:30So it's very hard to melt.
12:32These are the two types of glass.
12:36We attach the glass to the tip of the pen.
12:39The tip of the pen is thinner than the hair.
12:43It's sharp.
12:45Isn't it hot?
12:49I just showed that I don't know anything about that.
12:51Oh, it's hard.
12:52It's really good.
12:54By connecting the glass, you can make the transparent part.
12:57This is where the ink stops.
12:59It's absorbed.
13:00Oh.
13:01It's very strong.
13:02I see.
13:03If you don't make this, your hands will be sticky.
13:06Oh, because there's no capillary.
13:08So the ink doesn't keep going up.
13:10You're smart.
13:11That's very smart.
13:12You can make it like this.
13:15When I'm working on making things,
13:17I can't help but be happy when people tell me
13:19that I'm good at drawing and that I'm interested in it.
13:23Oh.
13:24I came all the way here.
13:26If you don't mind, I'd like to give you one.
13:28What?
13:29I'll give it to you.
13:30A present?
13:32This came out already.
13:34Oh my god.
13:35You must be happy.
13:36Oh my god.
13:37That's too much.
13:39Please use it when you need it.
13:41He said that, you know.
13:44Oh my god.
13:46Thank you very much.
13:48How much is this?
13:50How much is it?
13:51It's the cheapest one available right now.
13:54It's 14,300 yen.
13:57Oh.
13:58Oh, okay.
13:59It's a great present.
14:00I can't believe it.
14:02Oh.
14:06It's so beautiful.
14:08Thank you very much.
14:09Thank you very much.
14:10Thank you very much.
14:11Thank you very much.
14:12It's a great present.
14:13Thank you very much.
14:17I'll take it.
14:18I'll take it.
14:19Oh.
14:20I'm so happy.
14:26Everyone in my family is either...
14:29Everyone in my family goes to university,
14:32either working as a teacher or in hospital.
14:35So, I feel like I always knew that I would have to go to uni
14:40and do something in science.
14:44The beautiful daughter of the Rikei family.
14:50What does Yu want to have more than a transmitter or a pen?
14:56It was a pen!
14:58Oh.
15:06When we were in school, there were these pencils.
15:09You know, the ones with plastic see-through pencil tubes?
15:13And then, you would take out the used...
15:16Even then, you could push it in the back.
15:18And, you know, we kept on exchanging it.
15:20Rocket pencil.
15:21Oh, everyone loved those.
15:23Yeah.
15:24Just started collecting pencils.
15:28I've never used up all of them.
15:31Rocket pencil.
15:32Wow.
15:33That's revolutionary.
15:36It was fun when I was a kid.
15:40Super busy.
15:41Super busy.
15:43This is my last big trouble until I finish.
15:51It's a pen empire in Japan.
15:53It was a pen empire.
15:55It's true that Japanese stationery is very good.
16:00This is traditionally Japanese.
16:04Kyoto is amazing.
16:10Shall we?
16:11Okay.
16:13Hello.
16:16Excuse me.
16:21It's so smooth.
16:25Nice to meet you.
16:26Nice to meet you.
16:29Who is the manager?
16:33I'm the manager.
16:34Oh, I see.
16:35It's like a history book.
16:37It's like a history book.
16:38In Kyoto,
16:41our craftsman made the process from beginning to end.
16:48He made it by himself.
16:50What happened?
16:51It's his proud brush.
16:53It's his proud brush.
16:56It's amazing.
17:00It's a very popular shop.
17:04It's been running for 240 years.
17:08There's no writing on the brush.
17:12If you look at this,
17:15there are various sizes
17:17and colors of the brush.
17:19I've been using the hair of animals
17:21that are close to me
17:23for a long time.
17:25I've been using the brush.
17:28What looks white
17:30is a goat.
17:31It's very soft.
17:34Very soft.
17:37Oh, this is a goat.
17:43It's a good brush.
17:44If you draw with water, it will turn black.
17:46Try it.
17:48Oh, I see.
17:51I don't know how to do it yet,
17:53but I'll try.
17:55Let's try!
18:06I think this one has a thinner end.
18:09The top.
18:10I don't know how to say that.
18:12But it's thinner.
18:14I see.
18:16This is a raccoon.
18:18Oh, it's a raccoon.
18:19It can be loosened.
18:24It looks like a raccoon.
18:32I think if someone were to do
18:34something more artsy,
18:36like edgy calligraphy,
18:38this would be good.
18:41I really like this one.
18:43This one is very nice.
18:45What hair is this one?
18:47It's a raccoon's hair.
18:50Oh, a raccoon's hair.
18:53It's a hybrid brush of a goat and a raccoon.
18:57It's a goat.
18:58It's my favorite.
19:00I like this one, too.
19:02I use this a lot.
19:04It's easy to use.
19:06It's very nice.
19:08I like it.
19:09This is my favorite one,
19:11and I'm really excited to use it.
19:17This is also the ink stone.
19:21It's a raccoon.
19:23It's cute.
19:25I like them. They're very cute.
19:27It's so small.

19:33It's a raccoon.
19:35It's a raccoon.
19:37It's so cute.
19:39I think she wants to carry it.
19:41What is this?
19:43I should buy a lot of these.
19:49Thank you very much.
19:51Thank you very much.
19:53Thank you very much.
19:55A dream come true.
19:57Are you going inside?
20:00Are you going inside?
20:06It's very hidden.
20:12I feel like I'm in someone's backyard.
20:14I feel like I'm in someone's backyard.
20:16I feel like I'm in someone's backyard.
20:18It's mint.
