I did know that Nanako Matsushima and Sorimachi were married in real life. I didn't know about the rivalry between Takenouchi and Sorimachi, though. It appears to me that Sorimachi is the most successful of the two men - would this be right?

That would be right, I guess. I think it was a friendly rivalry though

Now every time I see the poster in Azusa's room, I can't help but chuckle.

And the poster is HUGE, too.

Just finished GTO drama - waaaaaaaaaaa!

I found it FABULOUS viewing. Really really enjoyed it. So jealous we have nothing this good in the UK.

I've got the special and the movie.
I saw about 10 minutes of the special, but I'm going to have to watch it again because it was confusing!

Nothing all that confusing about the special.

Onizuka is doing that old lady a favor by teaching at that school you see him at

Oh, I didn't get to the old lady.

All I saw was some woman in a news room having flashbacks (or something), and then Onizuka rolls in on his motorbike and saves a kid from squishing himself on a railway line.

And then I turned off and scratched my head, lol.

You're watching the movie then if it deals with some kid trying to get run over by a train

Yea....this one wasn't good as compared to the movie or the drama, but Tanaka Rena is just sooo hot

Oh...shouldn't I watch the special first, then the movie?

My discs are not well labelled, so I just presumed I was watching the special.

Hey everybody. i am new around here and i have not watched lots of dramas at all. The first i ever saw was GTO. and i have to say: it is one of the best things i have erver seen in my life:-) what about you. how do you like GTO( I want to know if i am the only crazy one who likes it, or are they more people loving it like me) All my friends dont like Japanese Dramas!!! Thank you

There's already a thread for this drama.

PLEASE use the search engine before starting any new threads.

Locking.

Was there IMAI TSUBASA in episode 6 (one of those 3 friends at the truck race)? o_O! I think one of the boys looks exactly like imai tsubasa, but he wasn't in the setlist.

I am very new to JDrama's, as I have only watched the Densha Otoko series so far (finished it last week). I decided to watch GTO next, since it is ranked so high here.

I wasn't sure what to think at first. I'm not watching to see attractive people, cute situations or exaggerated humour. At first that's all I thought it was going to be. However, once I got to the scene with "the wall", I decided this was something I wanted to stick with. I really felt moved by that - as crazy and outlandish as it was.

If the rest of the shows surprise me with moments like that, I'll be happy to stick with it!

PS. Love this site, what a great resource for total newbies like me.

i watched a loooot of jdramas but i have to say GTO was defenetely the best jdrama i ever seen.. onizuka has a great personality because he can make you fall down from laughin but at the same time shed some tears from somethin moving he says.. they shud have made a second season =/ but too late for that i guess.. still very good drama never felt like dragged on.. deserves #1 ranking!!!!!!!!!

i 100% agree to all of you.. GTO is the father of all dramas in Japan..

Takashi Sorimachi really a living legend..

you guyz might want to try all Sorimachi's dramas...

look to my sig.. thats his famous dramas..

While Sorimachi is no doubt an excellent artiste and "GTO" an equally excellent drama, your statement is a bit over-presumptuous.

Japanese dramas back in the 70's built the foundation for the domination of TV time throughout Asia. The likes of "Oshin", "Sign wa Bui", and "Akai Meiro", to name a few, were the craze at the time.
