Shueisha announced on Sunday that Hell Teacher Nube manga is getting a new anime in 2025. Shueisha also revealed a teaser visual and promotional video.
The manga will also get a new one-shot in the September issue of Shueisha's Saikyō Jump magazine on August 2.
Manga's author Makura's comment about the announcement:
I am thrilled that we are getting a new anime adaptation in this Reiwa (modern) era. With the changing times and advancements in digital animation, the setting has been updated, and the students of Class 5-3 have been given a modern update. Please look forward to a completely new look while retaining all the charm of Nube.
Manga's artist Okano's comment about the announcement:
The anime adaptation is finally happening! BANZAI! I can finally share the news! This project has been in the works for years, and it was tough keeping it a secret. But now, I can shout it out loud! I'm so happy! Yay! I can't wait!
Makura and Okano serialized the original 31-volume manga from 1993 to 1999 in Shueisha's Weekly Shonen Jump magazine. The manga has more than 29 million copies in circulation. The manga was later re-released in 2006 as 20 volumes.
Story
The story follows Meisuke Nueno, aka "Nube," a psychic teacher with a demon hand, as he battles evil spirits and monsters to protect his students in this saga that employs elements of Japanese mythology and folklore to tell a fan-pleasing action story.
Known for its occult and horror elements on school ghost stories and urban legends, Nube captivated readers across generations with his heroic efforts to save his students from supernatural threats.
The original manga inspired a TV anime series in 1996-1997, a video anime series in 1998-1999, and three anime films in 1996 and 1997. The manga also inspired a live-action series adaptation in 2014.
