The 116th episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Bakebake, " starring Akari Takaishi , aired on March 16th (NHK General, Monday-Saturday, 8:00 AM, etc.). In this episode, ten years passed in an instant, and viewers focused on the actions of Heaven ( Tommy Bastow), who is now 53 years old.
Ten years have passed since then, and Toki (Takaishi) and Heaven (Tommy Bastow ) have moved to Okubo in Tokyo. They spend lively and happy times with their eldest son Kanta (Wendland Asada George), second son Isao ( Takashi Okabe Etaniel), Tsukasanosuke ( Chizuru Ikewaki), and Kuma (Natsume Touha). Heaven has been a lecturer in the English Department of Imperial University for six and a half years. He spends his days going back and forth between the university and his home to teach English to children, earning 400 yen a month.
One day, Heaven was on his way to university in a rickshaw pulled by the rickshaw driver Murakami (Tomonori Mizuno) when he got out of the rickshaw and said, "Health is important! Legs and feet are important! I want to walk. I'm 53 years old... I don't have much life left."
When Heaven returned home, he joined the children in skipping before sitting down on the veranda. Tsukasanosuke noticed something on Heaven's mustache and pointed out, "I thought it was a gray hair, but it's snow piled up on your mustache." Heaven gave an awkward laugh and left.
Later, Heaven writes a letter to Eliza (Charlotte Kate Fox). "As I told you before, I'm not in good health. My father also passed away at about my age now. Eliza, I'm going to write a bestseller next time. One that I won't regret, even if it's my last book." Heaven blows his conch shell, and the family gathers together, gazing at the sunset that resembles Lake Shinji.
The next day, Heaven stopped the rickshaw again and started walking. After confirming that the rickshaw had left, Heaven entered an alley and, for some reason, went into a "milk hall."
On social media, comments included: "Heaven...? Something seems suspicious," "Heaven... is he hiding something again?", "Could it be that he quit his job?", "Is he slacking off?", "Could it be that he's having an affair?", "He looks unwell, which is worrying," "He seems to have something on his mind," "Maybe he's missing England or America," and "Heaven has aged so much all of a sudden. I'm worried about his health..."
