School: Juuban Public School
Juuban School District is a set of publicly-operated schools in the Shitamachi region of Tokyo. Schools here share a fairly similar architectural plan - as many stories as grade levels with a fairly nondescript, gray, a U-shaped main school building, athletic fields, and usually a club building. Juuban schools cover every grade level, from elementary through to high school, each feeding into the next. There is also an associated college in the area, though it is for the most part overshadowed by higher-prestige universities.
Juuban's academic achievements are on the whole pretty typical. Students of every level go there, from the super-rich to the super-genius to the occasional poor fool; though many people looking for an exceptional education or specific focuses can find their needs met at the private and charter schools elsewhere, Juuban finds academic challenges for everyone, from the most low to the most high, rather than a chosen few elite.
As far as extracurricular activities go, Juuban has the usual grab-bag determined mainly by student interest and administrative tolerance. Reading, computer clubs, even some foreign language and science clubs abound. Sports are much the same, with a solid soccer team and an unexpectedly vibrant girls' lacrosse team.
Juuban, then, is what most people think of when they consider a typical school experience in the city of Tokyo. Players interested in that school experience, the day-to-day backdrop to stranger events found in many themes, should consider Juuban their destination. That's the story of Juuban's school district...but not all of Juuban's students are all that ordinary.
Juuban is a place of very subtle mysteries. The class rep starts acting weird one day; is he having problems at home, or has he been possessed by the spirit of a long-lost artifact? The hard-eyed substitute teacher can't seem to take his eyes off the girl in the back row; is it forbidden romance? Or has the Steel Kingdom finally found Sparkle Ruby!? And why hasn't anyone seen the janitor this year? The halls are all so clean...
A place to hide in plain sight; a place to ferret out the subtle mysteries of everyday magic. These are the stories of Juuban.
