Kind of strange to go into a completely standalone story like this without much resolution to the previous arc.
Still, this was a fun episode, kind of felt like what they might've done if they made a GTO theatrical film.

Oh, also, I'm digging this new ending theme.

WTF!?!?!?!?! I thought I was watching the wrong episode! What an AWFUL transition.

I saw a post about the writers not being obligated to spoon feed us details, but I feel like it'd be common fvcking DECENCY to show Onizuka REUNITING with everyone and finding out about the Mercedes. WHY TF was he on a cruise ANYWAYS? If the writing staff had any COMPETANCY they would've squeezed another episode between 33 and 34 to fill in the gap... and I don't know, SHOW us the trip to the beach that they've been building us up for!?!

I thought there was gonna be a beach arc and everything.

Damn, that entire arc was completely rendered obsolete. I know arcs change but there's always some kind of canon transition or something.

This transition to 34 was just out of the blue... random. The audience clearly wanted a better conclusion.

So they really never even planned on showing us the big beach vacation...

Stupid. Infuriating.

(P.S. This was written only five seconds into episode 34. I didn't actually watch it yet.)

I thought this was a pretty decent series thus far, but this was just an explosion of inadequacy.

Huh... well, disregarding my comment above, I gotta say, this was indeed a very strange episode. Very hard to follow. And while the back-to-back-episode-transition was random -- the events of this episode were also seemingly random and unrealistic. Probably the worst episode of the entire series.

I thought it would be an average episode with Toroko struggling in show business again, but it appeared to be a different episode, way better than I expected earlier. :D

Interactions between Saejima and Onizuka were hilarious.

Even Japan's elaborate and ridiculous pranks have made it into anime. In the 90s!

Horrible pointless episode 1/5, no character development, very random and filled with plot conveniences.

Not as bad as last episode, still quite predictable and pointless though.

After the super long arc this was a nice change of pace. I like how strong the "friendship" between Onizuka and Saejima is xD

ED changed. But it's only the visuals. Not bad. I still like the first ED more. And I still skip OP2.

Tomoko brings about the best episodes always. I want her to be on every episode man.
Saejima is a hilarious side character as well, he goes well when paired with Onizuka.

that was a trap in a trap. Onizuka sure does find himself in rather spontaneous situations. new ed as well

At the beginning of the episode:
"Yup, that's me. You're probably wondering how I ended up in this situation."

A running trend in GTO is each episode or arc always seems to be going one way, but then it swerves and goes a completely different direction. By the time the police raid happened, I was actually lost. That was some great misdirection.

Terrible episode for me, they skipped the whole issue of Onizuka leaving on a boat of Tokyo Tou and the students crying behind. Besides this whole issue of the gold and the Yakuza was totally random.


I completely agree, I thought I was watching the wrong episode because it was so random.
I too thought it was the wrong episode.

Not a bad episode overall but still one of my least favorites. Didn't even remember the bomb fake-out but it was nice to see Tomoko Nomura calm and collected even when kidnapped and tied up despite a scary situation. And also didn't remember the ending credits being a little different, without Onizuka sitting alone in a classroom. Is it already time to greet the wonderful Shizuku ED for the last time?

Just like others have said it was pointless and it felt out of place, I was confused so I doubled checked it to find it was a filler episode.
