The 85th episode of the NHK morning drama "Bakeke" (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and others), starring Takaishi Akari, was broadcast on January 30th, and viewers were drawn to the preview of the 18th episode, "Matsue, Wonderful" (February 2nd to 6th), which was released after the main program.
In episode 85, Shoda (Hama Masago), who has decided to become an English teacher at Matsue Junior High School, makes up his mind and proposes to Sawa (Marui Wan). Sawa, who has a strong desire to leave the tenement house on her own, turns down Shoda's proposal and sobs into Toki's (Takaishi) arms.
In the preview for next week's episode, which was released after the main story ended, Tsukasasuke (Takashi Okabe) says, "I've paid off my debt!" along with scenes of the Matsuno family having a meal with their debt collector, Zentaro (Mizuki Maehara), and the Matsuno family members looking very happy. The Snake and Frog (Asagaya Sisters) say, "The debt is finally paid off," "That's great," and "It's been a long wait."
A female voice, presumably Tae (Kitagawa Keiko), then said, "Be careful. Pride comes before a fall," and a picture of Toki walking with glasses and his face hidden by a cloth was shown on screen.
At the end, Tsukasasuke declares in front of his family that he has quit his job at the milk shop. Toki and the others look stunned. Snake and Frog interject, "Tsukasasuke!"
Tsukasa nosuke's comment that he "quit his job at the milk shop" attracted attention, with comments on social media such as "You quit your job as soon as you paid off your debt? Tsukasa nosuke!!", "I shouted 'Tsukasa nosuke!!' together with Snake and Frog", "The snake and frog's powerful comments spoke for all the viewers", "Tsukasa nosuke in the preview...", "Tsukasa nosuke in the preview... a child's character remains the same until they become a hundred...", "He's definitely going to do something lol", and "I have a bad feeling about this".
