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?
Chapter 59: Avoiding Love in the Center of the World
>Yoko Kumada look-alike A few years ago, a self-proclaimed Yoko Kumada look-alike set fire to a vehicle and posted the photo on her blog. She was arrested for arson.
this chapter introduces a new recurring character, Mr. Asou Tarou! You can find him reading Rozen Maiden here . Asou Tarou is a Japanese politician who was Minister of Foreign Affairs at the time this chapter was made. He was also Prime Minister from 08-09, and led the LDP to historically terrible election results, so he's a recurring subject of Kumeta's jokes too. there's also 1 Tsunetsuki, 1 pantyshot, 2 Uropen, 0 Amakudari-sama, 1 Miss Yoshiko Sakurai, 1 stork and baby, 1 stick dog, 1 eye of darkness, and 1 Mr. Asou Tarou.
>What have you been trying to avoid? Going back to work. Unemployment is sad sometimes but being a NEET is also incredibly comfy.

Thanks OP. Very depressingly relatable chapter today

thanks, OP. i've been avoiding trying to see if i can change my contracting assignments. the people here like me, my job isn't bad, and, working from home, i can take naps on the clock and still complete all of my work. but on the other hand, it's not fulfilling at all and i'm just a member of a soulless bureaucracy that tracks numbers and makes new numbers to be tracked

It was shown in several chapters that no one likes Chiri and yet she always acts surprised.

thanks op. I've been trying to avoid doing anything lately, but thinking about the stuff I have to do is making me anxious. it's nice having free time but the best is not having any pressure
