It has been almost two years since I become acquainted with Gokusen and I still adore the pairing between Sawada Shin and Yamaguchi Kumiko…just cannot get enough of them. I truly hope that Morimoto-sensei will continue their love story and fill the void for us hardcore fans. Though, I am grateful of the short continuation which she had provided so far. Below are a few more favorites that I wanted to share (in no specific order), let’s spread the Shinkumi rabu rabu:

This year’s 13th issue of Shueisha’s You magazine has announced on Monday that Kozueko Morimoto’s Gokusen high school comedy manga will return in the next two issues, which will ship on July 1 and 15. Morimoto had ended the manga in 2007 after seven years, but she is revisiting the story to mark the July 11 opening of Gokusen the Movie. The movie will serve as the theatrical finale to the three live-action television drama series based on the manga. The upcoming two-part manga side story will center on Kumiko “Yankumi” Yamaguchi — the high school teacher with yakuza ties — and her student Shin Sawada. ~ From ANN

Kyaaa~~~ I cannot tell you how excited and happy I am, Morimoto-sensei! Sawada-kun and Yankumi, such long awaited chapters! Hopefully, their romantic starts to blossom and fill the void from the movie (yes, I’m still a bit disappointed ). Just cannot wait for the first chapter to be released, July is definitely going to be one wonderful month!

Just watched the new trailer and I am very, very disappointed. I was happy to see that Shun Oguri and Mocomichi Hayami have been added to the cast along with a few other former students from Season One, however, where is Sawada Shin? It just wouldn’t be Gokusen without Yankumi’s #1 student. He is the one that I want to return the most!!

I know Jun-kun is extremely busy now, focusing on his drama and Arashi’s 10th year anniversary. I absolutely love him for that, but Sawada Shin is an extremely important character in the history of Gokusen, he needs to appear. I’m truly hoping that he can make a cameo, even a mere 5 seconds would be wonderful. Maybe they will surprise us, let’s keep our fingers crossed.

Love the action and Kame-sensei, will definitely see it, but I still long for Sawada!!

Looks like Gokusen will be going to the big screen starring the third season cast. I had high hopes when the heading was first read at Tokyograph, excepting they would have Sawada Shin return. Nope, really wish that was the case. Season one was awesome with Jun-kun (the reason why I adore him so much ). Season two was okay with Kame and Jin, but cannot compared to the first one. I guess there is still hope, maybe a season four with the returned cast. Let’s keep our fingers-crossed. hehe…
