About the series
In this short but memorable 2016 series from Viz, a team of elementary school students turns their classroom into a courtroom, tackling everyday school disputes with mock trials and surprising legal flair. Written by Nobuaki Enoki and Mari Morimoto, with art by the legendary Takeshi Obata (of Death Note fame) and James Gaubatz, the series blends Obata's clean, expressive style with a lighthearted premise that makes legal concepts accessible to young readers. Though only three issues long, it stands out as a playful, inventive crossover of school-life comedy and courtroom drama.
