Question from a Reader:
Is Hashimoto Kanna, who plays the heroine in the morning drama, receiving support from viewers? I’m curious if she resonates with a wide age range of people.
Hashimoto Kanna and “Omusubi”
Recently, I’ve been watching the morning drama “Omusubi,” and I was really excited to hear that Hashimoto Kanna is playing the heroine. However, it seems that
the ratings are struggling, which is a bit disappointing. Morning dramas are national treasures that families watch together or discuss among friends, but it seems this time it hasn’t garnered much empathy. Especially when compared to other works like “Boogie Woogie” and “Ranman,” it appears to be falling short. I’ve felt the same way while watching morning dramas; if I can’t relate to the story or the characters, it becomes difficult to keep watching. Nonetheless, Hashimoto Kanna is truly an enchanting actress, and I’m always captivated by her bright smile and performance. There have been times when I watched her works with friends and was so moved by her acting that I couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wonderful!” I had high hopes for “Omusubi” with her as the heroine, but hearing that the audience reaction has been tough makes me feel a bit sad. Lately, with my own parenting, I’ve had less time to enjoy dramas, but encountering a good story or character always warms my heart. I really hope “Omusubi” becomes a work loved by more people. I’m anxious to see how the final episode will turn out and how the audience’s reactions might change. I’d love for everyone to share any memorable dramas they’ve watched recently or their favorite characters! Please share in the comments what works you love; it would be great to discover new dramas together and have some fun!
