I don't think the live-action stuff can be as good as this. Considering the cringe-worthy acting in most of the J-dramas and the over the top characters and slapstick humour...

Ah well. I really enjoyed this one. I was surprised that this got rather low ratings and mediocre reviews, although I can see why. The concept of a (ex-gangster) "teacher that earns the trust of the students" has been done before, and neither animation, sound, characters or story are very outstanding. For me it worked tho, I thought the mix of (slapstick) comedy, action and drama was in good balance, and I would recommend this in a heartbeat for anyone who likes those kind of shows.

(Obligatory Great Teacher Onizuka comparison: Yes. GTO is better. By a fair margin. This one's still good!)

Pretty much all this.
Even though there are better shows out there, this still stands as good entertainment in my book. ;)

damn, what...?? ending was good but left me unsatisfied. It left opening for a continuation, but as it seems unlikely.

Whatever, i still enjoyed it. It was nice, and the characters were all pretty good. Specially the teacher of course. She was cool.

It might not have been the newest concept but I think this was quite enjoyable and entertaining.
Having a strong female character like this is nice.

My personal score is 7.5/10.

While it does have plenty of average moments I still think this is underrated.
Not that MAL scores should be taken seriously but there's so much undeserving crap that's ranked better than this.
