Hungry for treasure, Onizuka forces his class to dig around an island under the pretense that they are searching for turtle eggs.

And when she gets lost alone with Noboru, Anko Uehara, the bully of Class Four, begins to feel the pangs of love. Is it love? We'll see when they spend the night together. Ah, ribaldry. And if Onizuka plays cupid, sparks may fly. And if Azusa gets drunk enough...sparks will fly.

Voici le treizième volume de GTO, dans lequel on verra Eikichi Onizuka faire un grand écart au-dessus d'une cascade accompagné de deux de ses élèves, réciter une prière méditative à Bouddha et se moquer de leurs sous-vêtements pour leur faire oublier cette situation quelque peu délicate.

Onizuka forces his class to dig around an island under the pretense that they are searching for turtle eggs, when in reality he is looking for treasure.

Onizuka stuns the academic world by getting first place in the national exams. And the media turns him into a local hero for saving the life of a councilman's daughter. Mr. Teshigawara's plan to get Onizuka sacked backfired, reducing the highly educated Todai graduate into a nervous wreck… and his class is paying the price. Also unhappy with Onizuka's impending permanence, Miyabi hatches another plot against Onizuka by inviting back to the school Urumi Kanzaki, an infamous classroom terrorist, probably the most formidable foe Onizuka has yet faced.

Well, this time Onizuka may really be out of a job. His only chance is to take and pass a standardized test, the same one his own students are taking. Good news: Azusa wants to help him study. Bad news: Onizuka wants Azusa. Also, Teshigawara is determined to see him fail. And what with zapping himself with a stun gun, vomiting in the fish pond, and duking it out with yakuza, it'll be amazing if Onizuka even makes it back to his desk before the test is over.

Teens love it. Parents hate it. Librarians are confused by it; and patrons are demanding it. Libraries have begun purchasing both manga and anime, particularly for their teen collections. But the sheer number of titles available can be overwhelming, not to mention the diversity and quirky cultural conventions. In order to build a collection, it is important to understand the media and its cultural nuances. Many librarians have been left adrift, struggling to understand this unique medium while trying to meet patron demands as well as protests. This book gives the novice background information necessary to feel confident in selecting, working with, and advocating for manga and anime collections; and it offers more experienced librarians some fresh insights and ideas for programming and collections.

Teens especially love this highly visual, emotionally charged and action-packed media imported from Japan, and its sister media, anime (Japanese animation); and libraries have begun purchasing both. Chock full of checklists and sidebars highlighting key points, this book includes: a brief history of anime and manga in Japan and in the West; a guide to visual styles and cues; a discussion of common themes and genres unique to manga and anime; their intended audiences; cultural differences in format and content; multicultural trends that manga and anime readers embrace and represent; and programming and event ideas. It also includes genre breakdowns and annotated lists of recommended titles, with a focus on the best titles in print and readily available, particularly those appropriate to preteen and teen readers. Classic and benchmark titles are also mentioned as appropriate. A glossary and a list of frequently asked questions complete the volume.
