Mikami Sensei:Okami reveals brutal experience he had in middle school: "It's so dark." What was his real purpose in coming to school? (Spoiler alert)

The third episode of the TBS Sunday Theatre drama " Mikami Sensei " (Sunday 9:00 pm), starring actor Tori Matsuzaka, was broadcast on February 2nd. The story of Mikami (Matsuzaka)'s brutal experience in middle school was revealed, and became a hot topic on social media.

◇The following contains spoilers.

The drama is an original "great reversal story of education revival" in which Takashi Mikami (played by Matsuzaka), a bureaucrat in the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, who wants to change the Japanese education system, takes to the podium at a private high school and stands up to authority while guiding 18-year-old high school students living in the Reiwa era.

In the third episode, Mikami (Matsuzaka) meets with the murderer, Mayama Yuzuru (Hotta Mayu) and talks about the impact the incident has had on the world. Meanwhile, Mikami's student, Kanzaki ( Daiken Okudaira), presses Saejima Yuko (Takako Tokiwa) to find out the truth about the article he wrote.

Towards the end of the film, Kanzaki confronts Migami. He shows him a photo of a young man connected to Migami's past and asks, "Who is this?" Migami tells him that the young man committed suicide after broadcasting a statement in the school's broadcasting room. He says that the young man's name is Migami Kota, and that he is his real brother. When Kanzaki asks why he came to the school, Migami firmly replies, "I can't tell you yet."

This development caused a stir on social media, with comments such as "There's something dark going on," "I have a feeling something is going to happen," "What is Mikami Sensei's purpose really?" and "Time flies."
