    "Lock them up and throw away the key."

    This is a disgraceful adaptation to its animated counterpart. It's tedious, rushed, and at most a terribly filmed experience for hardcore fans and newcomers. In this live adaptation of the animated series Prison School, the plot follows a group of seemingly innocent individuals who become embroiled into school imprisonment after an unfortunate misconduct. Afterwards, they're forced to endure the wrath of an abusive female overlord while utilizing teamwork to outsmart the system.

    What the animated series did in many ways that the live-action adaptation failed to do was capture the atmosphere of the manga. Each episode proved to have significant devotion to the source material, despite some petty changes, and remained faithful enough to warrant its purpose. This "adaptation" however couldn't prove worthiness even if it meant saving the careers of the actors who mildly shared any resemblance to the original characters.

    It immediately loses its flair upon its first episode by outright betraying the source material. It thinks nobody would notice how uncomfortably unenthusiastic and stupid it was. It takes amazing material from its source and ravages it into a completely shortened, misguided, and humorlessly dreadful adaptation with less than worthwhile redeeming qualities. Whether it's about its lame censorship, missing content, outdated cinematography, and shallow acting, this "remake" loosely satisfies fans and unfulfilled its comparisons in the worst imaginable way possible.

    Don't release these degenerates. Lock them up and throw away the key.

    CHANGED MY LIFE THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

    Started watching this show today and absolutely love it. The characters are complex and interesting. The comedy is so funny and nearly fell down the stairs lol. Episode 1 is a great episode as it's funny and it makes you really care for the protagonist. It being live action makes it even more funny! Every episode gets funnier and funnier. I can't wait to carry on the series and see what happens next with the amazing cast of characters that all have interesting back stories and all have time to shine. So thankfully I cams across this series and hope more people get to read this amazing story thank you!

    Noboru Iguchi fans will enjoy it

    The most similar thing to Sion Sono's Minna! ESPer Dayo!, also based on a manga.

    Doesn't get as hentai as that one though as most of the actresses are younger. This one feels more childish with very stupid jokes. For example, a boy sees a girl taking a piss and the girl demands the boy to take a piss in front of her as revenge (it escalates quickly).

    All characters are funny and have their own personalities, with the blond girl beeing my favourite one. This miniseries has 9 episodes in total with 25 minutes each, which makes it very easy to watch.
