It is published in the weekly magazine Weekly Shonen Jump.
The author is known for another famous Jump work, "Majin Tantei Neuro Nougami" which was also published in Shonen Jump from 2005 to 2009,yielding 23 volumes and an anime of 25 episodes.
It was announced anime adaptation of Assassination Classroom in Jump Super Anime Tour, which took place October 6 to November 24, 2013.
The anime began his performance on Fuji TV in January 2015 and ended by mid June of that year. The manga currently has 15 volumes.
The plot tells the story of a group of 3E of a school called Kunugigaoka and this is where there are two aspects:
the first is that this school is not a school like the others, since these students should finish school and murderers,
the second part is that who they have to kill is your teacher best known as Koro-sensei, say a mix between an alien and an octopus in the early history tells us that destroyed a considerable part of the moon and that for the next year plans to destroy the Earth.
So basically, these students have a double life where act or as normals students or as killers hoping to kill his teacher.
If someone can kill the Koro-sensei will receive from the Government a reward of 10 million yen equivalent roughly 7 million euros.
This story received an anime adaptation by Lerche studio with 22 episodes.
The manga was published by Viz Media in the US. This this anime have several characters differ from each other which makes them unique. We also have new features that we see in the manga as the dash and the personality of each.
Review: Judging by the title, Ansatsu or Assassination (short) seems to be typical of those stories as well as Future Diary
or Battle Royale where it seems can only be a survivor...
WRONG!
This story is quite different from that where the only person that these students have to kill is the own teacher as this is an alien/yellow octopus worth the reward of 10 million yen.
By funny enough, Assassination becomes a story a little so bizarre and confusing at the beginning where we have students
in the middle of a lesson using melee weapons and guns that shoot BB bullets (the only bullets in the world that take effect in Koro-sensei) instead of "decent" classes.
It is noteworthy that being an alien / yellow octopus, Koro-sensei is able to achieve Mach 20 speed, change the face color depending on your mood or the answers that students give are right or wrong and still has his "Definitive mode" of defense where it is basically a ball inside a transparent sphere and has to stay that way all day.
These students in anime ever make it end up in experienced killers, which has a good use of weapons both close-range and long-range, fight hand-to-hand and know how to react to a given situation.
I thought in the first 5 episodes the story was boring and boring one bit and thus believe that did not start in the best way
but then it became so good that now I feel like see again. Is there any suspanse but more in the 6 final episodes where there is a revelation! (Spoiler-free: v)
I recommend this anime but also the manga because it is being edited here (in Portugal) I think it will have a large market demand.
Aside: We also have some ecchi because their teacher is a hired assassin who has charm and things (breasts) on the site.... Nagisa is a trap btw ^^
(sorry for my errors) :(
