GTO: The Early Years - Shonan Junai Gumi

Before Eikichi Onizuka became a legend, before Onibaku, before he became GTO, he was just a normal junior high school delinquent. Getting into fights with his seniors, trying to pick up girls and just hanging out with his friends. Bad Company is a compilation of many short stories, linked together with the characters of Eikichi, Ryuji and their school buds. Such stories involve the origins of Eikichi`s bike, which we see frequently in GTO, the first meeting with the Midnight Angel and many other.

Former juvenile delinquent Onizuka finds himself thrust into to role of high school teacher, facing students who behave just as he used to and an administration that doesn't trust him. Using the brash an unorthodox methods he picked up in his youth, Onizuka manages to reach through to his kids and help them with their problems.

Known as the gargoyle of Inogashira Park police station because of his scary face, Saejima Toshiyuki was a loser. He's pretty much a virgin for all intent and purposes, aside from the companions that he pays for. He wasn’t always a loser though. During his high school days, he was feared as a badass, but now he is just a person people feel sorry for. He then meets Arimori Shizuka, a beautiful girl that seems comfortable in her sexuality. Toshiyuki learns that she was a high class escort that has been with over 1000 men. She was doing it out of love for her abusive boyfriend but, realizing her mistake, quits. Shizuka is now being harassed and Toshiyuki reverts back to his aggressive personality to protect the love of his life.

Determined to proclaim the title of "Shonan's strongest", Ikki Kurokami enrols at the reputable Tsujido High School (where the legendary Oni-baku duo, Eikichi Onizuka and Ryuji Danma previously attended) and yearns to become part of the Shonan Seven, a group of members selected to represent their school to fight in a tournament to determine the strongest school in Shonan. However, in order to earn a place as one of the "selected members", he must first battle his way to the top. It seems that this year, there are many powerful entrants who also want to compete for a spot.
