How long has Netflix also had the original run? Did that show up with the revival?

Would be nice to see the previous live-action Onizuka series - especially the one from the 90s - show up on Netflix and/or home video at some point too

The OG live-action GTO series is already on Netflix, along with GTO Revival. The only thing missing is the theatrical film. |

Yeah, Netflix has a surprising number of older JDramas. They still don't have Trick, though....

I only saw the 2024 TV series listed - is the 90s Live Action stuff under a different name? |

GTO 1998 (including the 2024 special but missing the 1999 special and the movie): https://www.netflix.com/title/80066010 GTO 2026: https://www.netflix.com/title/82968487 (Note that the 1998 series has had a good ~80% of the background music replaced for licensing reasons, so expect a lot of cheap stock music, weird audio glitches where they weren't able to fully remove the original soundtrack, and ad nauseam repetition of the handful of original tracks they were able to still use.) |

Yeah, I saw something about this in a Amazon review for the Japanese Blu-ray Box so the video is most likely based off that release. |

Interesting... I'm a big fan of the first GTO live action adaptation, it's peak drama. This being a sequel directed and screenwritten by the same people who did such a stellar job on the old show, I admit I'm intrigued. Yet, on the other hand, I'm scared to check it out, because the actress who played the female lead in the 1998 adaptation apparently isn't in this new show. At least, not in the first two episodes, according to IMDb. The ending of the old show is quite romantically fulfilling, I don't want to watch a sequel only to find that Onizuka and his romantic interest from back then eventually separated. I'd rather keep it as a "happily ever after" ending in my mind. (Even though the new female lead is very pretty. 😂)
