[size=3][font=sans-serif]A bizarre high school comedy anime and manga series, set in a school populated by the "worst" delinquents in Japan. Also known as [/font][i]Sakigake Cromartie Koukou[/i][font=sans-serif].[/font]

[font=sans-serif]The denizens of Cromartie are all about looking tough, acting tough, rumbles, fights and all that gangster stuff. Mostly, they just talk a good game, and the action centers on Seinfeldian Conversations, (very) weird stuff happening, and a plot about as coherent and logical as [i]Excel Saga[/i] played backwards.[/font]

[font=sans-serif]The art style is cribbed heavily from classic fighting Manga such as Fist of the North Star and Crying Freeman. Characters often have inner monologues held in a tableau, as they look off into the distance, only to be interrupted by yet another crazy situation.[/font]

[font=sans-serif]Even stranger than the delinquents themselves are the oddball creatures that wander the halls. There's Mechazawa, who is a trashcan-like robot, but neither he nor his friends even seem to realize it; the protagonist hasn't worked up the courage to ask about it directly. Cromartie's other students include aliens, monkeys, and some dude who is very obviously Freddie Mercury on a horse.[/font]

[font=sans-serif]It's a random, crazy ass slice of life anime with no story progression or major character development at all. And it's amazing. Discuss.[/font][/size]
