Folks, meet Takashi Kamiyama. Enrolled at Cromartie High, where everybody is a delinquent, Kamiyama is apparently the only non-delinquent in the school. Logically, therefore, he must be the toughest in his class - by the rather twisted logic that only a really tough rabbit would lie down with lions. Thus begins a story that parodies every cliché of tough-guy anime that you've ever heard of, and some you haven't. Oh, and Freddie Mercury is in it, too.

[i]The anime is nominted and rewarded as one of the best English dubs ever made![/i]

[b]-- Trivia --[/b]

- The English title of volume 1 DVD release, "Cromartian Rhapsody", is a parody of the 1975 Queen song "Bohemian Rhapsody". The cover is also a parody of Queen's 1974 album Queen II.
- The English title of volume 2 DVD release, "Hey Dude", is a parody of the 1968 Beatles song "Hey Jude". (Hey Dude is also a parody song on a Beatallica album.) The cover is a parody of The Beatles album Please Please Me.
- The English title and cover of the volume 3 DVD release, "Sailin' Fools", is a parody of the 1972 Little Feat album Sailin' Shoes.
However, the English volume 3 title was advertised as "Dumb as You Are" on the volume 2 DVD. The name is a parody of Nirvana's 1991 single Come as You Are.
- The English cover of the volume 4 DVD release, "Mount Rockmore", is a parody of the 1970 Deep Purple album In Rock.
- The Japanese original soundtrack album's CD cover is a parody of the 1991 Nirvana album Nevermind.
- A reference to a Warren Cromartie Secondary School appears in the cover art for Rush's album Signals.
- Dejiko, Puchiko and Piyoko from the anime Di Gi Charat make several cameos in the anime. They are voiced by their original voice actors, Asami Sanada, Miyuki Sawashiro and Megumi Hayashibara, respectively.
- The series began running in the United States on the cable network G4 on its Barbed Wire Biscuit late-night block and on the UK satellite channel Rockworld TV.
- Each high school in the district is named for a notable Gaijin (non-Japanese) player who became famous in Japanese professional baseball: Randy Bass, Charlie Manuel, Orestes Destrade, Tony Bernazard (manga only), and, of course, Warren Cromartie.
- The mystery song being hummed in episode 3 is "Ningen Nante" by Takuro Yoshida, who also performed the opening theme.
- The last episode of the show is a parody of Maria-sama ga Miteru. This is due to the opening title of the show, the type of uniforms worn by the students and the look of the campus itself. Kamiyama and Hayashida's hairstyle look like Yoshino Shimazu and Yumi Fukuzawa from said show respectively. Despite the look of the parody, Hokuto once again wears the wrong uniform; a standard blue and white sailor-school uniform, where he wears a white skirt instead.
- In the manga, each chapter title is usually a song title, a song lyric, or even a parody of a title or lyric.

[POLOPOZOZO]

I like the part where the 16 year old looks 40, because anime always tries to pull that shit and it's dumb.

[Darth-Veger]

Listen carefully on the first video, 2:04
While the head is growing (All anime's has this effect that the head slowly grows to add some dramatic to it) you hear a sort of stretching rubber sound :v:

[LeonS]

Watched it all like three times, probably the only "anime" I like, if it can even be called anime due to the lack of animation. :v:

[Missing User]

It's not made for anime haters, it's just made for people who like anime that's actually [b]decent.[/b]

[Darth-Veger]

Of course its not aimed for the haters.
But i guess most people hate the over-done style of all anime.

thats why i added "For anime haters" in the title since its just spoofing other anime's

[editline]15th October 2010[/editline]

Added lots of new content

[acon5]

Love the series. EP4 is probably my favourite.

[Nelth]

Probably my favorite anime, along with The Boondocks.

[Doriol]

[QUOTE=Nelth;25420766]Probably my favorite anime, along with The Boondocks.[/QUOTE]

Except that isn't anime.

[Nelth]

Kind of looks like it.

[Darth-Veger]

I felt :saddowns: this day, While i was making the thread i thought, lets watch the series.

Now i am 100% :buddy:

[Darth-Veger]

Another update!

[Mr. Scorpio]

best anime ever

[MegaJohnny]

Is this the show with the internet troll scene? That was brilliant.

[Darth-Veger]

[QUOTE=MegaJohnny;25437588]Is this the show with the internet troll scene? That was brilliant.[/QUOTE]

[url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrI7QUJfkvI]Yep, Internet Troll[/url]

[Nutnoze]

6:45

Oh my god, [b]this is a non-sequitur![/b]

[Darth-Veger]

Yep. its random :v:

[Botchee]

I love the terrible and random animations. Makes it funnier.

[Murky42]

Yeah it is.
It is also brilliant.

[Leg of Doom]

The only asian propaganda you can watch without being a traitor

[Yusuf]

I love this show.

[B1N4RY!]

What the fuck

[POLOPOZOZO]

Well I watched it all, it ended... really abruptly.

[Sporkfire]

So true, I can't stand anime, I really can't. But ever since I saw the "Internet Troll" bit, I fell in love with it. Shame it didn't last long, it was like an anime without all the annoying parts, and the parts that sometimes were deemed annoying were made satirical... or so I like to think.

[Cobbart]

The first episode had me laughing my ass off.

'If you want to look like a bad ass just dye your hair blond! But be careful if you put to much on you'll look like a pussy...'

[Devil Traitor]

I love this show, but you're in the wrong section.

[-AJ-]

Awesome, but it ended too abruptly.

[benos]

[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aJp6q8mFua8[/media]

The Bohemian Rhapsody parody of it.

[vagrant]

hopefully the anime world will stop doing everything this show is parodying, and then start making more genuinely good series.

[Domamin]

[QUOTE=vagrant;25502124]hopefully the anime world will stop doing everything this show is parodying, and then start making more genuinely good series.[/QUOTE]

yeah, thats never gonna happen
