More Info

Adapted from the 1906 novel "Botchan" by Natsume Sōseki.

The story is based on the author's personal experience as a teacher being transferred to Matsuyama, which sets the stage for this novel. Natsume was born in Tokyo, and dwelling in Matsuyama was his first experience living elsewhere. The novel reflects his feelings during that experience. (Source: Wikipedia)
