The 40th episode of the NHK Asadora drama series "Kaze,Kaoru " (NHK General, Monday-Saturday 8:00 AM, etc.), starring Ai Mikami and Juri Kosaka , aired on May 22nd, and the janitor Mansaku Shibata, played by Kazuki Iio of the comedy duo "Zun," became a hot topic among viewers.
When Naomi (played by Uesaka) asked Mansaku to make a walking stick for male patients, Mansaku readily agreed, saying, "I can make one in a day." Then Rin also made a request, saying, "I'd like something like a board that can be placed on the back..."
Then Burns (Emma Howard) arrives and asks Mansaku, "I'd like you to make another table for me." Previously, Burns had brought a large table into the hospital room, and Naomi is surprised, asking, "Was that table made by Mansaku too?" Mansaku replies, "Yes. Who else could make something that big?"
On social media, comments included: "Mansaku has become a handyman lol," "Mansaku can make anything!", "Mansaku is too versatile," "Who exactly is Mansaku!?", "He makes all sorts of things, not just weeds!", "He's a skilled worker," "He's too talented!", "He's very dexterous," "Burns speaks fluent Japanese to Mansaku," and "Mansaku seems to be getting a lot of requests to make all sorts of things, so he probably doesn't have time to relax..."
