About A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans

If you are hunting for a new comedy series, A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans (人外教室の人間嫌い教師) deserves a look (2026). The setup goes like this. What the story covers: After a traumatic incident ends his teaching career, Rei Hitoma is certain he hates humans. Yet when he sees a job for “a teacher who truly cares for their students,” he’s compelled to apply.

Along the way, before he knows it, he’s hired—only to find out his learners are demi-humans. What begins as a job becomes an adventure for healing for both a teacher who’s lost faith in humanity and learners who dream of it.

With comedy at the core, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Rei Hitoma (Toshiki Masuda) and Sui Usami (Maria Naganawa) are two of the characters you will meet early. It will appeal most to viewers who want something light between heavier series. The run is 13 episodes in total, so you know what you are signing up for.
