The 100th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " starring Kanna Hashimoto was broadcast on February 21st. After the main story, a preview of the next week's episode, the 21st episode, "The Curse of the Yoneda Family," was released, which became a hot topic among viewers.
In the 100th episode, Masato (Kitamura Yukiya)'s stomach cancer surgery was successful, but the surgeon Kamata (Nakamura Anne) explained that he would need to be monitored for the next five years. After two-thirds of his stomach was removed, Yui (Hashimoto), a registered dietitian, gave Masato dietary advice, and he gradually began to eat normal food. Masato was impressed by Yui's work at the hospital.
After being discharged from the hospital, Masato expressed his gratitude to his family, saying, "My life was not wrong. I was really happy. Thank you to everyone until now." Then, one month later, Nagayoshi (Matsudaira Ken) and Kayo (Miyazaki Yoshiko) suddenly came to the Yoneda family from Itoshima, Fukuoka, and the 100th episode ended.
In the preview for next week's episode, which was released after the main story ended, Emi (Nakamura Moriri), dressed in mourning clothes, announces to Yui and Ayumu ( Riisa Naka), also dressed in mourning clothes, "I'm getting married next year." Next to Emi, Yota (Sugo Araki) is sitting with a smile on his face. Yui and Ayumu are surprised and say, "Eh, really?!"
In one scene from the preview that appears to be at a funeral, but no one has a gloomy expression on their face, comments were made on social media such as, "They're wearing mourning clothes, but whose funeral is it?!", "It's clear that the scene is at someone's funeral, which bothers me...", "I'm happy that Yota and Emi are getting married! But everyone is wearing mourning clothes too...? I support the theory that Nagayoshi is having a funeral while he's still alive!", and "It's like a wake, but the scene is full of smiles. It's been a while since we've seen Yota!! I'm looking forward to next week."
