The 56th 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 June 15th, and viewers were drawn to a comment made by Rin's (Mikami) younger sister, Yasu (Miumi Hayasaka).
The day arrives for the families to meet in preparation for Yasushi and Soichi's (Shuhei Uesugi) wedding. Rin and Mitsu (Miki Mizuno) are busy making preparations, but Tamaki (Ema) is downcast, and Yasushi says, "Can't we postpone it until after the wedding?"
After the meeting, when An returned home, she expressed her doubts, saying, "Maybe I should call off the wedding." An thought that Soichi was a wonderful person to marry, but she was unsure if it was right to decide to marry him just because she longed to become a "wife."
Just then, when Tamaki arrived, An began to tell the story she had written for Tamaki. Suddenly, An looked as if she had an idea and said, "I should take care of the house. My older sister is doing the cutting of the grass and acting as the husband... I will become the mistress of this house. And then... I will raise Tamaki and find a husband for her. It makes the most sense."
Yasuko says that she would rather live with her hardworking sister, raise her adorable daughter Tamaki as if she were her own, and stay by her mother's side until the end, rather than marry into a family where she might have a scary mother-in-law. Mitsu tries to reason with her, saying, "You know the hardships of living alone as a woman, don't you? How can I stand by and watch my two daughters become unhappy?" But Yasuko retorts, "Even if I get married properly, there's no guarantee that I'll be happy," and the two women get into an argument.
On social media, comments included: "A sudden turn of events on Monday!", "What's wrong, An-chan?", "Maybe it's pre-wedding jitters?", "Sudden change of heart...", "I was surprised because I thought he'd be more assertive since it was love at first sight", "They've already met each other's families", "He admired his wife so much", and "So, what kind of life will An choose?"
