Transcript
00:00My name is Rui Tanaka, 23 years old. I'm a rookie teacher working at a night high school from this year.
00:06The most important thing is the relationship with the students, but...
00:11Good morning!
00:14She's ignoring me again today.
00:17Rina Miura, a third-year student, the school's number one troublemaker and delinquent, and one of the students
00:24I'm responsible for, but she's completely rejecting me.
00:28How is Rina doing?
00:30She's still completely ignoring me. Are you sure it's okay with me?
00:34You're her last hope.
00:36This person is the vice-principal here and my benefactor who recommended the teaching path to me.
00:42As long as I'm entrusted by the vice-principal, I want to do my best, but...
00:48So the next question is...
00:50The school atmosphere is free, which is good, but isn't it a bit too free?
00:56Please be quiet.
00:57Sure thing.
01:00And Rina, wake up.
01:04That expression.
01:06We're in the middle of class, so...
01:09I was sleeping comfortably and you woke me up.
01:13I'm sorry.
01:15No, I shouldn't just apologize. I need to find a way to open her heart.
01:20Be careful on your way home.
01:23I know.
01:24It's dark outside.
01:26Well, it's night, you know.
01:30By the way,
01:31I don't want to be worried by a grinning and chatty guy like you.
01:37Chatty?
01:39At this rate, I won't be able to get along with anyone.
01:42Oh, Mr. Rui!
01:45Thank you for the easy-to-understand lessons today, too.
01:49This person is Tokiko, the oldest in our class.
01:53In her younger days, she was busy with the family business, and at the age of 70, she decided to start learning again.
02:00Always calm and kind, she's a senior in life whom the students rely on for various things.
02:07Um, how can I get everyone to open up to me?
02:11Well...
02:12First, you need to open your heart.
02:16And don't give up. You're a teacher, so you'll be fine.
02:19Thank you. Oh, please be careful on your way home.
02:23No need to worry. My ride is coming.
02:26Not giving up, huh?
02:28And so I continued to experiment for the sake of the students,
02:32reading educational books every night after class, even if it meant coming home late.
02:38But having knowledge alone...
02:40Maybe being a teacher is just impossible for me.
02:43Wait!
02:45What's this?
02:46Hey, let's hang out like we used to!
02:50I've had enough!
02:51He seems familiar to her, but...
02:54Come on, it's fine. Let's go!
02:57Wait!
02:58I don't know what kind of relationship you have, but my student doesn't seem to like it.
03:03You're my...
03:05What's your problem? You don't know me?
03:08I don't know.
03:09Hey, my name is Ryo!
03:12I'm the former leader of the legendary biker gang, Star Emperor.
03:16Uh, didn't that disband?
03:19Yeah! I'm also the leader and belong to the Japanese mafia, and Rina is my girl!
03:25Used to be.
03:27She says used to be.
03:29Shut up! Keep blabbering and you'll regret it!
03:33Leave it! He's my problem.
03:36No, you can't. Go home.
03:39What are you talking about? A guy like you?
03:42Protecting students is the teacher's duty. You're still someone who needs protection.
03:49Even if I go all out here...
03:51What are you doing?
03:53Tch! Dang cops!
03:56Oh, good timing!
03:58Uh...
03:59Thanks.
04:01I-I didn't do anything! Anyway, it's late, and I'll walk you part of the way.
04:06Su-sure.
04:08Huh? Did she just become more cooperative?
04:12So, who was that guy from earlier?
04:15Uh, a punk I briefly dated in middle school.
04:19Lately, it seems like he's wandering around without going to high school.
04:23Briefly, huh?
04:26Well, I can't really criticize others.
04:30No, no! It's completely different!
04:33Huh?
04:34You may sleep during class, but you earn your credits, attend every day.
04:39You're a serious high school student. You're totally different from a guy like him.
04:44I've never heard someone call me serious before!
04:47Uh, this is where I live.
04:50No, I can walk you to your...
04:53No! This is my home!
04:56Oh, right. Her family runs a cafeteria here.
04:59Well, see you at school tomorrow!
05:02Yeah, see you tomorrow.
05:04She said goodbye to me for the first time!
05:07Alright, let's keep this up!
05:10Welcome!
05:11Sorry, it's just me.
05:13Well, just sit wherever you want, huh?
05:17Why the heck are you here?
05:20Why? I was hungry.
05:22Oh, jeez.
05:24So, what are you having?
05:27What do you recommend?
05:29Decide that yourself!
05:31Well, today's special is fried mackerel.
05:35Then I'll go with that!
05:37Sure, sure.
05:38Mom! The daily special, please!
05:41During the day, she helps out here.
05:44No wonder she's tired and sleeps at night.
05:46Sometimes, you can't understand things just by looking at the surface.
05:51Here you go!
05:52Thank you for waiting!
05:55Oh, that was quick!
05:57Uh, um...
05:59Hello!
06:00I'm Rina's mother.
06:02Oh, how do you do?
06:04Thank you for always taking care of me!
06:07No, no. It's such a pleasure to have you visit the shop.
06:11The cheerful mother then explained her complicated situation.
06:15Once, this shop was managed by Rina's parents together.
06:19However, Rina, stubborn like her father, and he never got along, always quarreling.
06:25Unfortunately, her father passed away due to illness before they could reconcile.
06:30Moreover, he had apparently served as a guarantor for a friend, leaving them burdened with a substantial debt.
06:38Oh, since then, Rina has been helping with the shop, putting school aside.
06:43So that's how it was.
06:45I made her attend high school, but...
06:48Just the other day, she mentioned for the first time,
06:52my current homeroom teacher is surprisingly a good person.
06:56Eh?
06:57Mom!
06:58Don't say unnecessary things!
07:01Geez, hurry up and eat it before it gets cold.
07:04Uh, yeah, thanks for the meal.
07:07Huh?
07:08This is incredibly delicious!
07:12Right?
07:13Well, it still doesn't compare to dad's cooking.
07:17Oh, I'll bring the money for the school trip another time.
07:21And here's a coupon for set meals!
07:24Hey, mom!
07:25Don't try to make him a regular!
07:28I'll come again tomorrow!
07:31What the heck?
07:33Since then, I started visiting Miura Diner before work.
07:37The exquisite taste was of course a draw, but I also enjoyed seeing a different side of Rina compared to her classroom.
07:44Here.
07:45It's on the house.
07:47Uh...
07:48With that skinny body, I'm worried, okay?
07:52Thank you! I'll get bigger to protect you!
07:56I didn't ask for that much!
07:58And drink class.
08:00This is...
08:03I understand she's tired, but I can't just let her sleep.
08:07Hey, Rina! Wake up!
08:11I'm awake!
08:14No, you look like...
08:16My ears are awake.
08:18Oh my!
08:20You two seem to get along well!
08:23Hey, Toki!
08:25It's not like that!
08:27The atmosphere seems to be getting better!
08:30If things continue like this next week...
08:33Finally, the long-awaited school trip arrived.
08:36Although it was a small-scale trip with optional participation,
08:40covering nearby tourist spots for one night and two days,
08:44our class, having become close, was buzzing with excitement.
08:48Surprisingly, Rina prioritized everyone's preferences, showing concern for their feelings.
08:54Rina, is there anything you want to eat?
08:57Uh, no.
08:59I'm fine.
09:01Uh, how about, uh...
09:03that... thing?
09:05No, she's so adorable with these unexpected interests!
09:10Sure, why not? All right, let's all line up together!
09:14Oh, yay!
09:16Our class has truly become great.
09:19Hold on!
09:20Hey, you guys! Don't. Cut. In. Line.
09:25Huh?
09:26Isn't she the girl Ryo mentioned?
09:29You guys are as lackeys, huh?
09:31Just leave already.
09:33What was that, punk?
09:37Since everyone's here, let's handle this calmly.
09:40Even though she's the boss's girl, she's playing with these losers!
09:45Huh?
09:46What did you just say to my students?
09:49Uh...
09:50You better get back in line or disappear. Choose quickly.
09:55Is that Ink?
09:56You can't be!
09:58Isn't he the first generation leader of Black Emperor?
10:02We need to report to Ryo!
10:04I inadvertently revealed my past. I thought they wouldn't know because of the generational difference.
10:11Seriously?
10:13I heard he was the scariest leader ever!
10:16Well, let's regroup. Uh, wait. I messed up big time!
10:21It's okay. It wasn't intentional, and you were planning to erase it, right?
10:28In the end, you protected the students. Don't worry about it.
10:32Even though what I had finally built up was destroyed in an instant.
10:36Back to square one. No, even worse.
10:40There you go.
10:42Eating alone doesn't make the food taste good.
10:45Rina, thank you, but aren't you scared?
10:48I'm the same kind too, you know.
10:51But really, the legendary first generation leader?
10:55Yeah, but rumors tend to exaggerate.
10:58Yes, indeed. I was once the famous first generation leader of Black Emperor in this town.
11:05However, it all began when misfit friends without a place at home or school naturally gathered.
11:11Among them were motorcycle enthusiasts, and I became the practice canvas for a friend aspiring to be a tattoo artist.
11:19Gradually, the group grew in size, evolving into a mere biker gang.
11:24Nevertheless, I was always ready for a fight and did as I pleased.
11:29At that time, the only one who extended a helping hand was…
11:33At that time, I was at another high school.
11:36You really don't hold back when talking about yourself, but I'm grateful.
11:41When I transferred here, there were many kids like the old you.
11:45I thought he could understand and recommended teaching to him.
11:49So that's how it was.
11:51Sorry, I shouldn't have called you chatty.
11:55No, that's not the issue.
11:58Rina!
12:00It's better not to talk to that guy.
12:02It's dangerous!
12:05Rina, you should go over to everyone.
12:07Why? Everyone has their secrets.
12:11But…
12:12He has proven that even kids like us can grow up to be respectable adults.
12:17He was the first teacher who didn't abandon me.
12:22Rina!
12:23I agree. I believe in the present rather than the past.
12:28Tokiko!
12:30Sorry, we were wrong!
12:33What those two said is right!
12:35Everyone!
12:36All right, let's all eat together!
12:39Yep, I'll take some meat too!
12:41Hey, wait!
12:42And so, starting from the next day, our class became even closer.
12:47We enjoyed the school trip to the fullest until the very end.
12:51Hey, try this!
12:53I can't do something like this at all!
12:57And…
12:59Whoa!
13:01Hey, do it again!
13:03It's not that impressive.
13:07Rina, is something wrong?
13:09Nope.
13:11It's nice to become popular, huh?
13:15That's also thanks to you.
13:17Thank you.
13:19I didn't do anything special!
13:21Come on, Rina, give it a try!
13:23A punch!
13:24No, I can't do it at all!
13:26And…
13:28Oh, you're stronger than me?
13:31Several days later.
13:32All right, who knows this place?
13:35Me!
13:36The atmosphere has improved even more after the school trip.
13:39Well, Rina is still sleeping.
13:42Hey, Rina!
13:44Wake up!
13:46I'm awake!
13:48You scared me!
13:49Seriously, such a cute person!
13:53You two make a lovely pair!
13:56No way!
13:57It's not like that at all!
14:00Of course, my visits to the cafeteria before work has continued.
14:05Here, today's a big service again!
14:08It feels like it's increasing day by day.
14:11I like guys who eat a lot, you know?
14:14Let's eat!
14:15Oh, dear.
14:16Teacher, please take care of Rina even after graduation.
14:21Hey, Mom!
14:22Don't say unnecessary things!
14:25Graduation, huh?
14:27The fulfilling days quickly passed, and graduation was already in sight.
14:32Despite feeling a bit lonely, everyone started preparing for their respective paths.
14:37All right, fill this out and bring it for the individual counseling session.
14:43Oh, Rina has already decided on her dream, hasn't she?
14:47However, a few days later...
14:51You lost the paper?
14:52You wrote on right away!
14:55Sorry about that!
14:57By the way, what did you write?
15:00Well, I wrote that I want to become a teacher, too.
15:07It's impossible right away, so I'll study and save money first.
15:12But I'm just...
15:14No way!
15:15You'll definitely make it!
15:17I'll support you with all my might!
15:20What's with you all of a sudden?
15:23But thanks.
15:26Sorry, I got a bit too excited.
15:28Wait!
15:30Just a little longer.
15:32Keep holding.
15:34Oh, she's a student.
15:36My heart is pounding.
15:38Hey, after my graduation...
15:43That sound!
15:45Those guys.
15:46They're just provoking and running away scared.
15:49It might be troublesome, but don't engage with them, okay?
15:53I know.
15:54If we cause trouble now, I won't be able to graduate.
15:57She's become an adult.
15:59After graduation, it's going to be different.
16:02I have to support her as a teacher.
16:04Afterward, everyone enjoyed their last days as high school students,
16:08gearing up for graduation.
16:10As the initial homeroom teacher, parting ways with everyone was quite heartbreaking.
16:15Amidst all this, my feelings for Rina had become something special.
16:20However, I couldn't express it naturally.
16:22And finally, the last day arrived.
16:26Thank you so much!
16:28See you again!
16:30Stay well, everyone!
16:33Aren't you crying too much?
16:36Mom, lend him a handkerchief.
16:39Why are you even crying?
16:43Well, it's because you're graduating from high school.
16:48Thank you so much.
16:50No, thank you!
16:53Whoa!
16:53Sorry for interrupting the emotional moment.
16:56You!
16:58Sorry, but today is an important day.
17:00Leave, please!
17:02We came because it's an important day, right, Rina?
17:05A punk like you can't lead a normal life now.
17:09That's...
17:10Hey, you!
17:12Huh?
17:13Rina is already a respectable individual.
17:15No, she's important to me.
17:19If you're here to disturb her new beginning...
17:22Wait!
17:22If trouble happens here, you won't be able to continue being a teacher.
17:26It's okay.
17:28If I can see you graduate, that's enough for me.
17:31Ah!
17:32So, you're still the first generation leader.
17:35But now I'm...
17:37Black Emperor has been disbanded by me.
17:39Don't use that name casually.
17:43Well then, right now, I'm part of the Koiwa group.
17:46The mafia you know.
17:48Is that so?
17:50Then I won't hold back.
17:52Even if I have to quit being a teacher, I will be with Rina.
17:56Hold on!
17:58What is it, old lady?
17:59Don't get in the way!
18:01Tokiko, it's dangerous, so please step back.
18:04It's fine to be young, but lying is not good.
18:08Huh?
18:09Are you really from the Koiwa group?
18:13Yes!
18:14Let me confirm that.
18:17Lady Boss!
18:18Congratulations on your graduation!
18:21What?
18:22What is this all about?
18:24My husband used to be the boss of the Koiwa group.
18:27But he passed away due to illness and the group disbanded.
18:31I started a second life.
18:33Even now the young ones take care of me.
18:36We'll follow you forever!
18:38Could the family business be this?
18:41So, this young man is using the name of our group.
18:46Sorry!
18:48Sorry about that!
18:50Oh well, thank you for everything.
18:54No, thank you.
18:55But from now on, fulfill your best friend's dream.
19:00Rina, you dropped this.
19:03Huh?
19:04I-I thought I threw that away.
19:08Huh? Be my bride?
19:10Sorry, it's just a childish dream.
19:15But if I had to choose the most imaginable dream,
19:20it would be that, if you want to laugh.
19:24No, let me make it come true.
19:26Huh?
19:28You're already an indispensable part of my life.
19:30Starting tomorrow, I want you by my side.
19:33Not as a student, but as my girlfriend.
19:36You...
19:38You're unexpectedly cool, aren't you?
19:43Looks like I need to live longer.
19:46I...
19:47I love you.
19:49Wait!
19:50Today, we're still teacher and student!
19:53After that, I continued teaching under the vice principal's guidance,
19:57witnessing the growth of various students.
20:00Rina helped at the store while studying hard,
20:02and entered a prestigious education university as a scholarship student.
20:07Miura Diner, with Tokiko and her underlings' assistance, remained successful.
20:12On the other hand, I haven't seen Ryo in the city since that day.
20:17And after a few years, finally...
20:20Congratulations on your marriage!
20:23But really, Rina has become a teacher now.
20:27She's become quite a good teacher, according to the rumors.
20:30Oh, truly my daughter.
20:35Is it really that impressive?
20:37Well...
20:39In front of Rui, I'm still a student though.
20:42Hey!
20:44Right?
20:45My best teacher?
20:48Yeah, sure!
20:49Yes, Rina, who was once the school's biggest troublemaker,
20:53successfully achieved two dreams.
20:55Becoming a teacher and fulfilling the dream of being my wife.
