although it's been out since about 1998, the GTO live-action drama (the jap one, there's a chinese one too) seems to be very popular. i've only seen a few eps, but straightaway you can see how they're changed it and taken things out, to make it more realistic and film-able XD the live action GTO is still pretty good!
i love that they worked to keep the show's trademark onizuka personality intact, whereas i don't like what they've reduced the fuyutsuki to. instead of being the kind, earnest person trying with all her effort to become a great teacher, in the live-action... she never even wanted to be a teacher! and only does it because she couldn't become a stewardess... a stewardess! she's also quite shallow and 2-faced in my mind... -_-
otherwise, the live-action aspires to be just as kooky as the manga or anime. what do other people think of it?
