well it's pretty funny manga- but it winds up seeming kinda preachy in places- this is one of the few instances where I actually prefer the anime (they anime has an awsome style and is really funny)

very different from other mangas that ive read... at first i thought it would be a dark once since it had themes of suicide, rape and death but it mostly gives a satricial different view on these topics in a way that the manga doesn't seem dark..it also helps that the girl has a extremely postitive view on life and that he doesn't :3...plus itoshiki reminds me of kyoya of ouran or watanuki of xxxHolic because of the artwork bigrazz..fuura reminds me of haruhi of ouran or of saya from blood + ^^;

At first I thought that this manga was really emo, (black, death..the depressed and suicidal) but after reading and watching the anime i realised that it was actually hilarious in its dark ways.

A very interesting pychological black comedy that 1. will either make you really depressed, (if you can compare yourself with itoshiki..or agree with his theories in life, and truthfully doesn't want to die while thinking of suicide..then that might mean you're emo smile ) 2. make you piss yourself laughing thanks to its randomly twisted and psychological jokes.

I'm surprised that itoshiki is a teacher..the way he can make his entire class depressed in just a few seconds is hilarious, except for the one and only fuura ^^. The main, funny circumstances that he gets himslef into is that many of his female students tend to fall for him thanks to his suicidal gestures/actions and his offerings as a suicide buddy lol.

The series depicts a lot about human nature and their twisted personalities haha. Definitely get high marks for its originality and the power to make it unexpected. ^^ If you want to read something new and totally random and unexpected, try this out!

A classic manga of black comedy

Black comedy: A sub-genre which consists of satire and pokes fun at issues like death, suicide, rape, war, etc.

The clashing personalities of the "ultra-positive" student and the "ultra-negative" sensei turn otherwise ordinary situations into a series of extremely twisted jokes.

If you get depressed easily, you might want to give this a miss. However, if you enjoy unique humour and satire, then this manga is a perfect choice.

I don't like shounen genere very much, but this is just great!!!
You just can't wait for the next crazy student from Itoshiki-sensei class to make her/his appearance (and of course Fuura Kafuka's* sentence about that person: '[classmates idiosyncrasy] couldn't possibly be this close to me. She/He is [wird explanation]!') and Nozomu attempt suicides (+ his words: 'What would you do if I'd died?!').
It's to funny to describe - read it!!! biggrin
