The 68th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Bakebake " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others), starring Akari Takaishi , was broadcast on January 7th, and viewers reacted to Tsukasanosuke(Takashi Okabe) who let a slip of the tongue.
Toki (Takaishi) finally tells her family that she is marrying Heaven (Tommy Bastow). Toki is prepared for strong opposition from Kan'emon (Fumiyo Kohinata), who hates foreigners, but surprisingly, he agrees, saying, "If you like me, then I guess there's no other way."
Later, Tsukasanosuke and Fumi (Chizuru Ikewaki) visit Tae (Keiko Kitagawa) and tell her that Toki will be marrying Heaven. Tae approves of Toki's marriage, saying, "Isn't that fine? She's the daughter of the Matsuno family. As long as the Matsuno family is okay with it... and as long as Toki is happy."
Tsukasanosuke was relieved, saying, "That's good." "To be honest, I was worried that we would suddenly be together...especially since the other person is a foreigner..."
He continued, "The truth is... there has been talk for a while of a man named Heaven leaving Matsue. If he were to leave, not only would O-Toki no longer receive her salary, but she would also no longer be able to give her monthly money to Ushimizu. However, if they are united like this and O-Tae-sama approves, then there will be no more worries. O-Toki, we, and the Ushimizu family will all be able to live in peace from now on," revealing that Toki was giving money to Sannojo(Rihito Itagaki) every month.
Tae, who has no idea what's going on, presses her, "What exactly are you talking about when you say you won't be able to give her the money every month?" Realizing he'd let something slip, Tsukasanosuke tries to dodge the question by saying, "I don't know... what are you talking about?", but Fumi raises her voice and says, "It's too late now!"
Various comments were posted on social media, such as "He blurted out things he didn't need to say," "Sannojo revealed something that Tsukasanosuke was desperately trying to hide!!!," "Tsukasanosuke...maybe he let his guard down, he's been so careless," "It's become a pattern that things move forward because of Tsukasanosuke's slip of the tongue," "He's as useless as ever," "It's probably a good thing that it was revealed this time," and "Otae-sama is in shock...I wonder what will happen tomorrow."
