Sayonara, Zetsubou-Sensei : the power of negative thinking 2 / Koji Kumeta ; translated and adapted by Joyce Aurino ; lettered by Foltz Design.
Meet the most melancholy high school teacher in Japan: Nozomu Itoshiki, whose fashion sense is strictly nineteenth-century, whose personal goal is self-annihilation, and whose signature phrase is 'I'm in despair!' He's similar to Franz Kafka and Jean-Paul Sartrre-- if Kafka and Sartre had had to deal with a classroom of short-skirted, lovesick students. And to make matters worse, Itoshiki's family wants him to get married. Forget the bride, here comes the gloom!
