The top-rated TV drama series GOKUSEN is finally coming to the silver screen!!

Introduction :
WelcomeThe drama series made its sensational debut in 2002 with a mega-hit 2nd series following in 2005 and returned even more powerful than ever last year as a 3rd series. The 3rd series was selected as the best-rated TV drama in 2008 with an average viewer rating of 22.8%. The film will be the completion of the title.
The story of the series is about a young woman, Kumiko “Yankumi” Yamaguchi living in the world of Yakuzas as the 4th generation heir of the Oedo Family. She is self-sacrificing to protect the weak, tough at fighting and firmly believes in the importance of friendship, dreams and family as she teaches and advises punks as a hot-blooded high school teacher.

Story :
A passionate teacher, Kumiko Yamaguchi, a.k.a. Yankumi, is now overseeing the new students of Class 3D of Akado High School, who still have not opened up to her and are giving her a hard time.
One day, the students of 3D get harassed by street hoodlums. Then, Reita, a leader figure of 3D, shows up and beats up the hoodlums, yelling “Keep your hands off my friends.” The next day, the guys beat up by Reita come storming into their school. Principal Sawatari berates the students for getting mixed up with a gang, and gives Kumiko an ultimatum: “You’re fired the next time a 3D student gets into trouble.” Then Reita tells Kumiko that he doesn’t want to owe her anything, and he takes off by himself to settle the score with the gang...

Meanwhile, trouble was also brewing for the former 3D student who just graduated. The police are after Ren for being involved in an illegal drug transaction. Upset Kumiko tries to find him with the other former 3D students. However, they later find out from her grandfather, the head of the Oedo Family, the shocking identity of the mastermind pulling the strings of the drug deal Ren is being accused of...

For the culmination and conclusion of the 7-year series, the staff and cast get together again, including the main casts from the second and third season.
