The final episode of the Tuesday drama "I Want to Punch That Scum" (TBS, Tuesdays at 10pm) starring Nao was broadcast on December 10th. The new love of Ooba Souto (Koseki Yuta), an elite civil servant who has had feelings for Hokomi (Nao), became a hot topic on social media.

Three months after Nao's match, Ohba filled out and submitted the paperwork to join Hanegi Gym.
While Ohba is practicing jumping rope at the gym, Yui (Okazaki Sae) tells her, "Oh, you won't be able to join if you're like that. You can't really join unless you can jump 500 times consecutively using this method within two weeks."
When Ohba took her seriously and asked, "Is that so?", Yui laughed happily, saying, "Ohba-san, you're so honest! Hahaha!". Seeing Yui like that, Ohba was shown saying, "I want to know more about you. About boxing. About Yui."
On social media, comments such as, "I hope Ohba's love will be rewarded next time!", "I'm rooting for Ohba's love!", "Ohba was kind until the end and I hope her love is rewarded," "It looks like the season of love has finally arrived for Yui and Ohba and they are a perfect match! I wish them happiness!", "I'm so happy that there are signs of love between my favorite pair, Ohba and Yui!", and "Yui is the one who knows Ohba's most natural and uncool side, isn't she?" were lined up.
