Based on a shounen manga by Koji Kumeta serialised in Shounen Magazine.

Nozomu is one of the best employees at a multilevel marketing for health foods company, but he is horrible at dealing with females and lotus roots. One day, he got chased around as a traitor of HAMASHO@religion-he-didn`t-believe-in. Under the orders of the founder who acts and looks like the Gundam character Degwin Zabi, a group of girls with busts of Im attacked Nozomu. After barely escaping with his life, he arrived at the all-girls` school in Ashizurimisaki in southern Japan. He was mistaken for a new teacher and placed upon a platform, but on the first day, he obtained the incomprehensible nickname of "Left Wing Guerilla". In despair from the bizzare nickname, he resolved to die, but a girl under the cover of marriage approached him, a girl who came from a country that seemed to have never heard of the phrase, "We`re all going to die, anyway".
