Overview
Great Teacher Onizuka (GTO) revolves around an eccentric, yet mischievous teacher who is not afraid of brazenly admitting to being a pervert. At 22-years-old, Eikichi Onizuka represents everything that contradicts and challenges the foundations of the educational system. His methods are considered bizarre and often dangerous. Despite this, Onizuka manages to earn his students' trust and respect one-by-one while simultaneously teaching them life lessons.

You know why they call these sunflowers? It's because no matter what the time of day you look at them, they're always facing the sun. When the sun's in the east, the flowers point east. When the sun's in the west, the flowers point west. They're like little yellow suns themselves, always looking for their parent sun in the sky. And as long as the sun is shining, each one is never alone and never sad and never cries. That's why this garden is such an ideal place to visit when you're feeling down. The sunflowers never fail to remind us there's always a reason to smile.
