Omusubi:Average viewership rating for the 24th week was 11.9%. The "Maki-like girl" was hospitalized. Only 4 days left until the final episode.

It was revealed on March 24th that the average weekly audience rating (households) for the 24th week of the NHK Asadora drama "Omusubi " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00am and others), starring Kanna Hashimoto , "What is a Family?" (March 17th to 21st) was 11.9% (based on a survey by Video Research, Kanto region). The drama will air its final episode on the 28th.

" Omusubi" is a "Heisei youth graffiti" in which the heroine, born in 1989, connects people's hearts and futures as a nutritionist, with the "gal spirit" of valuing one's individuality at all times.

In the 24th week, a malnourished girl named "Tahara Uta" is admitted to the hospital where Yui (Hashimoto) works, but she refuses to eat anything, which is a problem for Yui and her friends. Uta lost her parents in an accident when she was young and grew up in an orphanage, and she looked somewhat like Ayumu's (Riisa Naka) deceased best friend Maki.

Meanwhile, Aiko (Kumiko Aso), who wants to move to Itoshima where Kayo (Yoshiko Miyazaki) lives alone, leaves a note and leaves her home in Kobe. Masato (Yukiya Kitamura), who is left behind, sits alone in his barbershop with no customers and thinks about moving, reflecting on his past attachment to Kobe.

Ayumu heard from Hana that Uta said that there was no meaning to his life...and the story unfolded.
