I saw the entire series for rent at a video store and it looked pretty interesting. Anyone ever seen it? If so, is it any good?

It's a parody of the Japanese "tough high school" films. A school entirely filled with tough guy idiots and misfits, where common sense is too much to handle. It was funny. Main problem is profanity

It's supposed to air with Colorful or in December along with Colorful or something like.They had a excerpt from the manga in Anime Insider a few months back.
It looks weirdly funny.
A talking GORILLA!

Only read the excerpt from the manga in Anime Insider.

I saw it fansubbed so the profanity I saw was not necessarily what's in the official release. I know it has a TV14 rating for profanity... I suspect they stop short of the F bomb but that's about it
They do use a very rude form of Japanese though

I've seen a few episodes on Anime Network On Demand, and I wouldn't think the G4 content standards would be any less restrictive. I think the worst I've heard was a b-word, and it wasn't a case of one profanity after another. I haven't seen that many episodes of it, though.
I have read that language is an issue as well, though, and I don't know if those who said it were basing that on the TV version or the DVD version.
The show often finds its humor in visual gags, some of which you have to have a half-warped sense of humor to enjoy. In one episode the shot keeps focusing on on someone who needs to trim a nose hair.
[spoiler]Eventually the nose hair jumps from one nostril to the other. [/spoiler]
Maybe it's one of those things you have to see to find funny. But having grown up on stuff like Ren & Stimpy, I found it humorous.
