School Babysitters

Synopsis

In "School Babysitters," teenager Ryuuichi Kashima takes on the role of caretaker for his younger brother Kotarou after their parents die in a plane crash. Ryuuichi stays upbeat and attentive, while Kotarou, a quiet toddler, cannot fully grasp what has happened. At the funeral, the strict academy principal, Youko Morinomiya, proposes that the brothers live with her and attend the school, on the condition that Ryuuichi works as the school's babysitter. The academy operates a babysitting club to support female teachers with their young children, but it is short on workers. Consequently, Ryuuichi must look after not only his own brother but also a lively group of toddlers.
