This version of sensei shows a homeroom teacher of the Class AB in Grade 9. The teacher’s name is Ebi-sensei (Lobster Sensei). She is also a teacher in charge of discipline (seito-shidou no sensei：せいとしどう の せんせい＝生徒指導の先生) in the school. It is very funny because this commercial exaggerates the strictness of the teacher in charge of discipline.
Each Japanese school has its own school rules, called kousoku (こうそく＝校則). These rules are meant to help students enjoy their school life. Japanese schools provide not only educational guidance, but also general guidance for school life. Many kousoku of schools, like the school in the following commercial, do not allow students to wear makeup and accessories.
(English Translation)

You! Your bangs are too long!
Hey boy! Your nostril hair is a little long…

ReplyDeleteWhen I was a student, the kousoku of the school which I went to was very strict. Now.... I think that it depends on a school.
