Ok Yukie is an excellent actress, however I don't like this show: Too formulaic, all boy school, two guys or gangs allways with the same hair and clothes face off in every episode.. EVERY episode. I gave each episode of Gokusen 1 a chance hoping that there might be something new or exciting, (new hairstyle or clothes in the actors maybe? not even) never happened. Now watched 2 episodes of the second season, STILL nothing new happens. I don't get the high ratings, but yeah Yukie is cool, which is why I gave it a '1' I'd like to see more of her.. in something else.. watch any season of Trick instead..

Excellent very "personal" drama ie., the viewer is 1 on 1 with only a few characters so you feel like you actually get to know them, other dramas might distance the viewer a bit too much. The feeling of the drama is also excellent very natural and cheerful through life's harshness and touching moments, good attitude. Also liked the *spoken* language (the sign language was great too) - they really made sure to intonate the spoken language properly etc and people made funny accents and pronounciations eg., prolonged vowels so that they are understood that kept me entertained also you won't see characters mumbling in this drama I really dislike dramas that distance the viewer and mumble! ok I have quirky pet peeves, anyway watch it its awesome

Yuichiro gets married in a VERY fast paced first episode. The rest of the episodes, he must conquer one family member per episode. Thus each episode has a memorable storyline with non-stop action. All the characters are loveable, and the excited pace of this drama make it one of the BEST I have seen. (I've seen about 10 full drama) For people with short attention spans that need excitement and need to smile/yell out loud. The soundtrack is awesome as well.
