The 113th episode of the NHK Asadora drama "Bakebake " (General TV, Monday to Saturday 8:00 AM and other times), starring Akari Takaishi , was broadcast on March 11th, and viewers were captivated by the scene where Heaven ( Tommy Bastow) and Nishikori (Ryo Yoshizawa Ryo) meet face to face.
In episode 112 (broadcast on March 10th), Heaven decides to become a Japanese citizen and visits Matsue to complete the necessary procedures in order to become a family with Toki (Takaishi) and Kanta. However, since there is no precedent in Shimane for a foreigner to register as Japanese and become Japanese, it turns out that she needs the approval of the prefecture's governor, Eto (Sano Shiro). In order to persuade the governor, Heaven visits Nishikori's home to seek his help.
In the same episode, Heaven visits Nishikori's room for the first time and asks him to persuade the governor. However, Nishikori says, "The governor doesn't trust me right now," and bows his head, refusing to help.
Heaven then notices that two of his books are lined up behind Nishikori. In episode 112, Nishikori's younger brother, Takeru (played by Sugita Rairin), sent Heaven's book, but it seems that Nishikori had obtained it himself before it was sent by Takeru.
Comments on social media included, "Two copies of the same book...", "It makes me cry", "It's so sad...", "So he bought Heaven's books himself after all...", "He's a literary assistant after all (tears)", "His unchanging feelings for Heaven are heartbreaking", "Their friendship hasn't changed", "What a great, deep and weighty love", and "It tugs at the heartstrings".
