Nozomu Itoshiki is depressed. Very depressed. He’s certifiably suicidal, but he’s also the beloved schoolteacher of a class of unique students, each charming in her own way: The stalker. The shut-in. The obsessive-compulsive. The girl who comes to class every day with strange bruises. And Kafuka, the most optimistic girl in the world, who knows that every cloud has a silver lining. For all of them, it’s a special time, when the right teacher can have a lasting positive effect on their lives. But is that teacher Itoshiki, a.k.a. Zetsubou-sensei, who just wants to find the perfect place to die?
>Yukidoke In this chapter, the author uses the term “yukidoke” (melting snow) to refer metaphorically to the reconciliation, or “warming,” of an icy relationship.
>A conflict between two nations is resolved thanks to a beautiful twelve-year-old girl This is a reference to celebrity Saya lrie’s effect on the relationship between China and Japan. Apparently, somebody posted a message with her photo on a Chinese website as a statement for world peace, which helped start some reconciliation between the two nations.
And that's all for today. The snow around here is really melting today, so it's a rather fitting chapter for me. Are you a very forgiving person, or do you tend to hold grudges?
Never had reason to hold a grudge but even then I don't feel like a guy who holds them.

Yeah obviously that didn't last long.

Shouldn't Komori's panties on the title page be counted as a pantyshot? Or does it only count Kaere pantyshots?
