Former motorcycle gang member Onizuka wanted to continue his life of thrills and excitement by becoming...a teacher? It may not be quite as thrilling as he'd hoped, but it's also more challenging than he ever could have imagined. Onizuka might think his new teaching gig is a great way to meet girls, but deep down, he also thinks it's a great way to make a difference. He may be underestimated because of his checkered past, but what his colleagues don't realize is that this is what sets Onizuka apart; his street-wise style can get through to young people the way no one else can.
