Meaning: School
You find your father with a lid on his head, up in a tree. He yells down at you. “Hey! Welcome to your first day of school!”
You are not happy about this, but you have to do what your father says. So, you climb the tree and sit in the school bench to listen to your father talk crazy talk about all sorts of weird things. This is the worst school in the world, you think.
Reading: こう
It’s just you and one other student at this ridiculous school. Your other classmate is a big trouble maker. It is こういち, the class clown.
Imagine こういち doing dumb things and bothering you and your father, who is the teacher. He throws こういち from the tree and expels him from this ridiculous school.
