Assassination Classroom

Yusei Matsui’s Assassination Classroom (2014–2018, Carlsen Comics [DE]) is a 21-issue manga series where a class of misfit students must kill their own smiling, tentacled teacher before he destroys the Earth—but he’s also the best educator they’ve ever had. Blending dark comedy, heartfelt school drama, and sci-fi action, Matsui writes and illustrates every chapter, creating a uniquely warm yet high-stakes world. This German edition collects the full run of a series that became a global phenomenon for its surprising emotional depth and its clever twist on the “classroom” genre.
