EP 1Cheerful Kid
6 Jul 2014After punching an elderly man (the curator of the exhibition) in the face for insulting his calligraphy, Seishu Handa is unofficially exiled to a small village on an island near Kyushu where he plans to improve his craft. Seishu has trouble dealing with the culture shock of the village compared to his Tokyo upbringing: the people speak with strange accents, the house arranged for him has technology from decades ago, and a small girl considers the home to be her "base." Despite Seishu's attempts to kick her out, the little girl (Naru) keeps finding ways inside and pestering Seishu, even using his calligraphy brush and paper. After arguing with Naru for a bit, he suddenly realizes what the curator meant when he said his calligraphy was too textbook-like. Later that day, Seishu is briefly introduced to several of the villagers as they gather to help him move in the rest of his belongings from Tokyo. (Source: Wikipedia)
EP 2Noisy
13 Jul 2014The episode opens with the wife of the village chief asking her son to carry some food to Seishu, as no one else in the family bothers to eat her cooking. Meanwhile, two of Naru's friends come with Naru to revisit their "base" in Seishu's new house, but Seishu gets angry and kicks them all out. Later, the son of the village chief, Hiroshi, delivers his mom's cooking but finds that Seishu has worked himself near death. Naru arrives in time to save Hiroshi and the food, and shows Hiroshi the effort that Seishu puts into his work. The next day, Naru arrives to find Seishu collapsed from exhaustion, and he is rushed to the hospital where he is jokingly warned not to make any moves on the nurse because she's already married. After a brief scare with a near-empty IV bag, Naru holds the nurse call button tight and pledges to protect Seishu from a ghost. Seishu sees Naru and her friends off and gets some advice from an elderly patient in the hospital, but when he is discharged the next day, Seishu is told that he was the only patient there.

EP 3Rice Cakes Thrown at Celebrations
20 Jul 2014Naru believes she's become more "adult" as she is better able to read kanji. Seishu goes to get some more ink from the village's general store and finds that Naru's friend Tamako also wants the ink as she plans to use it for a manga she wants to submit to a shounen magazine. Seishu offers to read her draft copy, only to find that the story is very inappropriate, but Tamako is convinced it will be unique and bestselling. That night, Tamako decides to go tell Seishu an excuse before he thinks she's a "fujoshi," but ends up witnessing what she sees as a yaoi-inspired scene between Seishu and Hiroshi and forgets all about her original mission. The next day, Seishu receives word that his calligraphy contest entry only received second place compared to another entrant five years younger than him. In an attempt to cheer him up, Naru and her friends drag her to a mochi-catching contest in honor of a new boat that was built by Kenta's father. Seishu has trouble seeing the point when everyone else outmuscles him for the mochi, when one old woman advises him to wait for the opportunities in front of him instead of fighting the others. Later, he returns home to find that one of the top mochi-catchers made a mochi-based soup for him and the other villagers. (Source: Wikipedia)
EP 4Men of the Island
27 Jul 2014Seishu finds that both his computer and cell phone have stopped working, so he decides to go to the village's general store to make a call. Along the way, he stops at a house where stray cats gather to lift his spirits. The man of the house hands Seishu a stray cat to hold, which then scratches him. Seishu discovers that he's allergic to cats, and then continues walking to the store where Naru, Hina, and Tamako's brother Akki are hanging out. Seishu asks to borrow the phone only to discover that it is an old rotary phone and Akki has to help him use it. After calling his agent, Seishu is so busy thinking about the next contest he plans to enter that he knocks over a basket of seaweed belonging to Miwa's father. He uses the incident to persuade Seishu to write a long phrase in kanji as the name of his new boat. Seishu panics at having to write without his usual tools or flat surface, but after Naru and her friends stick handprints to the hull, Seishu has no choice but to write over them. Miwa's father is impressed and gives him the seaweed as payment, only to grow angry again when he discovers that Seishu practiced writing on wooden boards he was going to use. (Source: Wikipedia)
EP 5Going Swimming at the Beach
3 Ago 2014While Seishu is pondering what to write for an upcoming contest, Naru's grandfather visits with a large bag of konomon (pickled daikon radish) as a gift. Seishu instantly gets hooked on the snack and suddenly can't think of anything else. When Naru, Miwa and Tamako come over and ask for help with their writing homework, Seishu tries to impress upon them his own calligraphy training routine, but the girls aren't as interested. Later, the village chief invites Seishu to watch the children as they go down to the beach. Miwa, Tamako, and even Hiroshi decide to tag along. To Seishu's dismay, the "beach" is actually a rocky shore with no sand in sight, but the children immediately run down and jump in the ocean. Seishu tries to follow them but slips on a slick rock and bangs his head, knocking himself out repeatedly. Seishu walks back home, muttering to the group that he was actually caring about their safety. The village children (sans Hiroshi) decide to embrace him. After resting at his home, Seishu misses a call from his agent, who is at the nearby airport along with a younger calligrapher in tow. (Source: Wikipedia)
EP 6The Guys from Tokyo
10 Ago 2014Seishu's agent and only real friend Takao shows up drunk at his house with prodigal calligrapher Kosuke Kanzaki carrying him. Upon realizing that Kosuke is the younger calligrapher who beat Seishu in a previous contest, Miwa and Hiroshi try to get him to leave. Naru inadvertently helps out by giving Kosuke a ball full of stinkbugs, which he breaks open. As Kousuke and Takao leave, Seishu tells the others that he knew who Kosuke was, but already moved on. The next day, Kosuke visits Seishu's house and shows him all the magazines and interviews that Seishu did in the past as his inspiration, though Seishu feels only embarrassment when he hears his own lines read back to him. Kousuke begs him to return to Tokyo with him, saying that Seishu's art has gone downhill since he came to the island. Seishu has another breakdown, as he feels unable to reconcile writing for a prize with writing for his own satisfaction, when Naru and Hina start throwing paper planes made from the pages of Kosuke's magazines. After that brief interruption, Seishu reiterates his decision to stay in the village for now. Later, Seishu finds that the magazine pages with his interviews have spread across the village as the villagers all line up at his door for an autograph. (Source: Wikipedia)
