Four Oretachi no Tabi cast members reunite for 50th-anniversary special

Four main cast members reunite for a special marking 50 years since the Japanese drama Oretachi no Tabi began airing in 1975.

Masatoshi Nakamura, Tasaku Akino, Ken Tanaka and Nana Okada travel to locations in Tokyo and Yamanashi that featured in the series.

They revisit places tied to the show, including Inokashira Park and the former site of the characters’ apartment, now a parking lot.

The actors share memories from filming, including a story about Nakamura slipping into a muddy fountain while shooting the opening scene.

The reunion looks back at the drama’s lasting connection with fans, with local residents joining the cast at a Yamanashi inn that hosted filming.

The group also sings the series’ theme song together, while Nakamura and Okada recreate a scene from the show.

BS Nippon TV is scheduled to air the special on Oct.

25, from 5 p.m.

to 6:55 p.m.; a 1995 follow-up drama is scheduled earlier that day.
