Gokujyo: Gokurakuin Joshikōryō Monogatari (ゴクジョッ。〜極楽院女子校寮物語〜, lit. "Extreme Woman. The Tales of Gokurakuin Girls School Dorm") is a Japanese manga series by Maya Miyazaki. An anime television series by LMD aired in Japan between January and March, 2012.^[2]

Plot

The series follows the exploits of Aya Akabane, a busty and arrogant high school girl who is constantly trying to outdo her classmates in everything (especially anything topic related to sex), only to make a fool of herself in the process. The show is set at Gokuraku High School, an all-girls boarding school.

Characters

Aya Akabane (赤羽亜矢, Akabane Aya): Voiced by: Yōko Hikasa; The main protagonist, a loud mouthed girl with an eye for looking sexy and a short fuse.
Konatsu Toro (土呂小夏, Toro Konatsu): Voiced by: Natsumi Takamori; Aya's friend, who is often used as an outlet for Aya's rage, most often being grabbed by her ponytail.
Ai Nanasato (七里愛, Nanasato Ai): Voiced by: Maaya Uchida; Konatsu's best friend who is pretty normal compared to everyone else.
Asuka Utsunomiya (宇都宮飛鳥, Utsunomiya Asuka): Voiced by: Nozomi Sasaki; A mysterious girl who often talks about spiritual phenomenon. She appears to be romantically interested in Aya.
Madoka Oowada (大和田円, Oowada Madoka): Voiced by: Satomi Akesaka; A wildly perverted girl who has various fantasies and constant nosebleeds.
Kaname Oku (尾久要, Oku Kaname): Voiced by: Yukari Kokubun; A teacher at Aya's school and the head of a bosozuko biker gang.
Saya Akabane (赤羽沙矢, Akabane Saya): Voiced by: Mamiko Noto; Aya's older sister who is a gang member alongside Kaname and is greatly feared by Aya, despite her sweet and gentle personality and always having a smile on her face.
Minami Kurihashi (栗橋南, Kurihashi Minami): Voiced by: Ayana Taketatsu; A wealthy transfer student who looks down on others, often calling them 'potato girls'; she prefers being called by her nickname "Minamin". She used to live in France and later Los Angeles until her father got a job transfer back in Japan. Upon her recent transfer, she's been assigned as the school's health officer and refers to Aya as "Aya-cchi"-(much to the latter dismay). She has an electric toothbrush that she calls "Francois".
