I love it twice as much as the bulk! Miho Nakazono shows similarities with “Yamato Nadeshiko” in “Anpan

Two people who have spent 20 years developing a feeling for each other

The 85th episode of NHK’s morning drama series “Anpan” was broadcast on July 25, and the confession scene between the heroine Nobu (Imada Mio Imada, 28) and her childhood friend Takeshi (Takumi Kitamura, 27) has been flooded with “dying of love” comments.

The film is a story of love and courage based on Takashi Yanase, the creator of “Anpanman,” and his wife, Nobu, as they overcome many obstacles to create “Anpanman,” a symbol of justice that cannot be reversed.

In the 85th episode, it was revealed that Bulk, whose safety was unknown after the Showa Nankai Earthquake, was safe, but when Nobu learned that he had been sleeping during the earthquake, he snapped on the phone,

I was so worried to death that I lost it,” she said, slamming the receiver down hard.

She slammed the telephone down on the receiver and said, “I lost it because I was so worried to death. In order to convey his feelings to Nobu, he leaves Kochi for Tokyo.

When he was a student at Tokyo High School of Arts, he saw a red handbag in a show window in Ginza and fell in love at first sight. He had the courage to give it to Nobu as a gift, but Nobu refused it. I have loved you since I was Nobu Asada. I will always love you.

When he saw that Nobu was satisfied with his confession and was about to leave, Nobu stopped him and said, “You can’t be so weak. I finally understood when I was alone. I finally understood when I was alone. As soon as he finished, she rushed to him and hugged him, saying, “I love you. I love you twice as much as I love him! The netizens called the episode a “divine episode” because the two had been able to connect with each other over the past 20 years,” said a producer from a production company.

The 85th episode was a “divine episode” that will remain in the history of morning dramas. But is it just me, or did MISIA’s hit song “Everything” start playing in my head while watching this scene?

Everything” is the theme song from “Yamato Nadeshiko” (Fuji Television), the masterpiece of Miho Nakazono, the screenwriter who wrote the script for the current film. It is a romantic comedy about Sakurako (Nanako Matsushima), a CA who grew up poor and became the “queen of blind dates” in her quest to marry the richest man in the world, and about Ousuke (Shinichi Tsutsumi), a promising mathematician who gave up his studies for family reasons and took over a fish shop. The film was directed by Kosuke Kikuchi.

The final episode, broadcast on December 18, 2000, recorded a 34.2% viewer rating. It is a masterpiece that set a milestone as the number one Fuji Television romantic drama broadcasted after 2000.

The timid and meek Ousuke was able to succeed in his math career only because of the pep talk of the headstrong Sakurako. The relationship between Takeshi and Nobu is very similar to that between Ousuke and Sakurako.

Let us look back at the last scene of “Yamato Nadeshiko” where Ousuke and Sakurako are united.

The Red Handbag and the Tin Chameleon

Sakurako realizes her true feelings just before the final scene and confesses them to Ousuke,

However, he rejects her, saying that he is not worthy of her.

Sakurako confesses her true feelings to Ousuke, but he rejects her, saying that he is not the right man for her. Then came the final episode. After receiving recognition for his math thesis, Ousuke leaves for New York to study mathematics at an American university. Unable to give up her feelings for Ousuke, Sakurako also goes to New York.

While sitting on a bench in front of the university, Sakurako suddenly appears in front of him. To his surprise, Sakurako gives him back a tin chameleon that she once gave him as a gift.

This chameleon is a precious amulet that taught Sakurako that there is something more important than money. When Ousuke learns of Sakurako’s intention to walk away, he returns the chameleon to her again, and the famous line is born.

You keep it with you. I won’t run away anymore. I love you. Even if you change your mind. ……

And Sakurako replies, “I can see it.

I can see it; I will still be with you ten years from now, twenty years from now. Unfortunately, I am happy when I am with you.”

It was a fitting scene to end “Yamato Nadeshiko.

Looking back, both the tin chameleon presented by Ousuke and Bulk’s red handbag were fascinating items that symbolized the hearts of two people who frustratingly crossed paths.

The difference in their paths is the real thrill of a love story, and long distance is the aphrodisiac that makes the feelings grow stronger. Miho Nakazono, a “master of romantic dramas” who is well versed in the art of love, ruminates on the essence of love in episode 85.

I love it. I love you twice as much as I love Bulk!

Nobu’s confession may seem less than Sakurako’s line in “Yamato Nadeshiko. In Yanase’s autobiography, it is written that Nobu said, ” I want to have Mr. Yanase’s baby,” but that expression is not appropriate for a morning drama. However, Nobu’s straightforward sentiment, “I love you. I love you twice as much as I love Bulk! is another line that is typical of Nobu.

What kind of great scenes will Miho Nakazono create in the future in the morning drama “Anpan”? We look forward to seeing them.
