"Anpan" Episode 123 Nobu visits Yam-on-chan

The 123rd episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM and other times), starring Mio Imada, was broadcast on September 17th, and Nobu (Imada) and Ranko ( Yuumi Kawai) visited "Yam-on-chan"Sokichi Yamura(Sadao Abe), who became a hot topic among viewers.

In episode 123, preparations for the musical begin, with Nobu supporting the busy Takashi (Takumi Kitamura). With the help of Meiko (Nanoka Hara) and Kentaro (Fumiya Takahashi), things are progressing smoothly. Takuya (Motoki Omori), who is playing the piano and adding arrangements to the song, hums Takashi's lyrics.

Three months later, with the show fast approaching, ticket sales are poor. Nobu has an idea and calls Ranko, asking her to take him somewhere.

Afterwards, Nobu and Ranko visit Kusakichi. "What are you here for?" Kusakichi is surprised, and Nobu bows, saying, "I have a favor to ask of you, Yamu-onchan." Ranko sees Nobu and hurriedly bows, saying, "Ah." Kusakichi then interrupts Ranko, saying, "You just looked next to you and bowed at the same time." Episode 123 ends with Nobu once again asking Kusakichi, "Please lend me your strength!"

Comments on social media included, "Yam-onchan is the one to go to when you're in a pinch," "What would you ask Yam-onchan for?", "He probably visited to increase the audience for the musical, but what is he planning to ask for?", "Is Yam-onchan going to become a real-life Uncle Jam? Maybe Anpan out bean buns?", "He looked next to him and bowed his head lol," "Yam-san's comment to Ranko lol," and "It reminded me Extremely Inappropriate! of sulking lol."
