◇The following contains spoilers
" Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013), the manga artist and picture book author who created "Anpanman," and his wife, Nobu (1918-1993). It is a "story of love and courage" that will fill you with the joy of living, depicting how these two, who were once nobodys, overcame all sorts of rough seas to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
In the 22nd week, Yagi (Satoshi Tsumabuki) recognizes Taka's (Takumi Kitamura) talent for poetry and asks him to set up a publishing department at his company, Kyushu Cotton Center, and publish a collection of poems.
At first, Taka refuses, but Yagi's enthusiasm persuades him to publish the poetry collection "Beloved Songs." Everyone thought it wouldn't sell, but it turned out to be a hit, defying all expectations. One day, an elementary school girl who says she was saved by "Beloved Songs" comes to the Yanai family home... and so the story unfolds.
