Dangerous High School Girls in Trouble! -a satirical RPG

Yes, it's a game. By the look of it, a fun send-up of the RPG genre, set in a girl's high school in the 1920s. But it sounds like a surprisingly good RPG, with many of the traditional RPG trappings: various weapons stats, skills, building a party of NPCs, combat/confrontation, etc. Be sure to click on the thumbnails, if you've got a wry sense of humor.

You can read about it here, and get details on its mini-games here.

Just in demo, right now. I'm waiting on the final release.

Sorry for the late reply but doesn't this setting sound familiar? I almost mistook it for some Japanese title.

Actually, so did I..

I'm not sure what to make of the description, but I'll be interested in Fable's impressions.

I liked the little I saw of it, and interested my wife, who downloaded the demo. It looks like a fun RPG parody, a sort of cross between Dickens, the Belles of St. Trinians, and a bit of Charles Addams. The idea of acquiring boyfriends to use as meatshields when verbally attacked by suspicious matrons and janitors is a great one.
