The List - 7 Worst School Teachers

Yoshiyuki Terada/Kaho Mizuki (Card Captor Sakura) Mr. Terada and Ms. Mizuki are another variation on Mr. Kimura, except they aren't played for laughs. The characters' creation was a misguided attempt by CLAMP to build on the show's theme of different kinds of love, which apparently meant glazing over two teacher-student relationships

What about Mahoromatic's Saori Shikijou and DearS's Mitsuka Yoshimine who played the oversexed teachers within their respective titles?

Ah, Kimura. The oddly lovable predator who absolutely terrified the Australian classification board.

There's no real rhyme or reason behind his motivation to kill children. The manga gives him more comprehensive motivation, explaining Gaku's relationship with his abusive older brother, but apparently just witnessing a hamster's struggle to survive drowning causes him to finally snap.

Also, Chisa Yukizome from Danganronpa 3.

It's not going to go away until culture stops telling girls they're supposed to be attracted to older men in positions of authority.

Can someone elaborate? There's something this American is obviously missing...

Well, that's not a culture thing so much as it is an evolution thing. Men are attracted to younger girls since they are more viable for producing offspring, and girls are attracted to older men since they can provide for them better. While humans have the capacity to overcome such animal instincts some people just don't.

Australia and New Zealand are both considerably anti-lolicon, in both 3D and 2D.

Saori is still a legitimate candidate, though.

Still, it's hard to argue for her being put above any of those who actually made the list. The five that I'm familiar with (sans ERASED and CCS) are all professionally reprehensible.

That is a very common argument as seen on the internet, but in terms of actual biology it lies somewhere between "so oversimplified it's wrong" and "just plain wrong". Most internet-denizens who talk about evolutionary psychology are men's-rights / PUA types, and learning evo-psych from those guys is like learning paleontology from young-earth Creationists; all you'll get is misinformation. There are actual books by actual scientists out there if you want to know about it.

Why isn't the main character of Kodomo no Jikan in there? Holy shit what a sick fudge that dude was. That manga was one of the few instances I can think of where it got licensed and then canceled because because it was so bad.

Nozomu from Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei must count too. Not only does he keep trying to suicide in front of his class, he also ends up spoiler[marrying half of his students]

Actually they teach that in actual University courses that I paid for and attended classes on campus and everything. But this stuff isn't an exact science. All you can do is look at trends and suggest possible explanations.

Not sure what basis there is to claim anything cultural is behind it, though. As girls who get older "sugar daddies" and guys who get young "trophy wives" are socially looked down upon.
