"Omusubi" Episode 46 Misae's "You're the captain!" call becomes a hot topic

The 46th episode of the NHK morning drama "Omusubi" starring Kanna Hashimoto was broadcast on December 2nd. In the episode, Misae (Midoriko Kimura) and others hummed a parody of the song "Anata ga Taisho" by the folk group Kaien-tai, which was composed of Tetsuya Takeda and others, and attracted the attention of viewers. In the 46th episode, it was decided that a "children's disaster prevention training" would be held during the summer vacation at Sakura-dori Shopping Street, where Hair Salon Yoneda is located. Wakabayashi (Shinya Niiro), a city hall employee in charge, came to Hair Salon Yoneda and distributed flyers to Yui (Hashimoto) and regular customers. Regarding the menu for the soup kitchen to be made on the day of the disaster prevention training, Wakabayashi suggested, "The kids say they're tired of pork soup and mixed rice every year. Let's try something more elaborate for this year's soup kitchen." Misae then stood up, saying, "We have an expert here!" and leaned forward, saying, "Let's get Yui-chan to be the soup kitchen captain!" When Misae began humming "You're the captain!" to the rhythm of Kaien-tai's song "You're the boss," the guests at Hair Salon Yoneda joined in, clapping and chanting "You're the captain!", and Yui said with a wry smile, "I'm getting carried away!" When the sudden "You're the captain!" call erupted, comments were made on social media such as, "Everyone's reaction made me burst out laughing," "Do young people know this lol," "He suddenly brought in a joke about Takeda Tetsuya, who is from Fukuoka," "Is there a connection to Fukuoka?" and "Nonji-sensei's (the basis of the script) Fukuoka Prefecture service by bringing in the Kaien-tai joke here."
