Ginnikan Ep. 6: Drama Notes
Ep. 6: "Both Our Dream"
Episode Synopsis: Otetsu has admitted she is Maho but has to keep the identity of Otetsu in order not to upset Ohiro, the dango-maker.

Matsukichi also learns that her father and grandpa did not make it out alive from that fire. Maho makes him promise that they won't see each other anymore. He also promises Maho he will make a firmer agar which Kahei was looking for before he died, as a way to honor him. So he asks Wasuke to let him go to the agar factory to try and come up with a new type of agar, and is allowed. He sets for the agar factory with high hopes... Meanwhile in his absence, Umekichi continues on with the side jobs to help augment their income since the agar business is still put on hold.

Matsukichi has come to help him with the business, and to make firmer agar as well. Months later, and through constant hard work, Matsukichi looks at the agar he was making and...
