Delinquent in Drag, also known as Oira Sukeban (おいら女蛮[スケバン]), is a Japanese manga created by Go Nagai in 1974. It's a comedy with erotic undertones, following the story of Banji Suke, who disguises himself as a girl to attend an all-girls school. Being a rebellious boy, this situation leads to numerous comedic troubles. The manga was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Sunday from 1974 to 1976. In 1992, it was adapted into an OVA, released in the US by ADV Films under the title Delinquent in Drag. Additionally, there are two live-action films: Oira Sukeban: Kessen! Pansutō (1992), starring Shinji Takeda, and Oira Sukeban (2006), also known as Sukeban Boy, starring Asami. The narrative revolves around Banji's life at the girls' school, where he must conceal his true gender while navigating challenges from both classmates and the school's bullies. The series is notable for its unique sense of humor and exaggerated plot.
