The 80th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Bakebake " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others), starring Akari Takaishi , was broadcast on January 23rd, and viewers were drawn to the preview of the 17th week, "What, Iuka." (January 26th to 30th), which was released after the main program.
In episode 80, Sawa ( Wan Marui) is studying at the Shiratori Club, a salon on the second floor of Yamahashi Pharmacy, to become a regular teacher. Toki (Takaishi) visits her, but Sawa seems somewhat cold towards him. Toki is curious about Sawa's condition, but while Yamahashi (Emoto Tokio) and others are talking to her, Sawa leaves the salon.
Later, while Sawa is studying at the Shiratori Club, Takichi Shoda (Shogo Hama) comes to visit. He tells her that he has moved out of his home in Tokyo and returned to Matsue. Shoda was a candidate to succeed Nishikori (Ryo Yoshizawa) as the English teacher if he becomes the principal.
In the preview for next week, which was released after the main story ended, there is a scene where Shoda asks Sawa, "If you don't mind, I'll teach you how to study," to which the Snake and Frog (Asagaya Sisters) respond, "Oh no, what's this all of a sudden!" and "This is love, definitely love!" There is also a scene where Nami (Honami Sato) leans on Fukuma (Hiroueno), and Toki and Sawa are talking about something.
The scene changes to Toki, Shoda, and Heaven (Tommy Bastow) sitting on the veranda. Toki mutters, "Osawa, switch!", and the snake and frog join in, saying "switch!" Shoda, sandwiched between Heaven and Toki, has a confused look on his face.
Comments on social media included, "Oh my, isn't this a bit of love?", "The preview made me smile hugely", "The preview for next week is already cute. I can't wait", "What will Shoda's appearance bring to Nishikori and Osawa?", "Seeing next week's preview, things seem to be looking up", "I almost cried when I saw Tokisawa smiling in the preview for next week", "I'm relieved to see them chatting happily next week!!" and "Have the tension been resolved?"
