A high-energy shounen comedy that wraps an absurdist assassination premise around genuine pedagogy and found-family warmth, balancing action spectacle with character growth and emotional investment.
The students of Class 3-E have a mission: kill their teacher before graduation. He has already destroyed the moon, and has promised to destroy the Earth if he can not be killed within a year. But how can this class of misfits kill a tentacled monster, capable of reaching Mach 20 speed, who may be the best teacher any of them have ever had?
