The 78th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Bakebake " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others), starring Akari Takaishi , was broadcast on January 21st, and the family circumstances of Sawa ( Wan Marui) were revealed, attracting the attention of viewers.
Sawa, who is studying hard to become a regular teacher, visits the Shiratori Club, a study salon on the second floor of Yamahashi Pharmacy. People aspiring to become lawyers or civil engineers gather there. When Sawa introduces herself, the salon members make cruel remarks such as, "If you want to be a teacher, that means you want to be like Heaven-sensei, right?" and "So you want to be like Otoki-san, right?" Sawa loudly denies it, saying, "No!"
When Sawa returns home after finishing her studies, her mother Kinu (Kawai Aoba) is waiting for her, lying on the floor. "Did you study?" she asks, to which Sawa replies, "Yeah... not bad," and then tells her, "I'll get ready for dinner soon. Just wait a moment." Sawa goes outside to get some water, looks across the river, and sighs.
Comments on social media included, "Her mother was sick...", "This really delves into Osawa's family situation... was she taking care of her mother?", "She was an only mother and only child," "Osawa's struggles are beyond imagination," "Sawa staring blankly at the other side of the river, so sad and painful...", and "Hang in there, Osawa."
