Scriptwriter Ryota Furusawa presents the biggest controversial work of the century, “What to do with Ieyasu” (NHK). This time as well, our editorial department will tell you the truth about how bad it is.
“First of all, the script is completely useless. Despite the many unnecessary scenes, the portrayals of the characters are fluent and particularly terrible, canceling out the topicality of the gorgeous cast. It is undeniable.It would be more meaningful to cut this waste and reduce the broadcast time to 30 minutes, and broadcast the news in the remaining time.”(Media manager)

Mr. Furusawa, who is in charge of the script, is being held accountable for the notoriety of the popular military commander Tokugawa Ieyasu and the splendid actor.
“It seems that commercial comedy works such as the drama ‘Legal High’ and ‘The Confidence Man JP’ (both Fuji TV series) have a good reputation, but it doesn’t seem to fit the venerable drama of the public broadcaster Taiga.” (Same manager)
Was it nothing more than an announcement of a historical document!?
Because there are too many useless scenes, a certain doubt arises here. It is a false assumption that the bureau’s document is intended to supplement the lack of historical facts and character conflicts.
“Mr. Furusawa’s obsession with ‘useless scenes’ is clearly abnormal, and his adherence is excessive. It makes me wonder if NHK is imposing a quota on him to enter.
Then I guess what the NHK side is aiming for is to use programs such as “History Secret Story Historia” and “History Detective” to feature the parts that were not depicted in the drama. If it is an episode linked to Taiga that is currently being broadcast, it can be expected to be a hot topic, and it makes me wonder if it is a ‘media mix’ strategy within our own station.” (Media Analyst)
However, since the script is so badly received, it seems that it would be better to cut Mr. Furusawa instead of collaborating…
