1. Hmm [Rating: ?/10]
I'm currently watching this. Haven't finished the first episode yet, but the storyline's old, been there, done that already: a teacher inspiring a group of underachieving and troublesome students. I'll reserve judgment until I see two or three more episodes.

2. An excellent drama [Rating: 9/10]
This drama takes an old cliche-- about a bunch of bad, rebel schoolboys, and their meeting up with a teacher who inspires them to stop being bad. The difference between this and other such dramas (such as Gokusen 3) is that this drama has been very well-scripted, with exceptionally fine acting and also very good direction. The story is not your typical, run-of-the-mill teacher-wins-over-students.

The major characters are well-rounded out and these schoolboys are not pretty boys-- they are the bad, bad ones I remember reading about in Slam Dunk. Their teacher is hilarious, more than anything else, although he comes equipped with an infectious smile. The script is tight, the story is fast-paced with enough turns, and best of all, the story has a grittiness and reality about it that hits pretty hard.

I strongly recommend watching this.

Just started watching it and I already love Kawato sensei. He's always over the top and an emo when it comes to his students. Loving the first baseball themed jdorama I've ever watched. It helps that its like ikemen paradise part 2 in this series.

This will be a cool series. I hope that the special effects in it is the same as in H2 or even better.

in the middle of watching. from 6 episodes I've watched, this can be said to be one of my fav of this season. Teacher-student drama is old, but this come out really likable and awesome. I didn't expect to like it so much. I hope it'll progress even better because I really want to give it a 9.
