Regarding your conclusion on why Taichi is persistent in reaching Kohei, after I read the manga, I think Taichi's intention is pretty simple: he wants some food. LOL At first he wanted lunch bentos (especially after being fired from his previous job), but after "befriending" Kohei, he's getting attached and afraid being abandoned (like his parents did). I don't think Taichi see Kohei as lonely person or someone who needs his help (personally). Afterall, he doesn't see hearing impaired, deaf and hearing-abled differently. He become a note taker only for the meals (initially).
3:26 I think the subtitles are wrong. Not the old people, but the deaf people correctly.
Thank you for your reaction!! I
