The 83rd episode of the NHK morning drama " Anpan " starring Mio Imada(General Asadora , Monday to Saturday at 8:00 am and others) was broadcast on July 23rd, in which viewers expressed concern for Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura), who is unable to be contacted after a major earthquake strikes Kochi.
In the 83rd episode, it is December 1946, two months after Nobu (Imada) moved to Tokyo. A major earthquake occurs in western Japan. With telegraph services cut off, local information is confusing, and Nobu is overcome with anxiety as she prays for the safety of her family and Takashi.
At that time, many employees at Kochi Shimpo were still unsure of their safety, and the situation was still in chaos. Kotoko (Yui Narumi), who was cleaning up the editorial office where documents were scattered, asked Tokairin (Kenjiro Tsuda) and Iwashimizu (Yuki Kura), who had returned with grim expressions, "How was it?" Tokairin and Iwashimizu talked about how the buildings that had survived the air raids had collapsed, and how the roads had collapsed and they couldn't go any further.
Still unable to get in touch with Taka (Takumi Kitamura), Tokairin tweeted, "If anything were to happen to Yanai, it'll be my responsibility. He'd been up all night, so I forced him to go home the day before yesterday." "I just went and saw, and the area around where he lives has suffered the worst damage."
The "Showa Nankai Earthquake" occurred on December 21, 1946, just as in real life. On social media, people were saying things like, "There was such a big earthquake in Kochi," "Back then there were no cell phones or emails, so the anxiety of not knowing if someone was safe must have been even greater than it is now," "Is Takashi OK?" "I hope everyone is safe," and "Could this be the catalyst for Nobu to realize her feelings for Takashi?"
