"Anpan" Episode 60: The war finally ends - viewers burst into tears at Ranko's words

The 60th episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 a.m. and others), starring Mio Imada , was broadcast on June 20. In the episode, after the long war ended, viewers reacted to the words Ranko ( Yuumi Kawai) muttered while listening to the Emperor's surrender broadcast.

In the 60th episode, on August 15, 1945, Japan was defeated and the long war came to an end. The Emperor's radio broadcast of the surrender was broadcast, and Takashi (Takumi Kitamura), Kentaro (Fumiya Takahashi), Yagi (Satoshi Tsumabuki), and the other members of the Asada family listened to the radio.

Kamaji (Kotaro Yoshida), Kura (Miyoko Asada), and Meiko (Nanoka Hara) are stunned. Meanwhile, Ranko is the only one looking up at the sky and muttering, "It's finally over... Go-chan." Hatako (Noriko Eguchi) seems to have noticed what she said and turns her gaze slightly towards Ranko.

In response to Ranko's words thinking of Gou (Kanata Hosoda), who died in the war, comments on social media included, "My tear ducts collapsed. Ranko's tears are too destructive," "Even this one word carries so much weight," "I couldn't hold it in any longer when Ranko spoke to Gou-chan," "It was heartbreaking to see the sense of emptiness that came from wondering what Gou-chan's death meant...," "Ranko's sense of loss will never heal," and "I'm hoping that Gou-chan is actually still alive."
