The narrative differs from the one presented in Seishun Anime Zenshu TV series. Bocchan, fresh out of school, embarks on his first teaching role, blissfully unaware of the obstacles that lay ahead. His mischievous students play pranks on him and spy on him clandestinely while his landlord persistently tries to sell him worthless antiques. In an effort to lift his spirits, Bocchan goes fishing and begins to suspect Hotta - his only friend in the village - as the cause of his troubles. However, he soon discovers that this is barely scratching the surface. Subsequently, during a meeting to discuss his students' uncivilised behaviour towards Bocchan, the authorities propose a surprisingly lenient punishment despite the gravity of their actions. Consequently, Bocchan's alleged enemy comes to his rescue. Could his fellow faculty members have lied about Hotta? Bocchan is on the verge of finding out the truth. As further evidence of the dean's wrongdoings emerges, Bocchan and Hotta collaborate to entrap him into his own scandalous escapades!
