Prison School review
This manga is extremely funny. Several times I have busted a gut laughing. The reason I find Kangoku Gakuen so good is because of the characters. The main guys are all unique. The story becomes rather serious dealing with things such as betrayal, and humiliation; sometimes this is funny but at other times it is sad. The comedy is over the top, it's just hilarious. Another good thing about this manga is that you can feel the emotions certain characters are feeling. These characters (at least to me) can be something people can relate to; I have pooped my pants once (never in school). To
sum this up give School Prison a chance. It's amazing, it's something you have to see with your own eyes. The art is amazing as well.
Final Score as of chapter 46 - 10/10
This is my first review, so sorry if it sucked and it probably did. And for those who say "how can this guy even review this, Kangoku Gakuen is not even done" - well, I know Kangoku Gakuen can only get better. It's like the snowball effect, just epic.

Prison School review
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!
Just when I'm starting to move away from manga to manhwa, this one held me back.
The author is a genius. He knows what the readers want. And his art style is amazing. AMAZING.
The story is just as awesome, I don't think I've ever managed to predict any event in this manga correctly. The unpredictability is VERY strong with this one.
You may be annoyed at certain characters at times, but believe me, they get better!
I think I'm addicted. I even read the Japanese version just to be sure I'm not missing anything, despite my almost-non-existent Japanese.
Go ahead and read this, it's totally worth your time, even if you're running for president of the USA.
Edit: as of April 6th, 2018: The first arc is still 10/10, then it's a downhill from there.

Prison School review
So I just finished Prison School, or I think I did because the ending was disappointing and out of place as it didn’t quite wrap things up but rather ended in a circular way. Is Prison School worth a read despite its ending? Yes and no, as the ending isn’t the only bad element.
This review contains minor spoilers.
Prison School makes it clear from the very first beginning that it’s dumb and absurd. It’s not exactly your run-of-the-mill comedy that relies on cheap one-liners, inside jokes and moronic situations where a character trips over nothing and ends up groping a female like in To-love Ru or any other ecchi comedies. It goes beyond that by being nonsensical as well as relying on misunderstandings, from guys giving weird relationship advices to people worshipping a plastic bottle. No, I am not joking.
Prison School revolves around 5 guys attending an all-girls school but ending up in a prison inside the school itself for breaking the rules, so they decide to break out. Unfortunately, the whole prison idea stops being the focal point of the series midway. The first two arcs are solid as they revolve around breaking out from the prison in a thrilling and fun way. Will the characters work together? If so, why and most importantly how? What will happen after they break out? Well, to answer some of those questions, the breakout didn’t matter one bit afterwards. The characters didn’t really achieve their real goals, or completely forgot about them. The next arc is about a cavalry competition in a sport festival, and is the worst sub plot in the entire manga for two main reasons:
- It drags out for no reason other than to sell more volumes
- The competition ends in a *drum roll* draw! and the reason why I’m spoiling the result is because it doesn’t matter in the long run! This whole filler arc drags itself over the mud unwillingly and in a sloppy manner and doesn’t resolve the real conflict between the characters.
The following arc is slightly better since it focuses more on character interactions and aims to tie some loose ends between their relationships. Except, it doesn’t manage to succeed. In the final arc, the author flushes the buildup and development of the characters down the drain and ends his story haphazardly by having the characters return to their original state. It’s a common way to end a story when you have no idea how to wrap it up. It’s the easiest and laziest ending one could think of, by having the story eat its own tail, and it’s probably one of the most disappointing closure to a 278 chapters manga. The author might as well not have written it in the first place unless his intentions were just to make you laugh without thinking too much of it.
And to be fair, Prison School still manages to be funny, mainly due to its characters acting in a dumb way and finding themselves in absurd situations. But every story needs some form of development, especially to its characters, and the manga fails to deliver despite succeeding in the first half.
I recommend Prison School for those who just want a good laugh or two and are willing to put up with the final two arcs out of curiosity. My advice is to skip the entire cavalry arc, and not expect too much from the ending.

Prison School review
Fuck Prison school.
Don't waste your time on this manga unless you want to experience the most cruel and sadistic joke that an author can play on his fans.
Everything that makes this manga good relies on the suspense and hope that these shitty characters will eventually triumph. For the most part this works. I was invested in seeing things working out for the characters. Unfortunately none of that matters when you don't have any pay off because every relationship and plot thread that is being built up over the course of this manga is completely unresolved or ends terribly.

Prison School review
The first arc, which is the prison is so enjoyable and funny that I considered it a masterpiece, specially the anime. The characters are really funny and the story is really interesting and also the ecchi scenes are hot as hell. The art style of the manga is awesome it has a lot of impact because of those serious detailed faces of the characters which makes it really funny. Because what they're doing is something embarrassing but they're faces are that serious which makes the manga a lot more funny.
Though as the story goes on, at the cavalry arc, it becomes boring because the arc is so long and the story became boring af, and the characters are not that impactful like before.
Then the ending, the ending is shit, the author trolled us real good. So good the the manga became fucked up but memorable.
This manga is absolutely fantastic, awesome, enjoyable, and funny as. But the ending ruins it all. Though it is supposed to be a gag manga, but damn the ending hurts. Though that being said, the manga is enjoyable and fun despite the ending being shit because the author trolled us.

Prison School review
This is not for everyone, but with what this story does it's incredible how great this series is.
The art is great, and some times it looks almost Gantz realistic. But, what's really surprising is while this is a super uncensored ecchi series it has great characters, they're all interesting and they all have good development. The story is so ridiculous that it's hard not to like this. I have to stop reading multiple times because I'm just laughing my butt off so much, or because I actually hold my arms up and cheer whenever a character pulls off their goal.
Something that is very rare in manga, is super intense suspense. The greats can pull it off like Naoki Urasawa, but Prison School is nail bitingly good. It brings in wall after wall of trouble that the characters have to go through and I swear my heart was racing multiple times reading this.
If you can handle nudity, and sexual themes that accompany Ecchi series, then I'd strongly recommend you to check this out.
