"Anpan" Episode 115: Teshima Osamu's workplace is "off-limits to men and women"? Viewers are shocked by his strictness

The 115th episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 AM and other times), starring Mio Imada , was broadcast on September 5th, and included a scene in which Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) visits the workplace of the genius manga artist Teshima Osamu (Gordon Maeda), which became a hot topic among viewers.

In episode 115, Taka visits Teshima's workplace. As soon as he enters the entrance, he sees a sign that reads "No men or women allowed," to which Teshima explains, "You're probably surprised at how small it is. No men or women allowed here."

Teshima said, "For a manga artist, the workplace is a sacred space, so no one has ever been allowed in until now. I felt that only Yanai-san would understand that this is a sacred space..." and gave permission for him to enter. Taka bowed his head and said, "I'm honored."

The phrase "no men or women allowed" that appeared in this scene drew attention, with comments on social media such as "I've never seen that phrase before," "That's a crazy statement," "No one can enter!", "A sanctuary, a divine domain," "As expected of Teshima Osamu," "Is Taka the only one who can enter the sanctuary? Amazing," and "He really does approve of Taka."
