Plot

Noriko Ayukawa is a beautiful and dedicated, if rather conventional, teacher. A new addition to her class and “problem child”, Kento, is said to be a genius on a par with Edison. Could it be that Kento really does have boundless potential? This Edison in the making keeps Noriko off-balance by constantly asking “Why?” and “How?”

Comments

Clarkdale44 Mar 20 2014 2:56 am WOW, just WOW... It was extraordinary enough that i jumped off my seat in every episode. Loved the cast of Kento Hanabusa(Yuya). I am impressed, that's how geniuses are made. We usually can't even think of such questions or simply ignores it thinking the obvious. Even i think how and why everything in the world works. Is it a wonder of nature or science. Anyway i loved the cast of Noriko Ayukawa(Ito Misaki). She was great in as a teacher. I think she can do more similar roles in the future. Every episode is a masterpiece and touching deep emotions.

Its really a great drama. I wish it would've gone further than Ep 10. Story seems incomplete.

I will give it 10/10 no doubt(Superb casting... Fantastic storyline)
