Dynamite!

Seeing how everything is laid in place at the very first episode just pulls me in. Tumbling starts out with a very simple and often-used premise, that turns out to be more complicated than it seems: a yanki boy likes the girl transfer student and wants to impress her. Voila! It hits two birds with one stone: get more credits by joining a club that the girl you like likes.

But Wataru quickly learns that it's not all roses--and something tells me this is going to be the start of a long and hard ascent to winning the sport.

Yamamoto Yusuke's character here is a 180 degrees opposite that of Tamaki in Ouran or Saejima in GTO (and even nowhere near Taiki, the 'Aura Boy' in Hana Kimi) but then when he is mesmerized by Maki, you can still see that bit of resemblance.

Akira as Kashiwagi sensei--the total opposite to Eikichi (GTO remake).
