Because he is not good at reading and writing, Taketo (Kobayashi Toranosuke) has stopped going to school since middle school and has become a delinquent.At the age of 20, I started attending high school on a night-time schedule, but a year later I still couldn’t remember the words.
Misfortunes never come singly. Yue Ren has recently been entangled by Miura and was asked to participate in drug sales. Yue Ren began to consider dropping out of school.
At this time, the new science teacher Fujitake (Masataka Kubota) came to the fixed-time school where Taketo studied.Tengzhu noticed Yue Ren's sleeping curiosity and invited him to participate in a certain experiment%.
Over forty years old, with the encouragement of her husband and daughter, Angela Koshikawa (GAU) became a student at Higashi-Shinjuku Part-time High School.However, after entering the second grade, she could not keep up with the progress of her studies. When she was about to give up and continue school, her class teacher Fujitake (Masataka Kubota) called her to the physics preparation room.
There, she was surprised to see Yue Ren (Toranosuke Kobayashi), a bad student in her class, being addicted to scientific experiments.Fujitake invites Angela to join the science department, but then she causes an incident at school.
Natori Kasumi (Ito Aoi) is a first-year student who attends Higashi Shinjuku High School on a regular basis. She doesn't like going to class and often stays in the health room. The health room teacher Sakuma (Kimura Fumino) discovered her in her communication notes.Regarding the science content written by himself, Sakuma consulted Totake (Masataka Kubota).
The content in the notes was written in imitation of a certain science fiction novel. Fujitake realized that leaving the health room was a difficult task for Kasumi, so he tried to use an experiment based on that novel to create an opportunity for Kasumi to go out..On the other hand, Sakuma becomes increasingly uneasy as Kasumi overlaps with the students he has been in contact with...
Yue Ren (Toranosuke Kobayashi), Angela (GAU), and Kasumi (Aoi Ito) who gathered for the establishment of the Science Department encountered difficulties in making experimental equipment. Fujitake (Masataka Kubota) wanted toA student in his seventies, Nagamine Shozo (Ogata Issei) also joins the science department.Fujitake hoped to borrow the technology of Chang Ling, who once ran a town factory, but Chang Ling refused.
One day, in Kiuchi's (Tetsuji Tanaka) class, Nagamine clashed with Takehito and other young students due to their differences in values.The situation even got to the point where he could not be invited to join the Science Department.
The four-person team consisting of Taketo (Toranosuke Kobayashi), Angela (GAU), Kasumi (Aoi Ito) and Nagamine (Issei Ogata) officially launched their long-awaited science department.Under the leadership of consultant Fujitake (Masataka Kubota), they set an ambitious activity goal-to participate in academic conferences full of research spirit usually organized by the Science Department and publish research results.
However, a study tour shocked them greatly. The professional level of the presentation far exceeded their expectations, which made the members of the Science Department hesitate to participate.At the same time, Taketo's classmate Mai (Ayaka Konno), who works in a nightclub, notices Taketo's rare depression...
The members of the Science Department decided that the research topic to be published at the society was "Recreating Mars Craters".They learned that reproducing the experiment must be conducted in the computer preparation room with the highest computing power on campus.
Consultant Fujitake (Masataka Kubota) hopes to discuss using this room with the head of the full-time computer department, Kaname (Minamid Reika). However, Kaname is stubbornly unwilling to give up the room.On the other hand, Yue Ren (Kobayashi Toranosuke), who discovered an unexpected point of contact with Kaname, tried to persuade Kaname and took the initiative to talk to him...
Following Hayabusa2, JAXA announced a new planetary exploration project, Project Shine.The project is led by a team that brings together elites in space science, and the leader Aizawa (Aoi Nakamura) is a classmate of Totake (Masataka Kubota) in college.
On the other hand, the members of the part-time high school science club, where Fujitake serves as an advisor, are each worried about how to conduct experiments with homemade equipment.With insufficient budget and equipment, the originally disorganized Science Department gradually began to undergo chemical changes.
Professor Ishigami (Reiko Takashima) has great influence in the budget decisions of planetary exploration projects.In order to achieve the almost ruthless goals she set, Aizawa (Aoi Nakamura) accelerated development at JAXA.
On the other hand, the deadline for registration for academic conference presentations of the Regular Science Department is approaching, and members are beginning to become anxious.Under the watchful eye of consultant Fujitake (Masataka Kubota), Yueto (Toranosuke Kobayashi), who was immersed in experiments, gradually turned a blind eye to the things around him.Just then, the incident happened.
Totake (Masataka Kubota) reveals the true reason for the creation of the Science Department, a move that reunites the Science Department.They also managed to meet the registration deadline for the society publication, for which Taketo (Toranosuke Kobayashi) and Kasumi (Aoi Ito) will be responsible for the publication.
On the other hand, Fujitake received an unexpected invitation from his mentor Inose (Hasegawa Hatsunori), which made him fall into hesitation.When Yue Ren noticed something strange about Tengzhu, the day for the society to publish had already arrived.
