A brief about A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School

The story of A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School follows a crybaby and timid novice teacher, Abe Haruaki, who has been appointed to teach, as much to his surprise, in a school full of youkai?! A story which portrays the weird and wonderful daily lives of a coward human teacher and his youkai students.

A Terrified Teacher at Ghoul School! is a comedy manga that revolves around the events of a human teacher who ends up being assigned to teach at a school for ghouls. A human being surrounded by supernatural beings is not necessarily new, but the comedic value still holds up in modern storytelling. The official page to purchase the manga on Yen Press summarizes it as follows:

"Rookie teacher Haruaki Abe is as cowardly as they come. It's hard enough for him to handle human students without whimpering-and now he's going to be teaching at a school full of monsters?! It's a classroom of horrors for Haruaki, as his mischievous students use every means at their disposal to prank him! Will this poor teacher be able to get his group of ghouls under control, or is this class destined for failure?"

The premise of the manga and show is one that will appeal to fans of awkward comedy and main characters that are easily scared. While there will always be more action-based anime, it is nice to see other genres getting some much-deserved attention as well.
