Wakako Zake

Season 5 Episode 12: Exceptional Fugu Sashimi

It's busy season. Wakako (Takeda Rina), who has been working day and night without time to go out for drinks, makes a reservation and goes out to enjoy fugu sashimi, since it's a day off and after payday. After ordering fugu skin ponzu and fugu sashimi, Wakako asks the waiter what sake to pair it with, and he recommends "Hakurakusei" from Miyagi, which is said to be the ultimate sake to drink with food. After enjoying the natural tiger fugu with lukewarm and hot sake, Wakako regains her energy and overcomes the most difficult part of work. The feeling of accomplishment makes her tiredness feel good. On days like these, she is drawn to the lights of a bar. When she passes through the familiar noren, she is warmly welcomed by the usual members, including the head chef (Nozoe Yoshihiro)...
