GTO Revival (GTOリバイバル)

Good morning!

Let's make today a good day too.

To my beloved wife.

June is almost over.

Are you taking care of your health?

As for me, the other day, I was framed for something I didn't do

and almost got fired, but…

I was saved, thanks to the help of a fellow teacher.

So don't worry.

Happy bday.

-Congratulations! -Congratulations!

Congratulations!

Hey!

Already at it this early?

-Onicchi! -Good morning!

Good morning!

Huh? Momocchi, you joined the Drill Team?

Only one more person left until we can become official!

Man, I worked really hard, you know.

Don't act like you gathered all of us by yourself!

Hey, don't walk while staring at your phone.

Follow the rules, or you'll get your phone confiscated.

Okay.

Talk to me if you have any problems. That's why I'm here, after all.

So enthusiastic, Mr. Murayama.

I'm their counselor, after all.

Come on, we have to head to class.

Okay!

-You practicing drills? -Yes.

Teach me too.

As for the answer to your homework, "What makes a Great Teacher"…

It's been a while since she texted me first.

What? It's just my mom…

ALOHA AZUSA TOLD ME SHE WENT BACK HOME

"What are you doing? You made your wonderful wife cry."

No! I'm the one who wants to cry!

Excuse me…

Principal, is something wrong?

No…

I was just admiring your bike.

Right?

Look right here, see? It has my name engraved on it.

It really does!

Also, check this out. Can you see?

The "Z2" marking right here.

It's authentic…

-Shouldn't you get going soon? -What?

-The staff meeting is about to start. -Oh, shoot! See you!

That man is a mystery.

He's over 50,

so why is he always fooling around like a child?

As for me, I hit retirement age last year,

but my company appointed me Principal of this school they manage.

Every day, I'm faced with puzzling questions.

This man, the Vice Principal, told me…

"You don't need to do anything, Principal."

I don't even know

what my job is supposed to be.

Is something the matter, Principal?

No, I was just wondering what you were talking about.

I was just talking about why our school is so wonderful.

Is that so?

The greatness of our Seishin High

lies in our cutting-edge classes, wonderful learning environment,

and the overflowing passion of all the teachers,

especially me!

Don't you agree, Principal?

You're right.

Every time I try to say something…

this man interrupts me,

causing my presence at this school to get fainter every day.

Therefore, moving forward, I ask all of you to act as one, with discipline…

So noisy. What's with you?

Sorry!

I dreamed I got good ratings from the entire class.

But maybe it's not a dream?

Huh? Come on…

Still only four good ratings. No change at all…

Among us teachers, there is one unacceptable exception,

but my trust in all of you will not waver in the slightest.

It's okay, Mr. Onizuka.

If you keep trying, one day your dream will come true.

You're so positive, Mr. Murayama.

I'm so glad I got you as one more ally in the staff room!

One more? Who is the other one?

It's you, who else, Ms. Kashiwabara?

Sorry, I have no intention of helping you.

You're being cold again…

Let's do our best today!

Ryunosuke, who were you talking to?

Oh… no one!

More importantly…

Take a look at this.

There's been a new post by someone in your class.

THIS SCHOOL IS BORING, WHY DON'T WE QUIT?

So that girl earlier was your informant?

Forget about that!

You should be careful. We have parent-teacher meetings coming up soon.

Well, it'll be fine.

Say what you want, but everyone in my class is a good kid.

Still, if anything happens, it might affect your summer bonus.

I'll be careful. Okay?

All right!

Today,

you are a perfect number. All 28 of you are present.

Huh?

Kotone, do you finally feel like giving me a good rating?

Sorry. I'm still not entirely convinced by your methods.

Don't say that. What's the problem, anyway?

You should trust me! Don't call the school boring.

What?

Did someone say that?

No, not really.

Mr. Onizuka, may I share the announcement?

Sorry. Go ahead.

We have parent-teacher meetings starting next week,

so please talk to your parents and let us know your preferred dates.

Before that, I want to know your planned career paths,

so starting today, I'll be hearing from each of you.

Why do we have to do that?

Can't we just discuss them during the meeting?

I mean, what if we haven't planned a career path yet?

Then just tell me you don't have one.

Knowing how you feel beforehand

will make it easier for me when talking to your parents.

That's right, Ms. Kashiwabara and I are on your side, after all.

Hey, you always mess up at the same part.

Right, Momocchi?

You're always laughing!

Hey, Wataru!

What?

Why not eat with us?

You can also join our team as the fifth member!

Sorry, I'm not interested in that kind of thing.

I've been wondering this for a while now…

Every day at lunchtime, he disappears somewhere by himself.

Come to think of it, I've never seen Wataru eating lunch.

Maybe he's doing something shady.

Should I tail him?

Stop it.

What do you want?

N-Nothing.

I'm sorry!

SCHEDULED DATES FOR THE PARENT-TEACHER MEETINGS

So, what are your plans as of now?

I'm aiming for a recommended admission.

Me too!

By the way, what did Yuukichi say?

I dream big. I want to go to Stanford!

Humanities. A public university if possible.

Sciences. I'm aiming for Tokyo U.

I'm fine with any school that will accept me…

It's like I'm going from the J-League to the Premier League.

I haven't thought about it.

I haven't decided yet. I'm considering various options.

Wataru, I bet you're aiming for a top university!

He hasn't decided whether to go into science or humanities yet.

I'm quitting.

What? Will you not take entrance exams?

I'm not talking about that.

WITHDRAWAL NOTICE

What?

You can't just suddenly hand me this.

That's right. What is your reason?

It's this…

THIS SCHOOL IS BORING, WHY DON'T WE QUIT?

Did you post this?

No, but I've been thinking the same thing for a while.

Being at this school isn't fun, and it's a waste of time.

Don't say that. Our class is a perfect number, after all.

What?

But I thought you'd support us, no matter what?

Besides,

in this era, there are other paths besides going to school.

Well, that might be true, but…

-But, you know, my bonus… -What?

-No, it's nothing. -Do your parents know about this?

It has nothing to do with them. It's my problem.

Hey, Wataru! Hold up!

It's pointless to try to stop me.

Why did he suddenly decide to do this?

I have no idea at all.

Could it be bullying or something?

I don't think it's that.

Are you sure?

What?

Bullying or cliques aren't really a problem in our class yet.

Maybe he lost motivation?

Some are at the top of their class in middle school,

but their ranks drop in high school.

I don't think it's that either. He studies even during breaks.

Then, is there a problem at home?

I guess that's the only possibility left.

You did contact the guardians, right?

Well, about that…

I've been trying for a while now, but no one's answering.

What she said.

How pathetic.

It's almost as if you are Ms. Kashiwabara's assistant.

Well, I thought the same thing.
