   Shunichi Asano arrives in Obama City, Fukui Prefecture, as a rookie teacher at Wakasa Fisheries High School, a school proud of the canned mackerel produced as part of its curriculum. However, none of the disengaged students pay attention to him, and fellow teacher Masaki Kurose delivers bleak news: the school is slated for imminent closure due to declining enrollment. On his way home, Asano catches sight of student Nami Sugawara dancing with pure vitality—a striking contrast to her dull apathy in the classroom. Inspired, Asano tries connecting with his students, only for an offhand remark—"Couldn't we make space food?"—to ignite an impossible dream, even as JAXA official Makoto Kijima begins drafting strict domestic space-food safety standards.

   2. The Teacher Struggles with the Requirements to Send Canned Mackerel into Space, But the Students...

   Asano begins researching the rigorous requirements set by space agencies and quickly discovers that obtaining NASA's HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) food hygiene certification is an absolute prerequisite. However, the school's old processing lab is severely outdated, and local fishermen face hardship from massive jellyfish blooms damaging fishing nets. While Asano scrambles to find solutions and secure funding, the first-generation students step forward, realizing they must take responsibility for transforming their own cannery if their dream is to stand any chance.
