It just rocks hard, really. Makes me laugh again and again, but it's not just a gag manga. It has a deep story behind, a lot of philosophy in it (even if it doesn't seem like it at first glance)... and a lot of social criticism and satire even (especially with teachers, being the author himself a teacher). Well, I don't think I can really say much other than I love it.
Also, just commenting that the element "Alcaesto" would actually be translated to "alcahest" (or "alkahest", but I like better the former spelling). It's a word that dates back to the 14th century, with Paracelsus and alchemy and the like... It took me about 2 hours to find the name in English.
