Anne Watanabe as Akane, a ghostly girl who has been scaring tenants for more than twenty years, she was once a teacher, but tragedy struck and even after her death she remains, literally, tied to an apartment. Over time, she forgets the events that brought her to this house and no longer remembers why she is here. When a new tenant, Koyama Akira, moves into the apartment, she begins to scare him with all the passion inherent in the ghost, but she got a “hard nut” who, nonsense, sees her perfectly. Gradually, the relationship of the tenant and the ghost is established gradually, and later they jointly begin to solve life problems that arise on the professional path, both for the class leader and for the ghostly girl trying to understand the long-standing tragedy. What happened 27 years ago? Why did Akane die?
As long as there are schools, students and teachers, this work will remain relevant. The drama examines the educational system in Japan, but if you look objectively, some aspects can be attributed to Russian schools.
There are four camps, teaching staff, students, parents and the education committee, where no one wants to be responsible for what is happening in the school. Teachers are silent, students keep their distance and do not trust each other, parents shift the responsibility for education to teachers, but if anything goes wrong, they begin to interfere in the work of the school, calling for accountability, if it does not work, then the “heavy artillery” in the form of education committees is used. In 11 episodes, the example of one class examines several situations that can happen in any school. Events develop in a chain from one student to another, capturing the whole class in one whole tangle. Learn to be an adult and have the courage to admit your mistakes to yourself. Tell others that you will always be responsible for your actions. This is the main problem, the immaturity of the hero.
The value of the material is not immediately recognized, but is revealed gradually. Episode 4 is especially good when the intensity of passions is strongest. It must be understood that any action is followed by consequences, whether it is good, evil, even indifference and non-interference carries the trail of history.
Teacher-student, teacher-committee, teacher-parent, parent-student, student-committee, parent-committee, interaction does not always occur directly, it can be indirect. But what drives each of the participants? Are they ready to come to an understanding? Who really has to decide what happens in life?
The conclusion is given by a quote from the drama “In your life, you make the decision, not your parents.”
