Omusubi:Viewers are excited by the unexpected reappearance of this character, with comments such as "I never thought he'd appear in this way" and "What an incredible twist to wrap up."

The 120th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " starring Kanna Hashimoto (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on March 21. In the episode, a person who Yui (Hashimoto) was involved with in her high school days reappeared, which became a hot topic among viewers.

In episode 120, Yui's (Hashimoto) colleague was watching a video of a calligraphy influencer who answers any problem his viewers have with a single kanji character. When Yui was shown the video, a man was seen winking and saying, "This kanji character was inspired by what you asked me to write," writing the character "nin" (sin), and saying, "I'll give you this calligraphy." The man was Yui's calligraphy club senior, Kazami (Matsumoto Reo), who Yui had a crush on in high school, and who went by the pen name "Kazami Ryozan." Yui was so surprised that she shouted out, "Kazami senpai!"

At the end of the video, Kazami says, "If you're into calligraphy...", and immediately afterwards, a commercial for honey called "Otake Special Honey" plays. In the video, Otake (played by Sota Kuwano), the calligraphy club president who has become the president of a beekeeping farm, appears and says, "We have a really big hornet's nest in our house, but while I'm watching the really big hornet's nest by myself, I can get a lot of honey..." but Yui doesn't seem to notice Otake at all.

In the 13th episode (broadcast on October 16, 2024), when Yui and Kazami were alone in the clubroom, Director Otake came over and invited them, "I have a huge hornet's nest at my house. Do you want to come and see it?", making an impact on viewers.

Regarding the reappearance of Kazami-senpai and Department Head Otake, comments were made on social media such as, "I was surprised to see familiar faces," "I was so happy to see Kazami-senpai and the department head make an appearance, even if only briefly!" "I never thought they'd appear like this," "It's good that both Kazami-senpai and Department Head Suzumebachi are enjoying life to the fullest," and "What an incredible twist to tie up all the loose ends."
