This anime is a prime example of how the sheer nonsense can be a worthwhile product. But all that the author did was just bringing all that nonsense (which the anime is overflowed with) to the absurd, at the same time making sure that main lines of the plot remained within borders of adequacy. The intensity of the absurd and the atmosphere of this anime is not for everybody. This absurd comedy will unlikely be popular among a wide audience. But, I think that the older audience can appreciate all power of this work.

In fact, Prison School tells about ordinary things in a modern anime: friendship, partnership and of course romance. But the main thing lurks in the absurdity of the anime. Exactly all this nonsense vividly satirizes the anime industry flooded with boobs shaking. This epic absurd paced like a roller on all Ecchi at once, and not only Ecchi. Sports and Slice Of Life were also affected. Only that legendary armwrestling battle between the guys and Meiko costs much (not to mention more). Moreover, the banter of the anime went through contradictions of Japanese society in matters of sex. After all, the fact that protagonists were declared criminals and jailed for peeping is not inherently absurd for Japan.

No, I'm not going to cry about the genius and the blame of the season. I personally had a lack of lots of things. Had a lack of fun, surprisingly. Had a lack of funny jokes. It was fun but there was a lack of precisely funny jokes. Not enough lasting action, because the overall pace of the narrative is not so high. Anyway the thing stays worthwile with the unpredictable and (unexpectedly) not squeezed final.

In conclusion, if you do not usually turn away from the genre "comedy of the absurd", than you probably should watch Prison School.
