    Hilarious even just with Subs

    Wow, I am very impressed with this show. I laughed non-stop during the first episode and nothing was lost in translation, thanks fansubbers!!!

    Anyways, the actress that plays the teacher is so funny, pretty and nerdy at the same time. She is awesome in her role.

    The premise: A 23 year old pretty girl/lady becomes a new teacher at a highschool in Japan. Her class is the most rebellious in the school and notorious for picking on their teachers. She is full of hope and determination to teach them well much to their annoyance and hostility.

    Unbeknownst to them, she is actually the grand daughter of the head of a powerful Yakuza clan and could easily threaten them.

    Very funny stuff especially every time they play the Yakuza samurai theme lol If you can find it, definitely check it out for some serious laughs.

    Gokusen

    Gokusen is really a nice drama I love it but the most loved season is 1 because in this sawada shin is there.kuma is also loved character in this series if shin was there in two more seasons than they will also my favourite but I love season 1.yamaguchi sensei is a independent woman she is really very nice I love her character too. It is based on a story of school teacher yankumi who is 4 generation boss of yakuza but she wants to become a school teacher and she became she was teacher of 3-D this class students were very naughty but she handles them. Her principal knows that she is boss of yakuza so he appointed her to teach 3-D class.

    I loved this movie!

    When my sister brought this home, I was like "Another Anime?". But it was live action. One which I never looked or watched before. I really enjoyed this one though, mainly because it was different from other stories. I'm not a very big Anime fan, but this was an exception. I cried in some parts, the actors were a little goofy at times, and it really shows a different side in people.

    I just ordered my copy and watched it. I don't like to watch movies again, but there are a few that I wouldn't mind re-watching. Gokusen is one of them. I also ordered the second set which I can't wait to watch, but I'm waiting to watch and finish the Special episode.

    I would totally recommend this to anyone who's looking for a break from chick flicks and/or love stories!

    Gokusen on T.V.

    This is a teacher-student relationship between Kumiko "Yankumi" Yamaguchi (Yukie Nakama) and Shin Sawada (Jun Matsumoto). Yankumi was the homeroom teacher of a class of delinquents in the Shirokin Gakuin, a school exclusively for boys. Yankumi has a secret. She was hiding her true identity from her students and co-teachers. She is the heiress to the Oedo Yakuza clan. But Shin Sawada, a very handsome and intelligent guy, suspected that she was no ordinary teacher. So since the first day of the school, he became interested to her. Find out if there could be a love affair between them. Because Yankumi had a crush on someone else. Then find if Shin Sawada will fight for their feelings at the end. Hope you like the story, because it's excellent for me!!!
