      Description
      A girl shouts “p****” while running through the train station. In that instant, I fall flat on my face.

      After the enactment of the Public Morality and Wholesome Upbringing Law sixteen years ago, all sexual words have been lost in Japan. Okuma Tanukichi has entered one of the few schools with excellent public morals where his beloved upperclassman Anna serves as student council president. However, an obscene terrorist going by the name Blue Snowfield blackmails him into joining SOX, an obscene terrorist organization! Is this a prison or is it a harem?

        I loved the anime adaption, and I really want to see where things go beyond the end of the anime. I just love how unapologetically crude it can be with it's humor. SOX 4 Life

          I really liked the anime adaptation of this title and would love to see a translation of the light novels it was based on. 👍

              I feel like this should be licensed just for how relevant it is and how much more relevent it will become.

                Was there ever a more depressing reason for a license.

                  It would be absolutely amazing to see this licensed. For such a popular anime, it's surprising the Light Novel hasn't been published in English already.

                    Watched the anime, it was okay.
                    Don't really care about this story beyond that.

                      I've watched the anime and read the manga, but neither really get to a conclusion for the series. As far as I can tell, the anime only covers the first two volumes of the light novel and the manga only covers the first four.

                      It'd be great to be able to read the complete story.

                        I wonder if this too obscene for JNC but hopefully not. Friend just brought this up and I'd like to see this reach English readers at some point

                            @HarunaChieP I would imagine the publisher, Shogakukan/Gagaga, is the bigger obstacle than content. For the longest time Yen Press' releases from this publisher were print only, and now that ebooks are finally being allowed, they are still strictly region restricted to only English-speaking countries. Since the only region restriction J-Novel would be okay with is restricted sales in Japan, that would be unacceptable from JNC's standpoint since they always try to get worldwide English rights.

                              considering the recent kerfuffle with kindle censorship, I'd love to see this licensed if for no other reason, for the irony

                              I read banned books

                                This was a great series and definitely be great to get a complete translation.

                                  I really wanna see how the story would finish. The new characters look cool and the story seems to get crazy after the anime.

                                    I thought the show was ok, I didn't like what they did with the character Ana, I hope the books are better and would the opportunity to read them.

                                    Having Fun?
