And apparently there will be an epilogue chapter 4 months from now. Like really? An epilogue to an ending?

By calculating the average and weight of each section, this serious is roughly an 8.0/10, which seems reasonable enough for me. I'm not gonna give it a negative score just because of it's final quarter, when the first three quarters were amazing.

Wow, that ending was horrible. Sucks that such an amazing manga had to decline during a long and boring arc, then be dragged out a bit further... and now this.

Danae said:
what did I just read.. is Hiramoto trolling us? I really don't like what he did with all the characters but most of all Chiyo.

not sure how I'm gonna rate this since I loved the first arc and then it got progressively more dull with some glimpses of its previous brilliance

Jabpi said:
I endured the chavalry arc just for this shit? ffs

Trumblest said:
Fuck this shit dude. Why did it end so abruptly?. So sad, I was expecting more from Hiramoto >:'(

Bitminer said:
This ending was pure Prison School !!!

Honestly, what did people want? After a whole story between Hana and Kiyoshi, the ending should be a boring Kiyo x Chio? (and a conformed Hana?) same as millions of other endings in manga?

Medusa wins!!!

Waiting for the epilogue now ...

Some of us didn't really care much for that, the reason the ending is disappointing is because nothing gets resolved, Kiyoshi is probably hated by Chiyo now, Hana is still a obsessed sore loser, Gakuto lost both his love interests, Shingo's relationship with Anzu is iffy and Joe..., Mari still hates men and went overseas...because?, Kate and Meiko are left behind, not to mention the principal is still on jail and Chiyo possibly became Mari 2.0, call her boring or whatever but she was the one consistent good sane character in the entire manga.(until this)
Also no WET T-SHIRTS?

Aside from Andre and Risa everyone basically got screwed and no matter what people try to sugar coat it, this was a rushed ending, no matter how you look at it.

Also what makes you think Hana will be with Kiyoshi? As much as Kiyoshi ended up being a pervert, she was the one who sabotaged his confession and "exposed" him to Chiyo, sure it's all basically his fault for not being honest to begin with, doesn't mean he won't hold a grudge against her, I'm not even sure SHE wants anything to do with him as well after all that.
If anything this ended sinking/leaving open every "ship", aside from Andre and Risa.

But whatever, if you had any joy with this ending, good for you, and who knows maybe the epilogue fixes everything, though I won't be here to see it, probably.

Just don't try to simplify other people's issues with the ending as "Ships sinking" when it had way more problems other than that.

For someone who says they do not care about ships, you seem pretty bothered by that aspect of the end. Why this need to see what is implicit in the last chapters? The boys and the girls are getting along very well. Gakuto will probably be forgiven by Mitsuko (I think we'll see this in the epilogue), Shingo and Anzu are already a couple (although you and they themselves do not seem very aware of this). Andre and Lisa are finally together. What else is there to develop there?


Chiyo was a consistent and sane character? Surely you did not see the personality change she had after rumors involving her sister. Mari did many bad things and regretted it. In difficult times in life, some people prefer to travel and live a long time away to get their lives in order. Nothing wrong with that. As for her hatred for men, did not the same thing happen to her that happened to Chiyo? Loving delusion? This question need not necessarily be answered for a good ending.


As for the Principal, Kate and Meiko, it would not be better to wait for the epilogue before throwing stones.


Kiyoshi and Hana are equal in perversion and are united by the sacred bond of urine. This is one of the great pillars of Prison School. If you do not like it, be patient.


You say you probably will not be here to see the epilogue, but we both know you will.
And just out of curiosity, How would your perfect end?

First of all, I couldn't care less if ships "sail" or not, second of all, regarding the boys, Gakuto and Shingo, implicitly isn't certainty(though I'll give it to you that yes, that can easily be fixed on the epilogue, so I'll detract that one), Joe on the other hand was a wasted character all the way through, aside from the ants hobby and the BL with Gakuto I can't remember he getting a focused arc at least not the same way the other boys had, Andre as I already said got his resolved.
Just for the record, I understand that this arguments heavily imply that my problems were the ships, but in reality is just that their core arcs were with each "love interest", my real issue was, I guess, that it wasn't enough, I wanted to see them interact with each other more, specially the boys that went through hell together at the beginning.

I never said Chiyo wasn't naive(or borderline dumb in this case, still not nearly to the same degree to the rest of the cast regarding other things), naivety=/=change of personality/insanity, Chiyo believed that her sister could do no wrong and that what she did must be followed as the ideal, which is one of the reasons why she "acted" like a "slut", believing that her sister was like that and that that was the reason Kiyoshi supposedly was "with" Mari, after it got explained that she got it wrong she never did it again, I said she was consistently a good and sane girl(again just because she did something weird once desn't mean she was insane, but that's completely up for interpretation), which she was, never once did she treat anyone badly nor did she do any of the crazy things the rest of the cast did, also never said she wasn't boring for that, her one and only unusual thing is her obsession for sumo.

Just because it can be fixed in the epilogue doesn't mean that having an anti-climatic last chapter without resolving the problems and issues is out of criticism.
That's like having a crappy non explained ending to a game but the devs saying "Don't worry, it'll all be resolved in a future update 4 months from now"(well could be worse, could be a paid DLC), while that's not entirely a bad nor wrong thing doesn't mean everyone will stick to it after having been disappointed several times before(dragged cavalry arc, I know that card gets used a lot, but the damn thing went for almost a year, and also seriously got sales to drop down).

As for Kiyoshi and Hana, I didn't really said what I said because I hate the ship and wanted it to sink, if you had seen my earlier post you'd see I just hate Hana, and I admit I was being picky and petty for making it seem like I just wanted your ship to sink, which was uncalled for.
If it happens good for you and Hana fans, I hold no malice/bad feelings at all to her fans despite my issues with her character(which are just preferences and nit-picking, so I really don't have a justification other than personal taste for it).

Truth be told I don't know if I could make a perfect ending, in my opinion the fact that so much got thrown into last minute like the building up for Mari's depart, the Principal in jail and the unresolved wet t-shirts, it just left little to no room for a satisfactory ending imo. Maybe if the Kiyoshi, Chiyo, Hana drama didn't take more than 5 chapters to being resolved, the author could have used that to bring a more complete end to the rest, though if what happened is that the manga really got a last-minute axe, then I really can't fault the author too much, though I still thing he could have come up with something better given how creative the first arcs were.

To finish it up, I never said you were wrong to like the ending, just that you seemed to diminish other people's opinion's of it as if the only issue was the KiyoshixChiyo ship sinking.
What may have been fine to you, to others may not, and that's perfectly fine for both.
I never intended to sound superior nor to insult you in any way, so if any of that got implied, I apologize.

it's kinda sad to know how this manga ended, it was one of my favorite manga series, but it's really disappointed me after read the latest chapter.
this series have potential, and i think it can pass bout more than 350 or 400 chapter.

the first drop i think is when the cavalry begin, it's not so bad but just too long, i just expected this cavalry would end up to 10 to 15 chapters, but it ended with more than 4 volumes which is roughly around 40 chapters.

the final act i kinda enjoyed it actually, but i think the author can make more good ending, he doesn't have to end the series like this.

about the epilog, i think it would be an after story of the ending, the wet t-shirt contest, or maybe the more detail that what happened with the last chapter (because it feel too sort and the author just forcing the ending there).

i wanna give this series score 9/10 for the first 20 volumes, but for overall i'm gonna give this a 8/10.
