Synopsis
Hoshi-sensei, a Japanese language teacher at an all-girls school, is at the mercy of his students and colleagues. Students challenge him to their shiritori word games illustrated in their daily notes, convince him to bring a dog into the classroom, and seek his advice on becoming a manga artist, while colleagues drag him along on their rounds to the pub. Matter-of-fact interactions between a cast of unique characters make for an offbeat comedy. (Source: Japan Media Arts Festival, edited)

The synopsis looks like it's an author's melodrama about the importance of teachers from the 90s.

there are nothing melodrama about this manga. it's purely deadpan gag series. i think the closest anime equivalent is Uramichi Oniisan but even more down to earth.

The synopsis doesn't sound interesting at all, to be honest, but it's got Mamoru Miyano as one of the main characters, so i think i'm going to have to check this one out afterall! The staff looks good as well and i really liked Uchi Tama?! from the same studio so....yeah.
