YOU! YES, YOU! STAND STILL LADDIE! So you're attending the Sucky School. There's the bus driver who puts the kids in danger by deciding to recreate his favourite scenes from Speed on the highway, the dinner lady who attacks you with their disgusting meal, the school bully who spends his breaks stuffing you into lockers and trying to flush you down the toilet, and the popular kids are looking for ones that are also considered popular and would exclude you because they hate you. And then there's these teachers... The teacher who bullies you for their own amusement (and your humiliation). The one who openly mocks you in front of the rest of the class. The one who won't let you go to the bathroom, no matter how desperate you are. The one who tells you they want you to fail because they hate you and you don't deserve to move up, then gives you F-- grades. If you're not paying enough attention in class, beware of flying objects. If they teach gym you'll likely end up getting dodgeballs in the face every day (if you're lucky). In short, they are the education system's answer to the Drill Sergeant Nasty—or worse. And even when they're not picking on you themselves, they are often perfectly happy to look the other way when the Barbaric Bully is doing so. (They might even occasionally employ the latter as their enforcer.) Sometimes, they're a Child Hater in general. Other times it's just one particular child who becomes the target of their rancor. Either way, they are as cruel as they can possibly be within the confines of their job. Worse, because they're a teacher, anyone seeking justice for their sadistic behavior is likely to be completely ignored. They also tend to be the ones who are the most suspicious of the Ordinary High-School Student with a Secret Identity, and determined to uncover the Masquerade. Worse, maybe they have uncovered it, and now the student has to keep them from exposing them on top of everything else. Principals, guidance counselors, and coaches are no exceptions to this trope. Sadly, many students will escape these at graduation only to subsequently run into their classier but similarly cruel college equivalent, Dean Bitterman. All too often this is a case of Truth in Television. Sometimes this trope will be inspired by the creator's own personal experiences, but many examples will portray levels of abuse that would get any actual teacher fired and/or arrested on the spot. Values Dissonance applies, as these techniques are often still considered appropriate in some countries, and even stateside these teachers will have defenders among more conservative parents and administrators. See Stern Teacher for their more reasonable counterpart. May overlap with Evil Teacher, or Sinister Minister in a parochial school. Pick on Someone Your Own Size comes in any time one of these sees a child or teenager as their personal enemy. Commonly found in a Boarding School of Horrors. Their favorite target is the Teacher's Unfavorite Student. Contrast with Apathetic Teacher, Hippie Teacher, Cool Teacher, Misplaced Kindergarten Teacher, and Badass Teacher. May become the Tormented Teacher. |

In Red String, Arata routinely torments his students; he even orchestrates getting the main character expelled when she dares to stand up to him in class for ridiculing a friend. It's to the point that another main character (known for being headstrong and prone to foolhardy heroism) has been asked by the student body to do something about him. | |

Kanon: Kuze, president of the student council, is introduced to ridicule Yuichi at the school ball, before issuing Mai a harsh warning about the trouble she had been causing for the school. He is all too eager to expel her when a demon attacks, even though she didn't actually destroy anything herself, is not any nicer to those debating things with him, and even threatens Mai's friend Sayuri if anything ever happens again after Yuichi and Kitagawa just barely talk him out of following through. | |

During the 90s, All Japan Pro Wrestling seniors and trainers were accused of physically and sexually assaulting the students of its dojo. It was apparently usual for them to order apprentices to do push ups on the showers' floor while the older wrestlers urinated on them, and an even uglier rumor has an apprentice of Satoshi Kojima choosing to quit wrestling altogether due to Kojima's advances on him. | |

The Unforgiving Flowers Blossom in the Dead of Night: In the first manga story, Yoshihito Kanamori, the teacher who initially defended protagonist Marie Moriya against her cruel classmates, has taken to sexually molesting her during their "supplementary lessons" to relieve the stress of the job. Between his abuse and the abuse that she still has to deal with from her classmates, it's little wonder that poor Marie wants to become a youkai. | |

Manga Soprano: Takeuchi forces his student Kanade to get in the swimming pool despite her problems with periods. He even goes as far as to push her into the pool. Ruru Kawai favored the boys over the girls in her class. She doles out harsher punishments on the girls, especially Haru. She failed Haru just out of pettiness, claiming that she has messy handwriting even though it was a math test. Coach Miyu liked to flaunt her attractive body in swimming class instead of doing her job; she acted sweet around the boys and picked on the girls' appearances whenever they complained about her problematic behavior. Moreover, when Coach Kairi came over, she tried to seduce him and even compared Ram to herself, but he reprimanded her for her behavior. |

Mr. Bleak in Living The Dream will lock his students in the classroom and hit them if they ever break his Four rules. No talking, no eating (he will offer food and hit them if they accept), no leaving your seat, and to not touch his ruler (unless he is hitting them). On top of that, punishing his students gives him a sort of sexual glee. | |

Subverted in Osamu Tezuka's Black Jack. A sadistic Maths teacher terrorizes his "weakest" student to the point of traumatizing him but is actually a good person at heart who only wants to toughen the kiddo up. The boy almost dies in a street accident that he got in because he was too distraught by his phobia of the teacher to look before crossing the streets, and the man feels so guilty when he finds out that he attempts to kill himself and give the money of his health insurance to the kid's mother so Dr. Black Jack can operate on the boy. In the end, Black Jack saves both of them. | |

Bonanza: The 1972 episode "First Love" focused on the school's new headmaster Dan Edwards, who belittles and humiliates the students... except for star pupil Jamie Hunter Cartwright, who somehow meets the teacher's demands. But the teacher-student relationship is doomed by other means, as Jamie becomes friends with Mr. Edwards' wife, Kelly... who is abused by her husband. In the end, Jamie tells Mr. Edwards that he is aware that he is abusive, and after Edwards slaps Jamie, it isn't long before he is run out of Virginia City. | |

Yagami's investigation reveals that Mikoshiba was a vicious bully who drove one of his classmates to suicide back in high school. Then, as a student teacher, he forced the students in the basketball club to perform needlessly intense exercises and began singling out Mami Koda, a beginner in basketball, for abuse, which resulted in the entire team ganging up on Koda as well. | |

In a surprising move, the titular character from Dominic Deegan is a subversion of the Sadist Teacher trope; he has a reputation as an incredibly difficult teacher, but all of his students love him and are better people because of him, he never humiliates or bullies them in any way, and they all actively try to help him in every way they can. The class is hard because the subject is hard, not because he's a bad teacher. In fact, all of his students considered him their favorite and were devastated when his reputation as a "hard" teacher caused him to get fired. | |

The Horrible Histories franchise gleefully invokes this both on the page and screen (a direct result of creator Terry Deary's deep mistrust of formal education). Highlights from the TV series include the puppet rat host introducing a single pea on a plate as a brain 'from a PE teacher', the Grim Reaper deciding to quit and 'become a school headmaster', and this doozy from Elagabalus in the "Evil Emperors' Song": | |

iCarly: Mr. Howard, the teacher in the episode "iGot Detention". This leads to double the trouble in the episode "iHave My Principals": after Principal Franklin gets fired, Briggs and Howard are made co-principals, and turn the school into a miniature police state. Not only do they act horrible to the kids (Gibby got detention just for being Gibby, and the guy told Freddie to wipe "that look off of his face", despite it being Freddie's neutral face. When Freddie protested by saying that it was his face, the guy said "Well, maybe you should change it, then!"), they also force them to wear uniforms, and apparently have hidden microphones in the hallway. Ms. Ackerman from "iHave a Lovesick Teacher" treats her students harshly after her boyfriend breaks up with her. The iCarly gang tries to get her to loosen up by setting her up with Spencer, but she turns out to be a Yandere who treats him horribly. Ultimately, they manage to get rid of her by tipping the FBI off about how she's been downloading pirated songs onto her PearPod, leading to her arrest. |

Satoru Sayama was an incredibly cruel and harsh trainer both in wrestling and Mixed Martial Arts promotions, to the extent that there are clips of him beating students with a shinai cane, and it's popularly stated his apprentices get hit harder in the dojo than in the ring. In fact, Karl Gotch supposedly remarked that Sayama was a great trainer yet an equally great gym bully. | |

For a little while, Adventures in Odyssey had "Dr. Hawthorne", who is always convinced that local Nice Guy kid Trent Dewhite is up to no good. Said teacher crosses into this trope in the episode "A Glass Darkly", where he repeatedly accuses Trent for all sorts of random crimes that Trent had nothing to even do with, refused to let Trent explain himself if he didn't just flat out ignore him, and wouldn't let Trent off the hook even though Trent had a very important meeting to attend. | |

Teacher in The Bash Street Kids is usually just stuck with an uncontrollable class (except for the pet). Well, one annual had him bring the kids (along with goody-two-shoes Walter, and Dennis the Menace and Minnie the Minx) on a field trip. Nice, right? Except it was a trip into space. After which, obviously with his approval, Walter and Cuthbert LAUNCH ALL THE TROUBLEMAKING KIDS INTO SPACE. Where they realized that they would fly through space forever. Sure, everything works out in the end, and the kids were a bunch of jerkasses, but he was essentially starving a bunch of kids to death. Beware the Nice Ones! | |

The Secret Life of Us has a substitute teacher nicknamed Mr. Mad Dog, who appears in a flashback to Will's childhood. Will tells his friends a story about the teacher walking into a rowdy class, forcing everyone to admit to how they'd been misbehaving and hitting each on the hand with a ruler in turn. When it was Will's turn, he told him, quite honestly, that he'd done nothing but sit there trying to ignore everyone else. Mad Dog ignored him, repeated the question, and continued hitting Will, who refused to change his story. It went on long enough for another teacher to hear them from the hallway and intervene, and Mad Dog was fired. | |

Wonder Woman Vol 1: Surprisingly averted with the villain Byrna Brilyant. Despite being an unrepentant supervillain who goes on to be a founding member of Villainy Inc. she's never shown acting maliciously to her students and seems to have been a good teacher before her criminal activity was discovered and got her fired. | |

Matilda has Ms. Trunchbull, the violent, dictator-like principal of the school that Matilda attends. Apart from having broken the arm of her stepniece, she enjoys torturing children, be it defenestrating them from the third floor, hammer throwing them by their pigtails, putting them in a non-lethal iron maiden called the "Chokey", and even force-feeding them cakes laced with body fluids. She in fact loves it so much that she has taken the punishments further, just to be sure that the parents would never believe their child if one spilled the beans. | |

Akira Takaoka in Assassination Classroom initially sets himself as a self-titled Team Dad, but in reality he's a Drill Sergeant Nasty to a class of ninth graders. Even the principal (who has his own issues) decides Takaoka's not worth keeping around with his attitude and gives him his pink slip after a day. | |

Calvin and Hobbes: Miss Wormwood is an interesting take on this trope. Calvin (being the type of kid that he is) believes his behavior is justified, even appropriate, so when she doles out completely reasonable punishments, it appears to him that she is a sadist. In reality, it's a combination of her being both the worst possible teacher for a student like Calvin, and Calvin being a Sadist Student. | |

Mr Bronson of Grange Hill was mostly a stern man but his treatment to one student in particular was definitely sadistic. The kid, Danny Kendall, was about to leave school and was even given an offer to his ideal job... before Bronson found out, called up the business and said some truly awful things about him. The two had been having this arc where Bronson was trying to 'Bring [Kendall] into line' which ended when Danny lost the job offer, they had a fight in Bronson's office, and Danny stole Mr Bronson's car and used it in his carbon monoxide suicide, which in turn led to Bronson being forced to prematurely end his own career. The fact that Bronson was Hitler shows how bad he was. | |

The first 7 volumes of the original Yu-Gi-Oh! have: a Vamp who dates men and breaks their hearts for the hell of it, a sadistic guidance counselor who regularly mocks the lower-scoring students and tried to stomp on Anzu/Téa's electronic keychain, and a gym teacher who bullies Bakura because of his hairstyle. All three found themselves on the receiving end of karma in the end, though (the Vamp's makeup peels off to reveal how ugly she really was to the whole class; the counselor was revealed to be bald and wearing a toupee; the gym teacher got turned into an RPG figurine by Dark Bakura). And The Vamp, Chono, likes ordering desk inspections so that she can catch students with contraband and have them expelled. She does this with the puzzle love letter Honda made for Miho, but Dark Yugi gives her the Shadow Game as soon as she completes the puzzle to determine whether Yugi, Jounouchi or Honda had given it to Miho, as all three claimed responsibility. Though the gym teacher got turned back once Dark Yugi beat Dark Bakura, and goes back to being his old Jerkass self. |

Usually subverted and/or averted in the Whateley Universe, even though the stories center around the Super Hero School Whateley Academy and some of the teachers are retired supervillains. Erik Mahren, the ex-Marine range master on Range 4 (the heavy weapons range) is notorious for being absolutely ruthless when it comes to weapons safety, but the net result of that is that no students are hurt or killed on the ranges in his entire tenure as rangemaster. The Reverend Darren England has gone after a couple students when he senses their connection to planet-threatening evil... but goes way over the line when he hires Syndicate hitmen to help some of his minions try to assassinate one such student (who happens to be one of the good guys). The closest thing to the "sadist teacher" archetype seen at Whateley so far would actually be Amelia Hartford, though she ends up being more of a highly placed Obstructive Bureaucrat or Dean Bitterman due to not actually having a teaching position (that we've seen thus far). |

ETU - Animated Stories: One example is Mr. Anderson who gives the protagonist more assignments than she can handle, cut her grades for silly reasons, and got her expelled. Another example is Joanne's teacher, Miss Digbly. She often antagonizes Joanne, because she seemed to be getting good grades despite the fact that she is coasting by, and locked her up for an entire weekend. Miss Ramsey humiliated Amelia during a PTA meeting by saying that she is too dumb to be an scientist when she expresses her dream to be one. Principal Green was a mean principal that puts down her students for petty reasons. She particularly picked on Ali and forced him to date her daughter when he solved a math equation with the promise of getting him into an Ivy League college. |

In Discworld fanfiction set at the Assassins' Guild School, the Teacher-Assassins develop a canonical theme where pupils who have been slack, or lazy, or over-confident (or who have simply annoyed the teacher) are sent out on humiliating tasks or painful assignments which are bound to fail. This is partly to instruct, educate and correct the pupil, and partly so the teaching staff can compare notes and have a jolly good laugh in the staffroom later. Assignments given by teachers have included Extra Elephants at the city zoo ("Wear old clothes. A shovel and a wheelbarrow will be provided."); being sent to the University to research supernatural entities, whose theoretical inhumation can win prizes (the unfortunate student involved ended up looking at the wrong entities, and became catatonic with terror); or merely being sent to deliver a message to Sam Vimes. A partial list of Sadist Teacher assignments might read: Miss Alice Band: fics such as fresh Pair of Eyes develop her canonical tendency to send pupils on the dreaded Vimes Run; Doctor Davinia Bellamy (Botany): pupils offending Davinia are assigned chores such as pruning the Pyramid Strangler Vines, vegetation that fights back; Doctor Smith-Rhodes (Zoology and Natural History): Extra Elephants, as detailed above; or cleaning out the habitats of other lively and territorial animal species; or simply tending the needs of Acerian Skunks, who are friendly creatures who show appreciation to the kind human by spraying them. Miss Gillian Lansbury (Art): Grinding pigments to make your own bespoke paints. note Even well into the last century, some of the most vivid and long-lasting colours could only be obtained by processing things like arsenic, lead, cobalt, mercury salts, cyanic compounds, et c. And this is Art for Assassins. There are no non-toxic paints in Miss Lansbury's paintbox. Miss Joan Sanderson-Reeves (Domestic Science) Cleaning the ovens. note Dirty hard work at the best of times. But ovens last used to bake Lord Downey's special almond fancies and peppermint sweetmeats... Miss Joyce Tanner (Arts and Crafts) - will send an errant pupil out on Work Experience at the abbatoir or in the tanning yards, so they gain an appreciation of leatherworking at all stages from living beast to completed belt and scabbard. |

My Child Lebensborn, being about raising a child that is ostracized by an entire town, has its fair share of those: Miss Hansen is at the very least singling the child out. The child is introduced to the notion of being a German bastard via her telling the entire rest of the class about it. Before that, the Player Character sends the school a letter in response to other students damaging the child's books or backpack while bullying them, only to find out that Miss Hansen read the letter in front of the class and called the child a tattletale. If the player decides to not send the letter out with the child to avoid this, Miss Hansen will instead make them demonstrate the Nazi salute during an entire lecture about war. Yes, the child is part German, in case you're wondering. Mr. Solheim is quickly dreaded by the entire class because of his extremely strict attitude and such a firm believer in the idea that Germans are mentally deficient at a genetical level that he refuses to believe that the child actually is a good student. He's also the person who eventually sexually assaults the child. |

Kids in America: The main plot of the film involves a group of high school students' goal to prevent their principal, Donna Weller, from becoming State Superintendent. Since she uses authoritarian methods to suppress the students’ right to free expression and firing a teacher for backing them up, the entire student body teams up to prevent students in other schools from meeting the same fate by telling the voters directly and getting the media involved. | |

Initially, this jealousy leads Saskia to undermine Tara's confidence and bully her both in and outside of class. Later, in a private pas de deux class, she forces Tara into a dangerous stretch that results in a broken vertebra, leaving Tara courting paraplegia with every step. Fortunately Ben was there too... | |

The Suite Life of Zack & Cody: Sister Dominique. Despite being a nun, she shows blatant favoritism towards London, always punishing Maddie for things that London does. One episode has her giving Maddie detention for "tempting" London when she accidentally violated a copyright while writing a kid's book. London was the one who decided to blow the entire thing out of proportion and have her book published. Another episode (one where Maddie is Put on a Bus) has her giving Maddie a pamphlet that was at least 30 years old to get her to come over to a camp. Said camp is a horrible place (they are across the street from a slaughterhouse; they once had leech cobbler as a meal). | |

Persona 4 has Kinshiro Morooka, a.k.a "King Moron", a brutally conservative Jerkass who is convinced that all teenagers are horny troublemakers and that the main character is nothing but trouble from the city. He treats his students rudely (putting the main character on his "Shit List" within minutes of meeting him if the protagonist talks back to him in response to being told that he's a loser), and has a tendency to get drunk on school field trips. Still, his accusations of the Main Character being a horny bastard may actually have some truth behind it. That said, conversations with some students in the school reveal that he's dragged several girls into his office for "private talks"... in which he advises them on their career paths and urges them to follow their dreams. Morooka might be one of the subtler mean nice guys out there, since you'll never, ever find this out without talking to everybody. It's likely that he genuinely cares for his students but really doesn't know how to properly show it. Even the main cast, who all hate him, admit that he really didn't deserve to die when Mitsuo murders him. And his replacement, Ms. Kashiwagi, is if anything an even worse Jerkass than him! | |

Persona 5 has gym teacher and Starter Villain Suguru Kamoshida, who uses his status as a former Olympic athlete to sexually prey upon the female students (to the point where one of his victims tries to kill herself) and physically abuse the male students (to the point of breaking former track star Ryuji Sakamoto's legs). His Palace shows that he truly thinks of himself as "king" of the school and that it gives him every right to treat his "subjects" however he wants. No wonder the heroes decide that Heel–Face Brainwashing him is the only option since the school's been actively covering up his crimes. | |

These allegations have followed WWE's farm leagues for years. Specifically, Jacqueline was accused of working trainees at Ohio Valley Wrestling to the point of injury while Ivory was said to be verbally demeaning and abusive. Bob Holly gained infamy for beating Tough Enough 3 winner Matt Cappotelli to a bloody pulp in training and later giving him a concussion (the internal bleeding was said to be accidental). Rip Rogers was known for beating wrestlers who messed up on OVW shows with a kendo stick afterwards (and he was a favorite of the students). Meanwhile, Deep South Wrestling trainer Bill DeMott was accused of physically abusing students and Kevin Matthews produced a picture on Twitter of DeMott over seeing a naked wrestler giving a stink face to a trainee. DeMott defended his actions by saying he was often acting on the orders of John Laurinaitis (yet it was Jim Cornette who was fired for slapping a trainee who got a fan hurt when Laurinaitis lectured him on liability issues of publicly traded companies). | |

Soul Eater: Franken Stein will beat up students for the purposes of training, throw scalpels at them, and speculate on experimenting upon one girl after pointing out his previous test subject was her father, and also his former Weapon. His sadistic tendencies are usually played for laughs, but in serious moments including his introduction, are genuinely creepy. And it's not too difficult to imagine him making good on any of his "dissection" threats. With that description, it's worth pointing out that Stein is a decent guy, who seems to genuinely care about his students. Well, okay, a guy who makes an effort to be decent because his less-than-decent compulsions scare even him. | |

In Zbeng!, one of the main characters, is this trope taken to the absurd: a green dress-wearing monster named Anuga Zaafani. In her own personal book, it is even showed how she drove to extremes Peter Parker (drove him up the wall), Clark Kent (green dress... guess what material), Garfield the Cat (decided to take a vacation in Thailand), and her day schedule consists of waking up, falling asleep, and eleven cases of shouting in between. In the end, where everybody is supposed to have their graves shown — she is alive and well among everyone else's graves. Naturally, she'll bury them all. | |

His methods include beating his students with his bare hands (he's a 5th dan karateka) or with a shinai and making them swim in a cold outdoor pool (with clothes on) in April. It's likely that he influenced Eikichi on what not to do when he became a teacher himself in Great Teacher Onizuka. And then, just when it seems like he can't get any worse, we find out he's a lolicon. | |

Revenge Films: "My mean teacher forced me to reveal my bald head due to leukemia in the classroom": Karen's new teacher bullied her for having leukemia and even once forced her to take off her hat, which was covering her bald head due to her medication. The dean is no better and even joined in on the bullying. Eventually, her friends had enough of them and reported both of them to the principal. They were subsequently fired and had their teaching licenses revoked. "Someone stole my daughter's clothes at a PTA meeting…": Ali's cram school teacher stole her Hello Kitty blouse to give to her own daughter. When she told her mother (the OP) about it, the OP called her out and called the school to investigate her. Turns out the teacher had a reputation for stealing things from her students, which got her fired from her last job; she only managed to work because she applied under her maiden name despite being married. My teacher disapproved of my essay about an imaginary friend and ripped it to piece: Miss Natalie dismissed Sarah's essay about her imaginary friend simply because he isn't real and even went as far as to tear it apart. When Sarah put her essay back together and read it in a competition, she tried to attack her, but was caught. Miss Natalie was investigated and she was suspended, but she never returned to school. Years later, Sarah met her again as a janitor, and she apologized to her. |

In one Ghost Hunt arc, Hideaki Matsuyama was so obsessed with his students applying themselves academically, he would destroy his student's personal belongings for not being related to classwork. He actually drove one student to suicide - but not before the student created a ritual curse intended to kill his tormentor and tricked half the student body into continuing the ritual. | |

Michelle McCool was briefly a sexy teacher and a heel, who brought a wooden cane to the ring and fought dirty in matches. Like Matt Striker above, she was previously a middle school science teacher. The gimmick didn't last too long and she was mortified by it, terrified of her former co-workers seeing it in case she ever wanted to get the job back. | |

Harry Potter: The cruelty of Alan Rickman's Snape may be a little toned down from the books but he's still an unrelenting bully towards students that aren't in his house and by Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is Nevile's worst fear. Imelda Staunton's performance as Dolores Umbridge in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is properly horrifying. She uses blood quills, which cause whatever is being written with them to be carved into the hand of the writer, in her detentions, makes up increasingly strict and petty rules, is unabashed about her prejudices, and nearly uses an unforgivable curse on Harry and Hermione. The Carrows may not get much screen time in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows but the fact that they are sadists who are torturing students in detention and acting as Voldemort's enforcers at Hogwarts is still clearly communicated. |

Professor Calahan from Legally Blonde The Musical is unafraid to kick Elle out of class on the first day. Justified in that she didn't do the reading, but still. And he treats his TA like crap, and he teaches students that ethics shouldn't play into law. He gets better... until we find out he hits on interns... In the movie, the teacher who kicked Elle out was Professor Stromwell, who Elle initially saw as a Sadist Teacher (Emmett also said "she can really kick you in the balls"). Stromwell turns out to be a tough-but-fair Reasonable Authority Figure, though, and later gives Elle an inspirational talk about not giving up when Elle is seriously considering going home. |

During his time, he openly insults students who don't know things and brings up personal tragedies in front of the class (Such as the death of Elena's parents), keeps files on students he doesn't like such as Jeremy, proves he doesn't know basic facts such as the end of The Korean War, bullies students and tells Stefan he hopes to see him hurt while playing football. | |

Mr. Gilbert from The Inbetweeners goes between this and Apathetic Teacher. For the most part, he's clearly lost any and all enthusiasm he may have once had for his job and, barring incredibly cutting put-downs, generally if the students keep their heads down and behave themselves sufficiently to avoid causing too much trouble or bringing the school into disrepute he leaves them alone. However, if they manage to sufficiently get on his bad side, he tends to target them with Disproportionate Retribution and take active, malicious pleasure in any misfortunes they may encounter. And unfortunately for our protagonist Will, he managed to piss off Mr. Gilbert with quite literally the very first thing he said to him: | |

The school staff from Baka and Test: Summon the Beasts seems to be universally mean and strict if not just lazy. They fail Himeji on her placement exam despite the fact that she was having a medical emergency. They blatantly insult the students of Class F, calling them idiots to their faces. No one ever seems to break it up whenever Minami beats the ever-loving crap out of Akihisa. How these people became educators is anyone's guess. Surprisingly, Mr. Nishimura (who is definitely one of these when he takes the students away for remedial lessons) is a Reasonable Authority Figure as well. | |

Terence Rattigan's The Browning Version deconstructs this trope. The protagonist, Andrew Crocker-Harris, appears to be a stuffy, hateful bore who enjoys humiliating his students. Students despise him as the "Himmler of the lower fifth" and even his fellow teachers don't much care for him. But Crocker-Harris reveals his Hidden Depths as a brilliant but frustrated academic with a fractious private life, who's lost sight of why he went into teaching in the first place. | |

In one week-long series, Paige's biology teacher Mr. Ting assigned 60 chapters of reading for a test the next day, thinking it would "alleviate the tension" of the torrential rainstorms they were having. This only got worse for Paige, even though you can't blame the rest on Ting; the storm caused a blackout that made the assignment an even greater nightmare. And the worst part of it? While she managed to complete the reading assignment, Ting had no access to his computer due to the blackout, and wasn't able to hold the test. (Meaning she had done it for nothing. While it technically wasn't his fault either, he gave the assignment in the first place...) | |

Both the original Suspiria and its 2018 remake revolve around a prestigious dance academy (ballet for the former, interpretive for the latter), where it's revealed that all the teachers are part of a coven of witches. Miss Tanner in particular seems to be especially stern, forcing Suzy to perform a dance when she's clearly ill (and the result is that she faints there in class). Considering the reason Suzy is sick in the first place is that the witches put a spell on her, this seems like a Kick the Dog moment. | |

Kaidan's Biotics instructor in the first Mass Effect. A Drill Sergeant Nasty turian who was on active duty during the First Contact War, he was extremely racist towards humans for humiliating the turians, enjoyed introducing himself to the young humans he was begrudgingly forced to teach as "The man who killed your parents" and his training involved forced overclocking of biotics with flawed first generation implants (which led to unpleasant effects like migraines, nosebleeds, and seizures), enacted extremely harsh punishments if they didn't (Kaidan mentions him breaking a teenage girl's arm for trying to drink water without using biotics) and was generally a horrible person. No tears were shed when Kaiden accidentally severed his spinal column and killed him during a fit of Power Incontinence that his abusive teaching caused, and the incident was even glazed over entirely once the humans in the council learned about his cruelty. | |

Overseer Harkun, from the Sith Inquisitor storyline in Star Wars: The Old Republic, certainly qualifies. He despises the Inquisitor for being a former slave (and potentially an alien) and plays favorites with Ffon, a pureblood Sith acolyte. As a result, he gives Ffon easy tasks for his trials, while sending the Inquisitor to ancient tombs crawling with enemies, hoping they’ll die before they return. In the end, Lord Zash kills Ffon and takes the Inquisitor as her apprentice, so it definitely backfired on him. | |

Drake & Josh: Mrs. Hayfer is considered an overall nice teacher by Josh, but she often nitpicks at Drake for his poor performance, even going as far as to continuously say she hates him out loud. The most obvious example of how much she hates him would be in one episode where she asked him what language The Odyssey was in. Drake answers Greek. She says "Wrong," then asks another student who gives the exact same answer, which is right. She even said he was wrong on a rhetorical question! However, Drake is frequently a complete Jerkass. Mr. Roland, a chemistry teacher, is far more sadistic as he doesn't allow Josh to take the exam due to his tardiness, tells him that he will have a make-up test that next Saturday at 6 a.m., and marks him down one grade. Josh was late because of Drake and when Drake moves out, Mr. Roland treats him much better at the make-up exam and decides to revoke the grade punishment and Josh gets better. Drake living in the same house as Josh must have been why Josh was having bad days. On one occasion, Josh himself. When he tries to be a student teacher for Megan's class, the first homework assignment he gives? A science one with college-level textbooks that even the class's parents couldn't figure out. The next day, when he finds out none of them could do it, he punishes them. |

Ned's Declassified School Survival Guide: Played for Laughs with Mr. Sweeney. In one episode, Ned asks Mr. Sweeney to explain how a science fair diorama should look. In response, Mr. Sweeney reaches behind his desk, takes out an elaborately detailed diorama explaining why Ned is likely to get an "F" on his science fair project — and shows it to the whole class. However, he does soften up over time, with the eventual result being that Sweeney was only sadistic from Ned's point-of-view and Ned usually deserved the grades Sweeney gave him. Sweeney also subverts this trope in the Grand Finale, where he admits to Ned (who is hanging upside-down in a tree) that Ned was his favorite student and enjoyed his antics. And leaves him hanging in the tree. |

Madam Soot Beng from Titan Academy is a hyper strict, overbearing and sadistic teacher that gives out detention very easily, gives way too much homework and is not afraid to give Corporal Punishment to misbehaving students. Considering she was put in charge in the so-called 'worst class in the Academy', it's almost a necessity. By the end of it, it turns out she really cared for the students and her sadism was her means to protect the students from the harshness of the Singaporean education system, taking the blame and getting herself fired when the students were in danger of being expelled. | |

Welcome to Demon School! Iruma-kun has Kalego Naberius, the homeroom teacher for protagonist Iruma's class, who provides an interesting mix of Sadist Teacher, Stern Teacher, and Reasonable Authority Figure. He makes it very blatant that he takes every available opportunity to make life miserable for his class, but in regards to his actual teaching he's very strict but fair, never letting his biases and sadistic desires get in the way of having the students genuinely keep improving as both students and people, even if it means degrading himself in order to ensure he follows his own standards, utterly refusing any possibility of acting like a hypocrite. | |

Several examples in Gokusen, all of which are fairly realistic and Played for Drama; you've got a teacher that purposefully isolated a student he didn't like for no reason, a teacher that refused to give one student an education because the student was delinquent-ish... and then you have a teacher who is literally a sadist with a BDSM fetish and has a very disturbing obsession with one of the high school-aged protagonists... | |

Sue Sylvester from Glee. From her brutal yet efficient ways of training the 'Cheerios' cheerleading squad to the way she throws things around and almost throws a kid out of a corridor when she's angry in one episode, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone worse than her (Roald Dahl notwithstanding). Even then, admittedly, it's only done mainly for comedy purposes... Surprisingly enough she's a reasonable principal (with the exceptions of trying to disband football and fire Will. That she relents when she sees him as a very competent teacher). She even responds to the bullying in the school better than Figgins ever did and does seem genuinely upset that she couldn't protect Kurt. She has her reasons for this - bullying someone for being different seems make her really mad. Although she ruthlessly terrorizes the school, she is very much an equal-opportunity bully, and the kids know it. | |

In Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes story arc, rejected Legion applicant Eyeful Ethel later joined the Justice League of Earth as a teacher at their satellite headquarters, "reeducating" Earth children about Superman's supposed human origins. While Ethel does not physically abuse any of her students, she takes a great amount of pleasure knowing that they will believe everything she tells them simply because she's their teacher, including lies about how the Martian Manhunter was an alien invader and that the Legion of Super-Heroes were alien terrorists. While not the most violent or powerful, Ethel's by far the worst member of the League due to the sadistic pleasure she takes in exploiting impressionable young children. | |

Persona: Persona 2 has Principal Hanya. He's a massive jackass who abuses his authority in very creative ways in order to ensure his power, and uses the city's powers to brainwash his students into believing he's the best. Except magic has a price, and he should have read the price tag... Persona 4 has Kinshiro Morooka, a.k.a "King Moron", a brutally conservative Jerkass who is convinced that all teenagers are horny troublemakers and that the main character is nothing but trouble from the city. He treats his students rudely (putting the main character on his "Shit List" within minutes of meeting him if the protagonist talks back to him in response to being told that he's a loser), and has a tendency to get drunk on school field trips. Still, his accusations of the Main Character being a horny bastard may actually have some truth behind it. That said, conversations with some students in the school reveal that he's dragged several girls into his office for "private talks"... in which he advises them on their career paths and urges them to follow their dreams. Morooka might be one of the subtler mean nice guys out there, since you'll never, ever find this out without talking to everybody. It's likely that he genuinely cares for his students but really doesn't know how to properly show it. Even the main cast, who all hate him, admit that he really didn't deserve to die when Mitsuo murders him. And his replacement, Ms. Kashiwagi, is if anything an even worse Jerkass than him! Persona 5 has gym teacher and Starter Villain Suguru Kamoshida, who uses his status as a former Olympic athlete to sexually prey upon the female students (to the point where one of his victims tries to kill herself) and physically abuse the male students (to the point of breaking former track star Ryuji Sakamoto's legs). His Palace shows that he truly thinks of himself as "king" of the school and that it gives him every right to treat his "subjects" however he wants. No wonder the heroes decide that Heel–Face Brainwashing him is the only option since the school's been actively covering up his crimes. |

The historical reality show That'll Teach 'Em is about 30 modern teenagers who attend a simulated 50s or 60s boarding school. By today's standards, most teachers at these schools would probably qualify, as they insult their pupil's intelligence, yell at them for the slightest infraction and deal out nasty punishments. However, this practice was commonplace in the 50s and 60s and actually seen as a helpful way to shape teenagers into well adjusted members of society. | |

Sequential Art: Kat takes a photography gig to take elementary school yearbook photos, only to discover to her horror that the teacher who meticulously insulted and humiliated her in fifth grade was the principal of the school. It should be noted that in her class, Kat would be repeatedly reprimanded for not giving precise details to correct answers while her school rival Brittany would earn nothing but praise, implying that the teacher knew Brittany was a sociopath and loved her for it. Their adversarial relationship was promptly renewed, with Kat trying to stay professional while the principal repeatedly pulled up old grudges for the sake of it, until Kat finally confronts the teacher, calls her out about her treatment, and declares that she'll put up with it no longer. Somehow, this manages to give the principal a heart attack. Instead of grieving, the schoolchildren joyously sing "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" because she'd been doing the same to her other students for decades. | |

ATTACK on MIKA: Mr. Hideo harasses Ichi because he couldn't keep up with his curriculum and uses his 'most worthless player' system against him. When this came to light at a PTA meeting, he was fired. Yoko Wada has a stamp point system where she awards well-behaving students and punished the badly behaved ones. However, she misuses it to torment students that she doesn't like and forces them to do extra chores. She humiliated Mika when she gives Ichi her eraser but he broke it and he apologizes by making her apologize in front of the whole class. She continued to do it under duress, even though Ichi took responsibility. However, the students turned the tables on their elitist teacher at the next Parent-Teacher meeting. |

Malcolm in the Middle: Herkabe delights in verbally abusing the smartest students (generally because he himself was considered a brilliant child, and ended up a total disappointment to himself). Of course it's not surprising that an important character is a teacher who's a sadist — how many characters on that show aren't sadists? Reese's teacher Mr. Woodward from before Herkabe showed up. Malcolm figured it out when he proofread an F on one of Reese's papers that for once he didn't deserve, along with the teacher's "Kids like Reese..." speech. |

Sadist Teachers are some of their more frequent victims, ranging from a literal sadist who felt sexual pleasure from humiliating one of her female students, to an extremely strict teacher who kept a notebook full of details about the students' misbehavior (which, it turns out, was actually blank). | |

Some of the assignments that the teachers hand out to elementary school students in Peanuts really make you stop and wonder. One instance included handing out a test that just says "Explain World War II." To say nothing of the books they assign for them to read in a very short period of time, like "Gulliver's Travels," "A Tale of Two Cities," "Anna Karenina," and "Tess of the d'Ubervilles." Some of these assignments would be daunting even for some college students, let alone elementary school students. | |

Terry Taylor: His gimmick as the Red Rooster during the late 1980s WWF, a novice wrestler guided by his "teacher" … Bobby "the Brain" Heenan. In promos prior to Taylor's debut, Bobby Heenan boasted that he was such a great manager and teacher that he could turn a "mediocre" wrestler into a feared championship contender. Naturally, Heenan succeeded only in embarrassing Taylor, often yelling at him, belittling him in interviews (e.g., "Maybe he's not the fastest wrestler" or "He often doesn't hit hard enough," etc.) and at least once slapping him after he lost a match. Predictably, Taylor eventually realized he didn't need Heenan and began doing things his way, further frustrating "the Brain," and eventually, Taylor turned on his "teacher". | |

FoxTrot: In one week-long series, Paige's biology teacher Mr. Ting assigned 60 chapters of reading for a test the next day, thinking it would "alleviate the tension" of the torrential rainstorms they were having. This only got worse for Paige, even though you can't blame the rest on Ting; the storm caused a blackout that made the assignment an even greater nightmare. And the worst part of it? While she managed to complete the reading assignment, Ting had no access to his computer due to the blackout, and wasn't able to hold the test. (Meaning she had done it for nothing. While it technically wasn't his fault either, he gave the assignment in the first place...) In another strip, he showed disappointment that Paige's lab reports were improving, claiming they were a source of entertainment for him. He seems a little more understanding in this strip, possibly because the cafeteria staff can be even more sadistic at times. In another strip, Paige's unnamed math teacher handed out the test sheets for the final exams dressed in a Grim Reaper costume and collected next of kin information. |

In My Immortal, every teacher except Trelawney and Professor Sinister are out to get Enoby and her posse (and half of them are perverts of some sort to boot). They're only ever shown yelling at Ebony for petty reasons, and otherwise don't contribute much to the plot. | |

Ms. Butcher from Zits. She supposedly writes Jeremy's grades in blood. To make things clear, one time Jeremy and his best friend Hector got the same score, a 94. Jeremy was still given a C- (and the aforementioned grade written in blood) and Hector got an A written in perfumed lilac ink. | |

Deadtime Stories: Volume 2: In "On Sabbath Hill", Professor Weaver is an arrogant and egomaniacal lecturer who does not allow absences from his classes. If a student misses one of his classes, he forces them to withdraw from his course to keep his perfect attendance record intact. This insistence on students attending his class no matter what will come back to haunt him in a very literal fashion. | |

In El Goonish Shive, the science teacher (who hasn't actually been seen in a while) was shown to feel schadenfreude toward Elliot during the time Elliot was locked in a female form during the "Sister" arc. He mocked Elliot for thinking that his teachers really cared about their students' education instead of just their salaries. The school principal, while well-intentioned, is fully convinced that art (murals in particular) is the only way to educate children about morality, and repeatedly abuses them through school policies in other ways because he thinks they don't count for the purposes of psychological growth. He isn't actively trying to make the children's lives miserable so much as trying to cut costs on essential services and resorting to abusive practices that he thinks are 'trivial' and 'forgettable' for the purposes of launching big-ass morality-boosting murals. Mr. Raven is a subversion; he starts out looking vehemently unhinged. He also refuses to believe Grace doesn't know anything about the World Wars, and then, when he tries to make it up by saying she should be in a special class, refuses to believe she could have learned about WWII that quickly. It's also mentioned that being one of his 'favorites' isn't a good thing; he's tougher on the students he likes because he expects more from them. But he will also fight to defend his students without hesitation, is apparently a decent guardian to Noah, helps Grace try to save a boar, and explains things patiently when they can't and is filled with recrimination about his role in Tedd's parents breaking up. He's really a Stern Teacher with enough personal baggage to comes across as a sadist if you don't know him. The whole initial incident boils down to Stern Teacher Raven assuming Grace and Ellen are typical high school kids and them assuming he's a typical high school teacher. Ultimately, Raven is simply the son of a national guardsman who was convinced by both his father (and his father's gruesome death) that children need to learn how to be tough, and that abuse is worth not watching them die horribly. And then there's his mother... Conversely, the math teacher offered a subversion — although he initially seemed like he was going to be one of these, giving Ellen and Grace a hard time for their improbable coincidences, he quickly revealed he was actually fooling around and in fact turned out to be quite nice. |

It's clear by now that the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic fandom loves the Ron the Death Eater trope. An infamous fic to take this trope is a surprising-not-Cupcakes (Sergeant Sprinkles)-inspired fic entitled Cheerilee's Garden. In said fic, Cheerilee gets fed up with her class's behaviour, even questioning her Cutie Mark in the process. So, what does she do? Frackin' KILL them by, in this order, impaling them with spears, crushing them with a lead block, dissolving them in acid, setting them on fire, eaten alive by rats, impaled vampire-style with their own unicorn-horn, and drowned in their own friends blood. All of which masquerades as a school play. In the direct sequel called Scarlet Harvest, she does arguably worse things to the mane 6 and Spike. It's safe to assume she can be considered this and in the sequel, she can also be considered a Villain with Good Publicity, even more so than this trope by itself implies. How good is the publicity she has? Twilight gets blamed for her murders. | |

Wendi Richter named The Fabulous Moolah as such. In order to train with her, she had to pay a sizable entrance fee and also rent an apartment from her - and she had to work at Wendy's to pay for that in addition to her grueling training. Moolah would also encourage the trainees to make themselves sexually available to promoters, while also taking a large portion of their booking fees, which she continued to do while Wendi was working with WWF for a whilenote When Wendi finally appealed to Vince McMahon and got all her pay sent directly to her, Moolah tried to injure her in the next match they had together.. The kicker? According to Wendi, Moolah never trained the girls personally and just got her more experienced girls to do it. | |

Little House on the Prairie: In the 1976 episode "Troublemaker", Miss Beadle is fired for her inability to control the older students (solely due to the influence of Mrs. Oleson). Miss Beadle is replaced by Hannibal Applewood, a mean, cruel headmaster who singles out Laura Ingalls as the school's bad seed after she is incorrectly blamed for a series of infractions for which other students were responsible, thanks to a completely false tip by Mrs. Oleson. Charles learns about "Mr. Crabapple" and his past and, after confronting Applewood about his demeanor, forces his resignation. Miss Beadle is returned to her job and the schoolchildren finally stand up to the school's true troublemakers. | |

Max's teacher in Where the Wild Things Are, who’s shown cheerfully explaining to a class of nine-year-olds how entropy reigns, the sun is dying, and everything is pretty much doomed in the end. An interesting example, as the sadism clearly isn’t intentional; the guy’s just doing his job and describing real aspects of astronomy, but he’s so oblivious that he doesn't seem to realize that maybe subject matter like that isn’t appropriate for a class of elementary schoolers. | |

In Fortune Summoners Mr. Harnel is a pretty open version of this (much of his dialogue early in the game is gleefully thinking of how he can torment his students). Ms. Sophia is a more subtle version; she seems nicer, but still has a mean streak (one student had to be "rescued" from her by the headmaster and she picks Arche to answer a mathematics question because she was the only one who didn't put her hand up). | |

In Big Nate, Nate likes to depict Mrs. Godfrey as this in his drawings and the way he talks about her. In truth, she's typically depicted as a fairly normal teacher in reality, albiet one that has very little patience for Nate's antics. Tellingly, no other characters seem to feel that way about her, and Francis and Ellen even view her rather fondly. The Nickelodeon series depicts her more in line with how Nate tends to view her in the comics. | |

Kekko Kamen: Most teachers at Sparta Academy, while extremely qualified in their subjects, take delight in tormenting the students, with the first chapter having one promising torture to anyone who'd get less than 90 in a surprise test-and then going through with it. This caused the school (supposedly the best in Japan) to either have the students commit suicide...or worse actually murder them and make it look like a suicide, prompting the arrival of Kekko Kamen to protect the kids and investigate the school for the police and the Ministry of Instruction, who have started wondering why the best high school in Japan has such a high student suicide rate, leading to the school eventually being shut down. | |

In the fourth volume of The Sandman (1989), "Season of Mists", Lucifer closes down Hell, so all the damned are forced to wander other places in the universe, including Earth. One chapter focuses on a boy at a boarding school left there for the holidays when this happens. The students who died while at school and went to hell are all resurrected, as is an old headmaster who proceeds to openly torture and torment the student body using old-school punishments. He is literally a teacher from hell. | |

Whiplash: Terence Fletcher is a disgustingly callous perfectionist who hurls bile at his students to push them past their limits. His methods work, but the mental scars they leave make it questionable if the skill is worth it. Some of the things that Fletcher has done to his students include racist and antisemitic comments aimed at his students, hurling chairs at them for being out of tempo, and forcing them to play until their hands are raw with pain. The competition between band members is so bad that any mistake could cost someone their hard-earned position, to the point one of them forced themselves to play drums while barely out of a car accident. Another former student suffered so much from the abuse that they killed themselves. When Andrew's father finds out about the abuse, he gets Fletcher fired. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Principal Snyder. He does explain why he's a teacher, despite hating kids: "Somebody has to keep an eye on them." An example of an Aborted Arc, as the end of an episode reveals he's among Mayor Wilkins' inner circle and is aware of the existence of vampires. The Season 2 finale also shows him reacting more with glee that Buffy is wanted by the police rather than nervous about being in the presence of a mundane juvenile delinquent. After she was cleared of all charges, Snyder still refused to let her back into Sunnydale High simply because he was glad that she was gone, but the school board, along with physical and professional threats from Giles, forced him to change his mind. However, he's returned to standard Sadist Teacher when Season 3 begins and is as astonished as anyone when the Mayor ascends. | |

Aizawa in Mean Rabbit, constantly singles out and punishes Izuku for anything he can think of. During the Quirk Assessment, he fudges the scores to expel Izuku and when Izuku refuses, Aizawa instead expels the five students who got worse scores, explicitly stating that "They don't deserve to be at UA if they can't beat one Quirkless kid". During the Battle Trial, Izuku breaks Bakugo's arms, due to Bakugo trying to murder him. Aizawa punishes both of them, insisting he doesn't care about Izuku's "little grudge" against Bakugo, despite acknowledging that Izuku had no way to defend against Bakugo's attack. Finally, when Izuku, Setsuna, and Tetsutetsu climb the fences to avoid the mob of reporters outside U.A., Aizawa gives them two weeks detention then bumps it up to six when they want to know why. | |

When Gohan stands up to him and damages his whip in the process, Mr. Shu quickly calls in Chi-Chi and makes Gohan seem like the bad guy... before declaring that Goku's abandonment drove Gohan to such violence and proceeding to whip Gohan across the face hard enough to draw blood right in front of Chi-Chi. Chi-Chi promptly goes Mama Bear on his ass, throwing him out the window and chasing him off of their property all while screaming at him never to come back. | |

Hank Zipzer: Ms. Adolf is Hank's teacher who despises even the concept of anything fun. She is very harsh towards students in her class who don't understand the lessons, like Hank. | |

In Avencast: Rise of the Mage, three senior teachers at Avencast Academy give the player character tasks to complete before they approve his graduation. Two assign easy tasks. Della Gustera sends him to pacify a huge crypt full of hostile undead that the wrathful spirit of the Academy founder reanimated, then threatens to withhold his approval anyway for destroying the founder's body in the course of their Boss Battle. Guess he really hates people who sleep in class. | |

The Karate Kid Part III: Terry Silver becomes Daniel's mentor all so that he can have him experience physical and emotional pain on behalf of Kreese. He even lampshades it in his monologging phone call to Kreese himself. | |

Sabrina the Teenage Witch: Principal Kraft will give out detention slips at the literal drop of a hat. An episode had the one-off character Mr. Rockwell, a rude and incredibly sadistic math teacher (for example, after warning students that anyone who was late to the test by even a second would fail, he shuts the door and taunts a student who was one second late due to helping a fellow student in a wheelchair). Sabrina asks her aunts for help and they eventually get him to stand trial in an Other Realm court, where he claims he hates teaching and is only doing it to raise money for his computer start-up. Rockwell is then sentenced to his worst nightmare: remaining a math teacher for the rest of his life. When Sabrina complains about the effect this ends up having on those unfortunate enough to be his students, Zelda handwaves it by claiming he teaches them a "valuable lesson" that some people are just jerks. Yay. |

Mr. Messerschmidt from Phil of the Future delighted in making the students miserable. He once administered a test, the Omicron Gambit, that's so difficult no one has ever passed. Even opening the test booklet is impossible: | |

Mr. Iwamoto and Mr. Akashi from YuYu Hakusho. The latter forces Kuwabara and his friends to swear off violence under threat of Okubo losing permission for his job, which he needs to provide for his family. When the students keep their end of the bargain, he forces them to score above 50% on the next test. When even Kuwabara succeeds, he alters his test score to provoke him to hit him and break the agreement, but he relents with Yusuke's help. Mr. Iwamoto takes items out of students' bags to frame Yusuke, and keeps one student's pen for himself. Mr. Akashi isn't seen after Takanaka catches him altering Kuwabara's test score, so his ass probably was fired. When Yusuke dies in the first episode of the series, these two actually discuss how happy they are that they don't have to put up with him anymore. At his funeral. Iwamoto's sadistic tendencies really come out when he's possessed by a Makai insect and tries to kill Keiko for simply being associated with Yusuke. Two other teachers in a manga-only arc did their utmost to set their prize pupils at each other's throats in a competition to see who in their school would be able to produce the one student who would go on to a prestigious high school. The fact that the girls in question had been friends before they did this didn't matter to them. In the end, the girls decided that their friendship was more important than the egos of all involved and selected a slightly less prestigious high school that they could both attend. |

Full Metal Panic!: Played for laughs with the gym teacher. He genuinely hates SÅ�suke, but SÅ�suke just sees him as a respectable Drill Sergeant Nasty. Whenever the teacher goes on a tirade against him, SÅ�suke treats him like an officer, which he considers back-talk. When the gym teacher attempts to sabotage the students' bread sales, he runs afoul of SÅ�suke's traps and gets sent to the hospital — but SÅ�suke mistakenly interprets his symptoms as overwork and mentally wishes the teacher a speedy recovery. And SÅ�suke's assumption that such sadistic malice is normal for a teacher makes him one as well. Just look at the way he trained the school's gentle, girly rugby team. Well, you can't say it didn't work... Considering that SÅ�suke obtained his training techniques from Melissa Mao, and her "How to Abuse a Training Recruit" manual, one must qualify Mao as one as well. |

Ms. Ackerman from "iHave a Lovesick Teacher" treats her students harshly after her boyfriend breaks up with her. The iCarly gang tries to get her to loosen up by setting her up with Spencer, but she turns out to be a Yandere who treats him horribly. Ultimately, they manage to get rid of her by tipping the FBI off about how she's been downloading pirated songs onto her PearPod, leading to her arrest. | |
