Product Details

Product Description

From Amazon.com

Eikichi Onizuka is the teacher in every parent's nightmares, which may be the reason so many ninth-graders adore him. Built like a brick sushi bar, the 22-year-old Onizuka is a second-degree black belt in karate, a former biker, a foul-mouthed chain-smoker, and a lecher. But he's fanatically devoted to the idea of being a teacher and cares passionately about his students. Onizuka administers a broadly comic mixture of tough love and Clint Eastwood-style vigilante justice, which is just what's needed. Every student at Holy Forest Middle School seems to be a misfit, a thug, a bully, and/or the product of an unhappy home. Onizuka's actions bring him into conflict with parents, rival teachers, the PTA, various watchdog groups, and the sniveling vice-principal, none of whom can stop him.

Tomoko is being tormented by an ex-friend, so Onizuka helps her win the local beauty pageant--while ogling her breasts. When bullied nerd Noboru attempts suicide, Onizuka saves his life, trashing the vice-principal's treasured car in the process. He breaks down the wall that divides Mizuki and her parents--figuratively and literally--and is rewarded with her panties. Each act of kindness or courage wins a few more students to his side--and infuriates his enemies. Although the animation is often crude, with distorted drawings substituting for changes of expression, GTO exerts a gross-out, slapstick appeal. It's a long way from To Sir, with Love. (Rated 16 and older: sexual humor, profanity, nudity, violence, tobacco and alcohol use)--Charles Solomon

5.0 out of 5 stars GTO is the best, Sep 18 2011
This review is from: GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka: Ultimate Box Set 1 (DVD)
GTO is one of the best animes ever and i really enjoyed the dub as well it was great and really well made imo don't listen to all the little dub haters some of us don't want to sit there are read words on TV all night long if i wanted to read it i would of read the Manga(thinking of doing just that as well i really enjoyed GTO)

Once in a while you come across a great show and it just takes you by surprize only 2 animes has ever really done that to me sure there are alot of great animes but but the best i have ever seen and i have seen alot of animes in dub and sub also read some mangas but the best i have ever saw are GTO and Hajime no ippo. Truely worth ever penny and i hope some day they make more episodes the story is far from being over.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Teacher Onizuka, April 19 2004
This review is from: GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka: Ultimate Box Set 1 (DVD)
I can say without a doubt that GTO is my favorite anime of all time. It tells the story of Eikichi Onizuka, an ex-biker and virgin, and his quest to become the greatest teacher alive. But to reach his goal he'll have to get by his proclaimed adversary the vice-principal, bullies, classroom terrorists, and the mob. All while trying to instill life lessons upon his students and find himself a girlfriend.

To me GTO has it all: a great story, excellent character development, life applicable lessons, and enough laughs to having you rolling on the floor. If you haven't picked this up you're doing yourself a great injustice.*HIGHLY RECOMMENDED*

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb Series, Shame About the Dub., April 11 2004
This review is from: GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka: Ultimate Box Set 1 (DVD)
I first caught this series on Internet TV in Japanese Sub.
I loved it so bought the box set.
The production quality of the set is good, though the extras are hit and miss - The outtakes (disk 5) are funny.
BUT, the dub is Awful, worth maybe 3 stars.
I've heard these actors in other series, where they are ok, but they don't suit GTO, with Onisuka being particularly bad in the dub.
Buy this and ignore the Dub, just watch the Sub. I'll be buying the next Box set on release.
