There's actually more live-action Great Teacher Onizuka

Sometimes simply called "GTO" Teacher Onizuka was originally a Manga or Japanese comic about a tough, biker guy who dreams of being a School teacher.  The Manga originally began in the late 1990s and a 43-episode Anime was made soon after.  I did watch the Anime way back in the mid 2000s. I remember enjoying the story and characters.   Sadly it ended prior to the Manga being completed. In 2012 A live-action, abbriged, adaptation aired in Japan. Now it's 2014 a short 4-episode sequel or side story.

GTO Taiwan stars "Akira" of Exile in the titular role. By the time you read this post all episodes can be seen on Crunchyroll. The video streaming site. Just a heads up to any of you GTO fans out there.
