The sixth episode of the TBS Tuesday drama "Jaa, Anta ga Tsukutte Miro yo It" (Tuesdays at 10 PM), starring Kaho and Takeuchi Ryoma, aired on November 11th. Katsuo (played by Takeuchi), who has become more "annoying" since learning to cook, became a hot topic on social media.

Katsuo accidentally cooked rice on the porridge setting in his rice cooker, and the rice ended up soggy. "Seriously?... No wait, this isn't a failure. In fact, it's just the beginning," he thought, pulling himself together and making porridge. He searched for a recipe on his smartphone and found that it called for chicken stock, so he headed straight to the supermarket. He decided to make it himself from chicken bones.
The next day, when Katsuo reported to his junior colleague, Shirasaki Rui (Maehara Mizuki), she told him, "You're already a pro!" Katsuo proudly replied, "I just tried a little harder."
Afterwards, Katsuo visited a monjayaki restaurant with Shirasaki and Minamigawa Amina (Kyouka). When Minamigawa poured the broth without making a bank, Katsuo immediately retorted, "You have to make a bank first!", and sighed, "I'll do it. What are you doing?" He arrogantly instructed, "First make a bank! Do you understand?" Minamigawa could only confide to Shirasaki, "Aren't you getting more annoying now that you know how to cook?"
On social media, there were many comments such as, "Yeah, Katsuo's gotten even more annoying since he started cooking. But he's cute~", "Katsuo's so particular about cooking that he's even more annoying lol", "Katsuo's so lovable, I love him. He's gotten a little more annoying but he's still an absolutely great guy", "Katsuo's annoying and irritating personality are just the right amount, and the occasional glimpses of his good nature are admirable", "I'm starting to find Katsuo's annoyingness more pleasant now that he's so proud of his cooking, lol", and "Katsuo's annoyingness, which had been rising in popularity, is back and I find myself thinking that I've been waiting for this to happen."
