Dear Students!

First of all, this is closely related to GTO not Gokusen and because the teacher wasn't a former gang member nor a yakuza, there were less violence but, there were many incidents of bullying. Still, the main plot is about a passionate teacher being hired to be the homeroom teacher of a so-called gproblematic classh and she tries so hard to be accepted and trusted by the students. I guess the only thing that sets this apart from other school dramas is the fact that the *entire class* had experienced a terrible incident before the story took place which prevents them from not opening-up and trusting adults ever again. And so, after things settled down, it all comes down to a certain student which has the biggest grudge because of the things experienced since childhood. And as for the ending, it was practically the same with the 2 dramas mentioned above, nothing new at all. But I must say that I really liked YUIfs song. gMy Generation.h

This was a cute and fun series. I wasnft expecting anything from it so thatfs why I really enjoyed watching it. The three leads really did a good job plus additional laughs from the supporting casts. I was really convince by Mokomichifs performance as a robot and he really did prepare for his role. Aibu Saki went passed my expectation since she was always a supporting cast and this was really her very first lead in a full length drama series. While Hiro was the same old Nanba-senpai and I like him for that. As for the ending, I already know it would turn out that way but still, seeing it really makes me sad. And I must say that the BGM's here really fit the different moods in the series plus the ending theme, it was really nice to hear "Okaeri..." at the end of each episodes.

This was actually a breath of fresh air from Shun, after being type cast as the silent/mysterious character in dramas since 2005. But.. I guess it was overdoing it a little, most especially in episode 1. There were even times that I really resented his acting & his character. Good thing, it lessens as the story went on. The situation was more realistic but the lead character wasn't so that's why the way he handled it was different from what a normal person would do. I started liking it at around ep4, thatfs when I really started laughing at Shunfs character plus the scenes with Shiraishi that would always end up in him hugging Shiraishi. Also, the scene when Koyama was counting the money while Omu Omu keep on distracting him and donft forget the weird scenes with his mother. All in all, it was a mixture of a human drama, light to exaggerated comedy and friendship. I wouldn't say that I didn't like the ending but I guess adding that marriage thing in the end was not necessary.

It's very funny and very inspiring series. I loved the way they did their best to reach their goal of doing synchronized swimming for their last year in high school.

I like the story very much. The actors/actress did a good job. I also like the funny scenes with Yui & Manato/Yui & Saeki. And eventhough Sawamura is the other girl in this series, she's not like the other girls' in other doramas that seeks revenge after being heartbroken, instead she helps Manato to be true to himself and let him confess his feelings to Yui.
