Onizuka's insane. He's probably the only adult capable of earning any incorrigible ruffian's respect. I hope the show continues down that road instead of playing up the perversion.

I really love the art, too. The expressions and ruffians look soooo gritty, whereas the girls are all perfect little flowers. Everything's drawn as Onizuka would see it. (The opening's pretty awesome, too.)

Nanako's behavior was too promiscuous, though. I was surprised she even went along with the trap (err, that she planned herself. :S), much less seriously start undressing in front of her teacher. I understand he really did a lot for her (also unrealistic but epic enough for fiction), but really? That's how she thanks him?

It felt a little bit odd at first with the animation and all, but it didn't take long to get used. The show really dragged me in but in the middle of it I got this feeling that it was running for a bit too long, turned out it was a 48 minute episode. Very entertaining and I got high hopes for this anime, you can pull of a lot of things with this kind of story.

That was an amazing first episode. I was watching season 3 of bakuman when i first saw this (to decide on what to watch next). It reeled me in, i wanted to watch this episode more than the last few of bakuman.

This anime is freaking awesome, haven't laughed so much since the last time I watched an episode of Gintama. I just love the faces Eikichi makes, they crack me up every time especially the last one at the end xD

What a brilliant first impression! I'm hooked. :D Also, watching many '80s anime before watching this makes the art/animation of this show look stunning.

This was a good start, despite that cheesy stupid shit about how Onizuka destroyed the wall in Nanako's house in so-called heroic way and how Nanako parents got together after that. so fucking cheesy. it's totally bad melodramatic event.
despite that, i laughed many times during the episode.

I didn't like this. I didn't find it funny, I didn't like the story, and I especially disliked the main character. I don't know should I give some other episode a chance? Maybe my impressions will get better?

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

this was so good! 40 minutes that felt like 10...

This was awesome

Wall breaking scene, again, epic!

1 hour episode, interesting.
This show is so crazy, very weird, yet it feels fresh by today standards, it is different from the cute high school stuff, though it's doesnt feel like a great show, I hope it would turn out to be.

Epic first episode! Onizuka's got so many anti-hero qualities and there's a lot of potential for a character like that.

Mizuki is straight up trash and I would never have helped her after that stunt she pulled. But it looks like her role is mostly finished so that's good.
