Sommaire
Ryuuichi Kashima has always taken care of his little brother Kotarou due to their parents traveling most of the time. After the Kashimas suddenly die in a plane crash, an elderly woman named Youko Morinomiya offers to become the brothers' guardian until they both become adults. It turns out that she lost her son and daughter-in-law in the same tragedy. The teenage Ryuuichi can also attend the school where Youko works as chairwoman, on one condition: he must be part of the "babysitting club," which serves as a place to look after the children of professors.

At first, it may seem like a rough start for Ryuuichi, but with the help of his classmate Hayato Kamitani and many others, he will experience novel adventures with the children in the club.

In short: this is a HAPPY manga. It's cute, funny and has its own little surprises. It's got a simple, slice-of-life storyline that shows everyday happenings and gags. The overall plot is a bit sketchy and yet still to the point. A positive point is the background of the characters; their story is quickly summarized and immediately the adventures begin. But little tidbits are given as the story continues. The story is centred around the little toddlers but includes the protagonist's school life and other events to switch things up. Hints of other genres so far include parodies and romance, but nothing too distracting.

The main characters' personalities match each other perfectly. The older brother may be a little soft and too loving, but it's it's the responsibility and care that he's picked up from being the firstborn. Earlier on, I was concerned about him making friends with such character..I thought he might get bullied! Thankfully, nothing like that ever happened - he's adorable. And aloof. But it's funny. The younger is obviously carefree, but he's also cooperative and understands his big brother. They make a great pair and their good relationship is evident throughout the story.

The toddler attitude is portrayed pretty well, and each have their own personalities. This could be just me, but I find that it comes out a little too strong sometimes. These guys are just 3-4 aren't they? At some points they seem to act more like kids than toddlers (the things they do;;).

ART! Such a story is more likely towards a shoujo audience; everything is appealing. The cute toddlers, diverse students, young parents, even the comedic obaa-chan and butler pair are very well drawn. I am satisfied.

I guess I'll rewrite/add to this once the manga's over. I really like it! But I could just be overreacting.

If you've ever read and enjoyed works like "Yotsuba&!", "Barakamon", "Usagi Drop" and "Azumanga Daioh", you'll probably love this series too!

The manga follows two brothers; the older brother, Ryuuichi, who's an high school student and his younger brother, Koutarou, who is a toddler.
Due to a tragic event, Ryuuichi and Koutarou lose their parents, but they're taken in by a gruff older lady lovingly called "Obaa-san" (grandmother) and her butler, Saikawa.
Ryuuichi has to work in the "babysitting club", a club where teachers from the school drop off their children, as exchange for living with and studying in Obaa-san's house/school and the manga follows the adventures started in this club.

The story is very simple, but does it's job extremely well. Every chapter is very cute and has episodic stories with reoccurring side characters, references to previous jokes and running gags, etc. etc.
You'll find yourself satisfied with each chapter as they're all very fleshed out and leaves a sense of "ah, that was a good story" every time you complete one.

The art is cute and simple, it fits the story of the tone well with it's shoujo manga-esque art style, round toddler faces and exaggerated (to a natural extend) expressions. All the characters are easy to distinguish and identify from one another.

All the characters has a good and a bad side, which makes them seem all the more real. The main character, Ryuuichi, is a hardworking guy who loves his brother, but can also be extremely dense and an airhead, which sometimes causes him trouble as well.
All the children are written realistically to the extend that they're believeable, but you won't get annoyed by their irrational antics, fights, etc. as the characters and their "motivations" are often easily understood and related to.
All the side characters are great too and aren't just dismissed randomly after a few chapters. Even the characters who only show up once in a blue moon go through character development of some sorts, or at least get some kinda of backstory to understand them better.

Overall this is a great slice of life manga with a great cast, cute story/stories, a warm atmosphere and it leaves you with a sense of belonging and familial love.

I wasn't quite sure on reading this. I thought to myself, it's just a manga about babysitting kids. But it's so much more than that.

Story: 8/10
Each chapter seems to focus on a different thing going on with the babysitting club. Yet each chapter focuses on resolving something. The main plot is just about a kid who was suddenly taken in by a lady and he has to take care of a bunch of preschoolers.
There seems to be more of a deeper plot going on, but I still haven't quite figured it out. I think it's something of learning how to move on from losing someone. But that's just my take on it.
This story is really heartwarming though, and chapter 30 had me crying.

Art: 10/10
I really like the artwork in this! The way the kids are drawn is just super adorable and the way that the main character is drawn makes him cute! aha

Character: 10/10
Let's start with the Oba-san, she is actually my favorite character in the whole story. She puts up a front in which it seems like she doesn't really really care and that she's going to be bothered by Ryuuichi and Kotarou, but in reality she just doesn't want to show attachment. This makes her my favorite becakse she's trying so hard.
I love Ryuuichi! I think it's so cute how much he cares for his brother. Although I wish he wasn't so dense when it came to girls. LOL but he's a great character.
The other characters in the story make it funny! Like Inomata and Kamitani, they just add to the story and their little actions make the story funnier!

Enjoyment: 9/10
I honestly really love reading it (: It's adorable

Overall: 9/10
I feel like there should be more to the plot. It's just missing something. But overall I really like reading it. I'm going to be so sad when I finally catch up in it >~< ugh.
So I really recommend this to anyone who wants to read a cute, heartwarming story.

If you’re family has a history of high blood pressure, please consult a doctor before considering reading this manga.

Warning: Reading the manga can lead to severe side effects. From excessive grinning and smiling to moe heart attacks to uncontrollable blurts of “awwwww.” If you are willing to take these risks, then by all means, read Gakuen Babysitters.

The story is sweeter than any chocolate or ice cream you’ve ever had. Every so often, your heart will stop from the pure adorableness of the manga. I recommend you don’t try to read it one go or you may very well die from a moe heart attack. There isn’t a single chapter, that won’t put a smile on your face. You get pouts, sparkling eyes, and sometimes they talk like tis to mwake swure you wunderstand how cute thwey are. Despite the fact that you’re reading it in your voice, you just can’t help but hnnngggggg.

Do not underestimate the power of love between 5 year olds, their parents, older siblings, and one another. There will be times when your eyes cry rivers. Be it tears of joy or tears of sadness. Prepare a box of tissues beforehand and don’t waste all your tissues during the conflicts. You need to save some for the absolutely heart-warming tear-jerking moments when the problem is resolved.

Not all of the cute moments revolve around the kids. There is plenty of high school romance and comedy. Our main female lead is a tsundere, so it is hard not to smile when she turns dere. As for our main protagonist, he is naive & innocent. Dense leads are never fun, well except for this guy. He’s the embodiment of caring and brother-like, so his ignorance of love will only make him better as the person everyone loves.

The jokes never fail to make laugh. The comedy comes from the characters’ personalities. It’s not the type of comedy where ridiculous and out of this world stuff happens. The jokes happen, because the characters are who they are. For example, one of the characters solves his problems through violence. No matter who it is, he’ll chop them on the head. It may seem sad, but it’s actually quite funny. We also got a super butler, secretary, ninja...? who sometimes appears out of thin air. The way the characters act on a day to day basis is what creates jokes and funny ones at that.

The art isn’t amazing, but you don’t need the skill of Michael Angelo to make cute children. Just make them a little chubby, give them some big eyes, a flushed red cheek and voila, you got yourself an angel. Again, the art isn’t stunning and dazzling, but it’s definitely pleasing to the eyes.

The characters are all great. It almost feels like the cast is just one big family. There isn’t a single character I don’t like. Their interactions with one another are simply amusing and delightful to see.

Are you perhaps depressed, grief stricken, or just looking for something nice to read? Well, I got good news for you. There’s a manga known as Gakuen Babysitters. On a cuteness scale from 1 to 10, it’d be well over 9000. If this manga can’t brighten up your day, then I don’t know what can.
