The 11th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others) was broadcast on April 14th. In this episode, Sara Shida, who plays Ogawa Usako, a classmate and childhood friend of the heroine Nobu (Imada), made her first appearance, attracting the attention of viewers.
In the 11th episode, Nobu is in her 5th year at a girls' high school in 1935. At that time, it was common for girls to get married as soon as they graduated, and Nobu's classmates at school are excited about marriage. Seeing this, Usako smiles and says, "Nobu-chan, I can't afford to be complacent either. I need you to find a partner soon," and asks, "Do you think you'll find a partner by the time you graduate next year?"
Nobu replied, "I've never found the dream I've been looking for since I was little," to which Usako expressed concern, "What? A dream? What will you do if you can't find the right partner? Is that okay at your house, Nobu-chan?"
When Shida made her appearance, comments such as "I'm happy to be able to see Sara Shida in the morning", "Sara Shida is lovely in the role of Usako-chan", "Usako-chan is really cute", "Sara Shida, who I remember for her excellent role as Iemochi in Ooku, is appearing in Anpan", "Her acting is great so I can watch it with ease", and "I think Sara Shida will be the heroine of a Asadora one day" were posted on social media.
