The 16th episode of the NHK Taiga drama " UNBOUND (Berabou) " (General TV, Sunday 8pm and others), starring actor Ryusei Yokohama , "Farewell Gennai, the Founder is Horai", will be broadcast on April 20th. The case of Iemoto ( Tomoya Oku)'s sudden death comes to an end without any solid evidence. Okitsugu(Ken Watanabe) tells Gennai (Ken Yasuda Ken) that he will refrain from prying any further, but...
Gennai is furious at Okitsugu's words. Meanwhile, Tsutaju (Yokohama) visits Gennai's mansion, known as the "house of misfortune," and asks him to write a new play for the New Year, but is concerned by his strange behavior from time to time. Just then, Tsutaju and Okitsugu receive news that "Gennai has killed someone."
The trailer displays words such as "Genius or cheat?" and also includes audio of Gennai saying, "Maybe it's because he's stealing my credit!" and Okitsugu saying, "I'm the one who's had it stolen from me!"
"UNBOUND (Berabou)" is the 64th taiga drama, depicting the life of Tsutaya Juzaburo(or "Tsutajyu" for short), who is said to have built the foundations of Japan's media industry and pop culture. The script was written by Yoshiko Morishita, known for "Drama 10 'Ooku'" which was broadcast on NHK two years ago and became a big hit.
