The final episode (episode 130) of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan " (General TV, Monday to Saturday at 8:00 AM and other times), starring Mio Imada , was broadcast on September 26th, and viewers were drawn to the "miracle" that happened to Nobu (Imada).
In the final episode, when Takashi ( Takumi Kitamura) opens the door to Nobu's hospital room, his heart is filled with joy at the sight of her smiling face. After being released from the hospital, Nobu realizes that she only has a short time left to live and asks Takashi if she'll be okay without him, murmuring, "Maybe we won't be able to see the cherry blossoms together this year." Takashi replies, "That's not true," and encourages Nobu by saying, "Let's try everything that's said to be good for your health."
Nobu says, "I'm so happy that there is such a kind person... I'm so happy that I can become his wife... We are the happiest people in the world." Taka blames himself for not noticing Nobu's illness, but Nobu says, "Taka always brightened my heart," and "I love you so much, Taka." He continues, "We only have a little time left together, but it's overflowing. My body is... full of Taka's love," and Taka hugs Nobu tightly.
The scene changed to announcer Risa Hayashida, who was narrating the story, saying, "Perhaps a miracle occurred. For the next five years, Nobu lived a healthy life, as if her illness had been completely cured." Nobu, who appeared to be in good health, was being interviewed alongside Taka. When asked by a reporter, "What kind of person is the doctor?" Nobu answered with a smile, "He is a kind person at heart," and "He's not just kind, he's a little bit outside the norm."
Comments on social media included, "That's great, this kind of miracle is very welcome!!", "I can't stop crying", "I'm relieved that it ended while Nobu-chan is still healthy", "I thought Nobu-san would die but he's in great spirits!? It was unexpected but good too!", "My worries about the ending were completely exceeded and it was a beautiful conclusion", "The final episode betrayed me in a good way", "I'm glad it had a happy ending", "It wasn't a grand finale or a tearjerker. It was just everyday life with a loved one."
