       One year ago, the bitch principal kicked me out of school, she said to me, she said, “Itsuki, you'd better not to be called Itsuki, you should be simply called trash instead!” Then I thought thoroughly, and I decided that I should tell the world that, I, Itsuki, am not trash! I'll be a racing driver!
