◇The following contains spoilers
" Bakebake" is the 113th morning Asadora. Based on the story of Lafcadio Yakumo Koizumi(Lafcadio Hearn) and his wife Setsu, the story follows a couple, with a love of ghost stories, as they go about their everyday lives together with their foreign husband. Takaishi plays the main character, Toki Matsuno, while Tommy Bastow plays Toki's husband, Lefkada Heaven.
The story is not based on an original novel, but is an original work by screenwriter Fujiki Mitsuhiko, who has worked on NHK's drama "Asagaya Sisters' Laid-Back Life" and WOWOW's "Shooting Break Series."
It has been four years since Toki (Takaishi) broke up with Ginjiro (Kanichiro). Toki is still struggling to escape his poverty and is earning a living by selling clams.
At the Hanada Inn, where Toki is a client, Toki is informed by the owner, Heita (Namase Katsuhisa), and his wife, Tsuru (Iketani Nobue), that foreigners will be coming to Matsue. Toki's anticipation grows at the sight of these foreigners, whom he has never seen before. And when the day arrives, Toki visits the pier, which is bustling with people in a welcoming mood, and meets Lefkada Heaven (Tommy Bastow).
