Topic	Mac Ranks 111+31 User-Nominated Anime - The Rankings!
Mac Arrowny 09/24/18 6:14:36 PM #218:	61. Great Teacher Onizuka https://myanimelist.cdn-dena.com/images/anime/13/11460l.jpg @LordoftheMorons This is another of those examples where I read the manga after the anime (the other way around is pretty uncommon for me, and I dont think it applies to anything on this list) and found the former to be a rather superior experience. I did, of course, enjoy the show when I watched it (hence its high-ish ranking), but the last three episodes sucked and the execution generally wasnt quite on the level as the mangas (plus I love the arc after the anime ends). Anyway, lets talk about the good parts. Onizuka is an awesome protagonist. Basically what you think all the teacher side characters in anime actually should be like actually stopping bullying and not letting the students get up to ridiculous antics. Hes a young guy himself, so he still relates to them pretty well, and actually seems to agree with them on a lot of the things they get up to, and helps them such a way that it actually has a lasting impact. Feels kinda like the ideal teacher for a class like this (except for the education part, of course). Basically all the students are excellent characters too. A ton of them go through real development as the series progresses, and most of them have likable quirks and problems. The most villainous ones (who are major characters) are among the best, since its cool to have them (temporarily) defeat Onizuka, and eventually become good guys. Naturally, the highlight is Urumi, who I like even more than Onizuka. Her schemes are the best, shes not as mean-spirited as some of them, her intelligence is awesome, and once shes a good guy shes the coolest of the lot. A lot of the plans to fix the other students end up coming from her as well. Its also fun how she ships herself with Onizuka, though the author doesnt seem to want him to end up in a real romance for whatever reason. Anyway, the series is just plain great, all in all. Read the manga instead if you can, but the anime is very good too. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. <cite>Mac Arrowny posted [p:909377553] in Mac Ranks ...
