The 79th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " starring Kanna Hashimoto was broadcast on January 22nd, during which a theft occurred at "Girlies", a second-hand clothing store run by Chanmika (Rena Matsui), garnering attention from viewers.
In the 78th episode (broadcast on January 22nd), Chanmika, wanting to cheer up Ayumi ( Riisa Naka), who had been depressed since the Great East Japan Earthquake, asks her boyfriend Tar-kun (Nagashima Shugo) to organize a group date.
In the 79th episode, Ayumu was planning to go on a date with Mitamura (Nanase Ko), a friend of Tar-kun whom she met at a group date, but she canceled and returned to Girlies. During the group date, Ayumu, who had doubts about Mitamura's words and actions, told Chanmika, "I think that Mitamura is a liar."
However, Chanmika was furious at Ayu for not only being suspicious of Mitamura but also of Tar-kun, saying, "Just because you're irritated, you're going to criticize other people's happiness." She raised her voice and the atmosphere became tense. "Ayu, you've always been weird. You're denying the gals too. That's like denying our lives," she said.
A few days later, a thief breaks into Girlies and steals about 1 million yen worth of vintage denim and the money in the safe. Ayumu suspects Tar-kun, but Chanmika rebels and explodes in anger, saying, "I thought Ayu was my best friend... I never want to see her again! Don't ever come to my house again!"
While the criminal's footsteps remain unclear, Himiko (Ikebata Shinnosuke), who is staying at the Yoneda house, calls everyone in the house into the living room. And then, "We've found the real criminal behind the robbery at the second-hand clothing store Girlies. The criminal is... among us," and the 79th episode ends.
On social media, comments included, "Is Tar-kun and his friends the culprits?", "If Tar-kun is the culprit, he's gone beyond the realm of a bad guy", "It's not good to jump to conclusions yet", "ChanMika...even when you're in your late twenties, there aren't many people who will genuinely get angry at you...I know this is painful to hear, but please take good care of Ayumu...", "Maybe ChanMika just doesn't have luck with men", and "Detective Himiko has started lol."
