Gokusen Season 3 Episode 11

i can find merit in disgrace

nakama yukie really carries this show in it’s darkest scenes. I’ve only watched her work as yamaguchi but this role has spanned six years ，she was competent at the start but here she’s undeniably great. because this show has gotten redundant which i attribute to wantin to play it safe. keep it easily digestable ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ the second clash with goda i felt like even if they have a message they don’t know what they’re saying. i get the point but i don’t agree with how we get there. i felt like both goda & akagi didn’t get the nuance they deserved. i still stand by what i said about them disregarding the same kids just because they aren’t in yamaguchi’s class. we see his guilt but we don’t get to learn anything else about him. akagi also was just standard. what else is there to her ，possibly the one antagonistic character to truly challenge yamaguchi & ground her as a flawed human ？｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ with that being said i really wnjoyed this final speech ，the most in the etnire show probably. it really did pick up in the after+math of goda. i quite like ogata & kazama. i think they’re quite well+written & balanced perfectly. ogata falls closer to odagiri of the two but he still has the impulses & immaturity of his other mis+fit kids. kazama is naturally rowdy like him but he has a big heart that speaks to him & it’s just as great as a brain ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆　　 ｡･:*:･ﾟ★,｡･:*:･ﾟ☆ i think this series is naturally flawed but it is a good time. it’sx sweet when you just leave it at face+value. i like this from a stan perspective & also through human eyes. it makes me miswreable sometimes bugt i wouldn’t refuse to rewatch it all over again.
