I'm not...
going home.
Really?
I'll always be...
by your side.
The one who will be leaving is you.
No hard feelings.
You...
Uwajima Masaya, you are under arrest.
On a different planet, my life span of...
four hundred years was the limit.
If I stay here, not long from now, I'm...
going to die.
Even so, staying close to her, I want to live my life with her.
Ahh, the air is so delicious.
Everything tastes better, doesn't it?
The whole earth is a feast.
Ya-hoo!
Toyama Mitsuru!
I love you!
You're not shy, are you?
I'm not embarrassed anymore.
Sensei, you do it too.
I'm fine.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Now, with a cute face.
Say "Cheese".
Yeah, it's a cute shot.
You're not going to get sick like this, are you?
No.
I came here today to thank the gods.
It's unusual for you to thank anyone.
The last time I was here was when I was having trouble at work.
So I asked God for help.
"Please let me meet the man who saved me from an accident a long time ago."
"Then I'll be able to do my best."
GOOD LUCK Takataki Shrine
Sensei, go ahead and write it down.
Yeah.
Hmm?
"In Sound Health" (mis-pronounced)
I see. Typical of sensei.
It's "In Sound Health" (correct pronounciation)
Well, that's one way to say it.
Now, my turn.
Aim!!! 100 Years old!!! May I live long !!!! Sasahara Tsubaki ♥
The average life expectancy of a Japanese woman today is approximately 88 years.
You're greedy, wanting to live to be 100.
Because sensei lives a tremendously long life.
I should live a very, very long time too, right?
Perhaps you will live longer.
Because people with less stress live longer.
Look here.
How many photos do you have to take before you're satisfied?
Hmm? Just today...
Two hundred and fifty?
Oh, I have to take a video too.
I think we should head back to the hotel.
Hey.
Where is your home planet?
From here...
you can't see it.
You came a long way.
This little island country...
These are my feelings,
please accept it!
That's too forceful.
From now onwards,
the future that you imagined...
together, let's make it happen.
Sasahara Tsubaki,
will you accept it?
Every year...
in the summer...
let's come here together.
That won't be possible.
I'm saying goodbye to you today.
Well, it was interesting being with an alien, that's for sure.
But I have lost interest now. I'm satisfied.
The same as you, when you wanted to be close to me when I was famous.
I mean, it's not practical to live with an alien, right?
You will stay young while I grow into an old woman?
I don't think I could bear with that.
Reiko-san's death is no longer my fault.
I've been getting all kinds of job offers lately.
So I... decided.
I'm going to marry Hiroya.
He's been through a lot with his brothers.
If I marry him now, my reputation will take off.
It's good for him too.
It's no loss for both of us.
Are you serious?
I am serious.
You've only been with me three months.
We've known each other about 100 days.
But Hiroya supported me for 15 years.
You helped me, with my brother's case...
I'm sorry.
The other day you were talking about returning home, right?
For me too, I have come to realize that the most important person to me...
was Hiroya.
Even though the time we had together was brief,
I was happy.
Good-bye.
Hiroya, let's go home.
Yes.
I've known him (fiancé) for a really long time.
I've thought about him for many years...
That's why I wanted to respond to his feelings.
He is undoubtedly...
my soulmate.
Are you happy now?
Yes.

Tonight at last,
for the first time in 400 years, Moore's comet,
will be visible to the naked eye.
The long-awaited...
celestial show of the century is about to begin.
Finally, you're leaving tonight, aren't you?
I know it must be hard for you, but I'm relieved.
Flowers on their roots,
birds in their former nests.
Things all go back to where they belong.
I want sensei to stay alive and healthy wherever you live.
Yeah.
And while I'm alive,
there'll be a non-zero chance that I might run into you again someday.
You never know what's gonna happen in your life.
I learned that 30 years ago, on that day.
I failed the bar exam for the fourth time that day.
I didn't have the energy to live. I didn't have any money.
I was about to jump off a building.
You were a lawyer, and you stumbled across me, and you saved my life.
Take it.
You can pay me back after you pass the bar.
That's a lot of money...
I generally avoid associating myself with other people.
However...
fate brought us together.
Sensei...
I'm in your debt! I'm going to study so hard like my life depended on it.
Next year, I will definitely pass the exam. Thank you very much.
Thank you very much!
To tell you the truth.
I don't want you to go, sensei.
A parent who outlives their child,
I wonder if this is how they feel.
You have been,
a great help,
and I thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you...
Sasahara Tsubaki is engaged to an IT company employee.
Hey, Peco-chan.
Something's up with Tsubaki-san, isn't it?
I think so. She doesn't look happy at all.
I even saw her crying.
She was crying so hard I couldn't even speak to her.
They even held a fancy engagement press conference...
Comet Moore will be visible to the naked eye,
in three more hours to go.
I want to talk to you about something.
Do you have a moment?
I wasn't sure if I should have come.
But,
I thought I'd regret it if I didn't.
Are you feeling indebted to me for marrying Sasahara Tsubaki?
Tsubaki is...
not marrying me.
What she told you...
was a lie for your sake
She lied for my sake?
Tsubaki thought you had been acting strange lately.
I have to go home. I just remembered something.
I'm sorry, but I need to be alone today.
She was worried about you.
She decided to do her own investigation.
Diary of my last 3 months on this earth
Independent investigation? More like invading my privacy.
Well, don't get mad, just listen.
In three months, the comet I've waited 400 years to see will arrive.
Now I can finally go home to my planet.
Today, the worst woman ever moved in next door.
She sang and made so much noise in the middle of the night that when I complained, she got very upset."
It was extremely unpleasant.
Hah, that time.
I've found someone who I don't ever want to forget.
The thought of losing her, would be unbearable.
32 more days until I return to the stars.
I want to stay close to Sasahara Tsubaki and watch over her.
But soon, my companions will be coming for me.
To live individually on a planet other than the one I was born,
400 years was the limit.
If I don't take this opportunity to return to my planet,
not long from now,
I will die.
You're going to die?
No way.
You're lying.
She knew you didn't have much longer to live.
So she called me.
10 days earlier
He needs to be out in the universe.
I just want him to live.
If he has to disappear from this world,
it would be better if I never see him again.
I want to send him home in the only way that I can.
So please, Hiroya.
I need your help.
The other day you were talking about returning home, right?
It's hard for me, too.
A woman as beautiful, as kind, as wonderful as you are...
does not exist on my planet.
It doesn't matter to me anymore...
you need to go.
Damn it! I really don't want you to go!
No!
You can stop this act if you want.
If I don't do it, he'll die...
I even stopped her from announcing this engagement too.
But she...
had to convince you, so she didn't listen.
Why are you...
telling me all of this?
Because it's absolutely wrong,
doing it this way.
For someone who loves you, to break up this way...
can you honestly be happy about this?
Now then...
I leave it up to you.
Comet Moore is due to arrive in one hour.
Countless shooting stars have begun to appear in the Tokyo night sky.
Aren't you busy with work?
Are you OK coming over here?
Hiroya-kun told me everything.
Hey, are you trying to start a party all by yourself?
Tonight...
I don't think I can get through it unless I get drunk...
I'll stay with you.
What?
Because...
I have more experience with heartbreak than you, senpai.
Hey!
If Tsubaki doesn't turn back into the high-flying, snobbish Sasahara Tsubaki,
I won't be motivated to try to keep up.
Yeah, that's right.
Come on, let's drink.
Here. Open it.
It's okay.
Wow!
Fifteen minutes until the comet arrives.
Yukino, you're making it harder.
It's going to be alright.
Aah.
I'll just be gone a minute.
Ahh~ It's too hard...
Stop time!
Ahh...
Tsubaki-chan.
You have a guest.
The liquor seems to kicking in faster today.
I'm hallucinating about sensei.
I'm real.
He's real.
I've been so busy lately. I have to go home and sleep.
I'm very popular.
See you later.
Your little scheme to get me to leave was really stupid.
You should reflect on that.
Because...
if you had stayed for me and died...
I knew I'd never forgive myself.
You lied to me.
It's been forever since someone shook me this way.
Ah.
I want to make a wish.
It's just a falling piece of rock.
Wishing won't make it happen.
You never know unless you wish for it.
Sasahara Tsubaki,
please listen carefully.
Yes.
No singing in front of people.
It's noisy, right?
I know.
Don't drink so much,
you have a habit of going into people's houses when you're drunk.
I'll drink in moderation.
And don't cook anymore.
No one else but me can eat that black stuff.
But it's not bad, is it?
Don't read comments on the Internet.
The only person who can really judge you...
is yourself.
I'll cheer myself up.
If your productions involve contact with the opposite sex...
By contact, do you mean kissing and hugging?
Yes.
In these shows,
only take the roles that you truly want to play.
I'm going to assume that...
the only contact is with you.
From here on out...
you will not see my star.
So, as you look at night sky,
wondering if I am on this planet or that planet,
don't cry for me.
I'll do my best...
Will I be able to do it?
But I...
and you...
Sasahara Tsubaki...
I love you.
I love you too.
You said it for the first time.
Tsubaki.
Please don't...
forget about me.
What are you talking about? I'm not stupid enough to forget you.
Ah...
Toyama Sensei?
What... no way!
We haven't even said goodbye yet.
Toyama Sensei!
Toyama Sensei...
3 years later
These three years... really flew by.
I was so busy filming and interviewing every day that I didn't have time to relax.
Besides being an actress, I'm also the president of my own company and employ my own staff.
And...
I have also started as a writer.
As expected of Tsubaki-san.
That play you just did... It was so heartfelt.
I almost cried out loud.
I can't believe you cried at that. Your tear glands are too weak.
So, what's next?
The Diary of my 100 days with an Alien Sasahara Tsubaki [The true story of my love from the stars]
You'll be signing autographs at Kinomotoya Bookstore.
This book is back in print and selling like hotcakes.
After all, 35 weeks in a row,
Over 1 million copies sold!
it was a no. 1 bestseller.
Well, all the royalties will be donated, so I won't get a single yen.
Peco, fix my makeup.
A writer needs to look intelligent and cool.
She first started a blog to drown out her sorrows.
And then it turned into a bestselling book.
She's terrible at being an influencer.
"Ill weeds grow apace"
Peco, Bata-yan, are you going to keep the boss waiting?
Yes! I'm coming!
Congratulations. Thank you.
Three years after the discovery of the asteroid...
It's finally been recognized as a new star.
Please tell us about the star you named and how you feel about it.
Yes, eh...
In naming the star,
I thought about what the Earth and the wonders of the universe were showing us ...
and so...
I named it after the man who was to become my brother-in-law.
The name of the new star is...
Mitsuruboshi (Mitsuru's Star)
Your book...
is selling like crazy on my shopping site.
I don't like the fact that it's with him, though.
My story with you wouldn't sell this well.
Aha...
Thanks to you, they're even talking about making a movie.
Oh, if you want to make a movie, I'll contribute to the financing.
We need to invest more in entertainment.
Does he have so much extra money?
That's because Hiroya-kun is doing so well.
Here.
He's so cool.
By the way, Yukino's drama started yesterday, right?
That's right. It's been really well-received.
Especially yesterday's scene that made me cry.
My performance has surpassed Tsubaki-chan's,
according to rave reviews on social media.
Who told you that nonsense?
Tsubaki-chan, haven't you seen my drama?
When will I have time for that? I'm really busy these days.
Oh Tsubaki-san, your eyes look swollen today, don't they?
What?
Oh, I was reading a script and didn't get enough sleep.
I'm home.
That's great. I came to pay you a visit.
Welcome back. You must be tired.
Oh, I'm so hungry! Do you have anything to eat?
I've got some fried chicken.
But, as your mom, is it really okay to let you eat greasy food at this hour?
It's okay. I've been moving around a lot, it'll be fine.
Come here, Mitsuru.
Have you been good?
He was a good boy. He's a great guard dog for us.
That's a good boy, Mitsuru. Hmm hmm.
I'm home.
It was because I missed him so much.
Around that time when I was alone, I kept going back to places that reminded me of him.
Toyama Sensei...
I want to see you.
It doesn't matter how, please come out.
Toyama Sensei!
What? A vision of sensei?
I thought I saw him right in front of me.
It's weird, isn't it?
No, actually, I too...
Ah...
Ah, it's so hot, I'm drying up.
It's been hot this year too.
S-Sensei!?
You even heard his voice?
I even visited a doctor.
I thought, "I'll never see him again."
It's the same kind of stress as talking to a person who is dying.
Father, you must have been very sad as well.
No, I'm not his father...
Please let me call you that.
Ah...
Oh, by the way, aren't you supposed to be at the awards ceremony tomorrow?
Yes... but to be honest, I'm not sure I'll get the award.
No, your performance was wonderful.
My wife went to the movie with me.
She said, "The reason she can act like that is because she had a great love life."
I was impressed.
If that's the case...
it's thanks to him.
The Tokyo Film Festival's Best Actress Award goes to...
Sasahara Tsubaki!
I'm home, Mitsuru.
Power outage?
Another hallucination...
and it's upgraded.
I'm real.
Real?
Really? The real Toyama Sensei?
I'm sorry.
I'm late.
This... this is from you?
A celebration...
just the two of us in a house with flowers...
right?
I'll never forget that day.
Right?
Since returning to my home planet three years ago, I've made several experimental visits to Earth.
The person she saw, and the person my friend saw, were not illusions.
I'm just relieved he's not sick.
After much trial and error, I've been here now for a year and two months.
Adapting to life here with a greater tolerance level.
We've even learned to eat together.
But I'm the cook.
When she cooks, you get a mysterious black object.
That's because it's an original creation.
What?
You're asking me if we can do more than kiss now?
That's a secret between us.
Oh, by the way, she did change one thing.
Hey, you can't pee here, Mitsuru.
Mitsuru, you really are an idiot.
Do you understand, Mitsuru?
Ah...
I was always feeling as if I'm being scolded, so...
His new name is...
"Mitch."
Today's plans are to watch a movie, get hungry, eat ramen noodles...
And then we'll go for a walk, and then I'll be hungry again, so we'll go to a dessert buffet...
You only make plans around when you'll be hungry.
Um...
Sasahara Tsubaki-san, right?
Yes, but...
That must mean... you're Toyama Mitsuru-sensei!
I'm a huge fan!
I really respect you for helping people so much.
Can I have your autograph?
Pen...
Toyama Sensei, please shake my hand too.
Uhm, Sasahara Tsubaki is here too.
Um, can we shake hands or something? Oh...
Hey, wait! Get in line, this way!
One line, one line!
As to how long I am able to stay, I do not know yet.
I've been approached by NASA and JAXA to collaborate with them.
I'll be discussing it with my support team back home.
It's beautiful isn't it?
Yeah.
It's beautiful...
I knew it was you.
Because it smelled so good.
I'm home.
Welcome home.
Life is not eternal.
You never know when you'll have to say goodbye to someone most important to you.
That's why I must make the most of my time...
and live to the fullest in these moments.
Side Story #10
What did I think about her book?
Of course, I read it.
There are some factual errors.
It says here, that I fell in love with her first.
But that's not the truth.
She was my student.
We were neighbors.
I just showed concern.
No, it's not.
For certain, he was the one who first fell in love with me.
And I have evidence to back it up.
It's written right here.
Why do you have that?
Your father, the lawyer, he kept it for you.
I can't believe you'd take that nonsense seriously.
Then what?
Does that mean what I've written is nonsense?
I didn't say that.
There's very little kanji, the writing is poor.
But this...
you're the only one who could have written it.
Is that a compliment?
Yeah, well, for you...
It's frank, honest, heartfelt, and well spelled out.
It deserves to be read.
Now give it back.
No, I won't give it back.
Give it back.
No, not on your life.
Give it back.
No!
I'm gonna stop time!
I tricked you.
Ha ha ha.
I thought it stopped.
We have reached the final episode of
"My Love From the Stars."
This time, we're showing the gorgeous cast
in the Crank-up.
We bring you a summary of what went on.
That was really great.
All up.
I'm going to point the camera this way...
Wow, that was really...
And here she is for the last time.
Yamamoto Mizuki as Sasahara Tsubaki, all up!
Good work!
Thank you so much for your hard work! Thank you very much.
Yeah!
It was hard work.
I didn't think it would be this hard.
No, but really... already, but...
After all this talking, all this crying, all this laughing...
It's so rewarding.
I'm really looking forward to seeing the edited version.
Thank you very much. -What was the most difficult part?
The set.
Fukushi-san...
filmed his last scene...
in unexpectedly heavy rain.
But the bad weather didn't stop him,
and went ahead with the shooting.
And now, with these cuts...
our own Toyama Mitsuru, played by
Fukushi Sota-san, all up!
Good work!
Thank you.
Thank you for your hard work. Thank you for your hard work...
I didn't think it would end this way...
Well, there was a situation with Corona.
and typhoons and rain... and now...
The reason we were able to get through such a tough shoot like this...
was really, Matsuki-san and Mizuno-san...
I think it's because of the help from you and your staff.
I think there's still a little bit more to come.
Good luck. Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you very much!
Thank you, boss!
In the pouring rain...
That's all up.
All-ups like this are rare.
