The NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " starring Mio Imada (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others) will broadcast its 24th week, "The Birth of Anpanman." In the 116th episode on September 8th...
" Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013) and Nobu (1918-1993), the manga artist and picture book writer who created "Anpanman." It is a "story of love and courage" that will make you feel the joy of living welling up from your whole body, depicting how these two, who were once nobodys, overcame all sorts of rough seas to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
In episode 116, Taka (Takumi Kitamura) begins drawing pictures of "Uncle Anpanman" again, and the story is almost complete. Nobu (Imada) listens to Taka's story while staring at the original drawing. Meanwhile, Taka's work on character design for the film "The Thousand and One Nights" reaches its climax. And when the grueling work comes to an end, Taka returns home with Teshima (Gordon Maeda), who asks Nobu to make tea.
After drinking tea, Teshima said that a film should be so interesting that it changes the viewer's outlook on life.... Scene cuts were also released.
