Story: Naruse Seiichiro (Eguchi), an employee at a mid-size construction company for 20 years, suddenly finds that his company has gone bankrupt. Just at this time, Naruse's teacher in primary school, Takeichi (Kishibe), comes to Naruse with an offer to work as the principal of his alma mater. Although Naruse is apprehensive of this, he still takes up the offer.
However, Naruse starts to find that there's something weird about his alma mater. On the first day of work, he chances upon a male student being bullied but when he raises this matter to the teachers, they seem undisturbed, do not want to take any action and even use the word -san to address their students. The next day during the school assembly, Naruse is in for another shock when the students sit down before he begins his speech. The teachers do not force the students to remain standing and even say that the students have a right to sit and if they are forced to stand, it is regarded as capital punishment...
Comments: The cast is pretty strong and the story seems quite interesting as well. I'm expecting that ratings may be affected considering this is the first attempt by FujiTV to break the Sunday monopoly by TBS.
