Riisa Naka, who was recently just featured as the Actress of the Week, has landed her first starring role as a teacher in “Nihonjin no Shiranai Nihongo,” which starts July 15. The drama is based on a popular comic essay series. The original books are a collection of stories about a Japanese teacher, and they deal with aspects of the language that even native speakers get wrong.

Naka plays Haruko, a young woman with a dream of becoming a high school teacher. Her former teacher offers to get her a job if she takes on a 3-month position teaching Japanese to foreigners. Her students, which include an anime otaku from France, challenge her constantly with difficult questions about the Japanese language. I’m super excited for this. It’s gonna be amazing. What do you think about the plot guys? I personally think it’s interesting.
