Jigoku Sensei Nūbē (地獄先生ぬ〜べ〜, lit. "Hell Teacher Nūbē") is a Japanese manga series written by Shō Makura and illustrated by Takeshi Okano. It was published Shueisha's magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump between September 1993 and May 1999. The manga ran for 276 chapters and was compiled into 31 tankōbon volumes. The series follows Meisuke Nueno, aka Nūbē, the homeroom teacher for Class 5–3 at Dōmori Elementary. More than a teacher, however, he is a skilled exorcist, protecting the town of Dōmori from supernatural threats with strength borrowed from a powerful demon sealed in his left hand—a technique he calls the Demon's Hand.
