Subculture jokes abound: one teacher tries to hide her boys’ love obsession from her coworkers; another agonizes over her lesbian crush on a homeroom teacher. Failing productivity results when a fascination with portable videogames sweeps through the faculty room and wireless racing battles ensue. The humor ranges from slapstick to subtle, and there’s even a touch of actual romance!
Thanks for the heads-up on this title, it certainly will be one I shall try, will order it. Will have to look at more of the Yen Press releases, already have Sunshine Sketch Vol 1 but I didn't notice this title at all and might have well missed it altogether if not for you creating the thread.

BTW, I've changed the thread title to S.S. Astro.
