00:012004, Higashi-Osaka
00:041975, Gojo-Do
00:35A cheerful and free-spirited girl.
00:39Their relationship was good when they were kids.
00:44But they started to work together, and gradually it got worse.
00:49It happens a lot when you work as a parent and child.
00:52Dad used to be so kind.
00:56He took me to so many places.
01:00I miss going to see fireworks with him.
01:04In 1997, she got married.
01:08That's right!
01:12And so, her daughter made a daifuku with her memories of her father.
01:19And that is...
01:23The famous Konoike fireworks.
01:26I know this.
01:28It's a Japanese candy filled with memories of my father.
01:32My father loves fireworks.
01:36And this candy was made to represent the fireworks.
01:43That's a good story.
01:45It's mysterious.
01:47It sells about 1,500 a day.
01:541,500 a day?
01:57Yes.
01:59The story of the father and daughter is set in Kyoto.
02:05A bakery has been loved by the locals for about 30 years.
02:12Suddenly, their father passed away.
02:18The three daughters gathered there.
02:23Even if we follow in his footsteps, we can't be like him.
02:31So...
02:34The three of us will train together.
02:37We will gather again in a few years.
02:40Training?
02:42The three sisters went to train together.
02:46They went to train together.
02:48And then, the bakery reopened.
02:53It's a popular bakery that is always crowded even though it's only open on weekends.
03:03My father used to run this bakery.
03:06He passed away 11 years ago.
03:08I run this bakery with his memories.
03:11This time, we will visit the daughters who inherited their father's memories.
03:20If You Can Imitate, If You Can Imitate.
03:27The first place we visited was Gojodo in Higashi Osaka.
03:32The signboard product is a cream daifuku wrapped in a fruit parfait.
03:39Konoike Hanabi.
03:42This is a popular product that is often sold out early and is also a tribute to the local farmers.
03:51When I cut it, the cross section was wonderful.
03:56It exceeded the image of a normal daifuku.
04:01It has a cake-like texture.
04:04It's very delicious. I recommend it.
04:08Shibata Aya, the second owner, developed this product.
04:16Is the founder your father?
04:19Yes, my father is the founder.
04:21In fact, my father was a great craftsman.
04:25He passed away without being taught at all.
04:34Aya was born as the daughter of a Japanese bakery.
04:37However, she had no intention of inheriting a Japanese bakery that was not profitable due to hard work.
04:43After graduating from university, she worked at a company related to apparel.
04:48In the meantime...
04:53Mom, what's wrong?
04:56Actually, my father has been unwell recently.
05:01I know you're busy, but can you help me?
05:05My mother asked me to come back to my parents' house.
05:10But...
05:14Okay, I'll quit my job and help you make Japanese sweets.
05:21I want to help my father.
05:24Aya was determined to go back to her parents' house.
05:32Dad.
05:34Aya, how are you?
05:37I'll help you run the shop from today.
05:41Dad.
05:47I can do it by myself.
05:51What my father said was surprising.
05:55My mother was the only one who wanted him to help.
06:00I heard from my mother that my father passed away the other day.
06:05I'll make Japanese sweets for you.
06:08Don't say that. What if you pass out again?
06:15Hey.
06:17Dad.
06:19My father didn't know that I came back to Japan.
06:24It was hard for me to take care of my family alone.
06:31I wasn't welcomed at all.
06:36They were good friends when they were children.
06:41But my father, who didn't know how to help his daughter,
06:46gradually distanced himself from his daughter.
06:50Why?
06:53Dad, tell me how to make Japanese sweets.
06:58I'll tell you when I'm too busy to do it.
07:03What should I do until then?
07:07I'll make Japanese sweets.
07:10You don't have to do anything.
07:14This is love, isn't it?
07:17I don't know why he quit his job and came back.
07:20Of course.
07:24But Aya didn't give up.
07:27I see.
07:29That's right.
07:31You said you'd tell me when you're too busy.
07:35Aya changed her mind to sell sweets if she couldn't make Japanese sweets.
07:43She designed and made leaflets by herself.
07:47And she started to promote Japanese sweets.
07:52Hey, Aya.
07:54What are you doing?
07:56Are you going to get in trouble again?
07:58Why?
08:00You're going to get in trouble again.
08:02I don't want to spend money on printing.
08:04Stop it.
08:07That's what my father said.
08:10But as a result,
08:17the shop was full of customers.
08:19I see.
08:24Dad, there are a lot of customers.
08:27You're going to teach me how to make Japanese sweets, right?
08:30She's a cute girl.
08:32I'll tell you when I'm too busy to do it.
08:36Aya kept her promise.
08:39But
08:41I'm busy now, so I can't tell you.
08:45It's a dilemma.
08:47Which one?
08:49When I was too busy,
08:51I couldn't tell you because I couldn't sell sweets to customers.
08:56I was like,
08:58Oh, I see.
09:06That's enough.
09:08If you don't teach me,
09:10I'll make sweets by myself.
09:13She has to learn how to make sweets by herself.
09:16Aya decided to learn how to make sweets by herself.
09:21This is amazing.
09:23She's reliable.
09:25What kind of sweets should I make?
09:29She can't make sweets like her father.
09:34So Aya made
09:38All right.
09:40It's done.
09:42Roll cake.
09:43It's a roll cake.
09:46I'll heat it up.
09:49It's delicious.
09:51I'll put this in the store.
09:56She made a roll cake and put it next to her father's products.
10:01This is a great idea.
10:05Oh, no.
10:07Oh, no.
10:09This is a disaster.
10:14Oh, no.
10:17This is scary.
10:19If you don't say anything,
10:21it means you can make it.
10:23That's right.
10:25After that,
10:27she made macarons and famous sweets one by one and put them in the store.
10:33As a result,
10:36I'd like a roll cake, please.
10:38I'd like three macarons, please.
10:40Three macarons.
10:41Thank you very much.
10:45The store went well.
10:48She doesn't interfere with my new products or what I make.
10:55She doesn't get angry or praise me.
10:58However,
11:00Aya is worried about her father's evaluation.
11:11Dad, I made new sweets and put them in the refrigerator.
11:15Please taste them later.
11:18He ignores me.
11:22He has pride.
11:24He is a confectioner.
11:28Is he eating or not?
11:30He seems to be eating less.
11:32How is it?
11:34He is eating.
11:36He is not eating.
11:38He is stubborn.
11:41He is not eating.
11:43He is not eating.
11:45He is not eating.
11:47Dad, you used to be kind to me.
11:51You took me to many places.
11:55I miss the time when we went to see fireworks together.
12:06That's right.
12:08This is the key point.
12:13Dad, can I use the cushion?
12:17It's up to you.
12:20I don't say no.
12:27I'll make it.
12:31Then, the sweets Aya made...
12:38I made it.
12:41She imagined the colorful fireworks like her father.
12:46She added fresh cream to five kinds of fruits, such as blueberries, oranges, and pineapples.
12:53She wrapped them in the cushion made by her father.
12:58This is delicious.
13:00I thought my father would be happy if he could taste the fireworks.
13:07That's why I made it.
13:11The local name of the fireworks is Konoike Fireworks.
13:17Her daughter made it in the shape of her father's memories.
13:23It's really soft.
13:25I'll eat it.
13:28I thought it would be heavy.
13:30But it's very light.
13:32The fruit is refreshing.
13:35I didn't know it was so delicious.
13:36It goes well with red bean paste.
13:39Fresh cream, red bean paste, and rice cake.
13:42Every time I bite it, it tastes different.
13:45This is delicious.
13:47This Konoike Fireworks is a big hit.
13:50It's been popular in the department store and on TV.
13:56The reason why it's so popular is...
14:02It's good that it was sold frozen.
14:05That's right.
14:09Konoike Fireworks are sold frozen.
14:14It's best to thaw it at room temperature for one hour or in the refrigerator for about six hours.
14:23Here's a question.
14:24What is it?
14:26Konoike Fireworks are sold raw, but they are sold frozen.
14:32The reason why it's a frozen product is...
14:37It's soft, so it's easy to break.
14:43It's delicious when you take it home and leave it for about an hour.
14:46You don't need a freezer.
14:49Frozen dumplings are sold in supermarkets.
14:54I think it's good for distribution.
14:59The relationship with my father is a hint.
15:06I got it.
15:08My father didn't eat the roll cake at all.
15:12He saw the cake was frozen, so he thought it would be good to freeze it.
15:18I see.
15:20You look like you're wrong.
15:22No, I'm not.
15:40The reason why Konoike Fireworks are sold frozen is...
15:52Oh, my father is coming out.
15:55It looks like my father's preparation is over.
15:59All right, let's make it.
16:02After my father came out, he didn't look at me.
16:07My father didn't let me use the factory for a reason.
16:13The time I was given was from the opening to the night.
16:21Before I knew it, my father was making sweets in the kitchen from the morning to the opening.
16:27From the time my father finished making Japanese sweets to the night,
16:30Aya was making sweets in the kitchen.
16:34But...
16:36I didn't have time to serve it in the morning.
16:41I thought I couldn't deliver it to my customers in a fresh and delicious state.
16:49So I decided to sell it frozen.
16:55That's right.
16:56I couldn't use the kitchen at the right time, so I had no choice but to sell it frozen.
17:02But as a result...
17:05If you have this as a souvenir, you'll be happy that it's beautiful.
17:10Really? Thank you very much.
17:12By freezing it, you can see the cross section beautifully.
17:16I see.
17:17The feedback was that the sherbet-like state was also delicious.
17:22It led to a big hit.
17:28In addition, Aya took advantage of the fact that it was frozen.
17:33It's here.
17:34This is a vending machine dedicated to Konoike fireworks.
17:38This will sell at midnight.
17:40That's right.
17:41Sales at the vending machine also started.
17:43It's also at Kaneda Airport.
17:46By freezing it, it was possible to expand the range of sales.
17:53It was such a Konoike fireworks.
17:56Thank you for waiting.
17:57Thank you very much.
18:02Dad, Konoike fireworks sold again.
18:06Say something.
18:09It's so popular. You can say something.
18:15One day...
18:17It's beautiful.
18:22I'm home.
18:23Welcome home.
18:24How was the meeting?
18:25Well...
18:27Well...
18:33Dad said,
18:35Konoike fireworks are using his own Koshien.
18:39I was proud of it.
18:41Really?
18:43I can't show it to my face, but I'm happy.
18:47I see.
18:50In the meeting,
18:52I heard from my seniors that I was happy.
19:01I'm glad to hear that I was happy.
19:10Aya got the result with Konoike fireworks.
19:14But she has to follow her father's taste.
19:19That's what I thought.
19:25Next time, I want to follow my father's taste.
19:30That's what I thought.
19:38Aya!
19:39Dad!
19:41What's wrong?
19:43I fell down.
19:46Are you okay?
19:47Her father, who was weak, suddenly collapsed and fell down.
19:53At that moment, Aya became determined.
19:58Mom.
20:00I'm going to make my dad's Japanese sweets.
20:03But didn't he teach you how to make Japanese sweets?
20:09I'm sure it's okay.
20:11I've been watching him making Japanese sweets for years.
20:15I remember it with my eyes and tongue.
20:18I thought he didn't teach me.
20:28But he did.
20:33He has a very good friend.
20:36He didn't say anything to me for a year.
20:42He made me concentrate on making sweets.
20:52That's why I was able to reproduce it.
20:57That's what I thought.
21:02In this way, Aya followed her memory and reproduced her father's Japanese sweets.
21:09Then...
21:12Did you make this Japanese sweets?
21:17Yes.
21:20I bought it the other day.
21:22It's strange, but it tastes like my father.
21:27Really?
21:29Thank you very much.
21:35Her mother, Saya, also tastes it.
21:41It's like a lie.
21:45I feel like my father's Japanese sweets are coming out.
21:51I'm happy.
21:53After my father passed away,
21:57I asked my father what he would do if I told him.
22:03He said,
22:05He said,
22:07He said,
22:09He said,
22:11He said,
22:13He said,
22:15He said,
22:17He said,
22:19He said,
22:20I was happy.
22:22What does your father think of you now?
22:25I don't think he's complimenting me.
22:30I think he's being stingy.
22:32One by one.
22:36I'm a little regretful.
22:41I felt that my father's Japanese sweets were similar to mine.
22:45When I was 17 years old, I told my father that I wanted to go to Tokyo.
22:50I didn't listen to what my parents said.
22:52My father told me that if I went to Tokyo, he would never come back.
22:55He told me to take over the country.
22:59My father remarried three years later.
23:03During that time, he never showed any interest in my work.
23:08He never told me that I was his proud daughter.
23:13A few years after I remarried,
23:15a taxi driver who often took my father on his taxi
23:19told me that he was very proud of me.
23:22He bought a lot of my calendars for my 100 daughters.
23:26He told me that he was proud of me and gave them to me.
23:29I didn't show him that face at all.
23:32I told him that if I wanted to go, I could go.
23:34I told him that I wasn't interested in entertainment.
23:37I told him that.
23:39I remembered the past.
23:42I told my father that I wanted to see him.
23:45Instead of trying to make Japanese sweets,
23:47you were looking for your father.
23:49I felt the bond between you and your father.
23:55Don't say such a good thing!
23:57Hey!
23:59Don't say such a bad thing!
24:03The daughters received their father's love.
24:07Who is next?
24:1010 minutes' walk from Keihan Kiyomizu-Gojo Station.
24:14Nitta Bakery, a bakery in a quiet residential area.
24:20It's only open for 3 days a week.
24:23It's popular because it's located in a place far from the city.
24:33It's different from a bakery in a convenience store.
24:37It's full of love.
24:40I get addicted to it.
24:43Addicted?
24:44I came here for the first time.
24:46It was delicious.
24:49I came here to buy a baguette.
24:52You came here twice in a row.
24:55It's my father's neighborhood.
25:00I heard that it was restored.
25:03It was good.
25:05It's getting better.
25:08Everyone is smiling.
25:11The owner is Nitta Maki, the eldest daughter.
25:17The third daughter, Rina, is in charge of the development of new products.
25:23My father used to do it.
25:26He passed away 11 years ago.
25:28It was sudden.
25:30He was preparing for the next day.
25:33He suddenly passed away.
25:38It was in 2013.
25:42Maki, the eldest daughter, quit her job and started to help the store.
25:52Dad, you look tired.
25:56It's hard.
25:57It's okay.
25:59Don't push yourself too hard.
26:09Dad, you're not feeling well.
26:14My father was fine, but he collapsed.
26:19A few months later,
26:23He recovered.
26:26Everyone thought he would continue to work.
26:40Dad, I still have a lot to tell you.
26:48I understand.
26:52The store closed for a while.
26:56I have to close the store.
26:59I'll be lonely without this store.
27:03Maki, what should I do?
27:06You're right.
27:11The regular customers are calling for a reunion.
27:16They want me to open the store.
27:19But I can't.
27:21But I don't want to ruin the bread shop that my father loved.
27:27I don't want to ruin it.
27:31But what should I do?
27:33Can you make bread for my father?
27:40My father had a workshop.
27:44He didn't teach me anything.
27:47Even if we follow in his footsteps,
27:50I can't be like my father.
27:54I'm sorry to hear that.
27:57But we have to close the store.
28:00When the store is about to close,
28:05Maki's statement is a warning.
28:10I have a suggestion.
28:13Suggestion?
28:15Let's stop training.
28:19Training?
28:21Let's learn how to make bread together.
28:26I thought we'd do it together someday.
28:33But then I changed my mind.
28:38We're united.
28:40Let's train together.
28:43Let's meet again in a few years.
28:46That's cool.
28:48The three daughters decided to train.
28:54It's a drama.
28:56This is amazing.
29:00What did the three sisters bring back from the workshop?
29:06The story of reviving the bakery after the father's death.
29:11Do you have any siblings?
29:14I have three older brothers.
29:17After my father's death,
29:19I have three older brothers.
29:21It's the same.
29:22It's true.
29:23What kind of shop?
29:25It's a wooden building company.
29:28The three of us work together to keep my father's company from collapsing.
29:35I feel like I'm looking at my three older brothers.
29:45I don't know when,
29:47but when the three of us grow up,
29:50it's time to reopen the bakery.
29:54Let's do our best.
29:57In order to learn how to make bread and manage it,
30:02the three sisters decided to go to a different shop to train.
30:09The popular bakery in Kyoto Yamashina is where the eldest daughter, Maki, went to train.
30:17I want to revive my father's bakery.
30:21Please tell me everything you need to make bread here.
30:27I understand the situation.
30:29I'll tell you what I can tell you.
30:32I met a good person.
30:38Maki worked hard.
30:45Maki, the bread is about to run out.
30:48I'll bake the next one.
30:52She's serious and excellent.
30:57A year passed.
31:03Maki.
31:05Do you want to be a manager?
31:09Me?
31:11Yes.
31:12But you have to manage the staff and calculate the money.
31:16Can you do it?
31:17I'll learn.
31:19If we open a shop someday,
31:22this experience will definitely be useful.
31:25We all have that goal.
31:27I understand.
31:28Please let me do it.
31:32When I was working,
31:34I thought, why don't I be a manager?
31:37I whispered.
31:41At that moment, I thought it would be interesting.
31:46Then, I said I would do it.
31:50She was good from the beginning.
31:53I could feel her passion.
31:56I wanted her to have various experiences.
32:01She had a goal.
32:06She was quick to absorb it.
32:09On the other hand, Sayakawa, a housewife.
32:13I can't bake bread,
32:16so I want to be a customer specialist.
32:20She chose a popular bakery.
32:24She chose a busy shop.
32:28What does the manager look at when the customer comes?
32:32Well,
32:34the customer wants something,
32:37so it's better to fulfill that.
32:39I see.
32:42She learned the secrets of being a good customer.
32:48What about Rina, a housewife?
32:53How do you make croissants?
32:56The most important thing is temperature management.
32:58If the butter melts,
33:00you can't make beautiful layers.
33:04I see.
33:06Can you make it?
33:08She went to a bakery in Tokyo.
33:10She learned the know-how of making bread.
33:17I told the manager
33:20that I wanted him to teach me
33:23the basics of making bread.
33:27When I think of my father,
33:30I still think he used to do it by himself.
33:35I still think it's impossible for me to do it alone.
33:43She doesn't know when she can open the shop again.
33:47However,
33:48she went to her father's bakery again.
33:51The three of them had the same idea.
33:57And two years later,
34:00they learned the know-how of making bread and running a business.
34:05The three sisters got together again.
34:12In 2015,
34:14she decided to reopen her bakery.
34:21But there was a problem.
34:23What?
34:29How is it?
34:31It doesn't taste like the bread my father used to make.
34:37My father's bread is simple,
34:40but I want to eat it every day.
34:44My father's recipe doesn't exist,
34:46so it's impossible to reproduce it accurately.
34:49But my bread is a signature product of my family.
34:53If I sell it,
34:55I want to bring it closer to my father's taste.
34:59There are bakeries all over the world,
35:04so I think it doesn't matter where the bakery is.
35:10Many people come to my bakery
35:15because they like my bread.
35:19They meet again.
35:22But now,
35:23Rina has a question.
35:25By the way,
35:27what do you think of me?
35:31What?
35:32Are you serious?
35:34What do you mean?
35:35Here's the question.
35:38What did Rina do to reproduce her father's bread?
35:46Go ahead.
35:47I think the taste,
35:48the atmosphere,
35:49and the atmosphere of the store are important.
35:52When I served the bread to the customers,
35:54they imitated my father.
35:56They asked me how I ate it,
35:58and where I got the bread from.
36:00I see.
36:01So I tried to deceive them.
36:03I see.
36:04First of all,
36:05I'll take it as a joke.
36:06Stop it.
36:07Stop it.
36:09There are many customers who like your bread.
36:15I asked them how they liked my bread.
36:19I asked them where I got the bread from.
36:23I see.
36:24I asked them where I got the bread from.
36:25You asked the customers how they liked your bread.
36:28I see.
36:30What did Rina do to reproduce her father's bread?
36:39What did Rina do to reproduce her father's bread?
36:47That's right.
36:49I'm going to train at Yamada Bakery.
36:52What?
36:53Is Yamada Bakery your father's training place?
36:56But are you serious?
36:58I've been training in Tokyo for two years.
37:01I'm going to train again.
37:02Are you going again?
37:03I'm serious.
37:04So I'll reopen the bakery in three years.
37:07Wow.
37:08That's amazing.
37:10She went to train for three more years to reproduce her father's bread.
37:17Two plus three is five years.
37:19My father used to sell bread a lot.
37:23He valued bread.
37:26I wanted him to eat bread as if he were eating white rice every day.
37:34So I wanted to reproduce his bread.
37:39Three years have passed.
37:43That's amazing.
37:50Okay.
37:51It's done.
37:57How is it?
38:01It tastes like my father's bread.
38:05She succeeded in reproducing her father's bread.
38:09In 2018, five years have passed.
38:13She reopened Nitta Bakery in its original location.
38:19Now, she sells 40 kinds of bread.
38:22She makes 800 kinds of bread a day.
38:30As soon as the bakery opens at 8 p.m., customers come in one after another.
38:38At 2 p.m.
38:41It's on sale.
38:42It's on sale?
38:43Yes.
38:44It's on sale.
38:45It's on sale.
38:46It's on sale.
38:47It's on sale?
38:48Yes.
38:50Her mother saw her daughters working hard.
38:54My father has been a baker for 30 years.
38:56I was glad that customers waited for him.
39:01I was the happiest when they said,
39:03I'm glad you made it again.
39:05And now...
39:07This is a chocolate bar.
39:10My father made it at that time.
39:13I thought it would be nice to reproduce this.
39:16So, I tried to make it.
39:17It looks delicious.
39:18I made it.
39:20A chocolate bar coated with chocolate on a Danish dough.
39:24It's a popular product that can be sold out immediately.
39:30It's big.
39:32It's delicious.
39:33It's delicious, isn't it?
39:35It's a good snack.
39:37The chocolate is a little bitter.
39:40This is delicious.
39:42Do you think you've caught up with your father's taste?
39:46I think I've caught up with him.
39:48And I think I've surpassed him.
39:51Unexpected answer.
39:52But I'm doing it with that feeling.
39:56Why do you think you've surpassed him?
40:03Because it's on sale.
40:06That's a good story.
40:08That's great.
40:09It's a convenient time now.
40:11There are many IT companies.
40:13It's a time like that.
40:15But...
40:16I thought it was a person's feeling to be the last person in Dokonjo.
40:21She didn't have that yearning.
40:23She didn't have this taste.
40:25I thought I could cry.
40:27I felt the power of a person.
40:31Mr. Aya Shibata of Gojodo sells his specialty, Konoike Hanabi, in the frozen vending machine.
40:38According to Mr. Sato of Manekenja, a frozen vending machine boom is coming.
40:46A frozen vending machine boom is coming.
40:50There is a manufacturer behind it.
40:52That's here.
40:53Sanden Retail System.
40:54I think it's an unfamiliar name.
40:56This company is making Dohiemont.
41:01This is a good idea.
41:03Does that mean it's very cold?
41:04That's right. It's very cold.
41:06In this type of frozen vending machine other than ice cream, you can see Dohiemont in the city.
41:11You can see this kind of thing every now and then, right?
41:14This vending machine is often seen in the city recently.
41:18Most of them are Dohiemont.
41:21You can buy ingredients, pizza, ramen, and everything for 24 hours.
41:28It wasn't that long ago.
41:30It was about 5 years ago in 2019.
41:34At that time, convenience stores were selling frozen food for a long time.
41:39So, we paid attention to this and started developing a vending machine for frozen food.
41:45It can be sold outside of business hours, and there are more opportunities to expand sales.
41:51In addition, the number of stores that will be introduced will decrease due to the reduction of food loss.
41:57At the end of September 2021, there were about 1,000 vending machines.
42:03In September 2024, there were 10,000 vending machines.
42:08That's 10 times the number of vending machines.
42:10That's amazing.
42:11It's selling well.
42:12I learned a good idea from the three of you.
42:16What is it?
42:17Please listen to it.
42:20I made it here and there.
42:22Making Tohi-ebea
42:32Make a hot spring outside of the catapult
42:34I learned a good idea from the three of you.
42:38What is it?
42:39Please listen to it.
42:40The temperature will rise to 36 to 37 degrees.
42:46I made Dohiemont here and there.
42:50Oh!
42:51You put 300 yen in it, and then you cool it down, and then it comes out.
42:56Can you do that?
42:57How is it?
42:58The temperature changes pretty quickly.
43:00Oh, when you open it?
43:01That's true, that's true.
43:02What do you do then?
43:04I'm disqualified.
