◇The following contains spoilers
" UNBOUND (Berabou)" is the 64th taiga drama and depicts the life of Tsutaya Juzaburo(or "Tsutajyu" for short), who is said to have laid the foundations for Japan's media industry and pop culture. The script was written by Yoshiko Morishita, who is known for her work on the highly talked-about "Drama 10: Ooku," which aired on NHK two years ago.
In the 32nd episode, the three main families submit a letter of recommendation recommending Sadanobu (played by Inoue Yuki) as the new senior councilor, but the Tanuma faction's Mizuno Tadatomo (played by Komatsu Kazushige) and Matsudaira Yasufuku (played by Aijima Kazuyuki) work hard to get Okitsugu(played by Ken Watanabe) back from his suspension, and Okitsugu is once again allowed to enter the castle. Meanwhile, Tsutae (played by Yokohama) visits Shinnosuke (played by Inowaki Kai) and learns that relief rice has been distributed.
Tsutae says that it is because Okitsugu's measures have been successful, but the residents of the tenement house are bombarded with anger and resentment towards him for having gained advantages during Tanuma's time...and so the story unfolds.
