I'm up to chapter 146. What happened to the boys rocket. :( That's not fair, they were playing with it so earnestly. :(

It's hard for me to know who to root for between Kate and Mari. Also it looks like Jo's brains are splattered on the pavement.

Really, the only reason to root for Mari is that she seems to no longer have quite as potent a grudge against the boys, whereas Kate fancies them fodder for her conflict with Mari

Those two are bad news. they deserve each other

I just started reading this because the art was amazing and yet the premise was stupid, at least at first. Then I kept going and now it's chapter 158 and this is the most badass manga in the world. Stupendous scatological feats, intrepid morons, a fat dude with a tiny face, a rocket ship of profound ingenuity. It's chapter 158 and, in cell block B, someone's psyche is being gently dismantled. In cell block A, a prisoner smiles silently at the wall. Three boys worship a bottle together. One has piss all over his face, and is presumably proud of it. There is no point in other mangas.

Just chirping in to say thanks to this thread I'm really enjoying this manga, the comedic timing is great (even though its a manga)

There are some really great segments throughout it I'm currently around chapter 148, looking forward to the anime adaptation

The original "Ourobouros" panel is the hardest I've laughed at a manga in a very very long time. It felt like over 100 chapters built up just to culminate in one stupid, glorious gag.

This current arc is appropriately completely nuts. Releases can't come fast enough.

Oh Professor, you'll bury us all!
Think I'm still about forty chapters shy of the current one, but I'd just like to echo the sentiment that, even if it took a little while, somewhere along the line this went from being a guilty pleasure with amazing art, to being legit good in every way.

I really hope the upcoming anime does it justice.

I think its secret lies in how audacious it is, and in how the art just keeps getting better. It's garbage, but it's hilarious, gorgeous, masterfully-paced garbage that goes above and beyond ridiculous in its situations and contrived fanservice.

The anime better keep up the tradition and be absurdly well-animated. I'm talking motion picture quality. Nothing else will be good enough. :colbert:

I can see why someone would hate this series if they only read a handful of chapters. But god drat, go 50 chapters in and if the fanservice ain't making you laugh as hard as everything else, there's something wrong with you.

Kiyoshi - Kamiya Hiroshi(Expecting Zetsubou Sensei + a bit of Ararararagi)
Gakuto - Katsuyuki Konishi
Shingo - Kenichi Suzumura
Joe - Daisuke Namikawa
Andre - Kazuyuki Okitsu

The girls:
Mari - Ohara Sayaka
Meiko - Itou Shizuka
Hana - Hanakana (Surprise! The kiss scene will be so hilarious with her doing the voice, and the peeing parts too)

Studio:
JC Staff

Director:
Tsutomu Mizushima (Witchcraft Works...So we are in good hands I think since WCW was really well adapted and directed)



And here we have Kamiya in the prison uniform. It's apparently from an press event that was streamed on niconico and requires premium to watch. Relying on /a/nons right now for more pictures from that event.



New trailer too!

really hyped that Hanakana will be playing Midorikawa. she's been my favorite character since she and the piss romance first showed up. the pv doesn't look great but I'm hoping the show will be a good refresher so i can jump back into the manga (stalled around 50 chapters in).

Get to at least chapter 81 because that's the most likely place the anime will stop at. Trust me from 60 and on, the humor just gets on a whole new level.

Also we don't know who voices the principal yet. We must know!

I'm so happy about Hana and I am pleased to see from the PV that several of my favorite scenes will be adapted and fully animated. Unfortunately I don't think the anime will make it to OUROBOUROS but I'm hoping at least for the entirety of Operation Full Moon.

Also, the latest chapter... What a climax. :allears: Watch the next chapter show it was yet another red herring.

Keiji Fujiwara was narrating some of the trailer so I'm assuming he will put on the role of the resident... assman!
Edit: Seeing that the chairman is the only other man in the series besides that dry cleaning truck man.

I'm hopeful this will be a pretty good adaptation the Vice Prez's breasts look more insanely massive than they do in the manga though, which I guess just make them even more comical

i wasn't sure if the narrator was one of the already cast characters, so yeah i'd bet he's the principal then.

So the author is sick? Is that it? The tension was very very palpable in the latest chapters... And now it's the waiting game all over again.

I thought this just ended when the boys finally got out. Pleasantly surprised to find another 80+ chapters and it is ongoing. Just as good as I remembered it being.

I really hope they manage to keep the characters and expressions as good in the show.

Y'know, there have been a lot of Eva parodies over the years, but I think 178 is probably the best one and largely because it doesn't feature any of the overt stuff like big purple robots or brand x Ultraman kaiju or anything

I copped out and read the entire manga from chapters 1 - 178 in about 9 hours. Dunno theres just an allure to the stuff (besides the tits).

The last chapter's ending is such a tease since recently the chapters are coming out like every 2 weeks or so.


also hana is too much to handle.
