Why ppl say references and not parody sarcasm make fun of??
I mean this anime is all about black humor and being sarcastic nothing more nothing less
I feel that ppl saying its a reference sound naive!! (To me atleast)
In my point of view some of the episode are direct sarcastic attacks to ppl ,ways of living and other things and not just random references,sure there are things like that many times but seeing it in all the tread and forums (the word reference) makes me kind of .... you know wana take it out of me:P


Actually, I dont see any substance at all with this anime, it really is just a gigantic parody that likes to take big topics and molest them without any shame. The teacher's diatribes are like the rantings of a teen who just discovered adult literature, philosophy and politics, and feels the need to pontificate about the world's injustices to anyone who'll care to listen, which is of course why I find the show hilarious. Unlike another similarly perverted animation, South Park, theres no point or commentary to be seen in Zetsubo Sensei, not much anyway, but I really dont think that is its aim anyway.

Black humor involves serious topics such as death, rape, war, etc. and treating in a humorous or satirical manner. Itoshiki's rants don't count as black humor because he simply makes a big deal about things which most people would consider as trivial. Even his frequent attempts at suicide are nothing grim because we all know that he won't die anyway; it's just a running gag in the show.

Oh man. In the past hour, I must have watched the opening sequence over 10 times already.

^And you say this serious topic are not included in some episodes? Making an episode out of stalkers doesnt mean that this is black humor?

I'd say that SZS (both seasons) gets into black humor every once in a while, but it's pretty gray, for the most part. Part of the reason why this show is so great is because the creators cross the line of decency frequently, creating scenarios where you know you shouldn't laugh, but can't resist.

Ah. I meant the OP of episode 7 which featured Kitsu Chiri, Fuura Kafuka, and Otonashi Meru. The mahou shoujo theme was cute, song had a catchy tune, and it funny how Nozomu perfectly fitted into his role as the antagonist.

16 viewings and counting... XD

If I've understood the rules correctly it's fine to link to sites that then link to the episodes. If not then just remove this post and I'll pretend it never was made.

Go to http://www.tokyotosho.com/ and do a search for Zoku. There's no point in typing out the whole title but you can do that if you want to. You should probably be able to find what you're looking for in the results.

I did, but the [anon] .mkv one is supposedly 97 MB, so it has to be a joke, and the [.​​.​​.​​][anon] .mkv one was a fake according to the comments on Nyaa Torrents, which only leaves the .ass, but I would prefer a video with internal subs as opposed to having to DL both the Sub and the RAW...

Unless of course, the [.​​.​​.​​][anon] .mkv wasn't a joke... But the internet up here is really crapped up as of late, so I would rather be 100% secure rather than wasting time DL'ing some silly fake... recently, I spent three hours DL'ing one episode which turned out to be a Mr. T movie T__T

No, it's real. They use h.264 encoding so they aren't as big as the xvid ones.

If you still think it sounds fishy download the .ass files and use them with a raw instead.

man this ep was messed up O.o not every episode is golden. Still love the show though and too you people above yeah it is dark humor but taken in a light way so it doesn't seem dark so lets just say 50/50. And the show makes a lot of interesting points about things, mostly true to some extent at least., just dont look too deep ok XP

That was off the wall, and that is saying something for this anime! I know I've said similar things before, but this show just keeps on smashing up boundaries!

Nozomu is qualified to do a lot of stuff then...except dying of course!

I've never seen anything quite like that before.
I loved the Zetsubou Channel, and the animation styles were fun to watch, I adored the claymation.

I will admit that I'm falling in love with this show.

I thought the lucky star chocolate cornet parody in episode 5 was good, my body wasn't ready for episode 7.

This is such a good series that it's able to do stuff like this and get away with it.
