Cromartie High School
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.

1. I Used to be a Bad Boy Bragging Contest
It’s Takashi Kamiyama’s first day at Cromartie High. The problem is that it’s a school for delinquents and Kamiyama doesn’t exactly fit in, Luckily, he has Shinjiro Hayashida to show him around. They go through the school meeting each of its wacky and hilarious students, including the three weirdest. When they come to the weirdest of three weirdest, Mechazawa, they instantly recognize that he’s a robot. But, no one else says anything.

2. Blade Runners High
Kamiyama and Hayashida are the only two who seem to realize that Mechazawa is actually a robot. They spy on him to see if anyone else notices that he’s a robot. After two close calls, the boys give up. After school they spot Mechazawa getting beat up by some bullies from a rival school. Kamiyama and Hayashida spy on him some more, but nobody seems to notice, not even when they stab Mechazawa with a knife that simply breaks on his hard body.

3. Cromartie High (Co-Ed)
Shinjiro Hayashida hears Shinichi Mechazawa humming a song in the bathroom. Later that day, he starts humming the same tune, but can’t remember the name or artist. He asks Kamiyama, but he can’t remember it either. Pretty soon, the whole school is humming the song thinking of what its called. At the end of the day, nobody figured it out. As Kamiyama heads out, he hears Mechazawa humming the song! He asks him about it, but accidentally says that he knows it. Now, he can’t ask the only person who knows the song’s name, or else he’ll look like a “tool”.
