can someone help me understand, like maybe its a Japanese cultural thing, but why does the school give any care to what he does outside of school? Like if he was drinking on school grounds I'd get it, but at his home? shouldnt that be a parents/guardians issue?
It's kinda like some professional companies in the US. Your behavior outside of school represents the school, some private schools here do the same.

yeah it's mainly a cultural thing, but not necessarily only in Japan, there are many schools where you basically agree to follow their rules at all times with the parents/guardians agreeing to being subject to punishment of breaking those rules even if the infraction happened outside of the school. In the west I've mainly heard it to happen only in private and frequently religious schools.

I went to a private Christian school that had that kind of agreement but I don't remember anyone being actually punished or the school caring about those things in practice, at that point it was only part of the old school manual, by the time I graduated (a very long time ago) it had changed to say that only if the infraction was conducted using the school's uniform and the school authorities had ample evidence about it.

In short,it's a load of outdated bull crap,and is on par with firing someone for a Facebook post they made with an account that doesn't have their real name,meaning you'd have to go out of your way to find that info that quite literally has nothing to do with the job,more so if said post was made ages ago and was long forgotten.

But as also said,it requires someone to actually give a damn,if literally no one told the school,then no one would actually do anything.

In this scenario,at least for public schools,mine have been the most logical,probably the most logical thing the Malaysian school system has ever had,anything that happens off school grounds is handled by the police,with truancy added to the student record,along with teachers every now and then reminding folks to not smoke in front of the school after school,do it anywhere else.

At this point,though,we pretty much have a good guess that the coach had a hand in planing this conspiracy and was the one who actually told the school,if not him,then someone did,because the way his cousin acted by rescuing the goods at the school probably indicates that she said nothin' to no one.

Thank goodness that slow change is occurring in Japan,mostly around jobs,and also thank goodness he managed to use double standards against the coach.

Seems the supposed teen author isn't as weak minded as previously assumed.

Japanese culture is a culture of shame. To put it simply, scandal is worse than crime, if you bring shame to the institution by being found out to be doing something shameful then that is a crime in and of itself. I am actually shocked that a manga is representing teachers that actually are lenient enough to admit they did the exact same shit at his age, when normally they would be aghast at his behavior and punish him with expulsion. Appearance is everything, it is all that matters, more so than the health and wellbeing of the students.

The real problem is treating what they (not really) did a shame. Drinking and having sex are totally normal at their age, and they were in private, so it still shouldn't concern anyone.
This is not cultural anymore, just plain dumb

no, they're high schoolers, as they both go to "Mirage High School" (from the wiki). Even though the age of consent is only 16 in japan, that doesn't mean it's time to have that kind of relationship.
the legal drinking age is also 20.
The teachers said they did that kind of stuff to themselves when they were in high school, not with other people.
I will concede that point on it being private though. I do think that's a bit strict, although I think that just may be cultural bias. This practice is fairly common around schools in Asia, where the overextend policies into homes. Many schools often restrict classes taken outside of schools and even take away their students' phones, despite being personal property.

Something else to bring up. one of the people in the incident was underage for drinking and underage for sex. if you wanna say the mc and fmc were of age, then their kouhai was very much NOT of age in any sense and well. thats a problem innit?

Well, that's a problem if they actually had sex. At this point in the story only the author knows if something actually happened. There is a simple way to prove if it happened or not. Well, I say simple, but if either of those girls had sex before then their hymen would NOT be intact. That would (and should) also be a violation of their privacy to some degree. Or should we just go off hearsay, third party information, and conjecture? Guilty until proven innocent at its finest.

Edit: Also, that PE teacher looks like he was a fap master when he was younger. Probably went to school the next day tired and dehydrated with bags under his eyes. He gives off that kinda vibe, LOL.
