Time To Take A Look At The Beauty That Is GTO
4 comments
Evening folks
For tonight's post, we are taking a look at GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka.
Now this is a great manga but also a great anime series.
It involves 22 year old Eikichi Onizuka, who is an ex biker gang leader. Known as the Conqueror of Shonan and also a virgin!
He has the dream to become a high school teacher, in fact, the greatest high school teacher in the whole of Japan.
His aim is not for the right reasons though, he wants have a loving teenage wife when he is an old man. That intro is literally the whole back story and yes it is a bit creepy, but once you get past the creepiness it is actually a really funny series.
Between the Manga and the Anime they both have their strengths and overall I love them equally.
Eikichi lands the job as the homeroom teacher for class 3-4 at the rather posh and famous Holy Forest Academy. The class is infamous and has a serious distaste for teachers.
The class crack on with plenty of tactics to try to get Eikichi to quit his job. Psychological warfare is their trademark for trying to get rid of their teachers.
Eikichi soaks this abuse up and takes it all on the chin. His fun loving nature starts to bring his students on side, add in his eccentric charm and character then all sorts of entertainment happens. From suplexing the schools Headteacher, to jumping off the school building to save one of his students.
I wholeheartedly recommend both the Manga and Anime. If you have already checked them out, please let me know what you think.
If not, then you are in for a top tier series and I say check it out now!
