THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE.
----------------------------------------
Ok, i want to know just how many people around here have watched this show or read the manga. i've been looking about on other sites. and it seems there is very little to be found out about this show. in Japan, it is very influential, and has ranked well in popularity polls. but everywhere else, it is simply 'meh'. cannot even find any translation of the manga, either.it seems to be overlooked, probably due to its age and obscurity. if any show would be considered 'criminally ignored', it would probably be this one.

To JCDRANZER:yeah, Raws is all i can find of it too.(curses) anyway, this is probably one of the best 'orphan' anime out there. one that seems to fly under everyone's collective radar. due to time constraints, have only been able to view the first 6 episodes.. hopefully some other group will take it on. if you know of any group interested in subbing this series, let me know.

Hey, at least we have the raws. Better that than losing it to the rifts of time, like many TV shows from the 60s and 70s.

I really liked the first episode. Too bad this anime is so hard to find on the net, and I don't think it's subbed except for the first two eps. Such a damn shame.

I respect your opinion as long as you respect mine.

This is great but for all the wrong reasons. Growing up in the 80s in the UK, there was a lot of this kind of innocent sex comedy going on - not that it was aimed at kids, but with only three channels, what else were we going to watch? It's not sexy in the slightest, despite lots of upskirts which the protagonist doesn't care about at all. Dated and problematic AF but still really funny.

Quick shadowdub:

Machiko Mai Carol Cleveland
Kenta Ikegami Todd Carty
Tamao Kameyama Terry Sue-Patt
Kinzo Yuki John Hasler
Maruko Alex Kingston
Vice-Principal Joyce Windsor
Fukuoku-san Eric Idle
Aomori-san Ronnie Barker
Yamagata-san Ronnie Corbett
Principal Ronnie Barker

Now that the home video is out, hopefully this anime would get more "exposure."

Lucky class gets a hot teacher, but unlucky for the teacher to get a pervy prankster plus two apprentices. Warning: expect a lot of unwanted touching and... boobies! (This is from 1981, long before the metoo era.)

I like the character designs -- albeit different from the manga -- but the work makes the show look too "innocent." I could've sworn I've seen similiar artwork elsewhere? Of course, we all know by now that not all animation are just for kids, but yet this one is supposed to be for teens?

Nice first episode introducing everyone... hopefully the culture shock wasn't too much. Surprisingly well-written. Not too mean in spirit, but still poor Miss Machiko during her first day. Buuuuut, she has her own revenge tactics to outwit Kenta's crew... that is unless she does not "give up." No matter who wins, it looks like Miss Machiko is gonna make it after all.
