The fifth episode of the NHK drama series "Hitori de Shinitai" (General TV, Saturday 10:00 pm), starring actor Haruka Ayase, will be broadcast on July 26th. The subtitle of the episode is "Don't be scared! Fight! Worship Gandhi." Asset management is important for "end of life preparations," but it is also important to check whether there are any wasteful expenditures first.
So Narumi (Haruka Ayase) meets her ex-boyfriend Kentaro (Shinnosuke Mitsushima), who works at an insurance company, to review the insurance she bought after being recommended by him. Narumi is a little excited to see Kentaro again after such a long time. Kentaro appears to be shining brighter than ever.
Meanwhile, seeing Narumi like that, Nasuda (Hayato Sano) becomes uneasy and takes an unexpected action to get Narumi's attention: he ignores her.
The drama is an unprecedented social comedy about the end of life, based on the manga of the same name by Kaoru Curryzawa, which has been praised as a "laughable gag manga about the end of life." The script is written by Mika Omori, who wrote the Asadora"Asa ga Kita" in the latter half of 2015 and the taiga drama "Seiten wo Tsuke" in 2021.
