Yakitate Ja-pan

Damn! Five minutes late!

Minus five.

And Azuma only has five points left before he too is sent home. No, he won't be sent home, he decides. His bread will determine that for sure. Besides, all these nice people here are fun to talk with—

No chatting!

Ah, damn. As he watches, three prospective employees are fired for unruly appearances. He blows his own scruffy bangs from his face, only to have attention drawn to himself.

Minus two.

What a prick. He'll show him with his bread – as long as he doesn't lose all his points to petty rules first.
