The story of a young, idealistic teacher who enters Shirokin Gakuen in hopes of making a difference in the lives of students. Yamaguchi Kumiko is the daughter of a Yakuza boss. Although she is next in line to be the heir of Ooedo Group, she wishes to become a high school teacher. She finds herself in for a rude awakening when she discovers she is placed in charge of Class 3D, which consists of some of the toughest students in the school. She gradually gains the respect from the students, and continues to help these troubled youths out, all while trying to keep her family background a secret.

Half a year has passed, and Shirokin Gakuen has closed down. Yamaguchi Kumiko finds herself a teacher of a few young kids, who don’t really benefit much from her style of teaching. Through some twist of fate, she is offered a job as a teacher in Kurogin Gakuen. She becomes the teacher of a delinquent 3D class which make her previous students look like angels. In order to protect her job, she must again hide her true identity – the fact that she is the 4th generation of the Oedo Family, a prominent yakuza group.

Sawatari Goro now works at Akado High School as a vice principal. Although the head director of the school board specifically orders him to handle the problematic class 3-D, the students are just too much for him. So Sawatari goes far away to a southern island to search for Yankumi, and convince her to work for Akado. Yankumi accepts the offer, only to find that her class (again) is full of punks, where two rival groups of students are always at each other’s throats. Will Yankumi’s strong belief in students and teaching work this time?
