The 49th 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 5th, and viewers responded to a scene in which Takashi's ( Takumi Kitamura) mother, Tomiko (Nanako Matsushima), hurls some harsh words at him before he leaves for war.

In the 49th episode, Nobu (Imada) speaks brave words to a worried student whose brother has received a red card. However, Jiro's (Ayumu Nakajima) ​​words are bothering him and he is shaking inside. And finally, Takashi receives a red card. Before going to war, Takashi goes to see his teacher Zama (Koichi Yamadera), and afterwards, the three of them, including Tomiko, meet at a cafe in Ginza.

When Taka expresses his anxiety, "I wonder if I could make it in the military," Tomiko replies, "Of course it's impossible. Taka has been timid since he was a child, and can't even kill a bug, so of course there's no way he could fight in a war. He has no physical strength, no willpower, and no perseverance, and if he went to the battlefield, his legs would shake and he wouldn't be able to take a single step."

When Taka asked, "Isn't there anything else you have to say?" Tomiko replied, "Did you want me to say something like, I pray for your continued good fortune in battle?" "As a mother, I know. People like you are the least suited to be a soldier," she asserted.

When Takashi said, "Is that what you say to your son who is about to serve his country?" and "That's always the case, mother. She only thinks about herself. She says what she wants to say and that's it. I'll talk to you about it later, teacher." Tomiko then said, "Goodbye," and left the place. Takashi said, "My mother is always like that. She's selfish, or maybe she's a genius at hurting her son..." and apologized to Zama.

On social media, people were saying things like, "She's really trashing him, but it's because she just wants him to be alive," "I'm laughing at her criticism lol," "I think it's the other side of saying 'come back alive'," "I could feel her utmost love for Takashi," and "This time she's right."
