"Omusubi" is the NHK morning drama series starring Hashimoto Kanna, which will begin airing in the second half of 2024 on September 30th. The heroine, born in 1989, is a powerful "Heisei youth graffiti" who always values her individuality with the "gal spirit" in her heart. There are 6 days left until the show starts. Here, we introduce Majima Ruri, also known as "Ruuri", played by Miricham.
◇Current General Representative of Hagaren, a group formed by "legendary gals"
Ruuri is the older sister of the main character Yui (Hashimoto), and is the current general representative of the "Hakata Gal Union" (abbreviated as Hagaren), which was formed by Yoneda Ayumu (Naka Riisa), known as the "legendary gal" in Fukuoka. She is aiming to revive Hagaren.
Mirichiam, who plays Ruuri, was selected from the largest "young audition" ever. This is her first time appearing in a morning drama.
◇A morning drama starting in the Heisei era for the first time in four works - who will sing the theme song and narrate it?
The drama is an original work by screenwriter Nemoto Nonji, known for NHK's "Honest Real Estate," among others. The theme song is "Illumination" by "B'z," and is said to be a powerful song that will add excitement to the world of the story of the protagonist who encounters gal culture.
The main story will be narrated by illustrator and actor Lily Franky, and the Saturday edition will be narrated by the station's announcer Takase Kozo. This will be the first morning drama to be set mainly in the Heisei era in four works, since "Maiagare!" in the second half of 2022.
The drama will be broadcast on NHK General TV from September 30th, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 a.m. and other channels.
