If you're new to anime or haven't seen this series before, just stop reading this and watch the first episode. It's worth the watch.
Story- 9/10
There are a few episodes per student (that is major in the plot) that shows how he goes to far lengths just to get them to open to him and to trust him. He does this all while doing stuff that would make you laugh (If you're into dumb jokes and situational humor). Seeing how he works his way up is very enjoyable and I believe many would like seeing this. Not to mention, there are scenes where you can get indulged in, especially scenes when things work out against Onizuka and you can't help but root for him and hope he can make it through.
Art- 10/10
Considering that I myself am a fan of 1990's Anime Art, the art is very nice for the series (considering that it came out in 1999), and what makes the art enjoyable are the facial expression shown by characters. This is especially the case with Onizuka and the Vice-Principal Uchiyamada when something ridiculous occurs.
Sound- 8/10
The OST for this anime is very good. The 1st and 2nd OPs are very catchy and great to listen to, and the songs played in various scenes fit perfectly to the atmosphere of the show. Sincerely, I do recommend for people to listen to the OPs, which are among my favorite in all the Animes I have seen.
Character- 10/10
The Characters in GTO are very enjoyable and I came to love the characters and their dynamics/relationships with both Onizuka and each other. It's nice to see various characters and their pasts and you get to understand how they are with these explanations, that at the end, you can't really hate any of them. Each of them have their own quirks and personalities that make them pretty memorable.
Enjoyment- 9/10
While there were many episodes that were interesting, there were a few scenes that would bore me and I wouldn't really pay attention to. For the most part though, the series had both funny moments that would make me laugh in my seat or bed (depends on when I saw it), and it had moments where you'd feel pensive and learn from the lessons the show gave, especially when Onizuka talks with the students.
Overall- 10/10
Considering this is one of the first Animes I completed (Completed in July 2016), this was a very memorable series that I loved dearly. This show has many features that make it enjoyable, so I feel anyone can enjoy this series for years to come. This one is a classic for the 90s (But not like Cowboy Bebop, Evangelion, or Sailor Moon), and I think that almost everyone would enjoy this series for what it has to offer.
