Lesson Five

Set nearly seven years after graduating from Asahiyama High School, Twenty-Five-Year-Old Futaro Uesugi finds himself on his third year teaching English at a Prestigious Tokyo High school named Kaisei High. It's a school where the students are expected to be the best of the nation, and therefore the teachers must be too. Futaro has had little genuine human connections for several years and has reverted to his life as a recluse, but the arrival of a fresh new college graduate--and old friend Itsuki Nakano-- will challenge the way he's been living life all these years and perhaps even help him finally settle the score with his past self.
