00:00Now, let's choose a new life.
00:06Leave the useless things in the house,
00:09throw away the unnecessary things,
00:11and leave the attachment to things.
00:15Choose a new life and way of life with your own decisions.
00:21That is Danshari.
00:25Hideko Yamashita, the founder of Danshari, is the one who makes the decision.
00:33He is a master of Danshari and life, who has guided countless people.
00:40Danshari is the shape of a couple, and the shape of a marriage.
00:43That's Danshari.
00:46Taking care of things means using things.
00:51Choose a new life and way of life with your own decisions.
00:56Now, the door of your life will open.
01:02There is a house with a history of 250 years.
01:09It is a house inherited from the ancestors from the Edo period.
01:15What is inside the house?
01:20What is inside the house is moving.
01:26The kitchen and the table are full of things.
01:33What is the reason for this?
01:37What is the reason for this?
01:39The body that became ill is gone.
01:43I don't need it anymore. I'm glad.
01:45I'll tell you.
01:48I see.
01:51He lost his wife, who he loved the most, and lost the will to clean up.
01:59He wipes away his tears and steps forward with Danshari.
02:08And he decides to make a decision with a lot of scars.
02:16This is what my ancestors were like.
02:18I was born and raised here.
02:20I wish I had those memories.
02:28Hideko Yamashita's Danshari
02:33He lost his wife.
02:35He is a hot-blooded old man with a lot of scars.
02:38He says goodbye to the house with a history of 250 years.
02:48Kasumi, Ibaraki Prefecture, is the second largest lake in Japan.
02:55Hideko Yamashita's Danshari
03:01He visits a house that has come to ask for help.
03:05Oh, it's a nice little house.
03:11Hello.
03:12Hello.
03:13Are you Kano?
03:14Yes, I'm Kano Heizaimon Takaya. Nice to meet you.
03:20Kano Heizaimon Takaya, 60 years old.
03:24This is his real name.
03:29Just like his name, the house seems to have a history.
03:35The roof is made of kayabuki.
03:39When was it built?
03:43I don't know the details, but I think it was built about 250 years ago.
03:48Kayabuki houses are cool in summer and warm in winter.
03:52But it's not like that at all.
03:58A historical building built in the middle of the Edo period.
04:07In fact, Mr. Takaya's ancestor is Mr. Mitohan.
04:13He is a local master who has been around for generations.
04:17Mr. Takaya himself is a council member.
04:22He has been active in the area.
04:27Currently, he is working at home as a new massage therapist.
04:36The window of the house is QLDK.
04:40The three children have already grown up.
04:43Mr. Takaya lives alone.
04:47How many rooms are there?
04:50This is a large room for guests.
04:57The interior of the house is modern.
05:04It was renovated 30 years ago to make it easier to live in.
05:09This poster is from the Self-Defense Force.
05:15The calendar is also a fighter jet.
05:19I'm a self-defense otaku.
05:23I especially like airplanes.
05:27I've loved it since I was a kid.
05:31It's like a hat.
05:35I've loved it since I was a kid.
05:38I also collect self-defense goods such as hats.
05:44What about the other rooms?
05:51It's a room that seems to have a history.
05:58There is an old-fashioned book on the floor.
06:03It says KANO here.
06:06I think it means something.
06:10But I don't know what it means.
06:13I don't know who wrote it.
06:17Mr. Takaya is not interested in old things.
06:22He doesn't know if it's worth it.
06:27Next to the guest room is Mr. Takaya's bedroom.
06:34All the rooms are well-organized.
06:41The other rooms are the same.
06:45There are almost empty rooms on the second floor.
06:49There is also a bathroom.
06:54But there was definitely a problem with the room.
07:01This is the kitchen.
07:05This is where I eat.
07:08And this is where I spend all day.
07:14The dining kitchen is in a terrible state.
07:20There is a lot of stuff on the table.
07:26There is also a lot of stuff on the wall.
07:33What is on the wall?
07:38It's a gold mine.
07:41There are batteries and proteins.
07:45I don't know why.
07:47For some reason, there is a screw here.
07:51It's a bag for dropping balls.
07:56The storage box is a mess.
08:03Why is it like this?
08:08I put things in here.
08:11Every time a guest comes, I put things in here.
08:14It's a mess.
08:18Every time a guest comes, I put things in here.
08:23That's why it's a mess.
08:28The back of the dining room is where Mr. Takaya usually spends his time.
08:35At first glance, it looks like it's clean.
08:40The inside of the shelf is also a mess.
08:46I used to live here.
08:50But I moved here because I had a party.
08:55I don't remember what was under this chair.
09:00This is also a moving room.
09:04It's a moving car.
09:08It's a moving car, so the kitchen is a mess.
09:16But it's only recently that it's become like this.
09:23My wife passed away.
09:26Until then, I was instructed to clean up the mess.
09:32But no one told me to do that.
09:39One year ago, his wife Tomoko passed away of cancer.
09:47He took care of his wife and three children for 30 years.
09:56Tomoko, who always smiles and encourages Takaya and his children,
10:04is said to be like the sun.
10:12She's always positive.
10:15She always smiles at me.
10:18I'm the type of person who does whatever I want.
10:22She's always watching over me.
10:27She's like the sun.
10:33Even when he was sentenced to four years in prison,
10:37he didn't change his smile like the sun.
10:40He didn't even show his depressed face.
10:46He said,
10:48People die anyway.
10:51I changed my mind.
10:54I did what I had to do.
10:57I made a list of things I wanted to do.
11:01I wrote down what I wanted to do,
11:05and made fun memories.
11:08He's the one who's having the hardest time.
11:12I think we should live a happier life.
11:24Two years after he was sentenced to four years in prison,
11:27Tomoko left the country at the age of 58.
11:31Since then,
11:34Takaya has become like an empty shell,
11:37and the house is filled with things.
11:44There are other places where things are overflowing.
11:49This is my clinic.
11:56It's a new type of massage.
11:59The emergency massage room
12:02doesn't have a way to receive patients.
12:08When Tomoko does her massage at home,
12:12the things that are in the way are moved here,
12:15and they remain as they are.
12:19I just push them in.
12:24I haven't done anything for about a year.
12:29It's been almost nine seconds.
12:36I haven't felt like doing any work.
12:39I've been here for a year.
12:47But I can't let my wife see me like this.
12:58He swore to his wife that he would change his life.
13:09Mr. Yamashita.
13:11Please help Takaya.
13:18It's amazing.
13:20This is amazing.
13:21It's amazing.
13:27It's amazing.
13:31Hello.
13:32Nice to meet you. I'm Hideko Yamashita.
13:34Nice to meet you. Welcome.
13:37First, he will show us around the house.
13:43It's wonderful.
13:44This is the room when the customer came.
13:47It's wonderful.
13:51Mr. Yamashita was impressed by the 250-year-old history of the house.
13:59I actually did my wife's funeral at home.
14:03Is that so?
14:05The incense and the lanterns are still here.
14:11It's just as it was during the funeral.
14:15Time has really stopped.
14:21Now, let's go to the dining room.
14:26This is the kitchen and the dining room.
14:34I feel like I'm a man now.
14:37It's sad.
14:40I've lost the energy to clean up.
14:44It's been a year.
14:47That's what this scene is about.
14:54Every time a customer comes, we put out a display.
14:59We don't know what's in the display.
15:05What caught Mr. Yamashita's eye?
15:10Is this your wife's?
15:12Yes, my wife uses this wig.
15:19There are many wigs that Mr. Yamashita used during his illness.
15:28Mr. Takaya has been moving things
15:32as he lived with his wife before his death.
15:37Where should I start?
15:44Mr. Yamashita gives a clear answer.
15:50I think it's important to start by cleaning up
15:55your wife's belongings.
16:01Then you'll know where the wig is.
16:07Mr. Yamashita's wig
16:14He says it's time to get rid of it.
16:21It was necessary for his wife because she was sick.
16:27Her body was no longer sick.
16:33I think it's good to think that her illness has been cured.
16:43I see. It was necessary because she was sick.
16:46She didn't need it anymore.
16:50I see. It was necessary because she was sick.
16:53I think it's good to think that her illness has been cured.
16:59I think it's good to think that her illness has been cured.
17:05Mr. Tomoko didn't wear a wig because he liked it.
17:10He had cancer, so he couldn't help it.
17:15Mr. Yamashita tells her not to keep it as a memento.
17:26I'm glad you don't need it anymore.
17:31I'm sorry.
17:35I'm sorry.
17:41Mr. Yamashita told her that he was going to move out in a year.
17:52I was in the hospital at the end of the year.
17:56I was wearing a wig to go out.
18:00I don't need it anymore.
18:03I see. I see a little.
18:08Something seems to have fallen into the dust.
18:16Let's start the work.
18:22The work begins with Mr. Tomoko's wig.
18:30Mr. Yamashita's wife, Ms. Tomoko.
18:34It's better to put it in a paper bag than to put it in a garbage bag.
18:39It's not her own hair.
18:42If you think so, you can pack it a little.
18:46Let's do it.
18:49Put it in a paper bag and dispose of it.
18:55Then something unexpected happened.
19:00Do you need another toaster?
19:03You haven't used it before, have you?
19:06Mr. Tomoko's favorite toaster.
19:12You don't need it, do you?
19:16I don't need it.
19:21He suddenly let go of it.
19:25I don't need this face.
19:27I don't need this.
19:30I don't need it.
19:33This is a dashi from the Shinkyu-shikai.
19:36I don't need it.
19:39He couldn't use it at all this year.
19:43It's like a lie.
19:48It seems that his feelings have changed after disposing of the wig.
19:54When he crossed the mountain, what caught his eye was...
20:00Let's drink tea.
20:03What is this?
20:06I got this from something.
20:09This is a suspicious perfume from Brazil.
20:12It's like a love potion.
20:16Tea and perfume are mixed.
20:20There are CDs and sweets.
20:24Everything is mixed up.
20:28The storage case for sorting is meaningless.
20:35I don't need a case like this at all.
20:39You don't have the personality to separate it so finely, do you?
20:42Not at all.
20:44After all, there is only one thing in our heads.
20:48There are one, two, and three things in our heads.
20:53There are a lot of things here.
20:56It's impossible to try to separate a lot of things in detail.
21:01Even if you try to sort it in detail, it will eventually become troublesome.
21:07Everyone seems to have experience.
21:12If so, it is better to decide from the beginning to three and divide it roughly.
21:22It's too much to divide so far.
21:25I've never seen anyone who can do this.
21:27I think we are the same.
21:29If it becomes four, I don't know anymore.
21:32I see.
21:34The secret of classification is not to overdo it and divide it in detail.
21:44Those who have made a decision are on the table for the time being.
21:51There are quite a few things to keep.
21:56I can't use the table as it is.
22:03Ms. Yamashita found a basket.
22:09It's a snack and a food basket.
22:12One is a snack and the other is a food basket.
22:17First, put the snacks and food into the basket.
22:23What is this?
22:26I don't know.
22:28At this stage, it is good to divide it roughly.
22:36Next.
22:38Let's put the documents you want to take here.
22:43Put the documents in the bag in the same way and put them together.
22:51Other things go to another case.
22:58What is this doing?
23:03If you divide it into three,
23:06you can say that one basket is less than the previous one and the other one is more than the previous one.
23:14Those who have made a decision are divided into three categories.
23:18After that, it is said that if you cut it in the gap time of every day, it will be tidied up effortlessly.
23:33If you continue to work for three hours from the start of cutting,
23:37you can see that what was piled up on top of the storage has disappeared cleanly.
23:55The table where documents and snacks were left behind seems to be able to eat calmly.
24:08It seems that he was finally able to get out of the life of Otoko Yamami, which gave him sadness.
24:22It's amazing. It's like a model room.
24:26It has changed into a house.
24:29It's a low-level model room.
24:31Do you like the level?
24:33It's important to throw away things and pick up the comfort.
24:38If you are in a comfortable space, you will naturally get energy.
24:43I don't need anything around there.
24:45I don't need it.
24:46Let's throw it away.
24:47Let's throw it away.
24:48Let's throw it away.
24:49It's good.
24:53Takaya, it seems that the scenery you can see so far has changed.
24:58And in the big weather on this day, Takaya's decision, which can be said to be the greatest in his life, will be postponed.
25:284 days later
25:354 days later since the start of the demolition.
25:40Good morning.
25:41Good morning.
25:44Has the demolition been going on since then?
25:49Actually, there was the same shelf here before, but I took it off.
25:59It moved boldly again.
26:04He disposed of the storage above.
26:09If there is storage, it will be tied up.
26:12In other words, I think it will be a special moving.
26:16So I decided to stop it.
26:20He is going to reduce the storage itself and build a tile.
26:26I'm going to remove this.
26:34He also removed other storage and prevented it from moving by himself.
26:40He also prevented it from moving by himself.
26:46It's heavy.
26:49He was able to regain his motivation so far because he was struck by the quarrel with Mr. Yamashita.
27:00Especially my wife's wig.
27:06I wonder if it's a draw.
27:08I lost the person I didn't want to lose the most, and I was addicted to it.
27:16By cutting it off, I can dispose of things that have been involved in this house for a long time and that I can't throw away.
27:28I was able to see if it was okay to leave it as it was.
27:35No matter how much he admires it, his beloved wife is no longer there.
27:44He accepted the reality and became positive to live in the present.
27:52Okay.
27:55I want to move this.
27:59Oh, it's a very old cabinet.
28:05I wonder what's in it.
28:08I don't know if I need it or not.
28:14It's a fire alarm.
28:17Oh, it's a cover.
28:22I think it's a candle holder.
28:26Look, it's a candle.
28:27It's a candle.
28:30He used to carry candles like this.
28:38However, Mr. Takaya says he is not interested in the old things in this house, but why is that?
28:50I wasn't born here.
28:52I was born in Mito City.
28:54I moved here when I was 27 years old.
29:01In fact, this house was originally inhabited by relatives.
29:09Mr. Takaya was born in Mito City, Ibaraki Prefecture, and grew up in Tokyo when he was a student.
29:17He has been interested in agriculture since he was in junior high school.
29:24He went to Tokyo Agricultural University.
29:30He taught agriculture in new countries since he was a student.
29:37It was his dream to get a job related to agriculture overseas after graduation.
29:47However, his relatives suddenly brought up a problem.
29:55They wanted him to inherit the family business.
30:01I didn't hesitate at all.
30:03On the contrary, the people in the area said,
30:06Mr. Takaya, you are a father now.
30:09You are a father now.
30:11I was really grateful for the flow of my ancestors.
30:14I thought I had to do something here.
30:22Mr. Takaya inherited the house and name of a local master at the age of 27.
30:31However, his life was different from what he had imagined.
30:37The people in the area wanted him to work as a council member or manage a nursing facility.
30:48For Mr. Takaya, who wanted to do agriculture, it was definitely not his true intention.
30:59When he was worried about this,
31:02the person who supported him was Mr. Tomoko, who got married right after he inherited the house.
31:13When I became a council member, I said, I don't want to be a politician.
31:17But everyone told me to do it.
31:19So I said, why don't you give it a try?
31:21I think it's a good idea.
31:23So he always supported me.
31:27Yes.
31:31This year, when he lost the support of his heart,
31:36was a blank time wandering in the maze of life.
31:42Okay, let's move this.
31:48He disposed of the shelves one after another and continued to stand on the road.
31:53It may be a sign of his determination not to go back.
32:16Let's take off the shelf.
32:24He even started to take off his favorite poster.
32:30Actually, at this time, there was a determination in his heart.
32:36I said it was cool.
32:38Well, it's an airplane.
32:41He showed me the house in his heart.
32:46This house is over.
32:50I'd like to clean it up on my behalf.
32:53I'm asking a lot of people now.
32:56He left the house and the land that he inherited from his ancestors.
33:04Why did he do that?
33:13Two weeks after the demolition,
33:17Mr. Takaya was working in a house near his home.
33:26I'm cutting chestnuts.
33:30I'm cutting branches.
33:34He grows chestnuts and sells them.
33:39Mr. Takaya grows chestnuts and sells them.
33:45He says he can't make money because he doesn't have much harvest,
33:49but he's taking care of the chestnuts.
33:59Anyway, this chestnut field is quite large.
34:06From this fence, it's all chestnuts.
34:13Are there any other chestnuts?
34:15Yes, there are.
34:17There are a lot of wild chestnuts in the mountains.
34:21As expected, there are only local chestnuts.
34:24He owns a vast land and forest around his house.
34:30He has a lot of chestnuts.
34:34I think it's a tool that people envy,
34:37but it's also a big problem.
34:43The bamboo in the chestnut field is all over the place.
34:46It's amazing.
34:48I have to take care of it,
34:50but I can't do it yet.
34:55I'd like to clean it up on my behalf.
35:01In the near future,
35:03he decided to leave this land and house.
35:07Why?
35:10Even if I had the land now,
35:12I would have a hard time.
35:14When I came here three years ago,
35:16I wanted to protect this house and make it bigger.
35:21But in reality,
35:23when I think about my family,
35:26it's hard for me to take care of my children.
35:30Especially in this day and age.
35:34It costs a lot of money to manage the land.
35:39In addition, it costs almost 10 million yen
35:43to replace the roof of the house.
35:48I can't put this burden on my children.
35:53He has been thinking about this for a year
35:56since he lost his wife.
36:02It doesn't have to be a shape.
36:04It has to be a heart.
36:06I want my children to be proud
36:09that their ancestors were like this.
36:12I want them to remember that
36:14they were born and raised here.
36:19Of course, he had doubts
36:22about whether he could stand on his own two feet.
36:28However, as he began to work on Danshari,
36:32his doubts turned into determination.
36:38It's still a mess.
36:40However, it was still too early to leave the house.
36:44It's still too early to leave the house.
36:47The most important thing now is to proceed with Danshari.
36:53I don't want to show you too much.
36:57Here you go.
36:58This is what it looks like.
37:02Oh my.
37:05The table for Yamashita-san and Kirei-san's meal
37:09is back to normal.
37:13It's back to normal.
37:19It's a mess of food and other things.
37:25I put it here when I was working outside.
37:29It's strange.
37:30I don't know when the customers came.
37:33I can't take it out.
37:35Yes.
37:37The kitchen is still full of seasoning.
37:44He doesn't clean up the living space at all.
37:51I'll move this right away.
37:57No, no.
37:59You have to do Danshari, not moving.
38:06I'm suddenly worried.
38:15We received a message that Tomoko's first week had gone well.
38:24When we visited her the next weekend...
38:28I have a helper today.
38:31I'll help you.
38:36A helper?
38:39Who could it be?
38:42She's my older sister.
38:45Her name is Murata Chise.
38:49Chise-san, who lives in Ibaraki Prefecture.
38:56Benkei-san, who came from Tokyo.
39:00And his girlfriend, Akemi-san.
39:05Okay, let's do it.
39:09It's a strategy to clean up at once with four people.
39:16I don't need a weapon.
39:19I'm pushing it.
39:24Takaya-san was pushing the food into the shelf while moving.
39:28He's getting rid of it.
39:32That's a lot of speed.
39:42For the past year, the family has been worried about Takaya-san.
39:50When he's in front of people, he's very cheerful.
39:55When he's with his family, he cries easily.
40:01I called my younger brother's friends and juniors.
40:06I asked them to go see how he was doing.
40:09I asked them to invite him over for a meal or a drink.
40:13That's what I did.
40:17But in the last week of Tomoko's first week...
40:21...the family found out that Takaya-san was about to change.
40:28Wow!
40:30No way!
40:32What happened to this?
40:34Do you see it?
40:36It's gone!
40:41Everyone was surprised at how serious he was about getting rid of the shelf.
40:47It's clean now.
40:49He decided to support Takaya-san who was about to change.
40:58And the last part of the work.
41:03I don't need this.
41:05I don't need any of this.
41:08The older sister takes care of the kitchen.
41:17She tidies up as she watches.
41:21It's perfect.
41:23It's perfect.
41:27It looks good.
41:31What?
41:32It looks good, right?
41:37Thanks to the older sister's hard work, the kitchen...
41:42...has regained its original shine and has become shiny.
41:52The shelves that were filled with documents and objects...
41:58...are now used as bookshelves.
42:02The darkness created by the helplessness has disappeared.
42:09Takaya-san and the dining room have regained their brightness.
42:19However, the family is still unsure...
42:24However, the family is still unsure...
42:31I'm worried about whether I can maintain this beauty.
42:37It's hard to throw it away.
42:39But now you can throw it away.
42:42I hope you do your best.
42:45I'll do my best.
42:48There is always a family member who cares about her.
42:54Even if the family disappears, this bond will never change.
43:01Takaya-san's final day of work.
43:05Takaya-san's final day of work.
43:11Takaya-san has a lot of furniture.
43:14I realized that he was actually a carpenter with a lot of furniture.
43:23He was very determined.
43:27Takaya-san is a life carpenter.
43:31We are the most difficult to throw away.
43:35We are the most difficult to leave.
43:39The most difficult thing for us is our family.
43:45Takaya-san's most important wife was abandoned by her own family.
43:53That's why Takaya-san made the biggest decision in his life.
43:59He decided to leave his house and land.
44:05Takaya-san was originally a free person.
44:10He was a free person in his life.
44:13When he was 27 years old, he took over his house and land.
44:18He did his best until this age.
44:22But from now on, he decided to go back to his original life.
44:30He decided to leave his house and move on to a new life.
44:35He was a great carpenter.
44:39He said,
44:41I want to be free and fly anywhere.
44:44I think that's Takaya-san's way of life.
44:50Takaya-san returns to his house.
44:55Takaya-san returned to his house after a year.
45:03I'm going to do the left foot.
45:06The treatment room was full of things.
45:10It has returned to its original form.
45:15Regular patients have been waiting for this day.
45:22Takaya Kano, who gives strength to everyone,
45:26I think I've gained another one.
45:30I'm going to change my mind.
45:33Change your mind?
45:35What is it?
45:36It hurts a little.
45:38It's okay.
45:41He survived the days full of wounds and came back to life.
45:48Tomoko-san must be smiling like the sun
45:52looking at him from heaven.
