Prison School (2015–2016) User Reviews

Really laughed my a*se off with this sleazy anime

[Irishchatter · 8/10 · 2 September 2018]

Jesus, this anime really made me laugh all through its episodes. Normally Ecchi anime like High school Dxd, would make me really want to pass them for good but this one, I swear was one of the good ones I've ever bumped into! I didn't care about it being overly filled with sex jokes or cleavage but rather have likeable characters, good storyline and just great humour that would literally make you laugh your head off!

Honestly, watch it if you don't believe me, it's one of the better Ecchi animes I've seen so far!

An Ecchi Anime, and a Good One.

[truebeliever-75237 · 8/10 · 31 July 2017]

This show got me by surprise. First of all I try to watch mainly seinen anime, and mixed with those are some ecchi anime. Most of them are just trash and I quit after just a few episodes. Rarely I watch one until the very end and very few rise from the bottom to get a score from 5 to 7. But this show did more than that, it got an 8.

It is an ecchi anime (there is no denying that fact), but the first one of the genre that I truly liked, because of the story. It is very funny and characters are more close to have real personalities than most animes. And certainly much more than ecchi animes.

The story meshes really well with the ecchi parts, making them really fluid, after all this an anime about a group of horny guys locked in prison. There is the mandatory bath scene, but gladly the anime stays for the most part away from baths and ripped clothes. Relying more on camera angles and strange situations.

Surprised how much I enjoyed this.

First venture into this genre (Ecchi) and while watching it I managed to wake my wife up twice as I tried to suppress laughter...

When my mildly annoyed wife asked what was so funny the only thing I could think of why was telling her I was watching an animated version of "Revenge of the Nerds" (dating myself I know) but it's the closest analogy I could dredge up in the moment..

It's completely ridiculous, over the top and shameless, but somehow it works and before long the 12 episode arc was finished...

we need season 2

[yadgarnawzad · 10/10 · 7 January 2020]

Actually its a good worthy anime .. wish to see season 2 and more :D

Fantastic and Addictive

[js-57445 · 10/10 · 7 August 2017]

I love this anime very addictive and cunning. What i loved about this show is the twists and the likable characters involved. I rate this a 10 as it is very gripping and interesting as they need to find a way to escape the prison.

the best thing about this show is that the characters are very human meaning that they have a human personality. This is what makes you relate to the characters and warm to them.

The plot of the story is brilliant as it makes you want to continue watching to the very end.

I very highly Recommend this anime, as i don't really watch anime's and this had me watching all the anime to the end as i enjoyed it. I also highly recommend the manga of the prison school as it better then the anime. As you get to hear the characters thoughts more.

LOVE IT

Weird & Great show

[HarleyRose1 · 7/10 · 14 January 2020]

What. a. storyline. Funny. Ridiculous. Harsh. Embarrassing. Excessive violence. Weird under-the-skirt-shoots. Many great on-liners. Brilliant. Love it!

Super Stylized Ecchi show which needs a second season

[sanskarabsent · 10/10 · 1 January 2021]

I stumbled upon this anime few months, but didn't wanted to watch it because I thought well its just another cheap adult-comedy... until recently, when I started watching this. This anime had a very broad spectrum of emotions and feel to it. The mood changes in this show are so seamless that you start to wonder why doesn't other shows start doing this. The comic timing is so so good that your stomach is gonna hurt, GURANTEED! The creators took inspiration from many major titles, like the character design, action style, and many more. I don't want to spoil this anime for you, but the ending of this is the most satisfying one I've ever seen. PLEASE MAKE SEASON 2,3,4...

Good for a laugh

[MiZta425 · 7/10 · 21 March 2019]

I enjoyed this anime quite a bit, there were a few scenes and plotlines through out the season that I felt dragged on for too long, but the dialogue between the characters, the fantastic animation, and the hilarious One Punch Man-like facial expressions throughout the series kept me watching.

I've been hearing around the internet that season 2 of this show is being made. Whenever it's true or not, i'll happily give a 2nd of season of this show a watch.

Overall amazing

[backfromthedepth · 10/10 · 8 July 2019]

Tbh if prison school doesn't receive a second season Id be seriously disappointed spot on for the manga and the animation is on point I could understand HOTD not receiving a second season do to the creator dying but an on going manga that I would literally kill for to see the conclusion animated would be a shame not to see it follow through pls tell me there is more to look forward to sub or dub IDC as a huge fan I really look forward to a conclusion to the anime

Worth watching the uncensored version

[ceojonathanmontgomery · 7/10 · 1 July 2023]

Hello Fellow Humans,

Prison School is an all female school that let 5 boys join for some odd reason. Apparently in Japan in high school you live on campus or maybe this is a special private school. Either way this school has a small prison on campus for some reason. If it was an all girls school before this year then why the prison? What did this school do to girls? Very odd indeed. But at last the 5 boys did what any high school boy would do when living with a 1000 high school girls they attempted to peep while they bathe.

But because of this they are sentenced to 30 days in this prison. Where 3 psycho high school girls beat the living crap out of these boys. It is insane the amount of abuse they give these boys. Not sure what Japan is saying but from this anime they are saying Japanese women are insane psychos that will try and kill you literally for some type of accident. The blonde girl is the craziest and most unstable of the three girls. She really should be in a mental hospital.

The show is hilarious though and worth watching but make sure you watch the uncensored version as the censored version is pointless to watch. You might as well watch the anime in all it's glory and craziness. Also Japanese men apparently are extremely timid and submissive according to this show. No wonder japanese women are given the most marriage visas in the United States. They are trying to escape their timid, submissive, hairless men.

Sophmoric male humor but... I laughed out loud.

[bogus-bogus-one · 8/10 · 18 October 2019]

I saw this title in the Top Ten Anime list. After a few miutes I thought "well... this is stupid" but (luckily) I contiued on. I was rewarded by several "laugh out loud" moments before I reached the end of episode one. Viewers should proably be forwarned that this is definitely males humor. Basically the men in this story are obsessed with the opposite sex. The women in this story tend to have a negative view of the males, "pigs" that they are. After a group of adolescent males are found guilty of peeping they are confined to the schools prison. There they are supervised by women who were reminiscent of dominatrix's. I know the premise sounds a bit risky but (my opinion) the humor was not "dirty" in any way, just lighthearted and extremely sophomoric. However, it may be best to get a contemporary woman's perspective on this. I'm pretty old so I can't be sure that this type of humor is wholly acceptable when today's standards are applied?

A Bizarre and Outrageous Comedy that Pushes Boundaries

[lipnusis · 7/10 · 2 June 2023]

Prison School is an anime series that embraces absurdity and pushes the boundaries of comedy, resulting in a uniquely outrageous and entertaining experience. With its offbeat humor, unexpected plot twists, and memorable characters, it stands out as a guilty pleasure for those who enjoy unconventional and over-the-top comedy.

One of the standout features of Prison School is its unabashed commitment to its own absurdity. The series centers around five male students who find themselves enrolled in a formerly all-girls school that has recently become co-ed. The ridiculous situations and outlandish humor that ensue, as the boys are subjected to strict rules and bizarre punishments, make for some genuinely hilarious moments. The over-the-top comedic style, characterized by exaggerated facial expressions, slapstick humor, and overblown reactions, keeps the audience engaged and constantly surprised.

The animation in Prison School is solid, with attention to detail and smooth character movements. The exaggerated character designs, particularly the voluptuous female characters, contribute to the comedic effect and add to the overall visual appeal. The art style effectively captures the comedic tone and enhances the comedic timing of the series.

Prison School boasts a colorful and diverse cast of characters, each with their own quirks and idiosyncrasies. The interactions between the male protagonists and the female student council members, who enforce the strict rules, provide a constant source of comedic tension. The dynamic between the characters and their unique personalities contribute to the series' humor and create memorable moments of comedic chemistry.

While Prison School primarily focuses on comedy, it also incorporates elements of romance and drama, adding depth to the overall narrative. The series occasionally explores the characters' personal struggles and the complexities of their relationships, offering moments of emotional resonance amidst the comedic chaos. However, these elements are not fully developed and often take a backseat to the outrageous comedy.

One potential drawback of Prison School is its excessive use of fan service and sexual humor. While it aligns with the series' overall tone and contributes to the comedic effect, it may not appeal to all viewers and can feel gratuitous at times. The frequent objectification of female characters may be off-putting or uncomfortable for some.

In conclusion, Prison School is a bizarre and outrageous comedy that pushes boundaries and revels in its own absurdity. With its offbeat humor, unexpected plot twists, and memorable characters, it provides an entertaining and guilty pleasure viewing experience. While it may not be everyone's cup of tea due to its reliance on fan service and sexual humor, those who appreciate over-the-top comedy and don't mind the occasional crude joke will find enjoyment in this unconventional series.

Ok I guess.

[invisibleunicornninja · 5/10 · 25 September 2018]

This is an ecchi comedy anime, meaning it only works for you if you find it funny. While I like the animation and all the technical aspects, I really don't find this show to be very funny.

An Ecchi Comedy.

[yorae · 8/10 · 18 January 2017]

I watched this at the suggestion of a friend and was quite surprised at how good it was.

The animation is very ecchi and has a lot of unique angle perspectives common when doing fan service. It reminded me of High School of the Dead's cinematography. Some of it is a bit ridiculous like Meiko and her breast size, but some of it was actually used to create great moments, especially with Hana. (personal bias) Plot is quite simple, some guys go to a new school that used to be girls only and being desperate they hope having 200 girls to 1 guy will help them in finding girlfriends. They get imprisoned in the schools detention block.

The main character Kiyoshi is quite likable and it's a strong coming of age story with good friendship bonding moments. I'd say its bros before hoes, but generally, the bros are working together in an effort to get hoes and they do betray each other in further their own causes. They learn about helping each other, in particular Gakuto helps them realize this by using a lot of Romance of the Three Kingdoms stories and references.

The humour is a mix of blue jokes, and slice of life scenarios. I usually find blue jokes rather detrimental to a story and while they didn't always help, they didn't always hurt this series and many times they are the straw men to move the plot forward.

Overall it was a great experience and the only things that make me take points off are some of the ecchi choices and the main character has instant infatuation with one girl and instant loyalty to that girl which I find very common in anime's. Perhaps I don't watch enough romance anime, but I would like the main character to keep their options open once in a while and experiment in different relationships but that's probably all coming back to the personal bias for Hana.

Much more light hearted than advertised.

[kegebler · 8/10 · 30 August 2020]

I saw this anime on a few horror reviews and genres and I thought that was not the case. It's a very funny light-hearted anime about 5 teenagers (guys) getting put in an all-girls school and then winding up in a campus prison and trying to escape. It is at times a little raunchy but still funny. Also deals with a lot of secondary issues and role reversal. Overall it was a short but funny watch. Do not forget to watch after the end credits as the true ending.

"This poor boy's tongue is not responsible for your boots' shininess!""

[Groverdox · 7/10 · 13 November 2023]

After watching "Highschool of the Dead", I decided to try some other ecchi, because I liked that one. I tried "Highschool DxD" first, but didn't like it, because it got bogged down in too much of the typical anime crap.

So I dropped that one and went to "Prison School". This one is pretty good. I didn't really find it funny - only two anime have made me laugh to date - but it was okay.

It is about five boys who are the first to attend a private girls school which has recently gone co-ed. They expect to be rolling in women but being mostly awkward and unattractive are not able to make it happen. The hero, and probably best looking, Kiyoshi, is the first to actually talk to a girl when he finds one who shares his interest in sumo (how many girls would be into that?)

The other guys want to peep on the girls though, and it shows the girls bathing, where all their breasts look exactly the same. Did whoever wrote the "Prison School" manga give all the girl characters the breast shape he prefers?

The boys are caught and the girls are somehow able to put them on trial, and even sentence them, to the school's "prison". What kind of school has a prison? Is it a joke about the fact that school itself may as well be a prison, ie. Forcing everybody to dress the same and not allowing them to leave?

Doubtful.

Anyway, this is obviously all ridiculous, but it's never funny. One thing I wish anime would stop doing is showing characters suddenly frothing at the mouth and yelling out inane rubbish like a crazy person. It's not funny.

hilarious.

[alexscanio45 · 8/10 · 21 October 2019]

Hilarious. you won't regret it. one of the funniest animes i've seen.

Unique

[mosesafr · 8/10 · 4 May 2020]

Not like anything I've seen before, I've watched a lot of anime and this one really stands out, despite swinging between misogyny and misandry while being drenched in lewdness it has a weird charm to it that's hard to explain. It's just unforgettable, the characters are all memorable and it'll make you cry from laughter every 2 minutes

Can't wait anymore for season 2

[yadav-39462 · 10/10 · 16 May 2021]

Its more than a lot please give us a season 2........🙏🙏🙏🙏

Sucks balls!

[wellwisger · 1/10 · 12 June 2021]

Never thought an anime could be so boring. Nothing interesting at all.

Excellent Strategies

[iamdcontingency · 8/10 · 8 September 2019]

The best anime tv series I've ever seen. The strategies used in the plot line are classic!!

Extremely great ecchi comedy and super tense finale

[leandtjen · 9/10 · 27 January 2022]

Unironically the funniest show I've ever seen that made me wake up my siblings in the room next to me because I couldnt stop laughing at 3am. To top it off I once ate food while watching this and almost choked to death lol (not really, but I choked). It has some plot holes but if you're willing to look over that its fine, because it enables this animes comedy and lets it happen (For example the whole story being set literally in a prison school, which would most likely be illegal and nonsensical). Though this anime actually grows into an extremely intense finale that hooked me quite like Death Note did where I couldnt stop watching as so many objects began moving in the plot to the point it really just became truly unpredictable, and yet it was so funny at the same time with a great and funny build up too. Lastly, this anime actually has really good animationsy which is VERY unique given its genres and it allows very funny face expressions and movements. Its really above average and it does great, props to whoever animated this anime. I love everything of this anime.

A Peculiar and Hilarious Ecchi Anime

[CyrilMartin · 8/10 · 28 January 2021]

This is my first ecchi anime and all I got to say is that I'm impressed with this genre and am looking forward to reading the manga. This is a weird anime for sure with a bizarre storyline and concepts but it never fails to make you laugh.

The story is about 5 boys who got admitted to Hachimitsu Academy, who for the first time is admitting boys to the institution. As you can guess the boys were all perverts and the guys were ratioed to 1:200. The boys got caught while pulling a stunt by checking out the girls changing room and they were all sent to school's prison, yep that sounds weird but trust me the fun starts from then. Got a brilliant final episode and an epilogue to set season 2 in the run, this was really a fun ride.

The story gave us more intense and gripping scenes than a crime anime, got strong antagonists with an evil plot, the bizarre comedy was all over the place, amazing characters, the animation was fantastic the voice actors were great, the facial expression and the weird sounds made it more hilarious. Looking forward to season 2 if they're making it and they totally deserve it. Totally recommend checking it out.

got of ichee anime

[dkamla-53919 · 9/10 · 23 July 2021]

It should be your first priority if you are going to watch ichee anime first time 😂👍.

Some of the funniest stuff i have ever seen

[hoehnandi · 8/10 · 7 February 2022]

Honestley love this series. Laughed my ass of multiple times. Jokes are set up really well. Sometime extremley dragged out, but executed in such a good way that it still remains funny. The stylistic choices were genius. So damn funny.

Still can't rate this anything higher than an 8/10 in good faith.
