Synopsis of Hell Teacher Nube
What seems like a normal day at Dōmori Elementary
School is interrupted by some strange phenomenon, usually targeting one of
Nube's own students. Nube is forced into action, most often using the power of
the Demon's Hand to help solve the problem, but sometimes the solution lies
either in one of his other spiritual weapons, or in reasoning with or otherwise
appeasing the threatening entity.
In the end, things always seem to return to normal,
and Nube and his students have learned something from the experience. Most of
the series maintains an episodic formula, forgoing an overarching plot in favor
of more character-driven action, though there are several recurring
antagonists, as well as some longer story arcs toward the end of the series.
