Goku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

獄・さよなら絶望先生

OVA · Finished · Fall 2008 · 3 episodes · 25 min

A continuation of Zoku Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, with more stories revolving around Nozomu Itoshiki, the extremely pessimistic or despairing teacher, and the students of class the 2-H, who are each hilariously abnormal in their own unique way except for the one relatively normal girl who hates being called normal.

Reviews

A creative, yet all too jarring combination of meta humor and unique direction does not leave me in despair.
