The very first work ever published by renowned Gambling Mangaka Fukumoto Nobuyuki, written in 1980 when he was using the pseudonym "Fukumoto Tobi". This is the story of Mr. Adachi, an unconventional homeroom teacher, and his tribulations after meeting his new student teacher, Miss Shirayuri Asuka. (Note: Because nobody knew who he would become at the time, the only available scans on the internet are extremely poor and jaded. We have reconstructed it to the best of our ability, but short of redrawing every single line there is no way to perfectly revitalize it.)
