ahfang · 4 Oct 2006

actually i dun tink the story should stop..coz gt 4guys like yukie is jun,ikki,ken and ikki assistant...soo they should continue tat yukie will choose which guy and nt stop this story and start a new gokusen season 2 in new character...they still haven finish their studies,sooo actually they should continue...if gt gokusen season 2,i think the director should ask this 4 person in the character again and let yukie choose which guy he like...nt always she help the students and fight wif the bad person...should haf some romance tooooo..if nt,nt really that nice...soo i hope gokusen season 3,this 4 guys will chase yukie and ofcoz yukie aso will help student..like tat i tink is more interesting...hope director can see...thanx...

Incredibly Cheesy GTO Clone

zoglog · 6 Sep 2006

The show mixes things up with the Yakuza family aspect and has some funny moments. However the drama is mukkied up by too much excessive sentimental junk that serves no real purpose. The worst parts are the fight scenes that are rediculously campy where they're trying to portray her as this super heroine..... In the end the show fails in so many aspects in comparison to GTO that I found it rather dissapointing. This has got to be one of the most overrated Jdramas out there. I did enjoy watching it through, however the current placement under GTO on ratings is disgusting really.

More violence perhaps?

I guess the high ratings are understandable. The story really was entertaining.

However, personally I thought it was a bit lacking. Don't get me wrong. I enjoyed it enough that I finished all 12 episodes in a week. But I found it too idealistic maybe? Sometimes Yankumi really pissed me off. We all know that in real life, problems cannot be settled with just a fight and good long lectures. If it was so, it'd be a breeze, ne?

So in that respect, I found some of the more intense episodes tiresome to watch. Also, I was expecting much more violence; such as that of the manga! I'm a big fan of mob movies, so when I found out she was of yakuza descent, I was hoping that the family business would at least be more pronounced even if it's just a side dish. Instead, we have yakuza members selling takoyaki, and we don't find out anything else. That disappointed me severely.

The actors were brilliant in their stead though, especially Yukie, so the show carries a charisma that is hard to ignore. It's passable in my books.

Love It.

I loved the whole series it was so interesting. I liked the actress who played "Yankumi" because she was the perfect person to play the part. When I finished watching theis season I was so upset because I had no idea there was a second season. The reason I voted it a 9 instead of a tenparts seemed a little too fake for me but... I still loved it considering it was like my first jdrama in a really long time.

I, like many young women, instantly fell in love with Sawada Shin! However Nakama Yukie became a favorite artiste as well. She was fabulous and funny as Yamaguchi Kumiko. I've never seen the manga or anime that this series was based on, but I just might have to check it out now.

An amazing show? HECK YES.

This is a perfect comedy with a well written story. Everyone wishes for a teacher like Yankumi and the students of 3-D are lucky to have her. This drama is great fun and really entertaining. The stories are good and the characters are awesome!

Kawaii...

It's soo funny I love the way the story goes funny but not to the point that it's super idiotic . The cast are perfect for their roles. Though I think there should be more shots of Kumiko's somewhat disfunctional type of family. But all in all its still a great laugh and a great way to learn your values.

Funny and Enjoyable

I like this drama... It is so funny and enjoyable especially Yankumi. She try hard to be 3D teacher though she did not look like a teacher... Well, What I want to say is that this drama is worth of watching. Anyway, I am curious Yankumi will choose who to be his lover. At the end of the series, you can see that there are 4 people like her. One of them are Sawada Shin. Haha... Maybe only Yankumi know.

gokusen!

The first dorama I've seen with Matsumoto and Oguri in. I've been following their doramas ever since. not one of my favorites but one of the good ones (i'm just more into love stores like their rolls in Hana Yori Dango)

sugoiiiiiiiiii

I loved this so much! I didn't think I would like it that much since I'm more prone to full on romance dramas, but this one totally got me hooked! Plus 46 minutes of ogling Matsujun. Yuuuum.
