i heard that the manga's REALLY good but when i looked at it, i saw it was rated for older teens so i avoided reading it. i heard the anime's cleaner than the manga but i'm not sure so i wanted to check with you guys before i tried it out.

Great Teacher Onizuka

ANN wrote:Onizuka is an ex-biker and gang leader who has one goal, to become the greatest teacher. He learns of the power and respect possible as an intern teacher, using his strength and connections to get his students to respect him. Now, graduated, he gets a job at a prestigious private school to handle their 'problem class' that made the past few teachers quit. He must handle a different sort of trouble when the trouble makers include some of the smartest kids in Japan who preffer a more cerebral approach to torturing their teacher. Onizuka must slowly win his students over and deal with their mistrust of teachers while handling the distrust of his fellow teachers.

It has a very high rating from most sites. And indeed, it gets it's high marks for some very good character development. I am about halfway through the series right now. I also would rate this one at least 16+ for language, sexual innuendo and discussions plus violence. There is some nudity from behind mostly with the main character Onizuka. Definitely for a mature audience.

I think the anime is for older teens too(not only for fan-services... some scenes are really strong). Not bad, but only if you're old enough for standing cynical-perverse japanes studens

yeah. that was what i was thinking when i looked at the book. the story seems really good but, it's still geared towards more mature audience. maybe when i'm older i might try it out. thanks guys.
