C'est le début de l'année scolaire au lycée Ryuuzan. La directrice annonce à tous les enseignants que l'école a fait faillite et qu'ils se retrouveront tous au chomage. Ryuuzan est le plus mauvais lycée de Tokyo, surnommé le lycée des cancres et personne ne veut plus financer les dettes. Sakuragi Kenji est un avocat pour qui les affaires ne vont pas fort et qui traîne un passé de délinquant de la route derrière lui. C'est lui qui est envoyé à Ryuuzan pour officialiser la fermeture du lycée. Après avoir été froidement accueilli au lycée autant par l'équipe enseignante, au lieu de se contenter de fermer l'établissement, il lui vient une idée folle, celle d'envoyer 5 élèves à Todai (l'Université de Tokyo, la plus réputée du Japon) cette année, pour redresser la situation et redorer l'image du lycée. Ce drama raconte l'histoire de la classe prépa assez spéciale que Sakuragi a créée en vue de la préparation aux concours d'entrée de Todai.

Loved: Abe Hiroshi is excellent in this role (it was the first I saw him in and probably still my favourite) - he maintains the balance of strictness, understanding and self-interest well and the students develop a real rapport with him. While the students were all quite young when Dragon Zakura was filmed most of them are now big names (Yamashita Tomohisa, Koike Teppei, Nagasawa Masami, Aragaki Yui) and it's interesting to see where they started out (although the acting of some has definitely improved with time!).



Didn't Love: The student's homeroom teacher (played by Hasegawa Kyoko) can be annoying at times but she always has the student's best interests at heart. Like most high school doramas there is a whole bunch of anti-change teachers to irritate the viewer and an incompetent but well-meaning principal with a penchant for hats tops it off.



Dragon Zakura isn't just another high school dorama - it's unique, funny and focuses on encouraging the students to want to improve themselves and their lives, rather than just mass-producing exam bots who can't think for themselves. A feel good show with some wacky characters and teaching methods thrown in for good measure.

It's incredibly motivating drama! The special class has good way to exams... Though.. The end was very surprising... !

Aww.. Fiction. Why did great techears die out? This story shoud be a video tutorial for schools.

I like the main characters so much, everybody are young, pretty and ambitous.. Only Miss Ino was annoying. The woman definately talk to much...
