Ougai openly admits to his aunt, who has brought him photos of possible marriageable young women, that Mei is his fiancée; and, he also states his intent to formally present her as such at a party being held at the Rokumeikan the following month. Sensing Mei distress at this, Ougai invites her out on a date to Asakusa. After being escorted around Meiji era Asakusa, Mei seems to brighten in spirit. However, while out on their date Mei is faced with a beautiful girl who clearly is one of the hopefuls for Ougai's hand.
I will never forget the moon 
on this night, even if I die.
Nunca olvidaré la luna
de esta noche, aunque muera.
Nunca olvidaré la luna
de esta noche, aunque muera.
La splendente luna di questa notte
vivrà per sempre nei miei ricordi.
Eu nunca vou esquecer da lua
desta noite, mesmo que eu morra.
Я никогда не забуду этой луны, даже после смерти.
