The 48th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on June 4th. Towards the end of the episode, Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) received a telegram, the contents of which drew the attention of viewers.
In episode 48, Nobu (Imada) and Jiro (Ayumu Nakajima) visit the Asada family. On the way back, Nobu tells Jiro what he wants to do when the war is over. After a brief, enjoyable time together, the day of Jiro's departure arrives. Nobu asks Jiro if there's something he hasn't told him.

Meanwhile, in Tokyo, Taka receives a telegram. After checking the telegram in his room, he stands there in a daze, and the 48th episode ends with him.
The contents of the telegram were not displayed on the screen, but the words "Akagami Kita Sugukahere" were faintly visible through the light.
On social media, people were saying things like, "What a disturbing ending," "It's finally gotten to be too much," "I can't take it," "It's cruel to drive people to the battlefield," and "I paused the telegram and tilted my head to check what it said."
