The long-awaited drama sequel to the smash-hit original manga, which has surpassed 4 million copies sold! Ryo Hashimoto × Akari Takaishi & Director Yuka Eda A low-energy romantic comedy about a trash teacher and a negative-thinking high school girl! The original work is “A Girl Falling from the Sky and a Teacher on the Brink,” serialized in Hakusensha’s “Hana to Yume” since July 2017. This hugely popular comic series has currently reached 19 volumes. Created by manga artist sora, it has earned widespread sympathy for its well-crafted, low-energy, comedic dialogue that embraces serious themes, its uniquely listless character settings, and the precious romance between a teacher and student who never cross the line of their relationship. The comic has become a massive hit, surpassing a total of 4 million copies sold. Returning as the lead from Season 1 is up-and-coming young actor Ryo Hashimoto, who enjoys tremendous popularity thanks to his striking looks and wide-ranging talents, and who also drew attention for his role as the “good-voice guy” in the TBS drama “Maybe, I’m Hearing Love.” He plays Jin Haiba, nicknamed “Haijin” by his students, a physics teacher who is a classic “useless adult” — nicotine-addicted, a gambling addict, constantly broke, and repeatedly engaging in behavior far beyond what you’d expect from a teacher. The heroine is Akari Takaishi, one of the most noteworthy young actresses of the moment, who made her feature film debut as the lead in “Baby Assassins,” earned critical acclaim for her performances in films such as “The Witch of Marriage” and “Baby Assassins 2 Babies,” won the Best New Actress Award at the 15th TAMA Film Awards, and is also set to take on voice acting for the first time in this summer’s film “Your Color.” In this work, she continues to play Mikoto Ochiai, a high-achieving but negative-thinking high school girl. “When the time comes that I can no longer endure being this close to you...” Lesson 2 for the trash teacher finally begins!!

A drama centered on so-called “pro girlfriends” — ordinary women who date only celebrities and athletes. A university student who is a Miss Contest finalist and aspiring pro girlfriend, and an undercover pro girlfriend hiding behind the mask of a pure-hearted college girl, engage in cutthroat psychological battles and one-upmanship between women. What awaits them at the end of their swelling need for validation...?

Upon receiving a report of a murder, Chief Inspector Junichi Oiwa of the Metropolitan Police Department’s First Investigative Division (Takashi Naito), together with detective in charge of driving Michimichi Okuno (Nobuyuki Hanawa), rushes to the scene. The victim, stabbed to death in a back alley in Shibuya, is Kiyo Oshio (Miyu Sakihi), an employee of a food production company. Inside the bag left behind as evidence, investigators unexpectedly find a “roulette-style omikuji fortune dispenser,” the kind once commonly seen in coffee shops. It is also revealed that on the night of the incident, a mysterious woman dressed in Showa-era retro fashion was at the scene. Just then, an audio recording of a power harassment remark made by Kiyo’s boss, Nobu Yoshiyoshi Iiyoshi (Satoshi Hashimoto), president of the food production company, is leaked online. Iiyoshi is engulfed in a firestorm of criticism, and the company’s stock price plummets. It soon emerges that the source of the leak was Kiyo’s secret social media account. According to Kinya Imato (Nano), Iiyoshi’s secretary, there seems to have been some kind of trouble between Kiyo and Iiyoshi... In addition, a photo of a parfait had been posted on Kiyo’s secret account five hours before the incident, and it became her final post. Meanwhile, Detective Makoto Hirai (Yuki Saito) of the scene materials unit, who takes an interest in the Showa-era fortune dispenser, arrives at a certain coffee shop. It is a retro café with a Showa theme, run by Anko Nagai (Aki Asakura), who calls herself a “wandering pastry artisan.” It is revealed that the parfait photo Kiyo last posted to her secret account had actually been provided to her by Anko, and suspicion toward Anko quickly intensifies. But upon hearing the name Anko Nagai, Oiwa remembers a past unsolved case. It was a kidnapping case from 24 years ago, in the Heisei era, involving Anko’s family. Oiwa immediately visits the mother of the kidnapping victim, Tae Nagai (Kaoru Sugita) — and the connection between the kidnapping case and the “Showa” era comes to light!? From Showa to Heisei to Reiwa, Chief Inspector Oiwa takes on a mystery that spans the eras!
