Teacher Makino works in the health room at an elementary school as a pediatrician. He used to work at a university hospital, but due to a new attempt to have doctors stationed at schools, he was sent to the elementary school. There is hidden story behind that. At the school, he has bushy hair and a sullen look. He nags the students with things like "Don’t sleep in the bed without my permission" and "Stay away from the health room as much as possible.” He is a doctor that complains a lot and carries an attitude, but he can spot abnormalities in children with his excellent observational eyes, and he is able to save these children, their families, and sometimes even the teachers.

Truly a hidden gem
I closed off 2024 with this being the last series that I have watched, and I am glad that I made that decision, as this series has me lost for words, but I will try my best to describe it.I started this series in a whim and was captivated by the ML and the supporting cast, especially the children's actors. They portrayed their characters so well that at nearly episodes, I was crying for some of the scenes. The interaction with the kids made Dr. Makino grow as a person besides thinking as a doctor, which is why this made the series more heartwarming for me. His grumpy personality couldn't keep those kids away, as they saw his infirmary as a safe haven for them once they got to know him. He went further than he was called to, as he deeply wanted all the kids to remain healthy.
The child actors stunned me with their acting skills, as I just was not expecting that calibre of acting from them, especially the younger ones. They were able to pull off emotional scenes, getting me to cry at whatever situation the characters were going through at the time.
I would also like to add that sometimes the ending of a series can just upset me. That was not the case with Hokago Karte. It was simple yet impactful (this is what I personally believe), and it gave a wonderful series a good ending.
I do hope that other people give this series a chance, as they are truly missing out on a wonderful series. So grateful that I stumbled on it on Netfix and that I watched it.
Feels like a warm hug!
This 10-episode dorama radiates warmth and offers valuable insights into children's lives. It tackles not only physical healing but also emotional recovery of the children, and their development as well. The workplace conflicts resonate with adults, even me who is not a doctor or teacher. Although the pacing falters occasionally, the overall result remains unaffected, it still enjoyable till the end.Kouhei Matsushita shines as Makino-sensei, convincingly bringing this well-crafted character to life. This maybe his best performance to date!
