Definitely, I even wrote a little review blurb on it at my blog

Although professional reviews are probably far better. It was hard to put into words why I liked this series so much.

If you're miffed by the occasional social or political issue, Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei is quite good. If not, it's quite funny and random regardless.

"...inludes a rope to hang him with" Ahaha...that's going to seem so weird to people who don't know what the show is. xP I can only imagine what my parents would think.
Speaking of which, there's a typo there - "includes" needs a "C". Didn't notice that earlier.

I'm rather curious, how can that anime series be so popular and iconic? I can't help but be bedazzled by it especially on a nendoroid scale.
aspiring to become a doujin and graphics artist cum lawyer
http://aki7.bottled-wish.info
its iconic cause it caught the persona of the japanese. itoshiki and his students are the embodiment of japanese society and added to the the witty sarcasm and dry humor and sometime epic weird, SZS really captures the spirit to be an icon. not much anime can make fun out of itself and japanese society and still not become morbid ^^; I recommend it to those we in-depth or more familiarity with japan's culture or else it will be boring
and oh, I've been waiting for this for ages. Bet it'll arrive here in ph around april or may, enough time for me to save up *u*

Interesting anime, lots of parody, social issues, random, sometimes dark...

First season was stunning, but the second season kinda lost that shock appeal for me. As for the OVA, that was dull, probably because I'd read the relevant chapters in the manga... still worth a watch, though.

I highly recommend the anime if you've got a sense of humor that can appreciate absurdity, especially in the realms of social commentary. This is the anime equivalent of Johnathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels except it covers the life of a dysfunctional teacher with a class of dysfunctional students.

I absolutely adored the first run of the show, but the second part (zoku zetsubou sensei) left me in despair. The opening sequences for each are still amazing, though.
I love the fact that the nedoroid comes with a rope.

read the synopsis on Wiki. Sounds like a good anime with a pessimistic teacher ^_^
Office Administrator
http://aquilla429.co.uk
It's very good.
I didn't take much not of it at first because I thought a show about a pessimistic and suicidal teacher would just end up being all dark, boring and emo. I WAS SO WRONG! It's nothing like that and that is the charm behind it.
I totally regret not watching it sooner and I would recommend it to anyone.

tooooo cute!!! i want that and nendoroid L.
the series is very good. but watchin it with subs requires intense attention, so many reference flying by, dialog can get fast and there are tons of captions in the background that i can never catch it all in one go.
this is not an entry level anime for the uninitiated.
