The eighth episode of the TBS Tuesday drama "Jaa, Anta ga Tsukutte Miro yo It" (Tuesdays at 10 PM), starring Kaho and Ryoma Takeuchi, aired on November 25th. A comment made by Katsuo Ebiwara (played by Takeuchi)'s father, Katsu (played by Daikichi Sugawara), became a hot topic on social media.

Katsu asks his son Takahiro (Takashi Tsukamoto) is, who left a note saying she'll be away for a while, and finds out she's at Katsuo's house. He comes all the way from Oita to Katsuo's house, claiming that he didn't know how to charge the handset on his phone.
Katsu doesn't say anything when he sees Yoko for the first time in a long time. Instead of his father, Katsuo confides in Yoko, "Dad wants Mom to come back. He's just not able to be honest with himself. That's because he asked Takahiro where Mom is."
The next morning, Katsuo made miso soup from shaved bonito flakes to make dashi, and served it along with grilled salmon for his parents. Realizing that Katsuo had made the entire breakfast, Katsu took a sip of the miso soup and muttered, "Hmmm. Not bad." Afterward, he ate a hearty portion of rice, then handed his bowl to Katsuo with a "hmm."
When Katsuo interrupts, "What? Shouldn't a man just sit back and relax?", Katsu is shown offering his son, "Well, you made it. You have to be responsible until the end...can I have another serving?"
Social media was buzzing with comments such as, "'Refill' was so cute lol," "The way his dad looked so smug after saying 'refill' was unexpectedly adorable," "Katsuo's dad was so funny when he came to Katsuo's house because his handset had run out of battery and he didn't know how to use it, so he had to ask for instructions," "It's not 'refill'! Make it yourself," "Well, considering he said 'hmm' as he brought out the bowl but changed it to 'refill' and agreed to the instant miso soup, maybe he's changed a little," and "Dad has definitely made progress compared to when he silently pushed the bowl out. It's so real how everyone hasn't changed at all."
