For a comedic series, it wasn't funny at all. I might have chuckled once throughout my entire watching of the show. The plot is stupid, which is FINE, since it is, after all, a spinoff gag show, but the premise of the show wasn't what ruined the show, it was the fact that there was absolutely no content that spurred the show on. Obviously, there are 4 different series of characters in this show, and they all were forced to participate on school life. However, it was the fact that the daily school life activites they did, whether it was a field trip, electing reps,or doing class duties, were actually just very badly done. Not a whole lot is ever put on these aspects of the "content" of the episode. I mean, the class goes on a trip to the beach, but nothing out of the ordinary happens.
Basically, every single activities the characters do, is put to the side and the same old dialogue happens no matter what actions they are doing, which just makes this show four different casts of characters trying to be funny regardless of the setting, WHICH IS FINE, but that is also poorly done. There are a whole lot of characters for a gag spinoff show with only 12 minute episodes, and as a result, almost none of them get any sort of exposure or screen time, other than the four protags obv, or if they do, it's the same old joke over and over again. So, 90% of the cast is neglected, and the main characters of the series also aren't very funny

Essentially, everything can be mended as long as the comedy was funny. Sure, setting doesn't need to matter and side characters also don't need screen time in a comedic series, but the comedy was quite dreadful. There is no meaningful dialogue between the 4 different casts of characters, which is basically the entire premise of the series. It's like I am watching four different comedy acts at the same time. No cohesion, no interest in actually talking with the other characters, and overall, not funny at all. The same jokes get thrown over and over again that you would expect from their own respective series. People act out of character because some people need to act "funny" in order for the series to progress

It had potential, but it was ruined due to poor execution of anything at all. I am certain I could produce something of similar caliber, and I am no comedian by any means.
