Hakuba no Oujisama

Ozu Kotarou (25) has recently changed careers, leaving his white-collar job behind to become a high school teacher. His new workplace is Odawara High School—an all-girls academy. On his very first day, he leaves a strong impression on the entire school by bluntly declaring that he has no interest in younger girls, especially those underage.

As part of his training, Kotarou is assigned to assist fellow teacher Hara Takako. Takako is a beautiful 32-year-old woman, but beneath her calm exterior, she struggles with insecurities about being single and anxiety about her future. As the two begin working closely together, their professional relationship slowly deepens into something more personal.

A gentle and mature romance unfolds between two adults facing the realities of work, age, and love.
