The 33rd episode of the NHK Taiga drama " UNBOUND (Berabou) " (General TV, Sunday 8pm and others), starring actor Ryusei Yokohama , titled "Uchikowashientame no Kudoku" (Destroying the Merit of a Woman), was broadcast on August 31st, and viewers reacted to a certain scene in the preview for the next episode, which was released after the main story.
" UNBOUND (Berabou)" is the 64th taiga drama and depicts the life of Tsutaya Juzaburo(or "Tsutajyu" for short), who is said to have laid the foundations for Japan's media industry and pop culture. The script was written by Yoshiko Morishita, who is known for her work on the highly talked-about "Drama 10: Ooku," which aired on NHK two years ago.
The subtitle of the next episode, the 34th, is "Thankful Mountain and Thankful Eggplant" and will be broadcast on September 7th.
Sadanobu (Inoue Yuki), who is promoted to the position of chief senior councilor, advocates frugality and begins to impose strict control.
Meanwhile, Tsutaju (Yokohama) calls on Kyoka poets to create a spectacular Kyoka picture book. However, Nanpo (Kenta Kiritani) appears and declares that he is giving up his pen. Nanpo is in danger of being punished for creating a Kyoka satirizing Sadanobu.
As the world atmosphere created by Okitsugu(Ken Watanabe) is completely transformed by Sadanobu's policies, Tsutae visits Okitsugu's mansion with a certain resolve to resist the current of the world...and so the story unfolds.
The preview for the episode included the words "upstarts" and "they've made up their minds," as well as a shot of a person in white robes tied up with rope, and Omanjiya (played by Atsushi Ito) saying, "This is to make an example."
On social media, comments such as "Will the Kansei Reforms begin next time?", "Simplicity and frugality are coming!" and "The Kansei Reforms are finally here, and difficult times are ahead..." were also posted, along with comments such as "Huh? A preview... who's that in white robes?", "Beheading? Who is it?", "Wait, there was a beheading scene in the preview for the next episode, stop it," "Is it Tsuchiyama Sojiro?" and "Tsuchiyama Sojiro Takayuki-san..." Following Shinnosuke (Inowaki Kai), who lost his life in the 33rd episode, will there be another character leaving the show?
