    Been reading “Demoted to a teacher the strongest sage raises an unbeatable class” myself. Not sure what original japanese title is, but it’s also probably a mouthful. It’s one of those “magic school” titles, and while there isn’t anything outstanding about it - neither characters nor plot - i haven’t felt like putting it down. A decent light read to past the time and relax after work. Art is ok, but there are quite few empty frames with only speech bubbles in them. Translation is alright too.

      I am surprised you couldn’t remember “Sasen Sareta Saikyou Kenja, Kyoushi ni Natte Muteki no Class wo Tsukuriageru” off the top of your head. It rolls right off the tongue 😝. I am glad you have liked it. I often enjoy stories from a teaching perspective, having done some teaching in the past. We get so many stories from the perspective of students in anime/manga, but the teachers are too often just background, side, or comic relief characters rather than the protagonist.

      I love series that fill this role. I often have trouble motivating myself to read the really dramatic, super serious series unless I am in the right mood. Lighter series are like a snack that I can pull up and enjoy any time (healthier than eating an actual snack).
