About Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

"About Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei"
Sayonara Zetsubō Sensei (Goodbye, Despair Teacher) is a comedy about a teacher who takes all aspects of life, language and culture in the most negative light possible. It is based on manga created by Kōji Kumeta. The anime series first aired in Japan on July 7, 2007 and is set to contain twelve episodes. Each episode ends with a still image drawn by one of the manga artists associated with Kōji Kumeta. The anime is somewhat of a personal triumph for the often self-defeating Kumeta, as his previous manga have never been animated - most recently, his earlier work Katte ni Kaizo was scheduled for an anime release but was cancelled before it aired.

Spoiler Warning!! [+/-] Show/Hide Synopsis...

Sayonara Zetsubō Sensei revolves around a very pessimistic high school teacher named Nozomu Itoshiki who tries to hang himself on a cherry blossom tree. Despite his best efforts, he is saved by a very optimistic girl known as Kafuka Fūra (whose real name is unknown). She explains to him that it is simply unforgiveable to hang himself on a day such a nice day, especially in front of such beautiful trees. She decides to nickname Nozomu, "Pink Supervisor", offering to pay him fifty yen to do so. After having enough of the strange girl, Nozomu bolts to the school and starts his homeroom class, but the attempt was in vain as he finds that the girl is one of his students.
