Every once in a while Rumiko Takahashi puts out a one-shot in Big Comic Original magazine. This year's is "Toshigai mo naku" ("Wrong For One's Age"). Since these one-shots are not licensed for release in the US, for this script I'll give the go-ahead for people to use as they please.
----
1.
Title: "Wrong For One's Age"
subtext: "Without a doubt, he passed age 40 a long time ago. A sexagenary cycle came and went and he passed 60. My father had reached a respectable age..."
----
2.
Hiroyuki: "Hirotarou, Kaori-san. I'll likely be remarrying."
Hirotarou: "Hah?!"
Kaori: "Father..."
text: "When my father, Hiroyuki (67) said that,"
text: "It was shortly after the second anniversary of my mother's death."
text: "In other words, it had only been two years since my mother died..."
Hirotarou: "What do you mean, Dad? Are you seeing someone?!"
----
3.
Wakaba: "I'm coming iiiin!"
Hiroyuki: "Oh, here she is!"
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san, how're ya doin~?"
Hiroyuki: "We've been waiting for you, Wakaba-chaaan!"
----
4.
Wakaba: "So you're his son, Hirotarou? Nice to meet yooou."
Hirotarou: "Yeah... Eh?!"
Hiroyuki: "Wakaba-chan goes to the same gym as me."
Wakaba: "We kinda happened on a chance meeting."
Hiroyuki: "And we really hit it off."
Hirotarou: "Um, pardon me for asking, Wakaba-san, but... how old are you?"
Wakaba: "I'm 28."
Hiroyuki: "Hirotarou, she's 7 years your junior."
Hirotarou: 'Whoawhoawhoawhoa...'
----
5.
Kaori: "Oh... what a pretty ring..."
Wakaba: "Isn't it nice? Diamond is my birth stone."
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san gave it to me~"
Hiroyuki: "And it only cost me 500 thousand."
Hirotarou: "500 thousand!"
Hirotarou: 'Who the hell is this woman...? Anyway, Dad, you're being duped.'
Hirotarou: 'My father and late mother had lost interest in each other, and were a couple who almost never spoke.'
----
6.
Hirotarou: 'My mother would sometimes make something like a joke,'
Mother: "You got me pregnant, so I had no choice but to marry you."
Hirotarou: 'and say things like that,'
Hirotarou: 'But it wasn't a joke.'
Hirotarou: 'Two years ago, though she had been healthy until the day before, my mother had a sudden seizure and fell, and she never returned to us.'
Hirotarou: 'I don't remember my father showing any tears.'
Hiroyuki: "Sighh..."
relative: "But in the end, it was still 'till death do they part."
relative: "Honestly, I was anxiously wondering if they'd get divorced."
Kaori: "Ah... so Father and Mother were that...?"
relative: "Yeah, Kaori-san, you only entered the family a short time ago so you still don't know."
text: "Mother's relatives"
text: "drunk"
relative: "I suppose we could tell you now."
----
7.
Kaori: "Eeh?! Mother was engaged to another man?!"
relative: "But that man ran off with another woman."
relative: "So, she was desperate. It seems that she went out drinking with a coworker, Hiroyuki-san, and the ended up at a hotel."
relative: "And that's how Hirotarou-kun was born!"
relative: "Though no one's ever told him about it."
Hirotarou: 'And I seriously... didn't want to hear about it.'
----
8.
Hirotarou: 'There was no love between my late mother and father.'
Wakaba: "See ya later!"
Hiroyuki: "Let's go shopping and get something good to eat!"
Hirotarou: 'That was probably why...'
Kaori: "What should we do, Dear? That woman is absolutely a gold-digger."
Hirotarou: 'Since that day, that woman Wakaba...'
Hirotarou: "I'm hoome."
Wakaba: "Oh, welcome back! I went ahead and used your bath."
Hirotarou: 'came and went from our house as she pleased.'
----
9.
Hirotarou: "Eeeeh?!"
Wakaba: "I'm taking a beer."
Kaori: "Dear!"
Hiroyuki: "Oh, Hirotarou, you drinking with us?"
Hirotarou: "Does that woman intend to stay here?!"
Kaori: "We have to do something!"
Kaori: "Just what is with that woman? She scares me."
Hirotarou: "I know. Leave this to me."
Hirotarou: 'I need to speak to her frankly.'
Hirotarou: "Hey you."
----
10.
Wakaba: "Shh. Hiroyuki-san is asleep."
Hirotarou: "He probably already told you,"
Hirotarou: "But my father is a senior citizen on a pension fund."
Wakaba: "Um... what's this about?"
Hirotarou: "I'm telling you that if you're planning on tricking my father, you're not going to get very much money."
Wakaba: "Money? Oh stop, Hirotarou-kun."
Hirotarou: 'Don't call me Hirotarou-kun.'
----
11.
Wakaba: "I just want to be with Hiroyuki-san."
Wakaba: "That's really all there is to it."
Hirotarou: "Why?"
Wakaba: "Lately I've just, you know, started feeling sorry for him."
Hirotarou: "Why?"
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san was always talking about his late wife, your mother,"
Wakaba: "And how much he couldn't help but love her."
Hirotarou: 'Huh?!'
----
12.
Wakaba: "Your mother was abandoned by her fiance when she was younger, right?"
Hirotarou: 'Dad... you told this to a total stranger?!'
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san always loved your mother, and told me he decided that since she'd been hurt, he wanted to always be by her side to encourage her."
Wakaba: "But..."
Hiroyuki: "My wife really was only with me out of obligation."
Wakaba: "Eeeh?! Was she really?"
Hiroyuki: "It's true, she never loved me once."
Hirotarou: 'Urgghh...'
Mother: "You got me pregnant, so I had no choice but to marry you."
----
13.
Mother: 'My belly was already showing so we didn't have a wedding ceremony. Not to mention I never even got a ring. Well, by now it's not like I'd want one, anyway.'
Hirotarou: 'It's true that Mom went that far with her words. I'd just thought she was teasing him.'
Hirotarou: "Hey. I want a serious answer."
Hirotarou: "It seems that Dad is thinking of asking you to marry him."
Wakaba: "Huh?"
Wakaba: "Eeeh, really~? Me?"
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san, you're adoreable!"
----
14.
Wakaba: "But Hiroyuki-san and I aren't in that kind of relationship. I just want to be with him as friends."
Hirotarou: "Eh? You sure?"
Wakaba: "Totally sure."
Hirotarou: "Oh, well, in that case..."
Hirotarou: 'It's Dad's one-sided crush, then! Thank goodness!'
Wakaba: "Oh, but I want to honor Hiroyuki-san's feelings. So it would probably be better not to tell him that I have no intention of marrying him..."
Hirotarou: "Wakaba-san..."
----
15.
Kaori: "Eh? So she's not trying to con him into marriage?"
Hirotarou: "Yeah, that Wakaba girl"
Hirotarou: 'Might unexpectedly be a good person. I do feel a bit sorry for Dad, though.'
Hirotarou: 'However...'
Wakaba: "Woow, a Hermes Handbag?! Thank you, Hiroyuki-san!"
Wakaba: "I don't know what to say, you only just bought me this coat, too."
Hiroyuki: "It looks good on you, Wakaba-chan."
Hirotarou: 'My father was beginning to lavish Wakaba.'
----
16.
Hirotarou: "Hey, dad, would you cut it..."
Hiroyuki: "Don't worry, there's plenty of money from the fixed-term savings I cancelled."
Hirotarou: "Savings account?! You'd go that far..."
Hiroyuki: "I just want to see that girl happy!"
Hiroyuki: "Today we're celebrating her birthday. We have a reservation at a French restaurant."
Kaori: ".... February's birth stone is amethyst."
Hirotarou: ".... So?"
Kaori: "I'm sure she said her birth stone was diamond. She was lying to us."
----
17.
Hirotarou: 'Wakaba was a liar.'
Woman: "Excuse me, Miss!"
Kaori: "Oh, the woman from across the street."
Woman: "I'm on my way home from the gym."
Kaori: "Yeah, the gym that my father-in-law goes to."
Woman: "I was stopped by a detective-looking man with a sharp expression..."
Man: "Do you know this woman?"
Woman: "It was the woman who follows your father-in-law around."
Kaori: "Eh? Follows him around?"
Woman: "It's a rumor around the gym. That woman would wait around for him to come and then approach him."
Wakaba: "Good afternoon."
Hiroyuki: "Oh, what a coincidence."
----
18.
Hirotarou: "In other words, Dad's being targetted?"
Kaori: "It definitely looks that way."
Kaori: "Look, Dear, shouldn't we contact the police...?"
Hirotarou: "Aren't you overreacting?"
Kaori: "But she's a woman a detective-looking guy is searching for. She may be a criminal..."
Hirotarou: "A criminal... I can't believe..."
Kaori: "Please hurry home. I'm scared, too..."
Hirotarou: 'So she was taking advantage of my father's loneliness. Feelings that came from losing my mother...'
Hirotarou: 'That's it, he's using her as a replacement for her.'
----
19.
Hirotarou: 'I only once witnessed my father bringing my mother a gift.'
Hiroyuki: "I'm hoome!"
Hirotarou: 'I was still in middle school, and it was my mother's birthday.'
Hirotarou: 'He came home drunk and handed over some roses to my mother without a word. My mother took them silently.'
Hirotarou: 'Some kind of ceremony?'
Hirotarou: 'My late mother was a person unable to show joy as a woman.'
Hirotarou: "Hey! I'm back!"
Kaori: "Dear, hurry! You have to stop Father!"
----
20.
Hirotarou: 'An insurance agent?!'
Agent: "Oh, excuse me."
Hiroyuki: "Let's see, name stamp, name stamp..."
Kaori: "You're naming Wakaba as the benefactor to your life insurance...?!"
Hirotarou: "Wha..."
Hirotarou: 'This reeks of foul play!'
Hirotarou: "Are you an idiot?! That woman has no intention of marrying you!"
Agent: ".... Well?"
Hiroyuki: "It's fine, it's fine, even if she's not a relative she can still be the benefactor, right?"
----
21.
Hiroyuki: "There."
Hirotarou: 'He... he stamped it!'
Detective: "Excuse me!"
Kaori: "What is it at a time like this?!"
Detective: "I've been told that this woman has been seen coming and going from your house."
Hirotarou: 'The detective-looking man!'
----
22.
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san, I came to get you! The hot springs..."
Detective: "Wait!"
Wakaba: "Like I'd wait for you!"
Hiroyuki: "Hey, did I just hear Wakaba-chan's voice...?"
Hirotarou: "Dad, open your eyes."
Hirotarou: "That woman isn't coming back."
----
23.
Agent: "Umm, the recipient of the insurance money is..."
Hirotarou: "No longer here."
Hiroyuki: "Sigh... you left, Wakaba-chan?"
Hiroyuki: "I was thinking of leaving you this house, too."
Hiroyuki: "Just kidding. Sorry, bad joke."
Hirotarou: "Don't just sign over the deed on your own whims!"
paper: "Deed of Ownership"
Hiroyuki: "I said it was a joke."
Kaori: "The worst kind."
Hirotarou: "In this circumstances, I'm going to thoroughly double-check."
Hirotarou: "Hn?!"
----
24.
Hirotarou: 'Divorce papers?!'
Hirotarou: 'What is this?! My late mother's name and name seal are on it.'
Hirotarou: 'And my father's name... but his seal isn't on it.'
Hirotarou: "Dad, what is...?"
Mother: 'I want you to decide.'
-----
25.
Hiroyuki: 'That was right after Hirotarou got married and went off on his honeymoon.'
Mother: 'Thank you very much for staying with me.'
Hiroyuki: 'Hirotarou and his wife were planning on moving into an apartment to live. That's why...'
Hiroyuki: 'The two of us would go our separate ways... and this house would...' (ed. Changed this line to make more sense in context, there was confusion over what "become two people again" was meant to convey)
Mother: 'I want you to decide.'
Wakaba: "Hiroyuki-san, it's me!"
Hiroyuki: "Wakaba-chan?!"
----
26.
Kaori: "It's not just divorce papers. It's like an application form..."
Hirotarou: "Hn?"
Hirotarou: "Dad?"
Hirotarou: "Hn?!"
note: "I've gone out. -Dad"
Kaori: "Ah, the suitcase is gone!"
Hirotarou: "Suitcase..."
Kaori: "Father was planning on going to the hot springs with her today. He asked me to help him pack."
Hirotarou: 'Hot springs?!'
Kaori: "Hey, about the life insurance benefactor thing... do you think that woman forced him into it...?"
----
27.
Hirotarou: 'That must be it. Plus, that woman doesn't know that she was erased as the benefactor.'
Hirotarou: 'She's an insurance murderer!'
newspaper: "Murderer in the Mist"
newspaper: "67 Year-Old Man Drowned in Hot Spring"
Hirotarou: 'Dad's in danger!'
Kaori: "Get to Tokyo Station!"
Hirotarou: "Taxi!"
Hirotarou: 'What are you doing, Dad?! Don't you realize you're being duped?!'
Hirotarou: 'Or do you realize it?! Do you just go along with that woman's lies while knowing all about it?'
----
28.
Hirotarou: 'Were you really that lonely?!'
Hirotarou: 'Please, Mom. Protect Dad.'
Hirotarou: "!"
Hirotarou: "Stop!"
Hirotarou: "Dad!"
Hiroyuki: "Hey, Hirotarou!"
Hirotarou: "!"
----
29.
Hirotarou: 'The detective-looking guy!'
Detective: "Wakaba!"
Wakaba: "Oh, leave me alone!"
Detective: "I'm begging you, please come back!"
Hirotarou: "Huh?"
Hirotarou: 'The man was Wakaba's husband.'
Detective: "You got a diamond and fur from an old man?!"
Wakaba: "But he was happy when I accepted them."
Hirotarou: 'This woman is...'
----
30.
Wakaba: "Sorry, Hiroyuki-san. I wasn't trying to deceive you."
Hiroyuki: "It's fine. I had a lot of fun."
Detective: "Sorry about this."
Wakaba: "Bye, Hiroyuki-san!"
Hirotarou: "Haah..."
Hiroyuki: "That diamond ring..."
Hiroyuki: "was actually something I bought for your mother."
Hirotarou: "Eh...?"
Mother: 'I want you to decide.'
----
31.
Hiroyuki: 'At that time, she put forward divorce papers and a ring catalog.'
Hiroyuki: 'I was furious that she was still testing me after so long, I didn't have the will to get divorced, so I bought the ring. Even so...'
Hiroyuki: 'Before I could give her the ring...'
Hiroyuki: "Sigh...."
Hiroyuki: "It just became this unresolved issue hanging in front of me."
Hirotarou: 'But...'
Kaori: "Jeez, Father, we were so worried about you!"
Hirotarou: 'What we pulled out from beneath the divorce papers in the letterbox...'
paper: "Mori Photo Studio Reservation Application"
Hirotarou: 'Were forms for formalwear rental and a photo studio with my mother's name filled in.'
----
32.
Kaori: "Wow, she had reservations for a wedding dress and morning wear! Mother wanted wedding photos taken!"
Hirotarou: ".... So, Dad, did you know?"
Hiroyuki: "No..."
Hiroyuki: "I see... a bit silly, though, and unbecoming of her age..."
Hirotarou: 'Somehow my father seemed refreshed.'
Hirotarou: 'Now he's lavishing his first grandchild.'
Hiroyuki: "Shiori-chaan, look! Isn't it cuuute!"
Hirotarou: "You bought useless stuff again."
