INTRODUCTION:
Story by Shou Makura and art by Takeshi Okano, Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube was originally serialized in SHUEISHA’s manga magazine “Weekly Shonen Jump” from 1993 to 1999. The Hell Teacher: Jigoku Sensei Nube manga has sold over a total of 29 million copies, achieving status as a legendary occult comic in Japan. While the manga’s story, based on classic ghost stories and urban legends, has delighted readers for years, the moving courage of the psychic teacher “Nube,” who protects his students from these occult threats, is what has sustained the series’ popularity for generations. As such, it was determined that it was time for Nube to return in an all-new anime adaptation, airing summer 2025!
STORY:
A number of inexplicable phenomena have been plaguing the town of Domori. In order to protect the town’s children, a new homeroom teacher known as “Nube” arrives. Normally gentle and a bit outgoing, Nube has a secret side: he is, in fact, the only psychic teacher in Japan. Rumor also has it his left hand is possessed by a demon! Hell’s messenger of justice is here to take on the school’s seven mysteries, ghosts, and evil spirits attacking his students. This occultist action story starts now!
