Feelings and Comments:
This is a very funny school comedy where the main topic is how an uneducated adult mafia survived school. Nagase Tomoya is not bad at all in making this comedy a successful one. Having to see his face through out the drama is enough to make you laugh.
This drama also shows that education is very important even to the mafia. School is a simulation of the society for the youngsters to learn, interact, organize, lead and makes mistakes before truly entering the competitive world. Like Sakaki Makio, many of the students already have a responsibility of preparing themselves to inherit their family business. That’s a very heavy burden only those involved can understand.
Despite that, I think the most enjoyable time of our life is school time. That is the only time for being stupid, no worries and dream wild.

I've just watched this series when a few of my friends recommended it as soon as I started my school holiday.
I couldn't agree more that having to see Nagase Tomoya's face throughout the series is enough to make us laugh.
And I like the scenes about the Agnes pudding too. They are quite similar like what happened in my very own school. The only difference is we are trying to get newspaper, not pudding. ;p
This drama did reminds me of the good old days of school time. I did a lot of crazy stuff back then. That's something that I'll remember for the rest of my life. It's good memories.
It took me a while to search on the net, only your site open up the fully details, bookmarked and thanks again.
