HTB Special Drama "Glass Ring and Bandage" ★Broadcast starts on January 17, 2026★
The HTB special drama "Glass Ring and Bandage," which will begin airing on Saturday, January 17th, is set in a children's cafeteria . Taking advantage of this opportunity, we will launch a multifaceted "Let's all support children! Campaign," aiming to help each and every viewer think about "what we should do now for the future of our children."
As part of this effort, we will be holding a food drive at the On-chan Terrace on the first floor of HTB headquarters. We are calling on everyone to donate food and household items that are lying around their homes, and the items collected will be delivered to children in need through the NPO Food Bank Ikoro Sapporo and the Children's Cafeteria Hokkaido Network Secretariat.
First period: December 8th (Mon) to 25th (Thu), 2025
⇒In the first phase, we are accepting food items such as dried noodles, retort foods, canned goods, seasonings, and bottled drinks. Only items with a best-by date of the end of March 2026 or later are accepted (no fresh or frozen foods are accepted).
Second period: January 13th (Tue) to February 27th (Fri), 2026
⇒In addition to accepting food items as in the first phase, the second phase will also collect daily necessities such as tissue paper, detergent, towels, writing utensils, disposable chopsticks, and paper plates.
During the above period, a special food drive box will be set up on the on-chan terrace on the first floor of HTB headquarters.
If you would like to help, please place your items in the designated box. As a thank you, please take home the pocket tissues and On-chan stickers provided next to the box.

As Nijika overcomes various challenges with Sui, she begins to regain her sense of self and gradually becomes more positive.
