I am interested in mostly GTO and Gokusen, mostly because I am the most familiar with them for having seen both anime. However, I would like to broaden my horizons. So please comment with your thoughts.
Now for some things that I forgot to mention about our first official meeting:
Gokusen is the live action drama of a woman who is the heir to become the next yakuza boss. However her true passion is to become a teacher. She reaches her dream by becoming a math and homeroom to the class 3-D at Shiroken High. However, things are not as they seem. 3-D is just a bunch of hooligans and deliquints who everyone believes will end up failing, dropping out, or being expelled. Can she handle it or will she be exposed? Who knows. Gokusen is a funny but serious at times drama. You will fall in love with it.
