An exchange took place during a News to broadcast concerning a hand-drawn illustration by weather presenter Yoshiaki Okada (岡田良昭). Announcer Chiaki Kuroki (黒木千晶) remarked that part of the drawing looked like the wire mesh of a trash can, prompting reactions from viewers as well.
On News to, broadcast on 26 October, weather presenter Yoshiaki Okada (岡田良昭) introduced a hand-drawn flip chart while reporting on rain. The drawing showed a boy holding an umbrella in the rain, with the sun emerging from a pocket at his chest. After seeing the drawing, announcer Chiaki Kuroki (黒木千晶) remarked, “It looks like a trash can,” and the atmosphere changed from relaxed to tense.
Some viewers subsequently posted on X that they found it uncomfortable to watch, prompting a series of reactions. The program is a successor to News to, and some viewers said it reminded them of the earlier teasing about the weather on Miyane-ya.
Okada explained on the program, “I drew it based on an image of myself as a child,” and said that the pocket at his chest depicted “the sun sleeping in a futon.” The atmosphere at the scene was relaxed, but viewers responded to it in different ways. It ended with a calm response.
