Asadora"Anpan" traces historical facts

The 70th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 AM and others) was broadcast on July 4th, and viewers were drawn to the developments towards the end of the series.

" Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013) and Nobuyuki (1918-1993), the manga artist and picture book writer who created "Anpanman." It is a "story of love and courage" that will make you feel the joy of living, depicting how these two, who were once nobody, overcame all sorts of rough seas and arrived at "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."

In the 70th episode, Meiko (Nanoka Hara), who has come to live with Nobu (Imada), takes a step towards her dream. And Nobu also starts to work on publishing the monthly magazine in earnest. Two months later, the preparations for the first issue are in full swing, and Nobu is not only doing interviews and writing articles, but also selling advertisements.

One day, Kotoko (Yui Narumi) follows Nobu as she goes out to make a difficult advertising sales pitch... A few days later, Nobu is called in to help with the company's entrance exam, and is shocked to see the nervous-looking Takashi (Takumi Kitamura) at the exam venue.

On social media, viewers responded to Nobu and Taku's reunion with comments such as, "What, Taku?!", "Taku!", "Taku shows up without any twists" @Taku arriving late is so Taku-like lol." Furthermore, since in real life the place where Yanase and his wife first met was the newspaper company, comments such as "The real story where Taku meets the heroine has finally arrived...", "In real life, this is where Taku and Nobu meet, so I'm excited and nervous... I can't wait for next week", "Finally the real story route", "In real life, they first met at the publishing company, right? We've finally made it there!" and "No way, I'm getting all excited." were also posted.
