Great Teacher Onizuka
Onizuka, a former biker and gang leader, has one ambition: to become the best teacher. As an intern teacher, he discovers the power and respect that are possible, using his strength and connections to acquire the respect of his students. Now that he has graduated, he obtains a position at a prominent private school to handle the "problem class" that caused the previous teachers to resign. When the troublemakers include some of the brightest children in Japan who take a more intellectual approach to tormenting their teacher, he must deal with a different type of trouble. Onizuka must gradually win over his students and overcome their skepticism of instructors, while also overcoming the suspicion of his fellow educators.
