Concerned parents and lawyers looking to enforce their morals have been causing a tussle online about an unofficial shirt for teacher assassination anime Ansatsu Kyoushitsu, due to the shirt’s unsavory “Keep Calm and Kill Your Teacher” slogan – though with the outraged complainants in question likely having no knowledge of the series that the shirt is based on.
A variant of the “truly offensive” shirt:
The outrage has been so massive that all the fearsome powers of an internet petition has been brought to bear in order to force the withdrawal of the shirt from all retailers – and after just one week, the petition has managed to acquire the signatures of over 10,000 dedicated white knight internet justiciars.

y'know it's a good slogan for another Battle Royale movie."Keep calm and kill your homeroom teachers."
given the fact that most peoples is actually ignorant
some kids in TX may wear it and start a gun spree on a random class
now I wonder why there's nothing like "Keep calm and start killing peoples that too serious" yet and sold it in every movies theater available worldwide?
I'm sure if there's something like "Keep calm and burn a jet fighter pilot alive" with Arabic text will sold a lot in some places
So many lame people in a single petition. Wow.
who ever thought of this never really thought all the way through did they?
They should have wrote "KEEP CALM AND KILL YOUR ALIEN TEACHER".
Koro-Sensei is not an alien.
Kill your octopus teacher then
Koro-sensei is a mutant human...
Then people would complain that illegal immigrants have rights too :)
I wouldn't mind wearing this shirt to school. I'm pretty sure many of my students would get the joke.
You need to wear a korosensei mask, too.
I heard about the petition, but was told it was because it was copyright infringing and the creators where being dicks... did these people not notice the big smiley face in the background and question it?
Kind of irrelevant, it makes it that much more rightfully creepy. But I sure as shit will be buying this shirt.
This is what happens when insensitive people just mindlessly do things their own way, it doesn't matter which countries because this kind of behavior can be found anywhere. The Manga itself is fine as morals is taught as well besides "killing" the target. I really hope the Anime isn't affected in anyway by this incident.
Any way you look at it it's just a dumb thing to do. They had to know there would be this kind of blowback.
I can understand why. Without context, the shirt just comes off as tasteless. No one seems to be shitting on the series either since it's unofficial, so who cares.
it'll still get complaints even after knowing the context
Who cares what the slogan is based on. People are crazy, and will wear that shirt and kill their teacher. It'd probably be fine though, if they had put the whole thing in qoutes, so that they can say they were quoting.
I killed my teacher today and painted the shirt red with entrails and blood. Just as the shirt told me to.
you're the winner here champ. 3/5 gold stars!
