Synopsis
Kujo Rina, the form teacher of Class 3D at Horai High School, welcomes the graduation ceremony without a single tear in her eyes. In this era where it is necessary to give due consideration to various forms of harassment and interpersonal relationships and where a single mistake can turn a person’s life 180 degrees, she spent the year simply determining the appropriate distance and making the right decisions as a teacher. Rina does not feel emotional or sentimental, merely a sense of relief that one year ended without incident as she watches her students leave. She is about to return to the staff room when she is shoved from the back and tumbles down the stairs. In her panic, the last thing she sees is the culprit’s hand with a deep red corsage bearing the words “Class D Congratulations on your graduation”. At the very moment that she registers her own murder by a student and is about to hit the ground, she opens her eyes to find herself in a classroom. It is the first day of the school term. Now standing at her desk, Rina sees smiling students converse with their classmates, and her hand shakes. In her eyes, they are the 30 suspects who will try to kill her one year from now. She starts changing the way she interacts with her students with education that will overturn everything in the classroom and life to truly get to know them and find out the truth. However, in a climate where it is difficult for teachers to convey their feelings to students, Rina prepares to meet her fate.
