The 41st episode of the NHK morning drama " Anpan " starring Mio Imada(General Asadora , Monday to Saturday at 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on May 26th, and the words left by Hiroshi ( Yutaka Takenouchi) just before he passed away became a hot topic among viewers.
In episode 41, Hiroshi, who gave up his day off to visit a neighboring village, suddenly collapses and falls into a critical condition. Takashi (Takumi Kitamura), who is immersed in his graduation project, receives a telegram saying, "I'm going home soon," but Takashi mutters, "I can't go home yet. I can't face my uncle until I finish this," and continues working.
After staying up all night to finish his graduation project, Taka rushes to the Yanai family home in Kochi, but Hiroshi has already passed away. Takashi is filled with regret and repeatedly apologizes, saying, "I'm sorry, uncle," and cries. Then Chiyoko (Naho Toda) says, "Hiroshi isn't angry, is he?" and tells Takashi the "will" that Hiroshi left before he died.
"If you don't finish it to the end... if you come at me half-heartedly... if you come at me half-heartedly... I'll hit you. This is the path that Takashi has chosen. This is the path that Takashi lives for. I won't forgive you for giving up. I won't forgive Takashi... Chihiro... for giving up."
With tears in her eyes, Chiyoko stroked Taka's back and said, "Hiroshi and Taka after all have a connection," and the two of them cried together.
In response to Hiroshi's final words, people on social media said things like, "I can't stop crying," "Dr. Hiroshi's last words. Taku's choice was not wrong," "He cared about Taku and Chihiro until the very end," "He was cool until the end...he was a truly generous man," and "He was uttering great quotes until just before he passed away."
