Watari Tetsuya to appear in NTV spring 2013 drama "35-sai no Koukousei"

Watari Tetsuya will work together with Yonekura Ryoko again in the NTV spring drama "35-sai no Koukousei" which begins its run from 13 April at 9pm on Saturdays. The two of them last acted together in the 2008 drama "Koori no Hana" but did not have many scenes together. Last year, they met for a meal through a mutual friend and talked about wanting to work together again if given the opportunity.

Watari will play Asada Yukinobu, the superintendent of schools, who fires principals who are seen to be worthless and incapable and has a nickname Kaiser. He is the only one who knows about Baba Ayako's (Yonekura) past, why she has to enter high school again at the age of 35 and also offers some much-needed advice to Baba when she tries to solve the problems in school. Watari began his filming on 26 March.
