Tanaka-sensei is the popular homeroom teacher of Class 11-A at Sendai
Academy, adviser to the soccer club and one of the most influential
teachers in the school. Naturally charismatic and inspiring, his classes
have always done well and many of his students in the five years he's been
teaching at Sendai have gone on to successful college careers. He is
himself a Sendai graduate and a classmate and friend of Yoshida-sensei who
advises the Poetry Club.
Nobody knows, however, that Tanaka-sensei has violated the prime taboo of
his profession by falling in love with a student. He met Yuuko three years
ago when she was in Sendai's junior high and they eventually fell in love.
They haven't gone out in public together since he became Yuuko's homeroom
teacher this year, and he has consistently refused to take advantage of her
although the temptation is very strong. Deep down, Tanaka-sensei is deeply
torn and fearful over his feelings for Yuuko -- he senses that it's wrong
for him to be in love with her, but just can't give her up. He has
sublimated his desire for her into a desire to see her become strong,
secure and happy at any cost to himself. If they can just hold out and keep
the secret long enough, he plans to propose to her when she graduates (but
has not told her so).
