Tomoya Okazaki, Akio Furukawa and others in “Graduation”

Old Man...

Sure is coming down hard. Guess it's another rainy autumn, huh? [Sanae stands by Nagisa's side.] Hit or miss, this is the last pitch you're gonna get. Ready? [Tomoya nods affirmatively then gets in his batting stance. Akio pitches the ball, in which Tomoya finally hits.]

Tomoya!

Home run! [Tomoya then runs over towards Akio and gets on his hands and feet.]

Give me Nagisa's hand in marriage! [Long pause. Akio then responds]

Look at that. Just like me when I was that age.

Really honey, I've known you two were alike since I first met him. You're two of a kind.

I was in a hurry to grow up, even though I didn't know why. Guess kids never learn, do they? [Nagisa comes to Tomoya's side]

All the more reason you should understand.

[To Tomoya] Pick your head up. [He does so] If you ever make my little girl suffer, then I'm taking her back from you. You don't want to test me on that, kid.

Then...you mean...?

Thank you, dad! [Akio walks away to pick up his umbrella]

Tomoya, Nagisa isn't just our daughter, she's our hope. So I want you to know that today on you're part of that hope, too. So never forget that your happiness is our happiness as well. In other words, try your best to be happy, okay?
