Mio Imada stars in the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan" (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others). In the 25th week of "Kaiketsu Anpanman" that begins on September 15th, a new character, Mano Goro, will be played by Irei Kanata.
Mano Goro is a famous director who directs the musical "Anpanman."
Irei Kanata, who plays Mano Goro, is also known for playing Takafuji Masanobu, a former businessman from the Satsuma domain, in the Asadora"Ranman" (first half of 2023) two years ago.
Takato plays the role of a man who falls in love at first sight with the heroine Sueko (played by Minami Hamabe) and becomes the love rival of the main character Mantaro (played by Ryunosuke Kamiki). He is nicknamed "Yaba Fuji" for his character's moral harassment-like nature. What kind of acting will he show us in this Asadora again?
"Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013), the manga artist and picture book author who created "Anpanman," and his wife, Nobu (1918-1993). It is a "story of love and courage" that will fill you with the joy of living, depicting how these two, who were once nobodys, overcame all sorts of rough seas to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
