Nightsong of Splendor
What do you think of this kimono?
It's beautiful.
It's a wonderful Kyo-Yuzen.
I see. Then I'll give it to you, Sara.
Certainly not!
You mustn't, my lady.
Your mother ordered this specially to celebrate
your twentieth birthday this evening.
In that case, Sara,
today is your twentieth birthday too.
Consider it a personal present from me.
Lady Akiko...
We're friends, born on the same day of the same year.
That's not true.
I'm just a maid who works for you.
I'm your servant.
That's so old-fashioned!
If I failed to overcome social norms like class,
I could never call myself a new woman.

But that dress is...
Don't worry. Just get it!
I don't want to play the role of a rich family's daughter.
But your mother!
You must know, Sara.
The party's an excuse for her to introduce me to potential marriage partners.
I don't want that. I hate that sort of thing.

Just as the flowers and seasons change,
you will have many romances.
My, Akiko-san.
Everyone, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting.
Welcome to my birthday party.
The transient town is a blue ark.
Sara! Why is she wearing that dress?
It's split at the thigh.
At the window alone, I dream a gentle dream.
What happened to the Yuzen kimono?
Please accept my apologies.
I swear, that child.
Akiko, allow me to introduce you.
This is the heir to Saionji Bank, Saionji Kiyokuni-kun.
I know him quite well.
I've met him at parties several times.
It's a pleasure to see you once again.
The pleasure is mine.
Kiyokuni-sama, you have to bring your body a little closer.
U-um...
Just like this.
Okay.
What are your thoughts on marriage, Kiyokuni-sama?
On marriage?
Let's see...
You marry for your family, to ensure their prosperity, lifestyle, and-
I completely disagree.
Arranged marriages, especially, are a form of human trafficking in all but name.
Sacrificing yourself for your family...
Ah, I'm so relieved.
You're of the same opinion, then? I'm glad.
No, I mean, I just wanted to...
What a boring birthday that was.
Your mother was furious with you.
That's fine.
I don't want to be sacrificed to a marriage of convenience.
But wasn't Kiyokuni-sama a wonderful man?
He's honest, if nothing else.
Saionji Kiyokuni.
The distinguished heir to the Saionji fortune,
a law graduate of Tokyo University...
and handsome, like Valentino.
It's not even a question, is it, my lady?
If I wanted a traditional marriage, there'd be no contest, but I think I'll pass.
You've read him too, haven't you? Arishima Takeo?
Love Takes without Restraint, correct?
Yep.
"Let families unite where love is fostered, and let them separate where it is not."
"It is only when this freedom is allowed despite all pretenses...
that the lives of both women and men will find liberation."
"From free love to free marriage!"
Bravo!
Near Ginza 4-chome
Still...
Near Ginza 4-chome
Those words are for rich people.
To the working-class poor, it's like a fairy tale.
Not true. Poverty means freedom.
If I were poor, I could marry any man I fell in love with.
Don't kid yourself! Poverty is hell.
Everyone wants to be in a position like yours.
I really envy you, my lady.
How about it, then? You marry Kiyokuni-sama instead, okay?
Come on, my lady, don't say that.
What's wrong with the car? We've stopped moving.

What should we do?
Wait, I have an idea.
Sara, borrow a phone somewhere and summon my driver, Tsukiyama.
Tell him to hurry.
Yes, of course.
What're you guys doing?
This is a nice car.
Mechanical problem?
That's no good.
What are you doing?!
You'll get the car dirty doing that. Get lost!
M-My lady...
What'd'ya say? Get lost?
Ginza
You bitch!
Please stop! You mustn't!
Shut up!
Bro! A woman's screaming outside!
Leave 'em. It's just a lover's spat.
That's not it! Two women are being threatened!
Please accept our apologies! My mistress is not familiar with this neighborhood.
It's my sister!
I'm telling you I don't give a shit!

That kid's like a little brother to me.
I'd greatly appreciate it if you stopped right about now.
And if I don't?

Let's go, Junichiro.

Y-You're Taka of the Aoba Group!

What?!
Wanna stab me?
Go ahead. Try it.
No need to hold back.
Wanna come along?
I'm always prepared to go to hell.
We'll remember this!
Wait up!
Jun, let's go.
I'm...
My name is Akiko, the eldest daughter of Marquis Hasho.
LOYAL
Thank you for saving us.
My lady! There is no need to thank him.
LOYAL
That man is a yakuza, just like the men he fought.
LOYAL
Sis!
Junichiro!
What are you doing in a place like this?!
Hikari Trading
Fujisawa Group
I'll show my thanks the proper way, no matter what.
Bro! Wait up, Bro! Slow down!
Junichiro!
My, my! I can't believe you're visiting a place as cramped and dirty as ours, my lady.
Would it be all right if I stayed the night?
It would not, my lady!
If you did something like that, your mother would surely reprimand Sara.
You don't mind, do you, Sara?
I'll make sure she doesn't scold you.
I saw Junichiro today.
Has that boy stopped working already?
It's only been half a month since he got a job at a bathhouse in Hamacho.
He ran out on the fifth day.
He kept saying a bath attendant "wouldn't amount to anything."
He doesn't come home at all anymore.
He's a hoodlum.
The kind of people he's with are all...
Seriously,
what's wrong with that boy?
He's only fifteen.
I'm glad you turned out the way you did. It's my only comfort.
My lady!
Wasn't he just incredible?
What?
"Wanna come along? I'm always prepared to go to hell." That's what he said.
With nothing holding him back, he walks the wild lands alone.
Despite having weathered the seas of death and passion...
He's able to smile, even in the face of his own demise.
Sara!
That moment gave me goosebumps!
My lady...
Akiko-san!
Acting on a whim is not becoming for the daughter of a noble family!
Just as I brought Sara home, the car broke down.
I did call Tsukiyama, our driver.
You should have called me instead!
Sorry.
I'll do that from now on.
Kiyokuni-sama waited for your arrival all day yesterday.
Didn't you promise to meet him?
I swear...
No need for concern.
I'll make it up to him at some point.
My lady, you called for me?
Yes. Come in.
Pardon me.
I want you to deliver this for me. In person.
To whom?
Taka of the Aoba Group.
You do know where he lives, don't you?
My lady, you mustn't!
Do what?
You mustn't.
Like I said, do what?
You'll only get burned.
Getting close to someone like him is dangerous!
If it's only a burn, I don't mind the pain.
My lady!
Are you going to deliver it or not?
AOBA COMPANY MEDIATION AND COMMISSIONING SERVICES
Excuse me.
What is it, missy?
Um...
I'd like to see Taka, if he's available.
Oh, so you're Bro's new girl? He's on the second floor, middle room.
Thank you.
Oh, Taka!
I have a guest. We'll continue this another time.
Ha! Another new woman?
Please, enjoy yourself.
You have business with me?
My lady asked me to deliver this letter.
On Saturday the 18th,
at 10 PM in Ginza 2-chome,
I'll be waiting at the Kasturagi Restaurant.
Hasho Akiko.
There, I've read it.
Glad we talked.
Anything else?
Please give my brother back.
Don't drag Junichiro into the life of a yakuza!
All right, got it. Now go home.
Ladies like you shouldn't be in a place like this.
I am not a lady.
So what, then?
"A lady" is what you call someone...
like my lady Akiko, who doesn't know the real world.
I'm not that ignorant.
I see. You're saying you know how the real world works, then?
Yes! I've struggled to get where I am, after all.
I'm not afraid of this place at all.
Is that right? Not scared at all?
Understand?
It's that sort of place.
I'm begging you.
Please forgive me.
See? You're a lady too.
Sis!
Why are you in a place like this?
Moron!
Open your eyes already!
AOBA GROUP
Hayama - Marquis Hasho's Villa
Sara.
Yes?
Our guests will be arriving soon, won't they?
Yes.
Father won't be attending the party, so you should try to relax for once.
What?
This is our real 20th birthday party.
For the whole night, this villa's going to be under its own set of laws.
Welcome, Saionji-sama.
My lady, the guests are starting to arrive. I must get back to my duties.
Don't worry, Sara.
I've arranged for the other servants to cover your share of the work.
What?
You're attending as my friend tonight.
Look, we're even the same size.
Maybe your makeup needs to be thicker.
My lady!
Truth is, I have the perfect present for you.
I'm letting you have Kiyokuni-sama all to yourself tonight.
What?
Today's the 18th.
I'm going to Ginza.
Y-You mustn't!
After the party, all you have to do is get in my bed and stay silent.
I'll invite Kiyokuni-sama for you.
I'll be in Ginza, and you'll be in my bed.
We'll both become adults at the same time.
I couldn't!
Turn the lights off and open your heart.
All you have to do is invite him in.
We're going beyond common sense, Sara.
But...
You're going to marry Kiyokuni-sama!
If he takes an interest in you tonight and asks you to marry him,
then who am I to complain?
It's not as if you hate him, right?
Try to pull this off.
You might be able to marry into money.
Love and marriage should be free, shouldn't they?
Come up to my room, tonight at ten.
Akiko-san!
It's the furthest room on the second floor.
All the rooms are open for use!
Please use them as you'd like.
This is my republic.
Freedom and independence are the law!
Kiyokuni-sama, allow me to introduce you.
This is Uchida Sara-san. Isn't she beautiful?
Um, I'm sorry, but haven't I seen you somewhere before?
That is...
Have you remembered yet?
Oh!
You were a maid at the mansion in Azabu.
Yes.
Make sure to take care of him, Sara.
Yes.
My! If it isn't the daughter of Count Furuda, Shizuko-san!
It's been so long!
Would you care to dance?
Yes.
Sara, happy birthday.
Akiko-san is a strange woman.
It's hard to tell whether she's modern or just carefree.
Even if she seems selfish and whimsical, she sticks to her principles.
Sensible people like us end up getting dragged along.
Akiko-sama is too happy for her own good, I'm sure of it.
Ten, no, a hundred times more than me.
Are you happy right now?
I borrowed these clothes from her, so I suppose I am.
Nonsense.
Your beauty is all your own.
Have you had too much to drink?
Yes, a little.
Excuse me, Miss, but when would you like us to bring your food?
I'm expecting a person at ten, so when they arrive.
Yes. Understood.
Kiyokuni-sama will come here at ten.
Nothing.
Don't think about anything, Sara.
That's the way.
At the very least, I don't dislike Kiyokuni-sama.
It's good to be a little drunk, Sara.
Right. Being drunk is better at times like these.
You might find happiness if you do this right, Sara.
Hey, Saionji-kun, stay down a little longer.
I'm already beat. I'm going to sleep early.
You all party to your heart's content.
Akiko-san, this is Kiyokuni.
Come in.
Oh, pardon me! Were you resting?
Wait!
You can enter. Come in.
Please come this way.
Akiko-san, I'm...
I'm...
I'm drunk. Drunk on sake.
Akiko-san...
I love you!
You're...
Please don't go, Kiyokuni-sama!
I'm begging you, please!
Tonight...
Just for tonight...
Please, give me your time for just this one night.
This is the one-night dream...
that I've been allowed to have!
I'm the one who needs to be forgiven, Akiko-san.
If I'd taken one more step, I could've given you a wonderful dream,
but I don't have the courage.
I'm sorry.
For the sake of the bank and the family, I must follow the path laid out for me.
I'm that sort of cowardly person.
If I could defy common sense and live the way I've dreamed of,
I'm sure it would be wonderful.
Kiyokuni-sama...
Akiko-san, today I met a woman.
We danced together, and we spoke.
She was wise and modest, a wonderful person.
Please, if you can, tell her this:
"Even the most wonderful person can lose their way from time to time.
When that time comes, remember to value yourself."
What a stupid...
What a foolish dream!
How embarrassing!
Miss, the restaurant will be closing shortly. Would you like your food sent?
A little longer.
Just a little longer.
Taka, this one's on me.
Just gotta hit the 3-ball into the right pocket.
C'mon, Taka, you sure it's all right? That woman's waiting for you.
Katsuragi Restaurant
We're sorry for the inconvenience, but we're closing.
I was rejected.
Me! By a man!
Unforgivable.
It was just one love letter!
Don't get carried away!
It hurts. It really hurts!
Sara! Sara.
What happened at that villa in Hayama?
You suddenly asked to be let go,
and Akiko has shut herself in her room ever since.
What's gotten into you two?
Tell me!
I'm deeply sorry, but there's nothing to tell.
Sara!
My lady, I've brought your meal.
Also, I'm told that Saionji Kiyokuni-sama is coming to see you today at five.
Is quitting your way of spiting me?
Or do you feel guilty after sleeping with my fiance?
Try a little harder. It's your chance to marry into wealth.
My lady, I've told you countless times.
Why won't you believe me?
Tell me.
Tell me how well it went with you two.
I know how it is.
You play dumb and pretend you don't know,
but you're far smarter than me.
You're the perfect woman.
I'm right, aren't I?
Don't you want to believe in someone? Believe in something?
If I was allowed just a small piece of the truth, the pain in my chest might go away.
Please, Sara, aren't we friends?
Don't lie to me!
My lady...
There's a reason why I'm quitting.
Why I steeled myself to that decision.
I feel I might lose myself if I keep living in this wealthy, privileged environment.
Rather than a one-night dream,
I want to return to a world where I can be myself.
Don't belittle me!

Just as the flowers and seasons change,
you will have many romances.
The transient town is a blue ark.
At the window alone, I dream a gentle dream.
On the other side of the glass,
an intense future of waves
and dreams races past.
And like this, I want my body to drift to you
on the dry wind.
We will meet time and again,
until sadness someday fills the glass of love.
