Synopsis
The 23rd NHK Yorudora is Warau Sannin Shimai. The eldest daughter of the Matsuoka family, Kamome, is a lawyer specializing in settlements between men and women. Suzume, the middle daughter, is a popular fortune-teller who has a reputation of being extremely accurate when it comes to love fortunes. However, she's utterly hopeless in her own love life, with little prospect of marriage. The youngest daughter, Tsubame, is a trendy actress past her prime, and because she always seems to fall in love with the wrong men, is also still single. Their father, Kohei, raised the three of them himself after his wife left their family 26 years earlier. One day, Kohei brings a very single and very handsome architect, Hirose Henry, to the house. All three sisters are crazy about him! Who will win Hirose's love in this battle between three sisters?
