" Anpan " (NHK Asadora drama series starring Mio Imada ) (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 am and others). On July 12th, we will look back on the 15th week "Let's go! Tokyo" (July 7-11).
" Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013) and Nobu (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 to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
In the 15th week, Nobu (Imada) has a long-awaited reunion with Takashi (Takumi Kitamura), who has come to take the employment exam for the Kochi Shimpo newspaper.
Meanwhile, when a hole appears in the next day's newspaper, Taka is brought to the editorial office late at night, where he fills it in with an illustration as instructed, and is successfully hired. Later, on the submission day for the first issue of "Monthly Kujira", Taka draws a manga with great enthusiasm, becoming a savior once again, and is transferred to the "Monthly Kujira" editorial department to work with Nobu.
Soon, Nobu, Taka, Tokairin (played by Kenjiro Tsuda) and Iwashimizu (played by Yuki Kura) go on a business trip to Tokyo. Their purpose is to meet and interview a female congresswoman who is known as the "Queen of the Underpass." They have a hard time finding her... and so the story unfolds.
