The 13th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on April 16th. In the episode, the manga submitted by Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) to a newspaper company was selected, and it has received a lot of attention from viewers.
In the 13th episode, Nobu (Imada) participated in the bread-eating race, but finished in first place, but was disqualified. In front of Nobu, who was dejected, Takashi was extremely angry about being disqualified. Seeing him like that, Nobu realized that Takashi had given up his place in the bread-eating race.
At that moment, Chihiro (Motoki Nakazawa), who had been promoted to first place, appears and hands over the radio to Nobu. In the morning, Nobu teaches radio exercises to her family and the neighborhood children. Nobu discovers her dream of becoming a school teacher and begins studying hard to go to a women's normal school.
At the end of the story, when Takashi comes home, Chihiro comes running up to him and says, "Brother! It's a big deal. You submitted your manga to a newspaper a while ago, right? The results have just arrived." Takashi replies with a lack of confidence, "It's okay now. I don't want to be disappointed," to which Chihiro replies, "Then I'll open it," and opens the envelope.
When Chihiro told him, "You've been selected, bro. You'll get a 10 yen exchange prize!", Taka was so surprised he said, "What?" and nearly collapsed on the spot. Chihiro supported Taka and showed him the results, saying, "Look," to which Taka muttered, "No way."
On social media, comments included, "Congratulations to Takashi on being selected!", "Can Takashi see his future now?", "Selected!! Takashi's future is moving forward too!", "I guess Chihiro discovered her brother's talent before anyone else", and "I wonder what kind of manga he wrote."
