Tonari no Seki-kun: The Master of Killing Time

So, today, we'll be taking a look at the Nanboku-cho period.

The Kemmu Restoration in 1333 is widely regarded as the starting point of the period.

Seki-kun, the guy who sits next to me, is always playing with something during class.

1st Period

Dominos

Dominos.

The Kemmu Restoration is defined as

the political period when Emperor Go-Daigo was at the center of power.

Because the government of this period

disregarded the military rule of samurai society in favor of Imperial rule,

the restoration was rejected by the warrior class and animosity spread.

The samurai, Ashikaga Takauji,

fought to return power to the warrior class...

Seki-kun.

Hey! You really shouldn't be doing that.

The teacher's going to see you.

You do know that our history teacher,

Adachi-sensei, gets really scary when he's mad, right?

You really shouldn't be doing that right now.

What?

What's with the "Be quiet, I'm trying to concentrate," look?!

This isn't right.

Seki-kun, you're in no position to be warning anyone right now.

Dominos.

You're seriously playing with dominos during class!

What's that? A see-saw?

Talk about going all out...

Yokoi, read the next part.

Did you not hear me, Yokoi?!
