Nanbaka

Nanbaka

Synopsis: Nanba is the most formidable arrest in the world, built to incarcerate criminals who are too slippery to remain in a common confinement. The four prisoners occupying cell 13 are particularly cunning in this regard, having escaped from any other prison with a perfect success rate. There is Juugo, an expert in locks that spent most of his life in prison; One, a player with great intuition; Nico, an otaku whose body reacts strangely to drugs; and rock, a bruiser with a love for food. The daily mischief of the four prisoners always cause problems for the building's supervisor, Hajime Sugoroku, who desperately tries to prevent them from breaking from Nanba.

Nanbaka follows the comic and bright exploits of these prisoners and their guards. From three square meals a day to sports festivals, life in prison in Nanba is not that bad - and is the closest to these four.
