Gokusen 3 Announced

Bah! I don’t remember much about Gokusen except that Jun Matsumoto was great in season 1 and I felt gypped when he didn’t appear in season 2 which I haven’t watched yet. According to Sugoi Stuff, there’s going to be a Gokusen 3.

NTV will roughen up its Spring drama showcase with the triquel of its popular school drama - Gokusen.

Nakama Yukie will reprise her role for the third time as Yamaguchi Kumiko a.k.a. Yankumi - the granddaughter of a Yakuza boss turned high school Math teacher.

About 600 young actors initially auditioned for the various roles that will comprise Gokusen 3’s unruly class. It was trimmed down to 300 for the interview. The following six would play the lead protagonists (or rather, Yankumi-antagonists):

From left to right: Takaki, Miura H., Ishiguro, Nakama, Kiriyama, and Miura S.

Takaki Yuya (of Hey! Say! JUMP) will play the lead. He will be joined by fellow JE boys Nakama Junta and Kiriyama Akito of the group, B.A.D..

The other three are Miura Haruma (as Shiraishi Ryo in Binbo Danshi), Ishiguro Hideo (as Yabuki Taku in Gokusen 2), and new comer Shohei Miura.

Gokusen is based on an equally popular manga of the same title and was created by Morimoto Kozueko .

Most likely I’ll eventually watch this but I still think the series went downhill when Jun left.

    uhh nozomi, your typing hurts my eyes.

    I’d have to agree with you, Dorama, I not feeling too good about this sequel. But since Indiana jones 4 is coming out this summer, i decided to be more open minded.

    Plus, I’m waay to old for these guys, well, the same age. But it doesn’t feel the same as i did when i watched matsujun, must be the older guy thing?

    or that i’m growing up and these guys still look youngish to me..

    So no, i’m not as excited as the tweenies.

    I’ve already watched gokusen3. Yay! Its cool lyk d other 2 seasons. Howevr, its kinda o.A too coz there’s handfyt on each episode and yankumi’s always involve on d fyt. Unlyk b4 dat she jst let her students finish d fyt and jst scare d bad guys. And the whole class are always together 2 help one of them. Looks impossible 2 happen! Niwayz, its still good and i’ll still w8 4 d next season.
