The NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 am and others), starring Mio Imada , will enter its 11th week, "I hate the military, but...", on June Getsuku.
"Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013) and Nobu (1918-1993), the manga artist and picture book writer who created "Anpanman." It is a "story of love and courage" that will make you feel the joy of living, depicting how these two, who were once nobody, overcame all sorts of rough seas to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
In the 11th week, Takashi (Takumi Kitamura) is transferred from the Kochi regiment to the Kokura regiment. There he meets the mysterious Private First Class Yagi Shinnosuke (Satoshi Tsumabuki). As Takashi lives a tough life, receiving harsh punishment from his senior soldiers, a certain man who had enlisted before him appears before him. This unexpected reunion brings relief to Takashi. Meanwhile, in Kochi, Nobu (Imada) receives a letter from Jiro (Ayumu Nakajima).
The last sentence of the letter makes Nobu feel an indescribable unease. The war situation continues to worsen.
