" Bakebake" is the 113th morning Asadora. Based on the life of Yakumo Koizumi(Lafcadio Hearn) and his wife Setsu, the story follows the heroine, who loves ghost stories, as she lives her ordinary, everyday life with her foreign husband. The story is not based on an original novel, but is an original work by screenwriter Mitsuhiko Fujiki, who has worked on NHK's drama "Asagaya Sisters' Relaxed Life" and WOWOW's "Shooting Break Series."
In episode 16, a few days after Den's (Shinichi Tsutsumi) death, the weaving factory is scheduled to close, leaving Toki (Takaishi) without a job. Debt collector Moriyama (Iwatani Kenji) relentlessly demands repayment from the Matsuno family and suggests that Toki become a prostitute. While the Matsuno family members remain carefree, believing that everything will work out somehow, Ginjiro (Kanichiro) is the only one who feels a sense of crisis.
In order to protect Toki, Ginjiro asks Moriyama to introduce him to more work, but he ends up working from morning till morning, which puts a considerable strain on him. Scene cuts have also been released.
