Ryuta Mine, Shozo Hayashiya, and Sanpei Hayashiya all appear in the same episode! "What is this Ebina family festival?" "Ebina Avengers" - they're all excited!

The 35th episode of the NHK Taiga drama " UNBOUND (Berabou) " (General TV, Sunday 8pm and others), starring actor Ryusei Yokohama , entitled "Machigaida Kobunbu no Futamichi" (The Two Paths of the Wrong Kite and the Literature and Martial Arts), was broadcast on September 14th, with rakugo performer Hayashiya Shozo appearing in the role of Matsudaira Nobuyoshi.

" 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.

In the 35th episode, "Bunbunido Mankoku Dooshi" (The Two Arts of Literature and Martial Arts, the Thousand Koku Comprehensive Strategy) mocks Sadanobu's (Inoue Yuki) politics. However, when Sadanobu sees this, he misunderstands it, and instead the reforms gain momentum, leaving Tsutae (Yokohama) with mixed feelings. Meanwhile, he learns from the Yomiuri that Sadanobu has become an assistant to the shogun.

Utamaro (Shota Sometani) reunites with Kiyo (Sawako Fujima), who once collected paintings from an abandoned temple, and has a change of heart. At Edo Castle, Ienari (Kaori Jō) fathers a child with a maid from the inner palace... and so on.

Matsudaira Nobuyoshi, played by Shozo, is the head of the Kojima Matsudaira family, and has Kurahashi Itaru/Koikawa Harumachi (played by Okayama Amane) as his vassal.

In the same episode, Shozo's brother-in-law, Ryuta Mine, appeared as Kumanoya, and his younger brother, Sanpei Hayashiya, appeared as a wealthy merchant, making it a chance for all three to appear together.

Viewers also responded on social media, with comments such as "Mine Ryuta, Hayashiya Shozo, Hayashiya Sanpei (family)," "The whole Hayashiya family is here," "What is this Ebina family festival...?", "Is this the Ebina Avengers episode?", "The Ebina guys are good, yeah," "It'll be interesting if Midori and Yasuha appear too," and "A taiga drama with an all-star cast of the Ebina family, with Mine Ryuta, Shozo, and Sanpei."
