■”I don’t want to believe there’s just one more episode left” – Many are already expressing disappointment!
The final episode (episode 9) of the drama “Tokyo Tower” starring Nagase Ren (King & Prince) will be broadcast on TV Asahi from 11:00 pm on June 15th.
Toru (Nagase Ren) and Shishi (Itaya Yuka) confess their feelings to each other and share a kiss at night in Azabudai Hills. With Tokyo Tower in the background, the beautiful scenery and Toru’s pure and honest feelings are revealed once again.
The climax of the story was the confession scene in the 8th episode, which aired on June 8th, right before the final episode. Social media was abuzz with comments such as, “Toru-kun is so sincere. He’s so straightforward,” “It was a beautiful confession,” and “This is such a great quote, I want to use it.” There were many comments “I’m curious to see what happens next week?” and “I’ve been wondering about it for a week and I’m so excited.”
While Toru and his wife were enjoying such a happy life, Shishi’s husband, Hideo Asano (Masahiro Komoto), was secretly making moves. He took the outrageous step of telling Toru’s mother, Yoko (YOU), about the affair. This development drew harsh comments such as “Her husband is too scary,” “Why did he tell Shishi directly? Why did he tell his mother?” and “He’s such a small-minded guy that Shishi probably had his eye on someone else.”
Furthermore, in the eighth episode, a big change occurred in the relationship between Koji and Kimiko, which was supposed to have started out as just a playful one. With only the final episode remaining to be broadcast, there were already voices of “Tokyo Tower loss” with comments such as “It’s already ending next week!” and “I can’t believe there’s only one episode left, I don’t want to believe it,” showing how high expectations are for the final episode.
On this day, in addition to the title “Tokyo Tower,” related words dominated the trending list. All episodes have been ranked number one on TVer so far, and the total number of missed episodes is on the verge of reaching 20 million (calculated by Video Research/April 21st to June 13th). It’s an exciting story that will keep you glued to the screen until the very end.
■The story finally comes to an end tonight!
The final episode will be broadcast on June 15th. Tohru’s mother Yoko finds out about his relationship with Shishi, so Tohru packs up and leaves home.
While staying at Koji’s apartment for a while, Toru tells him that he plans to drop out of medical school and get a job so he can live with Shishi, who he promised to live with. Koji is surprised by Toru’s enthusiasm, but he also shows understanding.
Meanwhile, Koji finally meets Kimiko and confesses his feelings to her, giving her a tearful kiss. Upon learning of Koji’s feelings, Kimiko is unable to hide her wavering heart…
The two couples depict a beautiful yet dangerous love story. Will the story end tonight with a happy ending, or a sad one? The original novel and the movie, “Tokyo Tower,” each have different endings. Be sure to watch the ending to find out what answers Toru, Shishi, Koji, and Kimiko will give in this work.
