The 71st episode of the NHK morning drama " Anpan " starring Mio Imada(General Asadora , Monday to Saturday 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on July 7. In the episode, Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) takes the entrance exam for the Kochi Shimpo newspaper and fails the interview, but viewers were drawn to the subsequent developments.

In episode 71, Taka takes the entrance exam for the Kochi Shimpo newspaper, but is so nervous that he is unable to properly answer the interviewer's questions, and is told by Torii (Furukawa Koji), the deputy editor-in-chief, "It looks like you made a mistake with the company you applied to."

As Takashi was walking down the hallway after finishing his interview, Nobu (Imada) called out to him, and the two moved to a food stall and talked about their recent activities. Takashi said that he was inspired by American magazines and wanted to draw manga, and that he wanted to create the most interesting thing in the world someday. When Nobu revealed that he was creating a magazine for the Kochi Shimpo, Takashi muttered, "Wow, that's great. I wish I had been accepted."

When Nobu returns home, during dinner he is reminded by a casual conversation with Meiko (Nanoka Hara) that Taka's four-panel manga was once published in the Kochi Shimpo newspaper, and he rushes back to the office to find the newspaper.

Nobu finds the newspaper and heads to Tokairin (Kenjiro Tsuda), who is selecting new hires, to have them take a look at Taka's manga, but they are busy and won't pay him any attention. Then Midorikawa (Kashima Riku) from the social affairs department appears and tells him that there will be a hole in the second page of the morning paper the next day. The construction company that Nobu interviewed has gone bankrupt, and the article in which the president spoke about a bright outlook for recovery can no longer be published.

It was just after 10pm, and there were only two hours left until the deadline. Torii suggested filling in the blanks with illustrations, but they couldn't find an artist. Nobu showed Takashi a four-frame manga and recommended him, saying, "The artist who drew this can also draw illustrations."

This four-frame manga "Triple Jump" was drawn by Takashi after he was encouraged by Chihiro (played by Motoki Nakazawa) to submit it. In the 13th episode (broadcast on April 16th), Takashi received a letter informing him that he had been selected, and in the 15th episode (broadcast on April 18th), the contents of the manga were revealed.

On social media, people were saying things like, "Who would have thought that four-panel manga would lead to this!", "Nice assist, Nobu-chan!", "It's also thanks to Chihiro," "All of Takami's loved ones brought him here," and "Takami, your chance has come!"
