Tsunami Umino, the creator of “The Full-Time Wife Escapist” (Nigeru wa Haji da ga Yaku ni Tatsu), which resumed serialization in the March issue of “KISS” released on January 25, is from Nishinomiya City.
And “NigeHaji” began speaking out about the struggles of life — Ms. Umino: Asahi Shimbun Digital
In the article linked above, she says, “Actually, I was born in Nishinomiya too.”
Also, my parents told me that the Gender Equality Center in my hometown of Nishinomiya is apparently holding a lecture called “Understanding the Hit Success of ‘NigeHaji’ — What Does Happiness Look Like?”
It seems that gender equality centers in various regions have been featuring NigeHaji as well, and I’m very grateful for that too.— 海野つなみ (@uminotsunami) 2017年6月3日
On her own Twitter, she also refers to Nishinomiya as her family home.
And on her official blog↓
Thank you all so much for the many comments!
While I was working, my mother called me and said that a bookstore at Nishinomiya Gardens in my hometown of Nishinomiya was holding a Tsunami Umino fair!
She said she got so happy that she told them, “I’m her mother.” I’m happy too.
Thank you so much to the bookstore at Gardens! In my heart, I’ll always be a Miyakko!
She even declared that, in her heart, she’ll always be a Miyakko!
Tsunami Umino is clearly full of love for Nishinomiya!
The TV drama NigeHaji and the Koi Dance became a huge trend, didn’t they?
My kids practiced it like their lives depended on it too.
Serialization Has Resumed
“The Full-Time Wife Escapist” resumed in the March issue of “KISS,” which was released last month on January 25.
We’re looking forward to future chapters of “The Full-Time Wife Escapist.” Nishi2 is cheering for Tsunami Umino!
