First ASSASSINATION CLASSROOM: GRADUATION Poster Showcases Falling Cherry Blossoms

Christopher O'Keeffe, Writer; London/Tokyo (@seven_cinemas)

As winter turns into spring, Japan's iconic cherry blossom trees come into bloom and the country's school children celebrate the coming-of-age that is their graduation. For misfit class 3-E this could mean the complete annihilation of the planet if they've failed to murder their psychotic, yellow-headed alien teacher.

This new poster for the second part of manga adaptation Assassination Classroom catches the ever-grinning UT (short for Un-killable Teacher) looking rather peaceful, bathed as he is in the gently falling flower petals. Does the image and the accompanying tagline, roughly 'Please don't forget me', hint at a softer side to the unstoppable monster? 

Perhaps, but whatever UT'S true intentions, expect more of the same crazy cartoon violence when Assassination Classroom: Graduation comes out next year.
