"Great Teacher Onizuka" (1999) = 7.6
You know, the problem with watching anime from 10+ years ago is that the Japanese voice actors are usually pretty bad, and the english dub is often just as bad. In this case, the dub was better (the voice acting was slightly better, and the translation was far superior to that of the english subtitled version).
So, GTO: the Great Teacher Onizuka. He definitely earned his title-with 43 episodes; he took his time, but still, he earned it. GTO is a great feel good anime: there's not a lot of thought provocation, or complex plot lines, or brilliant narrative, just a really fun, simple format that worked for 43 whole episodes, and definitely could've kept going. The best way I could convey my feelings about this anime would be with a silent, ear-to-ear smile and a playful shrug. GTO is a tentatively lighthearted, positively jovial, and unrelentingly playful anime that will surely put a smile on your face.
