Plot
Sakaki Makio, also known as “Tornado” is a tough 27-year-old high school drop-out. By academic standards, he’s pretty dumb. His father decides to force Makio to return to high school to receive his diploma and he asks an old friend who happens to be the principal of a nearby school to admit Makio. If Makio doesn’t graduate, the position of boss will be given to his younger brother, Mikio.
Furthermore, he must pose as a 17-year-old during school hours and in the presence of any classmates or teachers outside of school. If his cover is blown, it would be the end of his high school career as well as his hopes to become boss. Things start out rough and tough as Makio’s violent temper is tested. As the lessons and days go by he learns there is much more to school than just tests and studying.
Review
This was a more interesting J-Drama because I couldn’t stop watching it, but at the same time felt like a mediocre show. It wasn’t anything ground breaking, but had good flow and kept you interested. That being said check it out if you want something fun to watch which is what I like most of the time.
As for the show itself. One of the things that bugged me was how much effort he put into everything thinking for some reason no one would find out who he was or how old he was. However, I did think he handled very well once it all came down and had a good ending to the story. Unfortunately, though, at times you just wanted to slap a few of the characters, but they were well done and everything comes off pretty good.
I really recommend this for a good leisurely show to watch especially if you are trying to fill some time between other shows or are busy but still want to watch something.
