The 12th episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others), starring Mio Imada, was broadcast on April 15th. In the episode, when Nobu (Imada) jumped in to join a bread-eating contest and nearly collapsed, viewers were abuzz about who supported Nobu.
In the 12th episode, the festival bread-eating contest finally begins, and Nobu rushes to bring in extra bean- Anpan. Meanwhile, Takashi (Motoki Nakazawa), who was scheduled to compete in the final group with Chihiro (Motoki Nakazawa) and Iwao (Takumi Kitamura), suddenly says, "I'm withdrawing. My stomach hurts like crazy," and leaves, entrusting his sash to Nobu.
Nobu, who jumped in to join the final group, ran with incredible force, catching up from the back. Nobu was pushed under the Anpan and nearly fell, but someone supported his back and somehow managed to hold on. Nobu ran as fast as he could with the Anpan in his mouth, overtaking Iwao and crossing the finish line in first place.
Attention was focused on who supported Nobu when he stumbled during the race, with comments on social media such as "It must have been Chihiro, based on his position," "I hope he's her imaginary father," and "It must have been one of the men nearby... but could it be Taka?"
