Fan reviews: Gakko ja Oshierarenai!

Yet another school drama with another wacky twist...character and plot developments are not that great. Probably being a bit generous by giving this a 7/10...

The first two episodes of this drama are pretty funny. However, it's all downhill from there. Although the first half to three-quarters of the series is watchable, it never lives up to the first two episodes and turns from a comedy into a shallow drama. The last few episodes revolves around the characters trying to give touching summaries of the others. However, it doesn't work because the characters never really click and don't really share any emotion throughout the story. Even after ten episodes I couldn't remember the names of the characters, as they didn't make me care about them at all. The only one who was pretty good was the character Tomu (Morisaki Win), who also shows off his singing a couple of times. I guess this drama would be enjoyable for fans of Morisaki, especially female fans. I was also disappointed in Tanihara Shosuke's role, which didn't allow him to express any emotion whatsoever.

The gay and lesbian theme throughout the drama was also quite disturbing.

I also found too that the characters changed too easily. Not really satisfying or believable.
