Following the broadcast of Episode 5, Atsuko Maeda was seen wearing aT-shirt with the words "Little Boy" printed on the back and "Fool on the Hill Friends" printed on the front. As said episode aired the day after the anniversary of theAtomic bombing of Hiroshima, of which the bomb used was named "Little Boy", the series was criticized by viewers for its insensitivity.[4][5][6]
Following this incident, theHiroshima Prefectural Government received 130 complaints concerning this episode, and a public official called Fuji TV on the telephone to raise concerns about the T-shirt's insensitive nature.[7][8] The City ofHiroshima also received 150 complaints via telephone and email by August 10.[citation needed]
In an interview withJ-Cast News, the manufacturer of the t-shirt explained that this was meant to be a reference to several songs byThe Beatles, namelyLittle Child andThis Boy, as well asThe Fool on the Hill. While they did state that they had no intention to make the connection with the bomb, they also apologized for the incident.[9]
