"Anpan" 100th episode: The lyrics of "Te no Hira wo Taiyou ni) are born

The 100th episode of the NHK morning drama " Anpan " (General Asadora , Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM and other times), starring Mio Imada , was broadcast on August 15th, and viewers responded to the development towards the end that hinted at the birth of " Te no Hira wo Taiyou ni."

In the 100th episode, the stage performance ends with success. A few days later, Takashi (Takumi Kitamura) seems to be in a daze for some reason. Takuya (Omori Motoki) comes over, wanting to work together again on a fun project. However, Takashi doesn't listen, and even when Nobu (Motoki Omori) tells him to give it a try, he refutes him, telling him not to interfere. Since then, the relationship between the two has been strained.

Meanwhile, Nobu has been helping out at Yagi's (Satoshi Tsumabuki) general store without telling Taka. One day, when Taka visits the store, he sees Nobu serving customers. "Nobu-chan... why..." Taka is confused, and Yagi explains, "He's been helping out for a while now. Nobu-san is working the equivalent of two people so that you can do what you like."

Nobu and Takashi returned home in the pouring rain. Takashi hugged Nobu and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry for causing you so much trouble, Nobu-chan." Nobu replied that he didn't think it was a hardship, saying, "It just so happens that the manga you're drawing isn't selling right now, right? If that's the case, why don't you try anything?" and "I don't think manga is the only way to make people happy," to which Takashi nodded.

As the two were wiping each other's wet bodies, lightning struck nearby, plunging the room into darkness. Nobu switched on the flashlight and covered the light with his hand. Showing his glowing red hand to Taka, Nobu laughed and said, "Look, I'm bleeding." Taka also shone the flashlight on his hand and muttered, "If you look at the palm of your hand, you can see that my blood is flowing bright red..."

The 100th episode came to a close with the station's announcer, Risa Hayashida , narrating the show, saying, "Oh...this poem...If you look at it, you'll see!"

The words Takashi uttered were part of the lyrics to " Te no Hira wo Taiyou ni ni" (Put Te no Hira wo Taiyou ni on the Sun), written by Takashi Yanase Yanase. On social media, people were saying things like, "Is this the moment when Te no Hira wo Taiyou ni was born? I'm looking forward to next week," "Who Takashi Yanase wrote the lyrics! 'Anpanman March' is a cheerful song, but when you learn the meaning, it turns out to be a song with depth," and "Is this the start of Takashi's success?"
