The TV anime concluded with the dramatic downfall of the Underground Student Council (USC) and the official release of the five male students—Kiyoshi, Gakuto, Shingo, Joe, and Andre—from the school prison. The OVA picks up shortly after these events, adjusting to the new status quo of Hachimitsu Academy.
: The OVA adapts a specific "lost" arc from the manga that wasn't included in the 12-episode TV series. It introduces the Aboveground Student Council , setting the stage for a new dynamic where the boys are free, but the previous "Underground" student council members are now the ones behind bars.
As of June 2026, there has been no official announcement regarding a Prison School Season 2. Despite the success of the 2015 anime and the OVA, the series remains in limbo.
The anime only covers a small portion of the massive manga series (up to chapter 93), which continues the chaotic story of the Underground Student Council.
One of the most refreshing aspects of Prison School , highlighted in the OVA, is the agency of its female characters. Unlike many series in the genre where women are passive, the girls in Prison School are the primary drivers of the plot.
The central question posed by the OVA is a hilariously ironic one: What happens to the boys of the "Prison School" when they're finally free? The "Underground Student Council" has been imprisoned, and Kiyoshi, Gakuto, Shingo, Andre, and Joe are released from the Prison Block, returning to their lives as normal students.
The episode adapts the infamous manga chapters dealing with the immediate aftermath of the prison break, emphasizing the bizarre, tense, and deeply hilarious dynamic between Kiyoshi and Hana. Expect intense confrontations, misunderstandings, and the signature sweat-inducing tension that Prison School zeroes in on so effectively. The Boys Adjust to Freedom
The Prison School OVA, "Mad Wax," is not for the faint of heart or those offended by excessive fanservice. However, for fans of the show’s unique blend of melodrama, comedy, and intense psychological shenanigans, it is a must-watch addition that perfectly encapsulates the chaotic charm of Hachimitsu Academy.
The absolute highlight—and source of the OVA's title—is Meiko Shiraki’s psychological breakdown. Striped of her tight leather outfit, her whip, and her dominant status, Meiko loses her confidence. Without her trademark dominance, her body literally begins to deflate, and she becomes meek and helpless.
Are you team , or are you rooting for the Aboveground newcomers?
