Actor Motoki Nakazawa will appear on NHK's morning information program "Asaichi" (General) broadcasting from 8:15 am on June 13th. Nakazawa, who is currently in the spotlight for his role as Chihiro, the younger brother of Takashi Yanai(played by Takumi Kitamura ) in the Asadora drama "Anpan " on the same station, will appear as a guest in "Asaichi"'s regular Friday "Premium Talk" segment.
Chihiro, who Nakazawa plays in " Anpan," was a weak child and lived in the shadow of his older brother, but as he grew up, he grew into a kind, family-oriented, and well-rounded young man. He was supposed to have gone on to Kyoto Imperial University to become a lawyer, but ended up becoming a naval lieutenant.
In episodes 53 (broadcast on June 11) and 54 (broadcast on June 12), Takashi and Chihiro meet again at a hotel in Kokura. They are shown confessing their true feelings to each other.
On social media, fans have been commenting on Nakazawa's guest appearance with comments such as, "Tomorrow's Asaichi guest will be Motoki Nakazawa...that means filming has already finished...", "Chihiro shouldn't come to Asaichi tomorrow!", "Tomorrow's Motoki Nakazawa Motoki, who plays Chihiro...ahh", "Chihiro was my favourite character in Anpan..." and "It's so confirmed, it's tough."
