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 118th episode on September 10th...
" 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 118, Nobu (Imada) reads "Anpanman" to the children at Yagi's (Satoshi Tsumabuki) company. However, the children seem uninterested... A short time later, the film "The Gentle Lion," directed by Takashi (Takumi Kitamura), is released and receives positive reviews. Scene cuts have also been released.
