The 33rd episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others) was broadcast on May 14th. In the episode, Chihiro ( Motoki Nakazawa)'s feelings for Nobu (Imada) were revealed, which became a hot topic among viewers as it was "heartbreaking."
In episode 33, when Kentaro (Takumi Kitamura) sees the souvenir that Taka (Fumiya Takahashi) was holding preciously in his room, he worries about whether he should give it to Nobu.
The next day, Chihiro (Motoki Nakazawa) visits the Asada family to buy Anpan and tells Nobu, "My brother... says he has something he wants to give to you. He'll wait for you in the vacant lot, so go ahead."
Chihiro stares sadly at Nobu's back as he heads to Takashi's side. Meiko (Nanoka Hara) notices Chihiro's feelings and murmurs, "Could it be that Chihiro... you're thinking about Nobu-neechan..." Chihiro cannot hide her agitation, and Meiko tells her, "I won't tell anyone, and please don't worry." Chihiro smiles, bows her head, and says, "Thank you, Meiko."
On social media, people were saying things like, "Chihiro also likes Nobu...it's so sad," "Even though she likes him, she creates situations to make sure everything goes well for her brother. Isn't she just too nice? She's so perfect it makes me want to cry," "It's heartbreaking to see Chihiro burying her feelings inside," "I'm sure Chihiro likes Nobu, but I think she loves Taku even more than that," and "Motoki Nakazawa's acting is amazing."
