A Manga Phenomenon Turned Anime Classic

Originally serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2012 to 2016, Assassination Classroom is a hit manga by Yusei Matsui, boasting over 25 million copies in circulation. The story follows the enigmatic Koro-sensei, a creature with Mach 20 speed and immense power, who threatens to destroy Earth. Yet, he inexplicably becomes the homeroom teacher for Class 3-E, a group of misfit students at Kunugigaoka Junior High School. Tasked with assassinating their seemingly invincible teacher before graduation, the students embark on an extraordinary year of growth, challenges, and camaraderie.
