Mio Imada stars in the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan" (General TV, Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM and others). The final week (26th week), "Only Love and Courage are Friends," which begins on September 22nd, will see the new appearance of Takeyama Keizo, played by Maehara Ko.
Keizo Takeyama is a TV producer who loves "Anpanman." He visits the Yanai family to propose making an anime version of the character.
Speaking of Maehara's work in morning Asadora, he made a strong impression as Komatsubara in "Manpuku" in the second half of 2018, and as Hatano in "Ranman" in the first half of 2023. Will this reliable and trustworthy "talented actor" be the key man in the final week?
"Anpan" is based on the married couple Takashi Yanase(1919-2013), the manga artist and picture book author who created "Anpanman," and his wife, Nobu (1918-1993). It is a "story of love and courage" that will fill you with the joy of living, depicting how these two, who were once nobodys, overcame all sorts of rough seas to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice."
The drama will air its final episode on September 26th.
