Gokusen movie
OK, so the movie brings the usual Gokusen type of things: fun, fights, misunderstandings, Yankumi vs. Sawatari Kyoto, etc. and the big finale. The basic is to show the guys from the 3 schools (Shirokin, Kurogin, Akado) get together, and hear the thing we already got to know in the 2nd season with Kuma. Those, who need Yankumi, can come to her any time, no matter how long ago they graduated, they'll still stay her students.
For me it was a bit confusing that Sawamura Ikki, who played a police officer in the 1st season was now playing the bad guy.
I was happy to see some of the old bunch, Mokomichi, Teppei, Narimiya and Oguri Shun. <3 But sadly not all together, and their scenes were really so few, and mostly meaningless. They used quality actors for their faces... T___T
The only good point part was as the 6 guys from last year's graduation hear a rumor that Yankumi is walking around town with a handsome guy. Ok, it turns out to be Odagiri Ryu (Kamenashi Kazuya)... but from that scene I could image such an awesome ending! Can't you?
It would be right at the end, a re-make of the same scene, the students begin to talk again about a rumor of Yankumi walking with a handsome man. And then we would actually see the pair - even if only from behind, with the unmistakable hair-style... hand in hand. Maybe on the guy's shoulder a bag, with Africa written on it... *grin*
...
It really would had helped to get the story end the same way as the manga did. I still can't understand what kind of problem the studio had against a romantic relationship between Sawada Shin and Yankumi. I wouldn't even think of something like a kiss, but at last some hint that they get together. And so it hurts much more that they made the last final end like this.
