Top 10 Anime Teachers You Wish You Had

Korosensei (Assassination Classroom)

He teaches his kids even though they are trying to kill him. He cares about their grades and always wants them to do as well as, if not better than, Class A. He cares about their future and even has conversations with them about what they want to do with their lives. This is what all teachers should strive to be like. So many just don't care about their students' futures. They just want them to pass to make themselves look good. Koro-sensei is someone all teachers can learn from.

This teacher knows what it truly means to be a teacher. He's risked his own life multiple times to teach his students valuable lessons and has almost died to save them. He's a teacher above all else and won't hesitate to protect his students. He's supportive, despite knowing they could kill him. A+ teacher for me.

Kakashi Hatake (Naruto)

Kakashi Hatake is a fictional character in the manga and anime series Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto. He serves as the leader and mentor of Team 7, which includes Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno.

I just had to add him again. He takes responsibility on his shoulders, protects his students with his life, and doesn't tolerate bad behavior. Yet, he's dependable and caring toward them. A truly great teacher and ninja.

The BEST teacher one can have! He acts tough, but at the end of the day, he's the one who will carry you home on his back. He treats his students like family and always has everyone's back. Everything he does is in his students' best interests.

Kakashi is amazing, alright. I just don't know if I would want him to teach with his hands moving at that speed!

Franken Stein (Soul Eater)

Dr. Franken Stein (Japanese: フランケン・シュタイン, Furanken Shutain) is a secondary character in the anime and manga series Soul Eater. He is an eccentric but talented doctor and meister, known for being the strongest meister to have ever graduated from Death Weapon Meister Academy. He was also the first weapon... read more

There's a possibility of him dissecting you, but if your life was on the line, you could count on him. He's defended Death City from threats and helps his students grow stronger, even if it means taking risky chances - all in the name of helping them.

Eikichi Onizuka (Great Teacher Onizuka)

Eikichi Onizuka is a fictional character and the main protagonist of the manga and anime series Great Teacher Onizuka, often abbreviated as GTO. He is a former gang member who becomes a high school teacher. Onizuka is known for his unconventional methods and strong desire to help his students.

The original basis for Koro-sensei. He is the ultimate man, puts himself in the shoes of the student every time, and is a former gangster too.

This man used to be in a motorcycle gang... sounds perfect, right? Yet he kind of is. He has the best expectations for his students and cares about their lives. He didn't start out perfect but slowly became the best teacher in the anime.

He's just great. Great Teacher Onizuka.

Shouta Aizawa (My Hero Academia)

I feel like it would be fun because he would just fall asleep in the middle of class and let the students take over. It would also teach us responsibility. Although, it would be scary to be threatened by your own teacher.

He's similar to Kakashi, but Kakashi is still supreme!

He is so strict and determined, yet pretty sweet.

Master Roshi (Dragon Ball)

Master Roshi is a fictional character from the anime series Dragon Ball, created by Akira Toriyama. He is also featured prominently in Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball Super, and related media. Known as the Turtle Hermit, he is one of Goku's earliest martial arts teachers.

This old man was the one who taught Goku long ago. He's also a master of martial arts and is very witty. He's a bit of a pervert though, so if any ladies are interested, watch out.

Karasuma (Assassination Classroom)

He seems like he would care about his students a lot. He would also be a great PE teacher.

This guy is cool and at the same time hot.

Izumi Curtis (Fullmetal Alchemist)

Izumi Curtis is a fictional character from the Fullmetal Alchemist manga series and its adaptations created by Hiromu Arakawa. She is the teacher of the main characters, Edward and Alphonse Elric. Izumi is known for her strict discipline, powerful alchemy skills, and tragic backstory.

She taught the Elric brothers everything. A master alchemist at heart and one of the best martial artists ever. Although she doesn't usually take on students, she accepted the Elric brothers. She became their second mother and grew close to the two. A great, badass teacher.

Other than the fact that he's a big pervert, he is a good teacher.

Hibiki Amawa (I My Me! Strawberry Eggs)

?

Giyu Tomioka (Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba)

He should be much higher than the bottom of the list.

?

Usami (Monomi) (Danganronpa 2)

Junichirou Kagami (Seitokai Yakuindomo)

First, for anyone who doesn't know, this redhead is a guy. I thought he was a girl originally, but it's true. Anyway, he's into anime, manga, and otaku culture too. He sees his students in a different light that most people wouldn't notice, yet he's not distant in any way. Just a truly great teacher.

Irina Jelavic (Assassination Classroom)

I think it would be fun to have Irina as a teacher. Sure, she has a dirty mouth, but it would be funny to see her get mad.

She inspires her students to be happy with what they have.

Iruka Umino (Naruto)

Iruka Umino is one of the main supporting characters in the Naruto series. He is a chūnin-level shinobi of Konohagakure who serves primarily as an instructor at the Academy. Iruka was the first person to acknowledge Naruto Uzumaki and played a key role in his early development.

Nino (Arakawa Under the Bridge)

Nino teaches her boyfriend Kou how to enjoy life to the fullest. Don't rush through life. Learn to appreciate the little things. She has a rather strange outlook on the world, but you can understand why she feels this way. She teaches you lessons from under the bridge.

A very encouraging sensei who cares about his students' well-being.

He's just amazing. Such a motivator.

Ginpachi-sensei (Gintama)

Silver Rayleigh (One Piece)

He became Luffy's mentor during the two-year time skip. He's pretty casual and fun-loving despite his appearance. He's usually the type who thinks before attacking, which is a very promising skill. His bond with the Straw Hat Pirates was both endearing and heartwarming.

Kamogawa Genji (Hajime no Ippo)

He trains both Ippo and Takamura in boxing and founded the Kamogawa Boxing Gym. He's stoic and rarely shows any emotion to anyone. He doesn't tolerate slacking and will get mad if his students underachieve. Still, he's a great teacher.

Mizuho Kazami (Please Teacher)

Glenn Radars (Black Lagoon)

Well, his laziness would give us a lot of time to spare, which we could use to sleep or play on our smartphones.

He acts extremely stupid, and his lessons look anything but boring.

Asuma Sarutobi (Naruto)

Asuma Sarutobi is a fictional character in the anime and manga franchise Naruto, created by Masashi Kishimoto. He is a jonin of Konohagakure and the leader of Team 10. Asuma is also the son of the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Don't let the looks deceive you. She is actually a pro hunter and an experienced teacher (57 years old, respectively).

Takasaki Munabu (Nichijou)

Underrated teacher, underrated anime.
