Ultimate Teacher

You arrive at a half-empty high school to find a disgraced super-educator assigned to whip the campus fight club into shape. The truant ringleader locks horns with Ganpachi whose every class ignites spontaneous brawls and whose DNA is suspiciously lab-grown. A director from the late-eighties anime boom notices how the soundtrack hurls funk samples into battle scenes and how slashed ties and sweat-stained uniforms become the school’s new dress code.
