Haruaki Abe's career as a teacher in the most unorthodox environment continues in this fourth volume of the manga series that is winning hearts around the globe! 

So....who thought it was a good idea to let Haruaki fill in as the school disciplinary patrol?! He's literally the least terrifying teacher!? The students quite literally walk all over him, not to mention the teachers vs students showdown. The first few chapters of this brand new volume kind of showcase just how pitiful Haruaki is which is kind of a downer considering he actually got to shine a lot last volume. After that start, we have one more ridiculously hilarious chapter involving a love perfume that ended up with the characters being all extra like they're in a zombie apocalypse movie. 

Then we had in to a new story arc. But fear not, it's not serious and it's the worst group of villains you've ever seen, but through them we learn of Miki's hilarious weakness. Plus one of the bad guys reveals that he knew Haruaki's ancestor who had the same power as him...and it would seem the Principal did too which explains their comments from last volume. Honestly they're dangling Haruaki's power and his ancestors in front of us and I'm still waiting to see if they're going to make it a Thing or just throw it in here and there for laughs and to add to the tension. While I'm excited at the prospect of potentially seeing the villains again, I'm more and more curious about Haruaki's relative and just what his power can do. Forever hopeful we'll get to see. 

In lighter news, Maizuka and Sano's bromance is next level and Sano finally manages to use his power correctly. Everyone give him a round of applause! We also get to meet a tonne of new youkai throughout the hijinks, which I'm always here for because I love the little descriptions we get. 

Haruaki's twin resurfaces as well, Amaaki. I was kind of hoping to see more of him because I find him hilariously opposite to Haruaki. 

Volume 4 is a ridiculously hilarious volume, each chapter may be a separate story and not a continuous arc but they are all linked together nicely. There are more hints dropped about Haruaki and his power and the Principal being obsessed with his ancestor, if there's going to be something big with it...we're building up to it slowly. Volume 4 is fun and entertaining as you can expect from this series, and it's the exact opposite of last volume when we got to see Haruaki shine. Although there's the heart warming moment the students come to check on "him" and showed his brother that really...he is cared for. Bless. Honestly this volume just reads like a comedy of errors!
