Denpa Kyoushi

I had actually read a little bit of the Denpa Kyoushi manga before the anime was announced. I had only finished the first two volumes, but I was excited for the adaptation none the less. So, was my excitement well placed? Let's break it down and find out:

Story - 6
Kagami Junichirou is an otaku NEET with a bad case of YD, meaning that he can only do that which he Yearns to Do. His younger sister isn’t satisfied with that, so she forces him to take a job as a teacher. Unsurprisingly, Kagami is unenthusiastic about teaching, but if any of his students have an ... issue that he finds amusing, then he decides to help them out. That's the basic premise, and unfortunately, the show doesn't really go beyond it. For the most part, each episode introduces a new student, and then Kagami fixes whatever problems they had with some wacky solution. Every episode follows this same formula, so it doesn’t take long for watching the show to become tedious, especially since an overarching story is near-nonexistent.

Art - 6
A-1 Pictures is one of the bigger animation studios. They animate several shows each season, and for both halves of Denpa Kyoushi, they were working on three other animes besides it. However, it looks like they couldn’t quite handle that many at once, since they clearly cut costs for this show’s art, which just does not look good. It lacks a distinctive style, and most colors lack any gradients, so everything just looks flat and lifeless.

Sound - 7
Sound quality is one of the few things that improved as Denpa Kyoushi went on. The opening and ending themes for the first half weren’t that memorable, but the themes for the second half better fit the vibe of the show, and were all around better. The voice acting also improved. It’s not that it was bad at first, but it was initially dragged down by Matsui Rena, who voiced Kagami’s sister. This was her first role, and she terrible at first, but she became more experienced over the course of the series, and was fine by the end.

Characters - 5
Denpa Kyoushi’s cast can be broken up into two sections: Kagami and everyone else. I honestly don’t know which is worse. In the beginning, Kagami seemed interesting despite his flaws, but as time went on, he began to fall apart. He’s unbelievably good at various skills for no particular reason, and often acts overly smug and obnoxious. But when he’s not donning his plot armor, he’s complaining about how he doesn’t want to do anything, and his rants about YD quickly grow tiresome. His personality is awful in just about every way, but at least he has one. On the other hand, the rest of the cast is completely lifeless. Each student only plays a major role in the episode where they’re introduced, so there’s really no time to have any sort of depth established. Then, once their moment in the spotlight is over, they’re either whisked off to the sidelines, or off the stage altogether. It’s true that most of them do stick around after their initial appearance, but usually they’ll be left with only a shred of their personality, and be used for plot convenience more than anything else. So, between a lead with a terrible personality and a supporting cast with no personality, characters were easily Denpa Kyoushi’s weakest area.

Enjoyment - 5
At first, the series really was fun to watch. Kagami’s solutions to problems were fairly creative, and there was still the possibility of an overarching plot. But as the series dragged on, it only got worse. There was no greater story to be found, and Kagami’s plans began to lose their appeal. They became less unique and more contrived, especially when gaming is involved. Honestly, the enjoyment value of this series would have been higher if the series were only 12 episodes, because the length of the show really killed it.

Overall - 5
In conclusion, I can’t recommend watching Denpa Kyoushi. If the concept interests you, you should instead watch Great Teacher Onizuka or Kami Nomi zo Shiru Sekai, which have similar premises but better execution. But if you absolutely insist on watching this, I’d say jump out at the halfway point. That’s essentially where the series peaks, and everything after that is really nothing new.

Before I start I just want to say that everything I write is my opinion so take it for what it's worth

So before I watched this anime I had read about 50 or so chapters and really enjoyed it and was excited when I heard Denpa Kyoushi was being adapted to become an anime. What really got me hyped was when I heard Ono Daisuke voices Kagami and Asumi Kana voices Suzune in the promotion video because these two are my some of my favorite voice actors. Unfortunately these two didn't get cast for either of there roles and it was Kamiya Hiroshi and Matsui ... Rena according to myanimelist who took Kagami and Suzune's role. Now don't get me wrong I'm not saying kamiya's a bad actor what so ever, in fact I'm a fan of a lot of his roles such as Natsume from Natsume no Yujincho and Law from One Peace to name some. But personally I don't like Kamiya's take on Kagami, it could be that I'm partly biased because I wanted Ono Daisuke to voice Kagami but I just can't seem to like his voice for Kagami. I also didn't really like Matsui Rena's take on Suzune mainly cause I find her voice is kinda well atrocious and doesn't suit Suzune at all. Now my thoughts on the story, I think the story has done fairly well by faithfully keeping close to how the story in the manga played out but they did take out some things which kinda made it loose its impact that it had in the manga. For instance -SPOILER IN THE MANGA- before Kagami was about to quit his first teaching job he was to be replaced by a teacher who graduated from Yale and was pretty much a jerk who believed that if you can't obey the rules you wont get anywhere in life, at the assembly the The teacher from Yale gave his speech about his belief to soon to be students but Kagami gives them his lecture about not being bound by rules and to carve out your own path which was by far my favorite moment in the manga. In the anime the Teacher from Yale wasn't there so for me it kinda lost it's impact. So my conclusion, for now the shows kinda okay and I''ll watch it till the end before I give my final decision but as of now this anime is one of my least favorite in all honesty but that could change so hope my rant didn't bore you and have and awesome day

Denpa Kyoushi is an anime that follows the life of a teacher named Kagami with YD syndrome. YD is a disease that only let's him doing what he wants to do.

Seems interesting? Well it was .. until I figure out that this show is another show like Assassination Classroom, a teacher that is solving the problems of his students.

The plot doesn´t actually have anything developed so far, he is only there helping out teens but still is not that bad. The first few episodes and the last 4-5 episodes are being fun. I'm actually attached to this anime and has become one of ... my favourites of this season so far.

But again, we are 11 eps in and we still have no plot line, no goal for our protagonist. He is there because he wants to ? Well yeah that's it. The entire plot so far is watching him doing stuff that he wants to do. Not that interesting. Plus, the characters themselves and their background story are kinda over exaggerated. A girl fucked up her life only because she had a part time job in some maid café. I'm like forced to believe that the characters are in a bad spot and need to be saved by Kagami.

Art: 6/10. I hate it. The colorful looks awful. The animations as well are as cheap as possible. The background for the most part looks like a picture of a 5 years old kid who just got his markers and is now learning how to use them. It only doesn´t have a worst rate because the character design if at least good. Good looking characters, especially the girls. Each one has her own design and pallet so that they can be unique in the anime and that is really something important for me. Because not that rare I see characters that look like the same and the only way to distinguish them is by their voices.

Sound: 7/10. The opening is fine so as the ending. The ost used are also fine. Everything looks fine. No complaints about it. It's just fine.

Character: 8/10. Well, they are funny, likeable and very good looking. What do I mean? Well besides the nice design, they also have a nice personality that fits with both her design and her position in the anime. Each character ends up related with Kagami in some way which is nice to watch.

They are really different from each other which is also really important because the anime doesn´t get repetitive. For instance let me use an example: Assassination Classroom. They do the exact same thing but, all the characters have the same problem which is : school problems.

At least denpa kyoushi is more creative, even though some of the problems are quite hard to "accept".

Enjoyment: The main purpose of the anime is comedy, and the comedy is not that great. I don´t like it. They don´t focus any other point. Don´t get me wrong, the anime is fun to watch but is not that good.

Overall:

Short pros and cons:

Pros:
- Funny to watch
- Likeable characters
- Nice designs

Cons:
- Bad art overall
- Sound not being great
- Story with some flaws
- Weak comedy overall

so .. ?
Give it a try. Even though it's not that great, this entire season is not that great as well, so I believe this anime will became one of the best of this spring season.

You know, when someone becomes a veteran, his thinking always becomes biased with his experience no matter how much impartial he wants to stay. Having watched and read 1500-2000 series in this industry, mine is also the same.

Denpa kyoushi=Otaku teacher, as the named suggest the mc is an otaku. Well, fine by me. No matter how much they push, the ota culture it's going down cause it's repetitive and boring and i see no future of this ota brand. When came the term 'teacher' comes the masterpiece 'Great Teacher Onizuka' automatically. Asking me why i compare this to that? Like i said, veteran. As usual, ... the theme should be dealing with problem students and make them enjoy school. This anime is the same except it's not even close to being a rip off of GTO.

The mc is an Ota and is supposed to be a genius who wrote a theory which beat CERN, the biggest particle physics organization. Okay, fine by me. So, he became a physics teacher. He is somehow a computer specialist such as hacker, software developer and gamer. LOL, remember just fiction. And not to mention he has no interest in physics or computer cause he is 'YD' meaning yearning to do whatever he wants. Give me a break. Never judge an anime character about how he crossed over so many brands and this ain't even wuxia novel. Well, that's our mc.

Other notable character is his sister, who is the only reason a lazy bum ota is working. Even her voice actress is bad. Terrible matching for her character. Other characters are all distinguishable but that's that not enjoyable at all.

Plot, as usual having problem students and solving their problems to make them come to school and interact with the circle but except the first epsode other felt forced. No emotion involved at all, forced humor that didn't make me laugh not even once. The anime team used various cards to make this unique but all felt flat because it's hollow, no depth whatsoever.

Art is pretty modern and okay i guess. And sound? Nothing eye cathing and worth mentioning.

The anime was so bad that i had to drag some of the episodes and at the end i had to delete all. The characters were all with unique trait but with shallow story. Unlike GTO characters, they are easily convinced to join the happy go lucky team. Not the mc but more like the anime team is YD, doing whatever they want and failed miserably. I read the manga for 50-100 chapters and i remember i kind of enjoyed the comedy then than this anime.

So, my final opinion is , even the rewatch of GTO is 10 times more enjoyable than this anime. I don't recommend this to anyone who has experience. Newcomes can try but still believe this is a waste of time

Denpa Kyoushi is tedious to watch and become more of a pain then a pleasure when your watching through it. It tries to use tropes such as finger snapping and starting a lesson, which all boil down to nothing. The characters are bland and I could care less about the story because there is none. It is average to watch but not a real priority.

If you want a good anime about a teacher then watch Great Teacher Onizuka a much better use of your time. The "Lessons" your taught are condescending at bland. I've learned more lessons from Hentai then this show. Is it really ... bad maybe no but its not very good either there are a few good things I liked. The main one being The wide variety of characters but they quickly wear off. Another is the art it's not bad actually pretty nice. This is my opinion on the show you can watch it slowly and get the same feel as if you binged it.

--------------------------------------

Well, if I had to give a review of Denpa Kyoushi, I would say it's not too shabby. The story follows Junichiro Kagami, a genius scientist who becomes a teacher at a high school and helps his students with their various problems using his scientific knowledge.

The main character, Kagami, is a bit of an eccentric and can come off as a bit obnoxious at times, but he does have his moments of charm. His interactions with his students are entertaining, and he manages to teach them valuable life lessons along the way.

As for the music, it's nothing to write home ... about, but it does the job of setting the tone for the show. I can't say I found myself humming any of the tunes afterwards, though.

Overall, I did enjoy watching Denpa Kyoushi, but it's not without its flaws. The pacing can be a bit slow at times, and some of the character arcs felt a bit rushed. However, if you're looking for a lighthearted anime with some science thrown in, then this one might be worth checking out. It's not the best anime out there, but it's certainly not the worst either. So, I guess I would recommend it... if you have some spare time and nothing better to watch.

--------------------------------------

Baiklah, jika saya harus memberikan ulasan tentang Denpa Kyoushi, saya akan mengatakan bahwa itu tidak terlalu buruk. Ceritanya mengikuti Junichiro Kagami, seorang ilmuwan jenius yang menjadi guru di sebuah sekolah menengah dan membantu siswanya dengan berbagai masalah menggunakan pengetahuan ilmiahnya.

Karakter utama, Kagami, agak eksentrik dan terkadang bisa terlihat agak menyebalkan, tetapi dia memiliki momen-momen daya tariknya sendiri. Interaksinya dengan siswanya menghibur, dan dia berhasil mengajarkan kepada mereka pelajaran hidup yang berharga.

Sementara untuk musiknya, itu tidak terlalu spesial, tetapi cukup untuk menetapkan nada untuk acara tersebut. Namun, saya tidak bisa mengatakan bahwa saya menemukan diri saya menyanyikan nada-nada itu setelahnya.

Secara keseluruhan, saya menikmati menonton Denpa Kyoushi, tetapi tidak tanpa kekurangannya. Tempo ceritanya terkadang bisa lambat, dan beberapa pengembangan karakter terasa terburu-buru. Namun, jika Anda mencari anime yang ringan dengan sedikit ilmu pengetahuan, maka ini mungkin layak untuk dilihat. Ini bukan anime terbaik di luar sana, tetapi juga bukan yang terburuk. Jadi, saya kira saya akan merekomendasikannya... jika Anda memiliki waktu luang dan tidak ada yang lebih baik untuk ditonton.

Hey everybody, this will be my review for Denpa Kyoushi. I didn't much like this anime, hopefully i can touch on some points to tell you why without giving away spoilers.

Story 5

Denpa Kyoushi doesn't have much in the way of story. The overall story is about a young man who has a condition called "YD", which only allows him to do what he yearns to do. We follow this man as he journeys to find what he actually yearns to do.

The rest of the story is split into mini stories. These mini ... stories revolve around people that the main character meets and decides to help in some way. This wasn't a terrible idea. Other anime have done this in the past but I felt like this had an interesting twist. Each person generally had a problem which was detrimental to their living condition. For example; a heartless bully, a cross dresser, a delinquent student, etc.. You follow these unusual characters for an episode or up to three episodes to finally get to the point where they have learned a valuable lesson and are grateful to the main character.

That's the entire story. Unfortunately this didn't interest me enough. The mini stories were hit and miss, and you know how ever situation is going to end. Those are two big reasons that this anime scored so low IMO. GTO is a popular anime that gets referenced to this show a lot. GTO was interesting, the teacher did things in a different manner and had an outlandish personality for being a teacher which made that show interesting and fun. Denpa Kyoushi had an interesting main character who didn't fit into the typical mold, but it wasn't up to the same standards. Some of the mini stories felt rushed and other times some of the stories were well paced and done well, but each ultimately ended with satisfaction and that just gets boring time after time of seeing that happen.

Art & Sound 7

The art was well done. I was able to spot some reused still frames, but that's nothing to complain about. There were times where I wondered at some of the aesthetic choices , like masks with skin tone making it hard to tell who is speaking, and the whole twin mini story later in the show. Other than that the art was done well. The music didn't catch me either way good or bad. The resolution song was kinda annoying by the end of the show. The voice actor for the main characters sister too also had me wondering. She doesn't sound bad, but seemed like an odd choice.

Characters 6

The characters are what will make or break this show for many people. The cast is quite large because of the helping people solve their problems angle they took. I rated this section low again because I didn't think the characters presented much enjoyment to me.

Lets talk about the main character. First and foremost the main character is insanely strong. Not strong as in Kirito or Tatsuya way, but strong in the nerdy character who can do anything with technology and his mind. You will see several times in the anime where the main character cant do many physical thing but can always pull through with some miraculous nerd level skills. I keep saying "nerd" because he is an otaku. He uses that power several times, like updating his blog to get people to follow a car, or to miraculously escape capture in Akihabara. The YD conundrum caused me to dislike him more than I liked him. He always got serious for odd reasons, and when he got serious he stopped feeling like a real character. His ability to solve problems and to come up with solutions was always strong and to me felt really un balanced, leaving him to be a mere tool to push along the story. The initial things that made him relate able like the blog obsession, or love of anime or games was thrown out the window and he just became someone with insane skills.

As for the side characters/Students, they were hit and miss for me. You had many interesting issues crop up but sometimes the problems seemed silly, or unrealistic. Each character has their own nickname given by the main character which will help you remember their names. There are too many here to go into full detail and to do so will be to give spoilers.

Since that is the case I will close of characters section by saying that this score represent my personal taste. The characters were not enjoyable too me and the way that writer served them up like baseballs to be hit out of the park left them with little to no presence or purpose. This however is the main selling point of the show so you may disagree.

Enjoyment 6

Overall I am happy that I watched this anime. I dont have much good things to say about it, however it is one of the few anime in this genre that I have completed. GTO was super long and I couldn't get passed the first 10 episodes. This was a good medium sized anime that I could force myself to watch(which unfortunately I did need to force myself). The characters were semi enjoyable from time to time. I laughed at certain parts and became curious about certain issues that arose. However for those of you looking for romance, there is none. Not sure why there is a romance tag. There are a couple hints that romance could be had, but nothing ever happens. The whole "YD" and "Amusing" premise that they kept shoving down my throat was less than interesting to me as well and often found myself being assaulted by my own boredom. In a show like this i feel like they would have done better by highlighting the characters strengths in more detail. It just felt shallow and not well thought out.

TLDR: If you have time to kill and want to watch kids with odd personalities try to make it in society then give Denpa Kyoushi a shot. Thanks for reading, have a good day.

Finished it. Sigh. This anime was frustrating to watch - every episode is hit or miss, and there are more misses than hits. To put it bluntly, it is an seriously inferior version of Great Teacher Onizuka... except that instead of delinquent you get an uber-otaku genius teacher. I didn't like it, but rated it as 5, because of the effort put into it. Detailed breakdown below:

Story: 3/10

Honestly, it is not good. It follows similar pattern as Great Teacher Onizuka or maybe even Assasination Classroom, but the problem is that it wastes quite a lot of the time trying to prove that "otaku are people ... too" and trying to appeal to various popular trends/niche interest/hobbies. Occasionally there are amazing episodes (I really loved 3rd episode), but their number is depressingly low. Another issue is that "otaku powers" of main character surpass anything reasonably possible, which makes story harder to believe. Some of the events are pointlessly overdramatized to the point where they may look cruel (this happens only two times, though). Because of all this it is hard to take the story seriously. It doesn't help that cast of characters is less charming than Great Teacher Onizuka was.

Art: 5/10.

Standard "modern" arts with relatively low detail, fairly solid overall (and it doesn't look cheap). Looks better than mahouka, but it is not a "realistic proportions" type of anime, and it is less detailed than, say.... Spice and Wolf or even Shokugeki. Art does its job, it is done relatively well, but it could be better.

Sound 4/10:
Mostly does its job, but does not stand out, and I think one of the themes annoyed me.

Characters: 4/10.
One and possibly only amazing character here is protagonist's sister (suzune). Scenes where she get confused by her brothers are interesting to watch, and for some reason her character looks much more believable personality-wise. This may be happening because her voice acting is much more reserved than usual anime, which, amusingly, makes it more life-like. One of the side characters - kanan chinami - was interesting to watch too, but only for the duration of the arc where she was introduced, and her behavior promptly deteriorated afterwards. The rest of the cast has less personality to display, acts in stereotypical manner and in general less believable. "Sensei" himself is fairly uninteresting character, with unreasonably high mental and computer skills.

Enjoyement 4/10:
I liked few episodes, but overall the anime was a disappointment. It is drop in a quality compared to Onizuka, and it spends too much time pandering to niche interests and hobbies or trying to prove that "otaku are people too".

Overall: 5/10

I'd say 5/10, because they put effort into it, but overall I think you'd be better off watching Greater Teacher Onizuka instead. Most likely it is more appealing to teens or younger teens.Basically, check first three episodes, and see if it is your thing or not. The quality is roughly the same throughought the whole anime.

Story - 3 : The story doesn't progress much . Its just how a teacher helps student in anime or game thats all.

Character - 3: Only kagami guy gets screen time. Rest all characters are just fillers whose main parts are in a episode or 2. No character building.

Enjoyment - 4: Tend to get more pissed than laughing at comedy scenes.

Art and Sound - 7: Only good thing about this anime is this.

Overall - 5: Its not that bad but its not that worth of watching.

The only good thing about this anime was its art. Rest all are not up to the mark. There is ... no proper story and character building is very low. After just watching 5 episodes i start regretting watching this. The main character aka junichiro kagami is the main reason i hate this anime. He is an otaku keeping that aside he is useless irrespective of the fact he is a genius. He only helps people only if he gets anything from that person like anime or game otherwise he doesn't give a fuck about anyone no matter if that guy is dying.

When others give him some work he never wants to do it. but when it comes to a help for him in anime or a game he forces other and orders the to help him in it. A student is dying or suck at life he wont give a fuck but if a student says a particular game suck or an anime suck he wont leave them until they change their opinion. He is a teacher who can make entire class play a game n waste their time rather than teaching them. hate this fact a lot

i wouldn't have even given it a 5 if not for the min comedy it has and kinda good animation.
