Shizuka Ishigami as Hikari Hazakura

Shizuka Ishigami Comment
My name is Shizuka Ishigami, and I will be playing the role of Ms. Hikari Hazakura.
In this work, various teachers and students are involved each time, and Hikari is a physical education teacher!
How will the innocent and a little bit crass teacher behave around the kind and cute student... or what kind of lucky scheme is waiting for her...?

Enjoy the broadcast!　Ha-ha-ha!

Chizuru Tachibana: Hope Yamamoto

Comment by Hope Yamamoto
Tachibana-sensei doesn't show his emotions very much and Tanaka-kun is a couple with a lot of emotional expression.
At first glance, they seem to be complete opposites, but how will their love end up? I would like to play the role of the cool Tachibana-sensei as he gradually becomes cuter and cuter.

Please enjoy the exciting happenings of school life in the anime as well.

Kazuomi Yamamoto as Takashi Takahashi

Comment from Kazuomi Yamamoto
When I read the original story, I thought "Takahashi kun! What a thing to do to the teacher! Why did you do this to me? I would like to get on the momentum of thinking, "Why did you do this to me?

Is it OK for the teacher to be so cute?
Please enjoy the wonderful happenings and the thrill of love in the anime.

Yusuke Kobayashi as Kou Tanaka

Yusuke Kobayashi comment
I was so impressed by Mr. Tachibana's character that I thought, "There are not many characters who are pushed around so much! I am at the mercy of Mr. Tachibana from beginning to end! I want to enjoy playing the role as much as I can!

I want to enjoy playing the role as much as I can!
