Good morning.
- Good morning. - Good morning.
Good morning Tennoji-sensei.
- Today, you're as beautiful as always. - Really?
Yeah, your hair and makeup is always perfect.
What time do you wake up everyday?
Actually, I'm almost always late. When I was working at the club...
Ahhhh!
- Club? - No no...
I think you can easily do this too Himejima-sensei.
- Really? - Yeah.
All this commotion first thing in the morning?
- Vice principal, good morning. - Good morning.
Will you ever start looking
like a teacher?
Showing up in this flashy outfit
- sets a bad example for our students. - That's right!
Take a look at our vice principal.
Anyway, you should be...
What is it? Is there something on my face?
Ah, I was just thinking your skin is pretty good.
Why do you say that now?
But, if you put some highlight on your cheeks here,
you would look 5 years younger.
Tennoji-sensei, isn't that a little rude to say to the vice principal?
You're like a makeup saleswoman at the department store!
- Sorry. - Right, Vice Principal?
- This takes off 5 years? - Vice Principal?
All right!
Tennoji-sensei!
That was amazing, making the Vice Principal smile like that!
How did you pull that off?
Whoever it is, I always try and find their good points
and praise them.
Even if I don't start off well with someone, I get friendly with them eventually.
Oh, that's just like you.
Just like that? It's just the basics.
Everyone in the nightlife industry knows about it...
Shhhh!
You can't talk about that at school!
Ah! That was dangerous.
That's right.
- Principal. - Please don't surprise me like that.
Well well well. Using your nightlife work experience to get close and friendly,
that way of thinking... is wonderful!
That's why I think you're turning into quite the teacher.
Principal!
Ah, well.
Let's keep this discussion to ourselves.
Keep up the good work.
Yes!
Ah, turning into quite the teacher?
That's what I think too. At first I was concerned but,
you actually are a good teacher. And then,
well a longer dress would be good but,
I actually like a mini skirt a bit better...
The Principal complimented me! I'm so happy!
- Didn't hear me! - Ah, I forgot!
Mikuni-sensei, here.
A present from Southern Sea's Mama.
Huh?
Free bottle service at Southern Sea?
- Can I really have this? - Sure.
- Mama said come whenever... - All right!
Didn't hear me.
The Principal has a lot of hope in me so
I'll have to do my best!
Morning!
- Congrats Nanako-chan. - Thanks.
Congrats!
- Himejima-sensei? - Tennoji-sensei! Sorry to intrude.
Nanako-sensei is the best!
So cute!
What's this?
- It's okay. You're number two. - Two?
Teacher Popularity Contest?
- So close. - Yeah, close one.
- I was just one off! - Don't worry about it.
- Just a little bit more. - Oh!
Did you guys vote?
- Hmm? - Me?
- Did you vote? - I voted!
Sorry!
Ah, your students got a little excited and made this.
Ah, it's fine.
I won't lose the next one.
A friendly competition.
Is Himejima-sensei really that nice?
That's actually a little scary...
Ah, how shameless.
Well, for the time being, Mido Academy's number one teacher is
Nanako-chan!
Number one?!
- Hey, you can't use that word! - Ah!
Look, you flipped her switch.
Tennoji-sensei?
I'm Roppongi's number one, but
I'm number two in 2-Z!?
Himejima-sensei, that number one will be
mine next time!

That Tennoji is crazy.
She's just going to keep digging a hole for herself.
She's always giving off these hints.
I was surprised to find out she was a cabaret girl at first
but now it kind of makes sense.
Yeah, there's no teacher out there who dresses like that.
But, I don't hate it...
What?! So you like girls like Misaki-chan then?
Hoshi! Really?
Oh, of course not!
- What do you like? - But...
Ever since she showed up, things have gotten a bit more fun.
Oh, strange to hear you compliment a teacher.
I'm not really complimenting her.
- You've changed a bit Kazuma. - Where?
You've stopped saying things bore you or make you fall asleep.
And you don't blow up at things as much as you used to!
You guys are the same too.
Anyway,
being in 2-Z used to be some kind of joke but
nowadays, going to school isn't so bad I think.
Ah, worked hard today.
- Misaki-chan, welcome. - Oh, Umi-chan.
- You have a guest waiting for you. - A guest?
Ah, welcome Tennoji-sensei.
Principal!
Cheers!
Ah, that's right!
I've always wanted to ask for awhile but,
Mama, what's your relationship with the principal?
- Ah, I hadn't told you? - Yeah.
He was my teacher at Tamatsukuri High.
- "My teacher"? - I was her homeroom teacher in high school.
Ah! That's what it was.
To be honest, I can't really see Mama like that..
Ow!
And Mama was really cute back in those days...
Ah, no no!
- You can't do that! - Sorry.
So then, why did you have a cabaret girl like me
become a teacher?
Maybe it's the times or the lack of my own power,
but before I knew it, Mido Academy
became a school focused on grades or getting into university.
I just can't seem to find a teacher nowadays
who talked to each student one to one.
If I could, maybe my school would change a bit.
There is someone who could do that for you.
I think she would be
the answer to your wishes.
Really?
She was talking about you.
But to be honest, I didn't think it would be
someone working here.
But then, why do you have to hide the fact
she worked as a cabaret girl?
Yeah, if people knew, she would be more popular.
Yeah, that's right.
My school is an old one, focused on traditions.
The PTA and board of directors would cause an uproar.
I see.
So make sure to do your best not to let it out.
Yeah! Will do my best!
Ah, this is a nice place.
Hmm, where have I heard that voice before?
Thanks.
Hello. Welcome to Southern Sea.
How many people?
Count it out men!
- 1. - 2. - 3. - 4!
4? I see.
Please, this way.
Huh?
We have this.
Ah! That's the free bottle service coupon I gave Mikuni-sensei!
Ah, what is he doing?
Not here!
Not here! Ah!
My coupon!
Where is it!?
It's not here. Not here!
Where is it!?
It's all thanks to you that we can go to a nice place like this.
Of course. But we'll be splitting the bill.
What?
Close one!
Ah, Tennoji-sensei, can't hold it much longer.
Ah, sorry! Principal? Are you okay?
- My arm... - Principal! Principal!
Sorry, sorry...
Hoshi, you're a really loud fan.
- You are. - Really?
- Let's go. - Come on, hurry up.
Stay quiet and hand it over.
You don't want to get hurt, right?
Up to your old lame tricks, Matsudaira?
Huh?
Kujo.
Hey!
Don't get in the way!
You're still going to that stupid Mido school?
Still pulling the same old stupid tricks with your group?
What?
Maybe you need a few bumps to get it?
I don't have any time to waste on you.
It isn't settled between the two of us!
Remember this.
Hey.
Isn't he Matsudaira from middle school?
- Yeah. - Matsudaira,
the one you always argue with?
Yeah, he's basically your enemy.
Ever since he went to Ara High he's gotten more violent.
Hey, you're not going to go after him, right?
Of course not, stupid.
I can't tell Tennoji-sensei I lost her coupon!
Good morning.
Ah, yesterday was so much fun!
Hey, what's up? You guys look really happy.
Ah, Mikuni-sensei.
Last night, we were involved in a few...nightlife club activities.
Ah, how fun!
- I like going out too! - Let's all go out next time then?
Where should we go?
Well, in order to figure that out,
I went ahead and bought this!
- Where's a good place? - Can't wait!
Hmm?
What's wrong now?
Big news! Big news!
Big news! Out of the way!
- I've got big news! - Why so loud in the morning?
Yesterday I went in my dad's room and looked at this magazine. I found something amazing!
- Come here! - Amazing?
Here I go! It's amazing!
Here! Isn't it amazing?
Hmm?
Huh?
Morning.
What?
What are you looking at? What what?
What?
Oh, what now? They're calling me the 2010 number one?
I already quit though, haha.
Ah, no, that's not it!
This isn't what it seems. Uh...
Oh, vice principal? Did my students do something again?
It's not about your students.
What?
It's you!
- It's big news! - Really?
What a development...
Our tradition institution, Mido Academy, hiring a former cabaret girl as a teacher.
Sorry.
I knew you were strange from the beginning.
Coming to school in such short skirts and such high heels!
And all you have are flashy suits? Ah!
Vice principal? Are you okay?
Whose fault do you think it is to let this happen!?
That's right!
Sorry.
Ah, things have gotten pretty bad now.
Tennoji-sensei was number one then?
Ah! Did the principal know about this?
Yes.
What was he thinking!
Perhaps he was just some customer of number one Misaki-chan!?
No!
If the board and PTA hears about this,
imagine the uproar!
Looks like I need to have a
frank discussion with the principal.
Be prepared!
Right.
What a surprise!
I mean, Tennoji was a cabaret girl?
And a number one? Isn't that amazing?
But then why did she become a teacher?
She was probably making more money as a cabaret girl.
Is she going to go back there then?
And after school actually got kind of fun.
I can't believe it got out this soon.
It'll be okay. Our school likes to think things over
so you won't be fired all that quickly.
That's right. The vice principal isn't a monster.
Yeah.
I guess there a lot of opinions
about working a nightlife job huh?
- Tennoji-sensei! - Feel better.
Yeah. Thanks a lot.
What do you think is going to happen to Misaki-chan?
You really think they'll make her quit school?
Hmm, I don't know yet.
But I don't think our school would forgive something like this.
I'm going to get something to drink.
Oh.
See you.
You're Kujo's friend, right?
So what?
Kujo embarrassed me quite a bit last night.
I'm here to fix that!
I won't have someone from Mido making fun of me!
What are you doing with my friend?
Stop messing around!
You're the one who shouldn't be messing around!
Kazuma!
You want to start something!?
Kazuma!
- Kazuma! - What are you doing!?
Stop it! Let go!
Stop it!
- Matsudaira you bastard! - Get over here!
- You want to start something!? - Stop it!
Let's go.
We're very sorry.
Our student caused quite the trouble.
We will do our best to make sure
such a violent crime does not happen again.
That's not what happened!
He threw the first punch.
Be quiet!
Excuse me!
I'm Tennoji from Mido Academy. I'm his homeroom teacher.
What happened?
Ah, just an ordinary fight.
Guess it can't helped with this kind of crowd.
There's no big injuries so just take them back home.
Thank you very much.
As their teacher, make sure they reflect on what they have done.
Tennoji-sensei.
Your students
have yet again caused quite the stir.
It's unheard of Mido Academy to be involved with police affairs.
Police affairs? Kazuma just got wrapped up into all this.
What?
Matsudaira from Arakou has always looked at Kazuma like an enemy, even since middle school.
He's the one who started the fight. Right?
Kazuma saw them picking a fight with me
and came to help me out.
I see.
It doesn't matter who started it.
Kujo came there to beat up that guy.
That's not what happened!
You think I can just stand there quietly when they beat up my friend?
- I can't believe such a story. - Vice principal!
Tennoji-sensei, you don't seem to get it
even after I've told you.
These 2-Z kids just keep causing trouble over and over.
I'm calling a special staff meeting tomorrow morning.
We'll figure out what to do with Kujo Kazuma then.
It seems that it might be too much for a cabaret girl like you
to become a teacher, doesn't it?
At the end, that's what it's come to.
Police, teachers.
No one believes what I say.
You keep saying that I've changed but...
The people around me haven't changed how they see me.
That's the life I have to live!
That's not true! It'll be okay!
I'll talk with the teachers tomorrow about this.
- They'll understand then! - They aren't going to listen to
some cabaret girl!
I don't care about school anymore.
I don't care if they expel me.
- Kazuma! - Wait!
Leave me alone!
So that's what happened?
Mama...I don't know what to do now.
I guess it's like the vice principal said.
Maybe it's asking too much for me to be a teacher?
Why do you think that?
Well...
Because I was a cabaret girl.
If you think that way, then maybe it is pointless.
What?
Do you think it's embarrassing?
About the job here.
To have worked here.
Good morning.
Yesterday seemed pretty tough.
Yeah.
Are you going to be okay for the special staff meeting?
Yeah.
- I guess Kazuma didn't come. - Yeah.
Is it true they're having a meeting about Kazuma?
- Is he going to be okay? - What's going to happen to him?
They won't expel him, right?
Is this Kujo?
We got interrupted yesterday.
Let's settle this one on one.
One on one? I don't mind.
I'll wait at the park by the expressway.
You better come.
If you don't, I'll come to your school or wherever
and find you.
Park by the expressway.
Got it.
What's this one on one?
Are you really going to go?
I said to leave me alone.
You know what will happen if you go fight again!
That's why!
I don't care about school anymore.
You really think it's okay to be expelled like this?
No matter what I say, nothing will change.
That's not true!
She's the only one
who understands how we feel.
It might just be her, but it proves you're wrong.
Hey! The staff meeting is starting!
Really?
We'll begin our special staff meeting now.
Yesterday, Kujo Kazuma from class 2-Z was involved
with a violent crime. We will discuss his punishment.
This recent incident involved the police,
coupled with the many incidents up to now
and the lack of regret for his problems,
there's no choice now except expulsion.
Expulsion?
That's...
I think that's right.
- Can't be helped. - Yeah.
My opinion is the same.
Principal, how about you?
Well, expulsion just feels
like a bit too much.
But principal,
we keep students who cause a bunch of problems like Kujo,
it will be a bad influence on other students.
And it will tarnish the reputation of Mido Academy.
So then, Kujo Kazuma is expelled. Is that all right?
- Sure. - Yeah...
Wait a second!
Of course, it's not good to hit someone.
But, he was doing it to protect his friends.
You're still falling for that story?
I'm not falling for anything.
I don't think Kujo-kun would hit a person for no reason.
Oh, you sounded like a competent teacher there.
What does some just retired cabaret girl
understand now?
Principal, you knew about this, right?
Ah, yes, well...
To me, she seemed talented enough. It was my decision.
If it gets out that Mido Academy hired someone
who worked a nightlife job, the PTA and board would cause an uproar.
The media would have a field day with it too.
It doesn't really matter what your job used to be, right?
That's right. Tennoji-sensei has been working very hard
as a teacher now.
Let me clear up something now.
I have no problem with Tennoji-sensei
worked as a cabaret girl.
But a person who works a job like that
is not suited to be a teacher!
The problem starts with Kujo.
But the problem is all the trouble that class 2-Z
is causing!
How about it, Tennoji-sensei?
Yes, I worked as a cabaret girl.
But I don't think there is anything to be embarrassed about.
I have pride about the work I have done.
Pride? What an exaggeration.
While I was working that nightlife job,
I truly learned about a lot of things.
Meeting a variety of guests every day, talking with them,
listening to their troubles, I started to learn more and more.
People...people's hearts.
You can't judge a book by its cover.
Everyone has a variety of thoughts in them.
And even after coming to this school as a teacher,
I've been able to watch each one of my students.
Class 2-Z has been
called a group of dunces but
if you really look at them, each one of them is unique.
It's the same with Kujo-kun.
To the teachers,
he may seem like a problem child and quick to fight but,
there's a lot of good things about him!
There are times when he may go overboard, but...
To have a sense of justice for his friends,
putting them over himself,
he knows how to take care of his friends.
I've only known him for a brief time, but I know this already.
I don't think Kujo-kun
would hit someone without reason.
That's why I believe him.
No matter what happens, no matter what people say,
even if it's just me, I'll believe him.
Tennoji-sensei.
Um...
There's no evidence that only Kujo-kun was at fault here,
so I'm going to hold off the punishment.
Principal...
Understood.
What?
Vice principal?
To say that much,
perhaps I was ignorant about Kujo Kazuma's situation.
And in regards to you Tennoji-sensei, I won't tell the board.
I'll keep that with me personally.
Vice principal...
In exchange,
the next time anyone from 2-Z causes a problem,
that student as well as yourself will take responsibility.
And you will both leave the school. Fair?
Principal, is that all right?
Ah, but that's...
Understood.
Tennoji-sensei, are you really promising that?
Yes.
I promised to be their supporter.
So, I believe them.
You better come.
If you don't, I'll come to your school or wherever
and find you.
Well, that's the end of our special staff meeting.
Everyone, please return to your usual schedules.
That was close.
What are you guys doing? 2-Z! Hurry up! Back to class! Go!
Everyone...
Ah, where's Kazuma?
Ah, he was just here.
Where did he go?
That guy!
What?!
Matsudaira called him this morning.
A one on one?
Did he go there by himself?
So, you really come.
It's just more annoying to have you keep following me around.
You have some nerve.
This way.
What's wrong? Come on Kujo!
Stand up!
That won't change anything.
Don't make a fool of me!
You bastard! Why aren't you fighting back!?
Over there.
Kujo-kun!?
Kazuma?
- He's losing. - Yeah!
Why isn't he fighting back?
Does he do it on purpose?
Why is that?
What is it!? Come on!
Damn it, those guys...
Kazuma!
Don't come any closer!
Hurry up and fight!
Come on!
This isn't one on one!
Whatever, there's no point dealing with a coward like you.
Let's go!
Kazuma!
- Kujo-kun! - Kazuma!
- Are you okay? - Stay with me!
Ow...
Why did you come here to get beat up?
The next problem is going to get someone expelled right?
Figured that would be a problem.
Was that all?
What do you mean?
You weren't doing it for Misaki-chan?
Kazuma wants you to stay as our teacher.
That's why he got beat up and didn't do anything.
Right?
Huh?
For me?
Nope.
You're actually quite easy to figure out.
Idiot.
- Kujo-kun. - Who's the idiot this time?
Yeah, you could've been really hurt.
I'm just paying you back.
Huh?
You can't just leave over something so simple.
Got it.
Even if they tell me to, I won't!
I promise.
- Okay? - Ow!
- I'm hurt there... - Ah, I'm
so happy to be your teacher!
I'm happy.
Nothing happened to Kujo-kun.
That's Tennoji-sensei for you.
I'll be praying that no more 2-Z students
will cause any problems!
Is it really okay?
Kujo and Tennoji-sensei got away with it.
We had a big chance to get rid of the two of them.
That's right.
Ah, even though we couldn't get rid of them right now,
it's just a matter of time.
Smart, vice principal.
Let's keep our eye on them to see what happens.
Yes.
You all waited for me!
This welcome is a bit much.
You look so happy though.
Everyone!
All right!
2-Z! Let's make sure to do our best!
