Synopsis

“I hate humans.” After a significant event, Zero Ningen, a former teacher who became a reclusive adult, developed a genuine trauma regarding people. One day, while browsing a job website, he finds a vacancy with the phrase: “We are looking for a teacher who cares about the students.” Driven by impulse, he decides to apply. To his surprise, he is quickly hired and sent to a school surrounded by nature in the mountains. But there was an unexpected detail: this was a school where non-human girls study to become human!

Thus, A Misanthrope Teaches a Class for Demi-Humans ( Jingai Kyōshitsu no Ningen-girai Kyōshi ) is a Japanese light novel series written by Natsume Kurusu and illustrated by Sai Izumi . It was published under Media Factory's MF Bunko J imprint in February 2022.
