If Yoshikawa and Anko get together I'll have no respect for Yoshikawa ... unless he bangs he and leaves her (cuz that'd be funny)

This has to be one of my favorite eps. Yoshikawa playing it cool was... well, cool. And whoa Anko blushed. That has to be a sign XD And we got a glimpse from her past too... explains why she loves bullying sissies. LMAO @ the vice principal.

I like that Anko is start to gather some feelings for Yoshikawa, but I wouldn't agree if they did get together. Unless she got on her hands and knees and begged for forgiveness from Yoshikawa and Onizuka, and was totally and completely submissive. Then I'd allow it.

One of the best episodes. The T-shirt Yoshikawa wears does not suit him.
"What difference does it make, you're a moron..." the difference is that he could leave her, but he acted like a man. Youshikawa matured a lot form the first episodes. And Onizuka is still and idiot. xD

Seriously? Her bullying was totally way past the "teasing your crush" thing. He almost committed suicide!

Extremely against Yoshikawa x Anko. He can find someone much better. I don't care about her (at all).

I liked that he got some courage and actually saved her instead of leaving her back there. She should be thankful, especially after all she's done to him and he still showed kindness.

I enjoyed this episode but Anko x Yoshikawa is certainly a strange pairing. Imagine the stories they could tell their children...

"Hey kids, let me tell you about the time your mom and her friends beat me up, took naked pictures of me, and completely destroyed my self-esteem."

You can only imagine how much power that would give Yoshikawa in such a situation.

Yoshikawa isn't getting his way, when suddenly...
Yoshi:"Hey kids, wanna hear a funny story about me and your mother when we were children?"
and suddenly Anko becomes very cooperative.
Some parts of this post may be exaggerated.

He was the kind of character that you are no suppose to respect, he kind reminds me of Shinji Ikari actually, just slightly more cheerful.

Actually, this whole episode reminded me of NGE, especially Anko with her dolls... And her hair, both reminded me of Asuka.

But the switch is kind of fast, I mean how did she switch from bullying him to near suicide to liking him!?

And oh Urumi, I like you even more now. She is the perfect couple with Onizuka.

Lesson of the episode: Don't use violence or that person will use violence.

Probably one of the best episodes

I like how you think. That bitch should be treated like shit. Yoshikawa needs to understand that he can say "NO, FUCK YOU BITCH"

It's a running theme through out this show, but come on. You can't make us, the audiance, like everyone. Some of us do not forget things easily.

Miyabi and Anko will always be bitches no matter how much they change.

Yoshikawa finally man up. Hopefully this time for real although I think that at the very least in the bulling department nothing will change.

Right other than that... well it's cool for Yoshikawa to "get the girl" ... but truly look for someone else.

By the way, isn't this girl like a prototype for all Tsunderes in the future? It truly is prototype though as she doesn't work just yet. Well this show has like three good female characters in the whole story (Principal, Murai's mom, Nurse) but other than those three... well I guess Tomoko makes the cut but other than that... all girls are rotten or idiotic.

OH GOD here we go again with this fuckin bitch.
I swear i stopped watching this show for a whole month just because of how annoying Yoshikawa and those 3 cunts were in episode 38.

She bullied him throughout the show and then Yoshikawa being the little bitch he is goes out of his way to save her and after all that this cunt is still whining and complaining and still hitting him like that's supposed to be funny?.

and what annoyed more is that they try to justify her bullying with that terrible flashback.
Yeah my brother was mean to me so i guess i'm gonna ruin this guy's life.
Her screaming really made me pause the episode and question if i should just drop the show and end my suffering.


I just don't get it, seriously do people find that funny?
I swear this show has some of the worst most annoying side characters i've ever seen.


and what's with the "oh she bullies you because she likes you"? This show is seriously sending the wrong message to kids.

Yeah, definitely felt reminiscent of NGE. Though they actually did something more than complete copying but they used the cycle of violence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycle_of_violence) route which has been done so many times already. I can't say it's not realistic but it's quite tiresome to see again and again. Maybe that's why they kept it so short lol.

I also agree with the other poster about having Yoshikawa question why he's saving her and why he even bothers would bring more depth to his character. They bullied him to the point of suicide about 2 times and they acknowledged that they knew about it during this arc. Plus why he even would bother to be friends with Anko, I don't know. I would like to hear his thoughts on the matter but I'm guessing they won't go into it. Life is fucking weird sometimes and in some weird way, I can see this happening.

Overall, it was pretty entertaining despite the flaws. Onizuka was funny at the end.

Even though anime likes to draw straight lines from characters' actions to their backstories, it's still true that the past has a great effect on our mindset and actions. If Anko can heal from her past and Yoshikawa can forgive her, I'd be cool with the ship. It'd be interesting for sure.
