Wait a sec. How can someone be unafraid to be hurt? This must be a joke right.
@@Zombihilanth everyone is afraid to be hurt, but not everyone has the guts to get hurt ;)
Its the willingness to open up and take the risk
Its annoying me that i can't find the chapter where he says that.
@@sloth2001 probably from when he was talking to the bitch that changes her hair color every fucking time,or from the last arc with the angels and shit. I don't really remember anymore, guess it's time to reread it.
the amount of people that actually took their profession as a teacher after watching this anime is really mind blowing
I will start in 2 months, I‘m excited.

My father's name is Othman and his friends call him GTO. When I was little I didn't know where did that name came from until he came home with a framed big-ass poster of Onizuka. From that time, I only knew that GTO stands for Great Teacher Onizuka and Great Teacher Othman. Around 7 years ago, I read the whole manga and realized that my father's teaching philosophy is very much like Onizuka's (not the negative side of course). Reading the manga made me so proud of being the son of GTO, Great Teacher Othman. He's still in service and will be retiring in a few years.
Kudos to your dad.
He's great than Onizuka already because he got a son :D
@@aquaken00 🗿dude...
ahahhaah nice story there XD
W dad 🗿
Yea this didn’t happen
Watched GTO as a teen... I'm now a High School teacher.

Hell yeah?
now you ARE onizuka
Did you ever go to a karaoke place finding your student's bully and when you found them you tie their hands up in the ceiling and you and your bullied student spank them in their behind?
Amazing! Your students must like you a lot!
Just watched tbe whole thing i say its beutiful maybe ill become a teacher
This video made me realize that Reigen is just Onizuka in a goofy art style
@DarnellOB98 that's actually not true. Onizuka is very mature individual he just lowers himself to students because his goal is to be a "Fun Teacher" but even then. He makes mistakes, and sometimes he forgets that he's only human literally risking anything and everything for his students.
Yeah, and reigen was my favourite anime character until i saw gto. Now its onizuka but reigen is a close 2nd
Yea I saw parts of Onizuka in him when I first saw him. Maybe some Gintama as well hidden in there. But yea they have similar outlooks on life and ways of dealing with things in common.
@@gimiked8685 i love gintama
I just realized how similar they are
Funny enough, I watched GTO anime last year and it was a very important factor leading to my decision to quit being a teacher.
I initially became a teacher mostly because i hated school and i wanted it to be different for the next generation. However, I realized I had nothing to teach the young about life as long as I didn't feel free and happy myself.
I'm now working on video games and i absolutely love what I do. I really believe I have more to offer to anyone this way!
How did you star working on video games after teaching?
@@oblivion_4014 I saved a bit of money before quitting. Then i learned coding on my own and got lucky enough to find a job in a small company
@@oblivion_4014 i mean you can do anything if you really put your mind to it
I was obsessed with this anime when I was 13-15 years old. It helped me though some really touch times between being bullied at school and an abusive home environment, Onizuka gave me hope. I fantasised all the time about having a teacher like him that would make school better, sadly it never happened but it still provided enough comfort that I managed to go through to the other side.
I had the same exact childhood as you which made me introverted and anti-social because of that! But somehow I'm recovering from that!

Isn't this the most obvious thing ever, why is it a quote?
@@user-ys8bs1jd2r you haven't personally read/watched it have you?
@@user-ys8bs1jd2r But some teachers still call their students trash.
It's obvious that you haven't watched GTO yet
As a 15-year-old with anxiety who is constantly concerned about what others think of her, reading GTO was the greatest decision I've ever taken for myself. It is literally instructive yet amusing. It has greatly aided me in getting on my knees and backing up anytime I feel like the universe is conspiring against me. I've experienced a lot of self-doubt and fear. I've had several breakdowns, and my trauma is still haunting me. However, GTO showed me that if I spend my life worrying about my past, I would never be happy. Every time I had a breakdown, I could hear Onizuka saying, "Goddamn bitch, we're literally atoms made of star dust, and you're worried about this shit? ? will it change if you cry? does it really matter?" and I laugh at myself for bitching about it HAHAHAHA
I love GTO
ooohh im also 15 and get anxious a lot imma read this and hope it does smth for me 🙏🙏
The quote : "Give a kid a smoke and he'll be happy for that entire day, teach a kid how to smoke and he'll be happy for his entire shortened life" was the reason I read the manga it's sequel and prequel too
This manga and anime is why I plan on becoming a teacher.
nate10000123 why would you wanna be broke to teach stupid kids
I also personally know a guy who became a math teacher after watching this anime.Good stuff! Remember that whatever you want to be,You need to strive for it no matter what.Teaching is a really hard profession,I hope you find happiness in educating young minds.Good luck and much love.
God Ussop depends on where you work as a teacher. Some teachers make a good living like 70k-100k. And as a teacher you can try and become a superintendent or principal of a school and make 200k+. Or just because a college professor and make big money.
hope u become a good teacher like MC.....but smarter
Good luck
PLOT TWIST: The shop owner that loaned you GTO WAS Onizuka
If only... if only
I wish
nah its danma
@@dylansumayo5231 lol 🤣🤣🤣
Possible, tht's onizuka behaviour right there
This anime taught me that there is good in literally everybody and you just don't judge anyone quickly.Atleast take 2 or 3 months to know them
Nah u never trully know
2 to 3 months is too long some people are genuinely bad people.
@@I_Ace give it a month then
What if you meet a pedophile
@@I_Ace sadly this is the reality
I grew up with a father that pretty much neglected and verbally abused me since adulthood, and somehow Onizuka, during adolescence, became somebody to look up to. I believe that at the time I needed so much to look up to somebody, that he embodied all the values, the personality I was looking for in a mentor, a father.
I am really grateful for animes to have been so useful throughout my childhood and adolescence and GTO definitely contributed to the person I am today.
You good now mate?
much better, thanks for asking! somehow, even a dreadful childhood is something that can make you a better person as soon as you learn to move over and forgive what's happened. tough to do, but well worth getting there :-) @@mytheenfathima5802
Same case for me. I do get it. Helped me so much.
Don't choose the friends that society says that it is the best for you. Choose the friends that feel right for you.
If society mocks you for your choice, just laugh it off. You have your own beliefs and they have theirs.
Just be yourself
true once u hang out and u feel comfortable without even thinking about insulting them thats usually how i feel theyre right for u
thats pretty much everyone yeah good tip tho thanks
Cool. Now I just hope I had some friends....

Whats this anime
Harpreet Singh it’s not an anime it’s a movie Midnight in Paris
That's a nice quote
Well said
As an artist this touched me. The communication of thoughts and feelings between the artist and the consumer is rarely spoken of..
Onizuka really teaches a lot. I had been confused and regretting every single thing I do because I get way too anxious about my future. Watching this did change my viewpoint. Honestly I am now trying every possible solution for it because I don't wanna give up. He just tells us to never stop being what we are and to never give up on someone else or yourself. Trust your guts. It might not always be pleasant but we could die trying.
I felt motivated
You're an inspiration
You should look into islam
There’s a comment with a lot likes saying that this character believes some people just don’t deserve love.
The Anime was actually the reason why I became a teacher. Seeing how a teacher was willing to step in when he was needed to help guide students, is what inspired me. I didn't have teachers like that. They let the bullying continue because they thought it was natural. But this taught me that I can suplex the bullies and the vice principle to get my point across about it needing to stop.
Same here. Although I didn't complete teacher training but continue to teach as a tutor because I feel the mainstream route I had available to me at the time restricted me from being the kind of teacher that I want to be. So inspirational this anime. I've been called radical for my beliefs on teaching, but no regrets. I see my students as my friends, and no one is gonna tell me otherwise, whoever they are.
Mate be honest you just wanted a young wife 😉
@@tomlohan5605 ahaha nah not the noncey route for me thank you
Hell yeah bro
I just wanted to say Im a big fan.
The fact that I’ve never heard about this anime until now is insane.
Dude, as the video say the anime sucks, read the manga it's amazing
Anime is still great IMHO. Manga is better no doubt about it (best manga I ever read). Important events of manga are there and If I may take one event that might be this one: The Vice Principal of Holy Forest Academy is tragicomic character but the last thing what he did absolutely melted my heart. That was heroic event. I don't want to spoil that.
So don't be scared to watch it and read it. 8,71 score on MAL and manga 8,87. That speaks for itself.
Definitely. This was on demand, back when satellite TV had limited choices. It was a great show
Same
true that
Discovering GTO was one of the best experiences in my life. My friends and I adore it.
From the man himself
@@infinitefather can you recommend any similar animes, with great character developments & cool classy old anime style????
I've had this video in my favorites for years and I still come back to it now. Usually around my yearly re-read through of GTO and whenever I try to talk people into giving it a chance. This manga and anime taught me how to just be when I was struggling and I think we al could learn a thing or too from Onizuka
“Be what you want to be, not what you should be” Damn that hit different.
I should be what I want to be.
I want to be a furry
It's stupid
i want to be assassin
What if some people depend on the way you should be and the way you want to be won't help them.
That's when the real struggle begins my friend.
Onizuka taught me about the strength of having life's principles. I was a 12 year old boy. Now I'm 32. Still I believe in him
You became Onizuka?
@@veobro1456 OMG thats an underrated comment
Whoa
I was a 15 year old girl, now Im 29. I saw Gto twice, and Im more than ready to go to read the manga! I confess that the action live version is kind of interestin but that is more for my love to the animation. Love the characters, love the mangaka!
I never seen gto but i think you guys have persauded me to rahzephon stuck with me pretty hard
I feel like crying, for some reason. I don't know how you managed to pull all the strings that I had attached to me, about life, about people, about anime, about all the things I believe to give myself a reason to do things in life. This video literally expressed the feelings I've had since childhood about all the things I do and the purpose behind them. It feels great to know that there are people like this who get it the same way I do, and are reaching out to everybody. I thank all the authors and creators who put all their effort in bringing out the most important and valuable lessons of life in the form of art and expression.
God i love the old school style anime and manga. It just had a different quality and feel to it. Something that will probably never be recreated, but that's what makes them so special. This one slid under the radar for me but i HAVE to check this one out. Thank you for sharing.
I was 16 when I started reading this. Right off the shelves in Waldenbooks mall because I never had any money. I was eventual asked to not come back by a certain employee that worked the weekday but I eventually found out his schedule and worked my way around it.

i always comeback to this video every year because of how good it is and every time i watch it i fall in love with GTO more and MORE! it was thanks to this video that i watched the GTO anime and it was also this video that made me read the manga! and it is also this video that inspired me to change and be more open and not be afraid of saying my feelings and doing what i really want just like Onizuka!
when u talked about how u had to change how u act to appeal to everyone resonated with me cause i felt that way too.... in a way i wish that i had watched this video when i was a teenager and i wish that i had read or watched GTO back then too, cause now i am a adult and i missed so many fun moments and only started to act more freely after becoming an adult but perhaps if i had acted more open just like onizuka i might of been much happier than i was at that time....
Just came back to rewatch this video after finishing the show and mannn was I sad after I finished it, it was awesome to watch so many people gravitate towards this goofy and crude teacher as the show went on and this video honestly couldn’t of put it any better. He taught me to live the way u want to live and be true to who you are regardless of what others may think. W video
Thats not the first time im here... what a great video.

Well said
Beautiful overview of GTO, first time ive watched it back then i was really invested to it that i kept watching all of the episodes of it, Onizuka definitely deserved the title Great Teacher, man is big inspiration when it comes to teaching you how to live, would’ve thought of being teacher if i have ended up watching GTO much more earlier
I only recently got around to finishing GTO and i was blown away, as somebody who works with young people now it really spoke to me on a deep level. Often kids just get disregarded or bastardised for how they act but there's often an underlying reason why and GTO really emphasised that as one of it's core messages. Of course it's dramatised for comedic effect but the undertones of being genuine, compassionate and willing to go that extra mile can make a profound impact. I can see why a lot of people who read/watch it in their formative years are inspired to go into education to be a positive influence, it really is that powerful.
Onizuka inspired me to become a teacher... and yes, I'm an actual teacher
Do you hang out at night clubs with your students without ever teaching them the subject you're supposed to teach?
@@arx3516 I actually have had a couple teachers just like that, now I understand where their inspiration came from lmao

This is what people that don’t watch anime don’t see.
The touching moments that have a place into your heart forever.
They think it’s just this weird cartoon form another country.
But it can be life saving, it can give you happiness.
It makes you show your true feelings and helps you through life.
cringe
The thing is though, a lot of people don’t take the lessons they learn and apply them. They just use Anime as escapism and take it far too seriously.
@@angelobarros3499 The only cringe thing here is the fact that you clicked on this video - probably watched it - then preceded to scroll down to the comments to reply with the statement, "cringe," when all you had to do was not click on the video to then be "OH-SO" mortified by the happiness that manga/anime brings into someone's life. The thing I am curious about is.. how did you come upon this video anyways.. if it was recommended then that must mean you've watched plenty of videos related to anime/manga. It sure does seem like you are one weird, comment-lurking hypocrite. Enjoy your "cringe" life fucking weirdo.✌
@@sirspeco
I think that he meant that the argument can literally be applied to any art which positively impacts one's life, but the post indicates that people who don't watch anime only consider it as "a weird cartoon." This is so close-minded that it breaks my heart, because a person which thinks like this is essentially doing what they assume to be spreading awareness about: assuming how a person thinks and acts by looking at a single trait.
In short, the post is fucking cringe. Seriously, it's the argumentative version punching yourself in the face, missing, then the fist hitting your wife, because you are a monster.
@@angelobarros3499 LMAOOO

@@earlyman7439 the original holds up, just watched it. I love it
As great as it could be... the very idea triggers Berserk 2016 flashbacks.
Sequel not remake, and no 14 days in Shonan doesn't cut it. Also they need to tie up all the romantic relationships rather than keeping em open ended.
I feel the same exact way… there are few mangas out there that taught me how to live. And I truly believe that anime/mangas greatly help to one’s education that can’t be acquire at school nor in your environment…. it’s hard to find someone who is into anime/mangas and is a bad person… those creation of the mind taught us more than what real life will ever be able to.
Great video, I’ll make sure to share it around.
Great view about life, i never thought about this, it gave me a completely new view towards manga, kudos to you bro.
Those inspiring words the part where "be true to your self and thats where the real friends come and what ever happens they stay by your side" actually made super much sense than just being fake to others, that part is inspiring..really thanks OniMaru really owe ya one :D.

Cold, much needed dose of reality.
Or it is better to put it this way
"past is a bunch of memories that sometimes takes form of thoughts and images. Which is nothing more than an experience. Like every other experience. So there's nothing to feel bad or good about it"
And I taught myself at the end of the video that I wasted my school life by being such a victim...partly because I was indoctrinated by the very catholic education I received, the only thing I did is playing Lego and now I’m a sad architecture student, I wished I had watched stuff like onisuka when younger but you are right, I should just stop thinking about my past and live without fear

I saw your video and read the whole manga in 3 days and wow. I wish I had a teacher and experience like that in school. It just reminded me that being real and authentic and taking on a positive mindset daily is so important. The characters were exceptional all the stories were meaningful and all the comedy was great. I will strive to be more like Onizuka in my life. I appreciate this video and I loved the manga. I highly recommend it to anyone who is feeling a little lost and need some great life lessons. After reading this I am sure anyone would do some self-reflection on their own life and strive to improve it and enjoy life to the fullest like Great Teacher Onizuka.
This is a real gem I needed this thanks

@Paulo Sad? Why?
For me, naruto taught me to live my life. I couldn't speak as a child since I was always in hospital and had speech therapy lessons to improve my cognitive and motor function skills. I would always stay quiet since I couldn't form words. I couldn't take my SATS exam during primary since I was seen as too stupid to even do so. That's when I got into anime, I felt a connection with naruto since everyone looked down upon him and his loneliness. My teacher said to look for apprenticeships since university wasn't an option. I was always in the lowest sets for all subjects, called stupid by my peers. I goofed around and became the class clown. However naruto taught me to believe in myself and don't let others dictate my future. I graduated from a university which is ranked 113 in the world. I'm 23 and now live in London for my graduate job. If you're reading this my point is to always believe in yourself no matter what people say. Destiny is what you make it!

@@hamzahussein824 yup same :)
This has been at the top of my watch later list for a while, time to finally watch it
GTO and Golden Boy are life changing stories that everyone should see at least once
Just what I was thinking of.
Golden Boy was mind-blowing and I never knew about GTO before this video, but I saw many familiarities/similarities between them.
Any anime similar to gto n golden boy? I just watched golden boy last year n feel in love with it. These both anime feel totally different from anime these days
Study study study
Spoilers for Golden Boy. I highly doubt this theory is what they intended, but every episode the narrator would say that he would possibly save the world. And the last episode is about saving an anime production...was that a meta commentary on the fact that the show itself was an anime? And by saving the anime, he saved his own world?
Sorry to disappoint you but Golden Boy manga... is just DAMNED
Golden Boy is best boy
One point you missed the chance to talk about here is the main lesson of Onizuka: everyone deserves a second chance and your future isn’t set in stone.
For those who don’t know it, Onizuka was originally featured in another manga as a side character, a one off story guy, a low life delinquent with little to no future or expectations in life, and GTO tells the story of his second chance in life, that past is implied in many of the behaviors and attitudes he shows when in danger, the disregard for his own life of his old delinquent self is still there and he puts his life in the line over and over again.
I watched this series back in 2006 when, funny enough, I had just started my career as a teacher and it helped me realize how clueless teenagers are and to remember how my life was back then. Overall, I think it helped me to become the teacher my students needed at the time, and to earn their respect not by my tittle but by becoming a reliable partner and guide on their journey. I think every teacher should watch this series.
Awesome perspective! Thanks for sharing. I never really got into Shonan Junai Gumi, so I didn’t get a chance to see it in that light. I really just put the focus on what it meant for me at the time when I was just a young teenager. So this only helps to give it more meaning for me. Thanks!
Bruh in Shonan Junai Gumi he's one of the two (if not the one) main characters what you talking about "one off character"?
I think people also need to realize what a second chance really means and to understand people will fuck up royally serval time before actually learning their lesson witch could take awhile. Second chances are not making a mistake once and fixing it its truly understanding the mistake and changing yourself.
Correct, in the end, isn't it teaching is not all about knowledge and skill? The greatest teacher is the one can point out the way for students to be themself.
i wish teachers like this would exist
This Video is great. GTO is great. I do watch this video almost every 6 months. Whenever I feel low. It always reminds me to face lives challanges head on, instead of running from them. For that reminder, packaged into a video, I really want to give you all my thanks👍
amazing videos! it truly captures the way an anime/manga can change your life forever, Naruto has always been the manga that has helped in my darkest times when I didn't know who I was as a teen then with my best friend and father passing away the only thing that would go through my head was Naruto's determination and his attitude to keep trying no matter how hard life gets. Believe it!

now thats the anime that taught me how to live
cowboy bepop sucks
@@ridelbaker4607 nice bait if not then you have shit taste
luhoiud Ewfewe now that's a pure badass anime
@@thatdudeguy7176 i think so its too western it just feel like im watching a typical hollywood movies if its a live action movie its probably not gonna sell well theres a lot movies that sell the same thing,
I just miss being 13 and constantly "Anime n chill", now that i am 19 life is a fcking race :/.
Emmanuel Araya it gets worse homie
Take your time and try things out, find what you enjoy and want to do (and what you DON'T want to do and enjoy)
Since 13 watching anime and now im 19 and its almost the same
Bro if your 19 and your life is a race your doing life wrong. Life is a bitch when you start taking on responsibilities, live free until then
Emmanuel Araya Lol buddy that race just started for u n tbh it’s gonna be slower at that age than any other
This video made me cry a lot...I'll forever love this manga because I read it when i was at a really low point in my life and it taught me to live to the fullest..
But it makes me so nostalgic and envious. I wish I lived in the GTO world as Onizuka's student.
I've finally gotten around to watching this video. After I had heard so much about GTO, when I discovered this video a long while ago, I decided it's finally time to read the manga and get back to this video once I'm done. (Which I'm not, but I'm about 150 chapters in, which is good enough for me.)
Hearing you talk about it, I feel like I should have discovered GTO during a more formative age. I sure could have used that lesson of "be yourself and screw everybody who doesn't like it" when I was a kid. (Although I hopefully wouldn't have turned out like Onizuka...)
this video is seriously too underrated and the lack of recognition towards GTO is saddening. This manga was one reason why I was able to move on with life
Lack of recognition? GTO (and its sequels/prequels) is one of the most famous manga/anime/live action drama ever.
Randall Flagg Well that would make sense I guess. GTO felt like it has its own league in anime if that makes sense. It’s so good yet I’m not sure what else to compare with it. Old but Gold (somethin like that lol)

Once again you are everywhere
once again, youtube comments make me sigh and close the app
Thank u for making this video
i watched it so many times at so many stages because things have been really hard for me. Now, again after so many setbacks in my life this video again appeared in my feed. This video always encourages me and this time i will def finish reading the GTO manga
I just found this video, and the core message has left a profound mark on me. Giving me a realization that I have pondered over. Amazing content, even better perspective.
dude, i adore the self reflection you’re able to make from this media. for that, you’re awesome!
This anime taught me to hold my heart in one hand and my guts in the other.
I'm not the best guy, I suck at communication and I'm kind of paranoid because I don't trust anyone. Anime like this makes me feel like I should keep walking you know; maybe one day, I'll be the cool big bro I've always wanted to be.
You'll get there. Keep at it!
that's exactly the point
Ya I agree with above comment, you are already cool man
Solid
pretty sad lol
I'm definitely cheking it out! Both the manga and anime. Thank you for your great video!
Definitely gonna go rewatch GTO now. Thanks for taking my week up 🥲
Oh damn! I remember that manga! It's fucking amazing, there's also this other manga about a suicidal teacher that just couldn't catch a break, and he somehow ends up helping all his problem students.
sayonara zetsubou sensei?
If that's the same one as the tentacled alien guy teacher I've been missing out
@@xnrivudxkskalflvk4075 Lol, no that's Koro-sensei from Assassination Classroom - also a good show/manga you should check out.
Wait what manga are you talking about
What manga
This is what inspired me to be a teacher and many years later I finally made it
Congrats ❤
Is it just like what you expected??
Cool
I'm also curious about how it's going for you
Manny Thelazyguy doubt
A splendid video essay! I wish I had your editing skills!
This is so amazingly written.
*"Golden Boy"* and *Great Teacher Onizuka"* despite beng Comedic have stood the test of time and are still bringing meaningful thoughts to the minds of its viewers.
Dont forget gintama
I just finished golden boy in one day. Golden memories.....
