Right after the Great East Japan Earthquake, the only commercials on TV were from the non-profit Ad Council. One of them featured a touching children's poem by Misuzu Kaneko (1903-1930) about the primacy of sibling relationships.
The poet's brief life is dramatized in "Kaneko Misuzu Monogatari: Minna Chigatte, Minna Ii" ("The Misuzu Kaneko Story: Everyone is Different, Everyone is Good"; TBS, Mon., 9 p.m.). Aya Ueto plays Kaneko, whose real given name was Teru. As a girl she was in love with Masahiro (Tsubasa Imai), who believed he was Teru's cousin though he was really her brother. Teru knew this but was commanded by her step-father, Matsuzo, to never tell Masahiro.
Matsuzo hires Teru to work in his bookstore in Shimonoseki as a favor to Masahiro, and then Matsuzo sends Masahiro to Tokyo.
