The seventh episode of the drama series "Broadcasting Station Occupy" (NTV, Saturdays at 9 PM), starring Sakurai Sho, aired on August 23rd. In the episode, the true identity of the armed group Ayakashi, Wanyudo, was revealed, causing a stir on social media.

◇The following contains spoilers.

Musashi (Sakurai) discovers the reason why Ibuki (Kato Seishiro) has turned into a demon. However, the occupation incident is not over yet. Ibuki banished Yamato (Fuma Kikuchi) and imprisoned him in a freezer due to a difference of opinion, but after much conflict, he decides to "save Yamato."

In order to interrogate the head of the security department, Yashiro (Kumi Takiuchi), the commander, Honjo (Takiuchi Kumi), tells all investigators, "I'm now handing over command to Chief Musashi! Please hurry and identify where Yamato Koichi is being held captive!"...and so the story unfolds.

The reason Yamato helped the demons was because Nopperabo killed Oshima Hitomi (Kamiishi Seira), whom he looked up to like a brother. One month earlier, the monk Hachijo Go (Haranishi Takayuki), who had lost his daughter Junko in the Kamaitachi incident, was tricked by Nopperabo into barricading himself in a bus and blowing himself up. Mourning Hachijo's death, Ibuki disobeys Yamato, who refuses to admit to murder, and shoots Nopperabo dead, banishing Yamato from the demons.

When it was revealed that Wani-nyūdō's true identity was Haranishi from the comedy duo "FUJIWARA," people on social media expressed surprise, saying things like, "Wa, Haranishi?!", "I was blown away by this unexpected news," and "It's actually Haranishi!". Furthermore, the fact that Hachijō, who hijacked a bus and committed suicide in the first episode, was Wani-nyūdō sparked discussion, with people saying things like, "I had no idea the bus hijacking incident was that important," "What a thrilling way to tie up loose ends," "I never thought he was a demon," and "I never thought he'd be so connected to the bus hijacking incident..."
