Since April 2022, Nippon Television Network has been airing "Shakareki! ~ Social History Research Club ~ (every Saturday at 8:54 p.m., Kanto region only)." Set in a high school social history research club, it's a mini-drama that delves into historical events of the near and modern past, providing an opportunity for both parents and children to enjoy while gaining some knowledge.

It covers various events from a wide range of fields including politics, economy, society, culture, science and sports. Supervised by academic experts from the society for historical consulting, and with cooperation from The Yomiuri Shimbun's Proofreading Department for script checks.

Starring Matsuya Onoe as "Kohei Shinjitsu," the advisor teacher of 2Tokeizaka Academy2 Social History Research Club. In April 2024, a new member, Akuto Fuwa, joined the club. Played by Soya Kurokawa, a promising young actor who appeared in the movie "Kaibutsu (monster)" and won the Japan Academy Award for best new actor.

In March, senior member "Shii Ritera" (played by Airu Kubozuka) graduated, leaving Runa Nakajima's character, Anna Komine, a third-year member who had been working hard on recruiting new members, who now feels relieved. With the quirky Shinjitsu-sensei and the lively Fuwa at the center, the drama unfolds at an even more lively pace. Both Shinjitsu-sensei and the Social History Research Club have "hidden pasts," and a mission to "uncover Shinjitsu-sensei's computer secrets" was entrusted by senior Ritera. Additionally, it seems that Fuwa also has some "secrets"... the future developments are eagerly anticipated.
