"Being a teenager is so easy!" Romance-less, friend-less, and borderline broke Arakaki Shuji is a 34 year old mathematics teacher at a private high school in Morioka, Japan. He spends his days droning in class about equations and his nights drinking to forget his lackluster existence. He views his students with contempt and as the source of his work and life woes. When a mysterious man offers him the chance to change his perspective and see life from the angle of one of his students, he takes him up on the offer. Arakaki soon learns there is more under the surface to his class and that his students are more than they seem. What begins as a rash decision ends up changing Arakaki's life, and the lives of his students, for the better.
