Name: 言叶之庭 (Yán Yè Zhī Tíng)
Genre: Drama, Romance, Slice of Life, Psychological
Takao, who is training to
become a shoemaker, skipped school and is sketching shoes in a Japanese-style
garden. He meets a mysterious woman, Yukino, who is older than him. Then,
without arranging the times, the two start to see each other again and again,
but only on rainy days. They deepen their relationship and open up to each
other. But the end of the rainy season soon approaches …
Yukino bids him farewell
with a tanka (a form of Japanese poetry), leaving Takao puzzled as to
its origin and meaning.
なるかみの,
すこしとよみて,
さしくもり,
あめもふらぬか,
きみをとどめむ
[A faint clap of thunder,
Clouded skies,
Perhaps rain will come.
If so, will you stay here
with me?]
Takao meets Yukino at the
park and greets her by reciting the 2,514th poem from the Man'yōshū Japanese
poetry collection, the correct response to her tanka, which he found in a
classic Japanese literature textbook.
なるかみの,すこしとよみて,
ふらずとも,
わはとどまらむ,
いもしとどめば
[A faint clap of thunder,
Even if rain comes or not,
I will stay here,
Together with you.]
