パペットホームズ、大河ドラマなどの好きなテレビ番組やラグビーについて書いています。アフィリエイトはやっていません。／Welcome to my blog. I write about some Japanese TV programmes including NHK puppetry and Taiga Drama, Sherlock Holmes and rugby. I don't do affiliate marketing.
This is a continuation of Manpuku. In 1970, Expo'70 is held in Osaka and Manpei Tachibana plans to develop a new product. The product is also a noodle but it's contained in a kind of paper cup and it can be eaten even in the outdoors. This is modeled on Cup Noodles.
Then he tries to concoct soup for the product and occupies the kitchen in his house. It astonishes his mother-in-law Suzu who lives with his family includes her daughter Fukuko. And Gen, son of Manpei and Fukuko works at his father's company Manpuku Foods and is a member of the project team of the product. He is confused that he cannot keep up with Manpei who is a genius inventor and worries about it. Not only him, other members of the team puzzle over how to develop the new noodle and its container. Manpei who learns the worries of Gen from Fukuko changes his plan a bit.
Sachi, younger sister of Gen is on friendly with an American boy called Leonardo who visits Japan to see the expo. It also astonishes Suzu. And Katsuko Kōda, elder sister of Fukuko bother about her family especially Daisuke, son of her daughter Taka and Shigeru Kanbe who also works at Manpuku foods. Under such circumstances, Manpei's new product will be launched soon.
