Poster for Gakuen Handsome

Gakuen Handsome

2016–2017 · 1 season

A rapid-fire burst of deadpan absurdity, sending up romance tropes with straight-faced silliness and zero self-consciousness.

Genres
Animation, Comedy
Overview
The school love story is set at Baramon High School, a private boys' school for the prefecture's most elite. The protagonist is a seventeen year old boy who transfers into the school and meets various major players on campus, such as the outlaw teacher, the soccer captain, and a childhood friend whom the protagonist has not seen for seven years. The school presents opportunities for friendship, love and conflict, and changes are now bound to happen in the main character's life.
How it feels

About

Content
