Looking forward to more. Onizuka seems to be quite good, despite the impression he makes at first.

I agree, although I actually really like the old 90's art! :)

I can already tell that Onizuka is going to be an amazing character!

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.

Hilarious and amazing first episode! Onizuka's facial expressions reminded so much on Kintaro from Golden Boy. This anime is gonna be amazing.

It has so many potential, next episode.

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.

What a weird girl, she's rich.. but scamming a teacher for money?

That was a weird way to repair relationship by destroying a wall
He definitely went into jail immediately if that was IRL :P

"Gureto" xD
Well the end is kinda nice, though it's just for one character in the end.. that we might not even see for the rest of the anime

An hour long episode for the premiere. Kind of interesting, you don't see too many anime do that.

I really like the art style and directing, but the animation feels like a mixed bag, sometimes looking really impressive and other times looking a bit cheap. It also looks like there were a couple of digital shots thrown in among all of the CEL animation, or am I imagining things? Anyway, it kind of feels all over the place, but it's certainly got some impressive looking moments. I hope it stays more consistent going forward.

I kind of like Onizuka as a character so far, but his perverted side makes him feel a bit too much like other serious/pervy characters out there like Sanji or Ryo Saeba. However, so far I think he isn't written as well as those two. I do enjoy his monologues whenever he gets serious though, and I think there's some room for development, so I'll see if he grows on me.

As for the story, for this first episode it took a few interesting turns and was overall a pretty nice intro to the series, but I'm kind of underwhelmed by the unrealistic nature of a few of the scenes. Meh, I guess I'll just suspend my disbelief and see where things go from here. The next episode preview makes it look like Onizuka is taking on another odd job. I wonder how soon it'll be before he goes back to being a teacher.

That chat between the student teachers about not taking teaching seriously will probably resonate through the series as Eikichi cares more about his job.

Wow everything down to the bashing the wall with a hammer, the live action series was accurate.

Onizuka's imagine spots with the gold frame are hilarious.

I don't remember GTO to be ecchi lol but I'm not complaining. I watched this way back when, when it aired here and I was still little. Don't remember much about it aside from it's fun so I thought why not re-watch it?

I went into this knowing Onizka's gonna be perverted, but damn he's trying to go full pedo. Since its so highly rated I'm gonna give this a proper go, but I gotta say it felt pretty awkward during some of this ep.

I don't know if I gonna hate or like this show. But kinda like it and it got me interested at the end.
I'm annoyed with rich problem of Nana and she nearly end Onizuka's career! (If I'm Onizuka, I will slap her!) That's why there's bitch / slut, it's because of stupid pervert guys!! Onizuka's way is not ordinary but it moves people though. That's nice!
