00:01Today's Good Recommendation is the story of the popular manga artist Yanase Takashi and his wife Nobu.
00:08The journey of these two people leading up to the creation of Anpanman
00:12What came out was
00:16Tamakichi and Negiko
00:19yes
00:19A valuable work that would later influence his manga career
00:24The two met at a newspaper company
00:28Thoughts about his wife Nobu on the magazine cover
00:35Isn't it a second marriage now?
00:37The journey of two people leading up to Anpanman
00:41Tracing the origins of Takashi Yanase and his wife
00:44Kochi Prefecture was the place where the two began their journey
00:51Look, Anpanman greeted us right away.
00:55Takashi Yanase and his wife Nobu
01:01It is a familiar place as it is the place where the two men worked together.
01:05Yanase is known as a manga artist.
01:14Before becoming a manga artist, I had a different job.
01:19Here it is
01:20Kochi Shimbun
01:21Yes, I'm a newspaper reporter
01:23Hello, I'm Masuda from Good Morning.
01:28Here you can learn about Yanase's precious time as a reporter.
01:31Mr. Murase from Kochi Shimbun
01:33I was also involved in supervising that drama.
01:36This is Yanase-san and Nobu-san
01:41This may be a photo from when he was working at the Kochi Shimbun newspaper.
01:46That's the shot.
01:47Mr. Yanase was born in May 1946, the year after the end of the war.
01:54Joined Kochi Shimbun at the age of 27
01:57At that time, the entire area was burnt to the ground due to a massive air raid.
02:02The town was still in the process of reconstruction.
02:05At first, I was assigned to the social affairs department and wrote articles.
02:11It was from the middle
02:13I will be moving to the editorial department of the magazine.
02:16My colleague at the new post was
02:21It was Nobu, who would later become my wife.
02:25This is a replica of Monthly Kochi after it was first published.
02:32Kochi's lifestyle and culture
02:34Novels by authors with local ties
02:36Information magazine
02:37It's an information magazine.
02:38I agree
02:39After the launch, he was entrusted with
02:42This is Yanase's first manga in commercial history.
02:46Its precious contents
02:49Mrs. Cucumber is hooked on the cucumber's well award Mrs. Cucumber and vegetable cucumber.
02:59A pun-like manga about a girl who has loved cucumbers since she was a child, and who eventually aspires to become a scientist as she grows up. After years of research, she finally invents cucumbers pickled in miso.
03:21It's an interesting idea for a newspaper reporter to draw manga. I originally studied illustration at university, so I think that was one of the reasons. So that's where your manga career began. Right, in the post-war era, when there was still little entertainment, 3,000 copies of the magazine were sold out in just two days after its release.
03:48Yanase, who was highly praised for his talent in manga, started serializing his manga in newspapers. If you look closely at the main character, you'll notice that he has a somewhat familiar look.
04:03Tamakichi and Negikon created some amazing characters in Yanpanman, and I think that this is where it all began.
04:17On the other hand, Nobu-san wrote an article called "Oshare Tokuhon" (Special Edition of Fashion), which is a fashion textbook, in which he writes about suddenly trying to whiten your skin by applying various creams, but fails. In other words, he writes about how cramming for exams is not good. He writes some funny sentences, and also includes this episode that shows Nobu-san's personality.
04:46So, he was doing advertising sales for Monthly Coach, and it seems that there were some ads that didn't pay, and at that time Nobu threw a handbag at them telling them to pay properly. It was amazing. Yes, what did Mr. Yanase think of Nobu's brave figure?
05:08I wrote about my impression of her in an essay, but she was pale and very beautiful, and Nobu-san had a strong core, so they're already getting married.
05:18This secret thought is embodied on the cover of the second issue of Coach of the Month.
05:27Doesn't he look like someone? Nobu: That's right. This is a photo of Nobu when he was younger.
05:39They certainly look alike. This photo is of Nobu after he got married.
05:45She looks just like Mrs. Cucumber from the cartoon I mentioned earlier.
05:53Yanase continued to have feelings for him, but just seven months after they met
06:00Nobu left the Kochi Shimbun newspaper and began training.
06:06Apparently, Nobu had told Yanase that he would be waiting for him in Tokyo.
06:12I think Yanase probably said that he wanted to make a living as a manga artist in Tokyo.
06:21I think he was gently pushing me forward. If Nobu hadn't said that,
06:29I think Yanase-san might have been working at the Kochi Shimbun newspaper for a long time.
06:34It must have been a really good encounter.
06:37Yanase moved to Tokyo with Nobu's encouragement.
06:42This led to him becoming a manga artist, which was his goal, and creating Anpanman.
06:47The origin of this is the turbulent times brought about by the war that the Kamiyanase couple lived through.
06:56True justice is hitting yourself in the face with something simpler
07:05If there is such a thing as justice, then it doesn't mean shooting missiles at something and destroying it.
07:11I think that right now, the first priority should be to help people who are starving.
07:16Anpanman also contains the wish for peace.
07:21For Someone
07:24Even after their deaths, this tradition lives on in Kochi.
07:29It's about 10 years from the second grade of elementary school to turning 18.
07:36He lived in Gomencho here.
07:40Mr. Yanase feared that Gomencho, where he spent his childhood, would become a deserted area.
07:45Gomencho's Specialties
07:48Designing a character with a ginger motif
07:51We installed stone statues and
07:55Doing our part to revitalize the town
07:58In addition, many people from all over the country will visit
08:03A memorial museum will be set up at the city's birthplace market to display new works
08:09In his later years, he especially showed his love for his hometown.
08:13I think my feelings about my own roots have deepened.
08:18I am glad that people in my hometown will accept it.
08:21I think that in the end, he was doing various jobs that gave him a sense of purpose in life.
08:26And now Yanase-san and Nobu-san
08:32In the park near the memorial
08:36The two of them are sleeping close together
08:40Through interviews, I learned that Yanase is from the local area.
08:47Because he loved so many people
08:49That's how Anpanman was born, loved by so many people.
08:53I felt that
08:54And their married life lasted for over 40 years.
08:59In fact, Dokin-chan who appears in Anpanman
09:02It is said that his personality is similar to Nobu's.
09:05Put Baikinman under your thumb
09:07Dokin-chan is playful and truly strong.
09:10It's like the happy days of the Yanase couple.
