''Sentai School'' was one of the very first manfra [French [[Animesque]] comics] edited by Semic Manga and then by [http://www.mangakami.com// Kami] between 2003 and 2008.It was written by Philippe Cardona and Florence Torta, and drawn by Philippe Cardona. It debuted as a doujinshi before it was published in ''Coyote'', a French anime magazine.
It's about a Japanese [[Super-Hero School]] where the students/ heroes are sentai or shonen. At first a boys school, it becomes coeducational in volume 2, introducing magical girls or [[Action Girl]]. The story is an [[Affectionate Parody]] of manga, especially sentai and others well known in France. Nearly every character is a spoof of famous manga characters: For instance, Oscar sensei the costume teacher looks like the real Oscar, ''[[Rose of Versailles]]'' heroine. There are two poor and starved children, named Remi and Sarah, that spoof heroes from ''Sans Famille'' and ''[[A Little Princess]]'' animated series among others. Moreover, savvy readers will notice [[Shout-Out|Shout Outs]] to monsters that look like [[Doraemon]] or Mike from ''[[Monsters, Inc.]]'', and bit players like Maetel from ''[[Galaxy Express 999]]'' in an airport.
Characters page is on its way.
