Gakuen Handsome

Introduction

High school student Yoshiki Maeda is starting a new year in the all-boys Baraman High School. On the first day, Yoshiki reconnects with his childhood friend, Takuya Saotome, and meets his odd and dramatic homeroom teacher, Teruhiko Saionji. Yoshiki's younger sister, Yuu, is aware of many of these handsome boys and seems to take pleasure in teasing her big brother about them. Yoshiki soon discovers a number of stereotypical romance characters and has no choice but to deal with their outright ludicrous and nonsensical boys' love antics. [Written by MAL Rewrite]

This anime is perhaps one of, if not, the best I've even seen. The plot of this story is super unique and interesting and also being served animation so good, it's almost as good as Project No. 9's works. The characters are full of personality and have depth of character. This show is best watched with friends so make sure you don't watch this alone. The amount of hark work put into this anime really shows in multiple aspects like putting half the budget into drawing and animating their hot chins. Overall a 100,000/10 because a 10 isn’t enough. I am now going to spam the letter v representing the men’s chins because MAL thinks I need to say more things. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv.

If it had raunchiness, and vulgarity, heck, I’d even allow creepy sex jokes – it would live up to it’s potential and be a 10/10. It had a certain character who seemed to be that type, but it just didn't happen. Without those, it's not even funny bad, it's just bad. The episodes are 3 minutes each and they are so painfully PG that 3 minutes of it is just enough for the watcher to see what’s up, exhale through their nose (like you would when you see a funny short video on your For You page on that other app) and move on to the next show. Because every other 3 minutes would just be spent in vain, repeating the same re-clothed, reheated dinner type jokes with little to no flavor to them. It is pretty clear what this show was trying to do, it’s primarily a parody of the BL genre, harem, high…

I believe it's the best show I've ever watched in my life The plot is incredible and very unpredictable and the art is just amazing and very unique The characters are diverse, everyone has deep personality and own style, which makes viewer love each of them And in addition they are so handsome fr I understand why main character has such a difficulty deciding which one he likes the most And the most important thing - opening and ending They are just a work of art, I see how much effort was needed to make such amazing art to match the music and to present the full spirit of the show I think I won't find anything like this ever again and I feel devastated that I can't see more of this wonderful story But still this experience changed me so much and made my life better and took on meaning…

If you're a fan of shitposts, then this is the anime for you! A friend recommended this to me and as a connoisseur of bad anime, I had to check it out, and let's just say I was not disappointed. From an objective standpoint, it's terrible- the art style is amateur, the plot is basic, and the characters are hardly developed. However, this was all intentional so it's forgivable. It's honestly one of the best satirical anime I have ever seen. It's hilarious and is reminiscent of Neko Sugar Girls. Each episode is only around 3 minutes long so you can binge it in one sitting. Have fun!

First of all I'd just like to say, the outro for this show is the greatest masterpiece mankind has gifted this earth. It has beaten out Jujutsu Kaisen as my favorite anime outro. Now its fair to say spoiler warning from this point forward. These boys... MEN... are very handsome. The most handsome I have ever seen in real life. and anime. I dream every night that I can go to this prestigious academy. I cry myself to sleep because I know that I will never EVER get the chance to spend time with my favorite most handsome people. My perception of reality has been destroyed beyond repair, I can no longer look at real men as now they disgust me... No one can ever EVER EVVVVVERRRR!!!! come close to being this darn fine. I'm planning on getting plastic surgery in the next coming years to match…

hello and greetings from partner watchers meghan and michelle (also known as mochelle and meghanaidtor.) i am very happy to say that we thoroughly enjoyed watching this after coming home from a long day at school and crying at dog videos. we have never rated an anime a 10/10 but if we could, we would rate this a 12/10. the story is outstanding. it follows a clear and firm storyline that doesn't branch out at all, unlike all other anime. every episode is SO consistent and definitely doesn't have a new plot every time. we felt like the end was so gratifying and such a tear-jerker. we felt salty tears rolling down our entire face and jaws. harry potter does not hold a candle and neither does any show animated or not. who cares about game of thrones. the art style is immaculate, much bette…

I'll never understand why this series is so poorly rated ITS SO OBVIOUSLY A JOKE AND I LOVE IT. This show is so garbage but loveable. What more could anyone want in a show? It's stupidly hilarious, Anyone who disagrees obviously takes life all to seriously. I will add, it's more funny to people who watch a lot of anime, like it's still enjoyable if you aren't mega into anime, but the clichés and shit are just far too hilarious. The art obviously isn't anything special, but that's only because it's not meant to be, and the animation is pure dog shit. You could finish this show in about an hour, which is good! And the music videos add to how funny this garbage is. I totally recommend.

This anime is soo awful... and i absolutely love it. I'm just giving it a low rating cause i think it's what it wants (and cause i think people giving it a 10 is a bit too much when we already have asobi asobase) , but i enjoyed this shit a lot, mostly cause is a very good parody of yaoi tropes and the little section with fanart and the end is a cute touch. the opening and ending are so funny and i don't know why, but it always sets the mood, maybe i'll watch it again sometime What else can i say? you do can make an anime just with ms paint skills as long as you have good Voice actors

People who didn't give this a 10 are absolute cowards, completely blind to the most outstanding story, art and animation, the most beautifully composed soundtrack, the immaculate character developement. This anime has everything you could ask for: Amazing comedy, probably written by the funniest people on earth. Beautiful romance between the most handsome men ever made in the history of anime. Every single one of them is a perfect mix of the best characteristics a true man could have. The hottest tea (drama) between these guys, very spicy. The most mysterious mysteries, what is going to happen next? You never know, it is very unpredictable. You never know who's your enemy and who's the most loyal to you. A great story about fame and how it can change people. The loneliness you feel when a…

this... i don't think i can fairly rate this anime. it's literally so bad, and i love it. my friends and i watched this over a discord stream in the span of an hour since we kept pausing it to both take mental breaks and gather ourselves because we were laughing so hard. it's a satire, BL, high school anime, and it is quite possibly the worst anime i've ever seen. if you're looking at it from a serious angle. but, looking at it how it was meant to be looked at, it's genius. the art is awful, the story is pathetic, the characters are... mysteries. and that's what makes it so good. if you're looking for a silly anime that will have you WHEEZING with laughter, gakuen handsome is for you.

"If you flip the 10, it becomes a 01!" -Some Jerk Let me preface this pre-review by saying this, I am in love with this series, but for all the wrong reasons. Gakuen Handsome, or, Gakuen Handsome as the gringos say, is the sophomore effort of Team YokkyuFuman. I imagine Team YokkyuFuman's frame of mind when conjuring up the idea for this was one of both pragmatism and...a cheeky disregard for creativity. Gakuen Handsome is one of the most creatively bankrupt series I have ever had the pleasure of watching. I am utterly convinced that Team YokkyuFuman wrote this as a cheeky retaliation/statement against the higher-ups and no amount of rationalizing or fanboying can change that perception for me. Gakuen Handsome is terrible, it's like the Yaoi equivalent of The Room except it gets away wit…

I don't know why I'm writing this, I know no one will read but I just need to tell everybody my feelings towards this anime. I'm a yaoi fangirl since I'm 11 and I felt so nostalgic watching this, It satirizes all "all boys school" BL's ever made, It was so funny and I could relate with every little thing, even the art brings me my deviantart memories and as a brazilian the samba scene made me so proud of my country. If you are bored and have nothing do, just watch it, nothing will change in your life but you will laugh

Honestly, after reading and watching countless yaoi/shounen ai anime and manga for years, I can say that this is indeed the best bl there is. This is truly a masterpiece that can't be attained by any other series. The timing is perfect, the story line is a 10/10, 11/10 if I could rate it higher. The situations and scenarios are well thought out and is something out of the box that you'd never see in any other series. Would recommend it for anybody and everybody. MITSURUGI-SAMA~~ PLEASE TAKE ME AWAY <3 . . . . On a serious note, I watched this at 4 am and it felt as if I was high and dreamt up this entire thing. The best way to describe it is, it's like the unholy love child of shitty Deviantart "artists" trying to animate on ms paint combined with 13 years old Wattpad "writers". The creat…

Yes, this anime is a joke. Everything is. But that's what makes it so fantastic XD I cried so much while I was laughing :') Tip : best to watch during midnight ;P

*SKIP TO THE BOTTOM TO READ TO SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW BEFORE WATCHING* ~ Story (9) ~ Each short, three and a half minute, episode explores a new character in this wonder parody harem. There are episodes about a man who can fly using the rotation powers of his spatulas, invitations to go romantically peeing together, fashionable wearing of sumo wrestler underwear (fundoshi), death by cat cafe and many other ridiculous things. Not much else to say but that each episode will leave you thinking both, "wtf did i just watch" and "i need more". ~ Art (10) ~ To me, aspects of an anime like art, music, plot, etc. should be scored based on if they help the anime or not. That doesn't necessarily mean it has to be good quality. That's why, once again, I will say I'm not joking or exaggerating…

(Spoiler-free review, not that there's much to spoil in the first place. . .) This anime can be successfully summed up by that one picture of Sakuya in the black shirt with nipple holes. It's revolting to look at, mildly disturbing, super rapey, and flat as a sheet, but will have you crying laughing at 2 AM as you realize it's the most flawless thing you've seen in years. Simply put, it's beautiful and I will never regret my perfect ten for this series. I love it and there will never be a more flawless meme ever churned out by the anime industry.

My story with this show begins as quickly as it ends. It was a warm summer night, I was feeling especially alone. It was at around 12:30 when a light began to shine in my dark room. 5 godly figures whose brightness exceeded that of every star, and spoke thus. "The pain you've been feeling won't compare to the joy that We shall bless you with." they spoke in unison. "Taste and see that the lords are good; blessed is the one that takes refuge in them." Those words that were spoken unto me, gave me the motivation to continue living. One of the heavenly bodies reached his smooth hand and touched my laptop. "My child," he said in a voice that made me quiver in ecstasy, "I give unto you my greatest blessing." My CRT began to quake with the power of a thousand suns; it wasn't the VCR this time .…

I watched this at 1am and actually cried laughing. The art is terrible, the story is terrible, the characters make no sense, and I love it. This is the best parody of those generic school yaoi/BL dramas that could ever be conceived. Everyone looks like they were drawn by a not-artistically-gifted 6th grader that just got into anime. The main character has no eyes and his 7 year old sister remembers playing with one of the MCs friends from 7 years ago. They blow up like 3 buildings. A guy dies and comes back to life. In the ending song the characters distort into oblivion in time to the music. I felt like I was suffering some kind of trauma-induced shock while watching it. TLDR: Gakuen Handsome needs to be put in the art museum where it belongs.

To be clear: this is yaoi SATIRE. Unless you've been a weeb since the days of newgrounds, you're not going to get this. ART: Imagine every thirteen year old's deviant art account when they started watching anime. That is the art of this show. And it was intended. The pointy chins, the yaoi hands- all intended. Literally every possible thing is wrong with the art, shading, proportions, perspective, everything. The characters are exaggerated versions of BL art style and the main character has no face which makes it fairly quirky SOUND: Pretty good actually. Goes to show that the animators actually do know what they're doing. And that (again) the horrible art is intended. CHARACTER: Every trope and stereotype exists in this show. Every line is either super rapey or absolutely stock…
