1. GOKUSEN IS BAAACK [Rating: 8/10]
HAHA! I am first again ^^
ok..about the dorama:

NEGATIVE: ok seriously.. its like everything repeats all over again!
everyone who already watched Gokusen 1 and 2 will not get
surprised at all when they'll watch Gokusen 3 *LOL* the storyline
did not change at all.

POSITIVE: ITS STILL FUNNY ^^ there are so many scenes where
you just cannt help yourself but to laugh really hard XD

..about the actors:

Takaki Yuya: ok ok he is a cute guy, thats true..BUT he tries
WAAAY too hard to be "the next akanishi jin".. in each episode
he copied jin's behavior/acting/face expression and at the
begining it was sweet but later it got on my nerves.. because I
am pretty sure he can act better than that and he do not need to
be a copy cat. AND SERIOUSLY who can ever be like jin or even
replace him??? that's impossible ;)

Miura Haruma: what can I say? I love him since "KOIZORA". He
is very handsome, talented and he CAN act. He do not need to
copy anyone because he creates a new and own character when
he plays another role...its like you see a totally different person
in each movie / dorama and thats what acting is about. To be
honest he was the main reason why I did watch the 3rd Gokusen
season till the end XD..he was like the star in the new
season..he made at least more interesting for me.

2. Feels like watching Gokusen 18 [Rating: 1/10]
This is barely a review at this point since I only saw episode 1, but what I saw makes me believe that I won't change my mind after watching the rest (I will try episodes 2 and maybe 3 unless it improves).
It felt like exactly the same scenario - again !!! - as Gokusen 1. I could accept some repeat in Gokusen 2, but 3 times is too much.
If you have never seen Gokusen 1, skip this one and watch Gokusen 1 instead.

----**** Attention spoiler ****----
Let me convince you by telling you briefly what the first episode is about:
- It starts with the old Kyoto-sensei (Namase) with a problem class 3-D
- Yankumi (Nakama) is the teacher of a class on a remote Japanese island but is fired. She joins the Kyoto-sensei and discovers (oh surprise) that she gets the difficult 3-D class
- The class is a mess, they all look like gangsters and make a lot of noise, until a very quiet one at the far end of the room tells the others to be quiet and they all obey and sit down. Yankumi finds out he's the Boss of the class.
- One in the class tries to hit Yankumi, she avoids his fist but pretends she did not do it in purpose
- Within the other teachers, there are 2 others nice-looking young women thqt the bad behaving kids talk about
- The former gym teacher Baba joins the school but surprisingly forgot Yankumi's connection with a Yakusa family
- One of Yankumi's kids is wrongly accused of a theft, everybody thinks he did it except Yankumi, she fights for him and finaly the police let him go.
- While bad boys are beating one of Yankumi's students, she comes into a hangar and beats them all while doing a speech
- While running to school, Yankumi collides with a man that becomes the white knight of her dreams
- and so on, and so on...

It is exactly the same script, same jokes, same stories, same background music, with less interesting characters and different kids. Rhhhhhaaaa what I waste.

4. If Gokusen 4 comes out..... [Rating: 5/10]
Skimmed through this for the sake of seeig what it was about and I think I think I'm being way too generous with a 5/10.....the plot is the EXACT same as its predecessors and the cast is getting less and less convincing each time. If you haven't watched the series before, watch the first and stop.

I never seen this, but I FIRMLY believe, that this drama is good just like the previous GOKUSENs.
2. Comments by ginger ale [Rating: 8/10]
When the original gets photocopied, its resolution kinda gets blurry. Gokusen 3 is a rehash of 1 and 2 but its more like Gokusen 2 after watching 4 episodes. The boys are younger and angrier and Takaki Yuuya stands out in my radar cause he was channeling Jin Akanisi's Hayato character from Gokusen 2. I love Yankumi, so I watch. But just between the two of us , Gokusen 1 was impeccable in storyline and casting. Gokusen 2 was irresistible because of Jin and Kame. So I am not complaining bring on the bishies in Gokusen 3.

i liked this season of gokusen because of miura haruma :)

Although this series has been overdone, gokusen 3 is a lot better than gokusen 2. I'm not sure what prompted me to watch this series, maybe it was due to another bad season of doramas, but if you go into this show with incredibly low expectations you might secretly enjoy it a little.
5. Comments by Patazilla [Rating: 8/10]
Ok, the plot isn't new, the tiopics aren't either... I nearly died at the first episodes, when the classmates always came running from nowhere to help. I still rolled my eyes in every episode later on, 'cause they never missed to have a fight in a warehouse. All the different evil groups of boys from other schools are risible... but still... I didn't expect too much after I was kinda disappointed of Gokusen 2. I just watched for some beloved Yankumi action. And anyhow I grew to love it despite all the facts named earlier. The characters were nice, I really liked the way how Kazama and Ogata interacted. and I clearly loved Sawatari! x3

Same formula for 3 seasons is abit too much and somewhat boring. Eyecandy cast and some comedic moments. Watch this if you did not watch 1&2.

10. Comments by Susan [Rating: 6/10]
Yet another Gokusen is done and over with... but was it really worth it to watch another series? Not really. At least 2 had some decent up and coming actors starring. 3 only had Miura Haruma going for it and in the end his character was flat and pushed to the side. Overall I was a bit disappointed. Even though this series did continue some events from the first series it was just more of the exact same speeches and events. I guess if you really LOVE Gokusen's story and characters it's fine, but I only liked them. If they ever make a Gokusen 4, count me out. ... Unless they bring back Sawada Shin. XD

The storyline is EXACTLY the same as in previous, only this time with some of the WORST "cute-guy-who's-supposed-to-be-cool-and-all-girls-love" actors ever... especially Takaki Yuya. Gokusen is Gokusen, but come on... at least use good actors!!! Still occasionally very funny.
12. Comments by Paine_kun [Rating: 7/10]
Even though this sequel wasn't as good as the 1st one, it was still nice to see, for another round, Yankumi and her unusual family.
13. Comments by marspeach [Rating: 4/10]
Only seen a couple eps so far but it's definitely the worst of the lot. The second season was bad enough but at least it had some hotties. They're all ugly or look 12 years old in this one. The acting is worse too. And the story is obviously the same, lame-o recycled one.
14. Comments by butterLiLy [Rating: 3/10]
What can I say, the original (Gokusen 1) still rules!!
It's getting repetitive. Pretty much like one of her student would get in trouble and then involve in a fight which would always be in an old empty warehouse and Yankumi to the rescue *rolleyes*
No surprises at all. None. Nada. Zilch.

I had enough of it!!

Giving it a try... mainly for the shits and giggles because I really still think Shin, Noda, Kuma, etc.. were the best! (And also what the manga is all about)

** After watching it, aside from a few cameo appearances from some actors that I like, this was again a big let down. Just move on to another series please... this is getting way too far from the original Gokusen manga...

funny as usual but the boys are not that cute!
32. Comments by JuLy [Rating: 5/10]
not much to say...three times without new move...new story...its just so so...
yankumi still great, but the acting from the rest of actors is so so...
The only one that eyes catching is 'kazama', but he's not tall enough hehe...
I dont like the one who plays 'Ogata', he just mimics Jin Akanishi's act at Gokusen 2 and the worst is he doesnt look a like enough even better than Jin was...
However, I noticed that this third season is sells Japans beatiful view, its absolutely clear view with great angle from so much scene, four thumbs up for the cameraman (I give 10 for cameramans team) ^^
-to be continued- (i've only seen the 1-4 episodes...still waiting the next episodes)

really all of this is almost exactly the same as the other seasons i mean there is the same problems and stuff as the previous seasons just different and less interesting kids...i think they should have came up with some thing different if they were going to make another season....it really bored me....

I am still watching this...
Even though I have given Gokusen 2 a low rating previously, watching Gokusen 3 made me realize that sometimes repetitiveness can be extremely comforting and enjoyable. The predictability of the series is something that I do not have to restate, since so many others have pointed that out already, but if you come home from a bad day, watching something that you are familiar with somehow makes you feel better.

Gokusen 3 is very good at that, providing a predictable storyline, yet never failing to induce tears in my eyes when it comes to the touching moments. I suppose this is the magic of Yankumi.

The same plot over and over again, plus this time, no cool guys.
38. Comments by sw33t_laydee [Rating: 7/10]
To my surprise, I though that this season was WAYYYY better than the second one. The scenarios weren't completely the same, such as season 1 and 2 but it did have their similarities. I went into it expecting the exact same thing as in the 2nd season but I thought this time around, it stuck out from the first two. Of course there will always be the delinquency and annoyances of the different views of the teachers but I thought the writers, this time around, took a chance and did some things much differently from before. Of course, it wasn't as great as the first season but it made up for what lacked in the second season.

Honestly.....this is ridiculous....how many times are they going to keep rehashing the same plots again and again?? And with a weaker and weaker cast...
42. Comments by oldasianguy [Rating: 9/10]
I really enjoyed this 3rd Gokusen because of 'yankumi'.....true the plot is the same as in Gokusen 1 & 2 but Nakama Yukie is so cool and enjoyable as the Yakuza teacher that I laughed all the way throughout the drama.....Really silly and impossible ...but I was tickled all the way....a five feet tall female teacher taking on all the neighborhood bullies and wiping them up....can't happen ..but it does in this drama.......
43. Comments by ellia [Rating: 5/10]
Boring already. They should've introduced some new plotlines at the very least. And cast is also not so great (just IMHO).

im voting for it because..ive been waiting for it but aLSO i really like Gokusen ever since ive watched its 1st season..

At first, I was disappointed to find out it was just the same old Gokusen 1 plot all over again. However, I had to take into account the Japanese preference for continuity, they will stick to whatever works.
So while I no longer deeply enjoy the third installment, I'm quite sure that Gokusen 3 will still be a hit.
