Great Teacher Onidzuka: Anime vs. Manga
Posted: Wed Jun 04, 2003 11:01 am
Hey all,
I just rented DVD 2 of GTO and I wanted to comment on one or two differences... The stories are pretty similar, but they really messed up with Kunio and his back story. In the anime, they have his father just running out on Kunio, when in the manga, (jeez, I hope I am remembering this correctly - I translated this stuff a while ago) his father was in a gang, and died that way...
At least his mom is still a crane operator, and not a truck driver like in the drama. heh.
But she was cool in the drama too though, so I don't mind that as much.
They also left out some funny stuff with Fukuroda, and I noticed that they didn't translate the pun/joke on Fukuroda's name (the students always called him Hokuroda - "mole" - since he had a big one on his face.)
Oh, and they never translated the really funny "Korosu" (I'm gonna kill ya!) kanji on Kunio's face when his veins started popping out. heh.
fugu
