The third special episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Anpan ," starring Mio Imada , titled "Men's March," will be broadcast on NHK General TV from 11:00 PM on October 1st. Motoki Omori , who plays the main character Takuya Ise , has announced, "In the main story, Taku-chan was a light-hearted and carefree character, but it seems he has fallen into a slump this time."
" Anpan" is based on the married Takashi Yanase(1919-2013), the manga artist and picture book author who created "Anpanman," and his wife, Nobu (1918-1993). The series depicts how these two, who were once nobodys, overcame all sorts of troubles to become "Anpanman," the embodiment of "unreversible justice," and aired its final episode on the 26th.
"Men's March" begins with Takuya sighing deeply in a cafe. Eisuke (Todo Hinata) offers his own advice to Takuya, who is unusually depressed, but Takuya remains unable to stay positive. Then Takashi (Takumi Kitamura) comes over and hands him the lyrics, saying he has come up with some great lyrics. Takuya reads them, smiles, and begins to compose the song...
Omori reveals, "My encounter with the musician Takuya Ise is very big and important to me."
He also said, "I'm very happy to be able to play him again in this spin-off, thanks to all the people who loved ' Anpan,'" and added, "I hope you'll come and see what he values and what drives him to write songs."
