TBS will be broadcasting a completely original story called “Caster,” starring Abe Hiroshi, Nagano Mei, and Michieda Shunsuke, in the Sunday Theatre slot, which starts in April.

Shindo Soichi (Abe Hiroshi), a man with the belief that “it’s true that moves the world!”, has spent 15 years as a reporter in the social studies department in public broadcasting, and has since served as a news program anchor, but was drawn over by Kunimizu Oo (Takahashi Hideki), chairman of the commercial television station JBN, and became the main anchor for the news program “News Gate,” which is suffering from a slump in viewership.

Shindo boasts that his mission is to correct the lukewarm news system and that he has come to correct the program, but in order to “telling the truth”, he does not take any means and conducts interviews and investigations under his own rules, making sure to undo existing rules. An unconventional and unconventional man who involves those around him with an overwhelming presence creates a new wind in the Sunday theatre!

As previously reported, it has been confirmed that the unique cast members such as Abe Hiroshi, who plays the main caster Shindo Soichi, Nagano Mei, Michieda Shunsuke, Tsukishiro Kana, Okabe Takashi, Otoi Takuma, Miyazawa Emma, Kikuchi Akiko, Tamaki Reo, Kimura Satoshi, and Kim Mujun will appear on the press floor, but Sasaki Maika has recently been confirmed to play Toyama Saya, a part-time student worker known as “C Group” at JBN.

Sasaki is from Aichi Prefecture. A member of LOVE, a female idol group produced by Sashihara Rino. In the Yoruobi drama “Maybe: Love Can Hear” which aired on TBS from October 2023, she played a young artist who was aiming to make a breakthrough, and she also played the morning variety show “Ravit! He has been active in a wide range of fields, appearing in the film “. Furthermore, it is currently popular among young people, with the largest arena tour in five cities: Saitama, Chiba, Aichi, Fukuoka and Tokyo.

■What is the job of “C Group C” who works on the press floor?

Sasaki plays Toyama Saya, a part-time student worker on the news floor, commonly known as “C Division.” His main job is chores, and he usually peacefully works such as copying manuscripts and replenishing consumables. However, when new news comes in and main caster Shindo takes unexpected actions, the entire reporting floor is in chaos! Toyama is also caught up in the hectic movement of the program staff. Will Toyama be able to deepen his bond with the News Gate staff members as a “Cm C” and successfully navigate the live broadcast?

This is Sasaki Maika, who plays Toyama Saya. I am extremely honored to be able to perform at the historic Sunday Theatre. I’m nervous every day as I’m working with the famous cast, but I want to do my best.

Toyama Saya is a straightforward girl who works hard while stumbling around and gets purely happy and sad about things. Although there is a bit of a lack of reading the atmosphere and a lack of discernment, he is a somewhat unfortunate person who has never missed out on his “face that can work” and is a very unpleasant person. I will do my best to not be defeated by Saya.
