Social media was abuzz with the topic of Takimasa (Kyouya Honda) fantasising about Natsumi (Yoshine) in a totally different light.
◇The following contains spoilers
The drama is based on the manga of the same name (by Nishika Hachi) currently being serialized on the manga app "Comic DAYS." It depicts the love story that begins in 1936, when Natsumi, who was suddenly proposed to and married on zero days after dating, and Ebata Takimasa, who works for the Imperial Navy, begin their married life together.
"I could have done it better with Seta-kun," says Takimasa, who has just returned home after two months away. He hears from Natsumi (Yoshine) about her childhood friend Seta (Komiya Rio).
Remembering the words of his colleague Fukami (Yuta Koseki), "There are stories that wives fall in love with other men during long voyages," Takimasa fantasizes about Natsumi being told by Seta to "come to me." "Natsumi, you can't be...!" he exclaims, unable to stop fantasizing.
Afterwards, Takimasa was seen feeling agonized as he imagined Natsumi cooking for Seta and resting her head on his lap.
On social media, comments such as, "It's cute how Takitakacho fantasizes that Natsumi has feelings for his childhood friend," "Takimasa's fantasies are so funny," "It's adorable how he can't help but think about Seta, but can't ask him clearly," "It's heartwarming to see the innocent feeling between the two of them," "Isn't he just too cool...Takimasa?" and "I wanted to watch a drama that would make my heart flutter like this."
