The 85th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 AM and others) was broadcast on July 25th, and viewers were drawn to the preview of the following week's 18th week, "Walking Together, Now is Happiness," which was released after the main story.
In episode 85, Nobu (Imada) regrets saying something horrible to Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) on the phone and consults Yagi (Satoshi Tsumabuki). Meanwhile, Takashi is encouraged by Nobu's family and decides to tell her how he feels. After arriving in Tokyo, Takashi hands Nobu the red handbag that she had never received before and confesses, "Wakamatsu Nobu... I've liked you since the days of Nobu Asada." Nobu also tells him, "I like you. I like you twice as much as you do!" and the two finally get together.
In the preview for the next week, which was released after the main story ended, Taka is seen drawing something, and Nobu's voice is heard asking, "Have you found a manga job yet?" In Tetsuko's (Keiko Toda) office, administrative assistant Sera (Kihara Katsutoshi) says, "The smell of misfortune is in the air."
The scene changes to Takashi's mother, Tomiko (Nanako Matsushima), smiling as she enjoys a friendly gathering with the Asada family, and Takashi's aunt, Chiyoko (Naho Toda), is also standing next to Tomiko.
With Tomiko and Chiyoko making their first appearance in a long time, comments were made on social media such as, "It's been a while since we've seen Tomiko in next week's preview...!" "Tomiko is laughing in the circle...?" "Does Tomiko's appearance foreshadow more trouble?" "I was worried about Chiyoko's safety!" and "The preview is so exciting! I'm looking forward to next week."
