History Manga / Jesus

Jesus is a world-renowned assassin, feared by many a {{Mook}} and wanted by almost every government organization out there. One day, he gets the bright idea to steal one ton of heroin from a {{Yakuza}} group, fake his own death, skip town and then profit from the stolen drugs. However, he soon hits a snag in his plan, and things go from bad to worse. His fake visa isn't ready for him to leave the country yet, the body double they used is a high school history teacher, and to top it all off, the drugs get sealed inside a reinforced blackboard, and hung up in the very school his body double worked at.

!!This series provides examples of:

-->'''Bad Guy:''' "Jesus!" (Using it as a swear word)
-->'''Jesus:''' "That's what they call me. Remember it when you get to Hell."

Not to be confused with...well...y'know...[[UsefulNotes/{{Jesus}} the religious figure.]]

* NotSoDifferent: Jesus admits he was exactly like Togawa when he was young. Possibly counts as {{Foreshadowing}} of Togawa's potential future self, especially with Jesus as a teacher.

** Proven when he raids the Shibayamagumi HQ, and [[spoiler: sees them dragging a drugged Mizutani into a car.]] He has a few moments where he tries to justify ''saving'' her, and insists to himself he's not doing it to be a nice guy.
*** Also, earlier when the same Yakuza group launched a driver-less logging truck at the school, his first thought was to protect the heroin housed inside, not the students and faculty.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Jesus shows a bit of this, when he’s even nice enough to take [[spoiler: Mizutani]] home after he saves her.
** [[spoiler: He also does his best to keep his high school class alive on their overseas trip gone bad, and later makes sure they get back to Japan safely]].
** [[spoiler: Let's not forget how Jesus tried to make sure Togawa, who he considers to be his younger self, does not get involved in the underworld.]]

* TookALevelInBadass: Thanks to TrainingFromHell, [[spoiler: Jesus' class goes from normal high school kids to skilled mercs, due to circumstances.]]
* TrainingFromHell: Jesus [[spoiler: puts his class through this to impart to them the skills necessary to survive a war-torn country and make it back to Japan.]]
* ViewerGenderConfusion: Misaki Kaoru, full stop.

* BadAss: Jesus in general. So badass, that when he saved [[spoiler: Mizutani]] he was able to wrench a guy out of an open car window, ''while sitting on the roof of the speeding car''.
