Today in Class 5-2
Posted in zero thoughts by moyism on March 23rd, 2006
Today in Class 5-2 (Kyou no Go no Ni) is a short one volume manga by Sakuraba Koharu, creator of the also hilarious Minami-ke manga. To put it simply, Today in Class 5-2 follows the lives of one fifth grade class and the various hijinks they get themselves into. Sounds pretty standard right? The kicker is the seemingly innocent lives of fifth graders are taken to a new level through straight comedy and sexual innuendo that only an adult or perverted minded individual could enjoy. The fact that the characters’ faces are sometime drawn more adult-like, making the kids’ situations look all that more perverted also doesn’t hurt either.
For more information about the series, the brief review found on Manganews.net accompanied with Matthew’s excellent review of the manga will help fill in the gaps I’ve left.
If you are anything like abq or are a lolicon-in-training, Today in Class 5-2 is a must watch. Hands down (in the pants if you are a raging lolicon).
“If you don’t stop making that face, this is going up there. Got it?”

“Not Safe For Work if people think you are a potential pedophile *looks over shoulder*”
“He caught a bite”
“And she’s not letting go at all cost!”
“Two more minutes teacher! You can go afterwards!”
“It smelled…”
“… and was so small”
“Kana Ueda fanboyism alert”
“I so could have played Kazuma Azuma from Yakitate!! Japan“
“Every female’s worst nightmare that doesn’t involve a tentacle monster”
“Oh sh*t! She’s a he!?!?”
“No fifth grader can look that hot”
“I swear she was in a hentai once!”
“Experiment failed: Cannot create fire by striking two big foreheads together”
“Knows his deep dark secret that he co-wrote Gundam SEED Destiny“

*mumbles* “Must control spending……must keep my budget in line….” *mumbles*
Final kicker was how Chika looks so much like Sakuya (from Sister Princess)….
Guess I will skip the FMP:TSR OVA……

love your captions, but i don’t think the show is quite as lolirific as you seem to think. I guess it depends on what you focus on. in my review (shameless plug) i was looking more at the merits of the story rather then the fan service :\
