Synopsis

Seiran Gakuen is an exclusive private boy's high school. It is the start of the summer break. Yoshikuni (Tsubasa Imai) has decided to spend this year's summer at the school's Shoraikan dormitory, as have Mitsuhiro (Ken Miyake), Kanji (Shingo Murakami) and Iwatsuki (Satoshi Tanaka). All four boys have their own reasons for not going home for the holidays.

Yoshikuni's girlfriend is Hiroko (Maiko Yamada), but his own reasons, he tells her he doesn't want to see her for a while. Hiroko isn't satisfied with this but Yoshikuni avoids her.

On the first day of the holidays, Yoshikuni and Mitsuhiro set out to buy food for dinner. They bump into Osamu, a day student. Hiroko and her friend Aki (Reiko Suoh) turn up and Aki takes Yoshikuni to task for dumping Hiroko for no apparent reason. Hiroko can't take it any more and bursts into tears. Takagi (Yuta Yamazaki) who lives in the dormitory next door sees this. Some days later, Mitsuhiro's step-mother Keiko (Reiko Takashima) visits the Shoraikan dormitory. He is cold-hearted towards her, like a different person.

twisted but not unbearable

with johnny's jrs filling out the cast, i was expecting a teeny-bopper kind of drama o_o but was pleasantly surprised tat they werent just teenage-heartthrobs who intend to rack teenage attention for as long as they can.

the drama is sort of dark & twisted, but it portrays the more 'unseen' side of japan's teenagers (not the usual mini-skirts, bed of roses lifestyle), which is actually quite eye-opening. may be hard to grasp at times but may be quite entertaining if u did get the story

not recommended
