Based on a manga by Kozueko Morimoto, "Gokusen" has already had two previous seasons. The first, in 2002, averaged ratings of 17.4%, while the 2005 sequel averaged ratings of 28.0%.

The third series will premiere in April on NTV, though the specific time slot has not yet been announced. Casting for the students will be decided around the end of this year.


Note: Yukie Nakama, Namase Katsuhisa(School Vice Principal), and Utsui Ken(3rd Generation Oedo Yakuza Boss) has already confirmed for their roles for part 3.
I wonder if any JE guys will star in this drama? Who knows, but I'm looking forward to this.
