The other member of the Onibaku duo, Ryuuji is taller and maybe slightly more restrained than his partner, although get in his bad books and you're in for big trouble. He has more luck with women, having had a relationship with his teacher Ayumi, and later Nagisa (seen in GTO). Ryuuji's family are nice, normal people, who appear quite wealthy, who totally disapprove of his 'bad behavior', however his elder sister Yoko allows him to stay at her home when he needs to. His younger brother is called Yoshitaka. Ryuuji rides a Honda CBX-400F, as seen in Bad Company.

Onizuka is a reformed biker gang leader who has his sights set on an honorable new ambition: to become the world's greatest teacher... for the purpose of meeting sexy high school girls. Okay, so he's mostly reformed. 
However, strict administrators and a class of ruthless delinquents stand between Onizuka and his goal and they will use any means, however illegal or low, to drive the new teacher away. Perfect, because Onizuka's methods won't be found in any teaching manual; he cares about the difference between legal and illegal activities about as much as he cares for the age difference between himself and a high school girl. 
So get ready for math that doesn't add up, language you'd be slapped for using, and biology that would make a grown man blush... unless of course, you're the Great Teacher Onizuka. 

 Note: Episode 1 has an airtime of 48 minutes.

Notes: 
- Won the 22nd Kodansha Manga Award for Best Shounen Manga. 
- The chapter count includes the 7 chapters extra GTO: Great Toroko Oppai♡ (Tomoko's Big Adventures) published in volumes 11 and 12, and one extra published in volume 25.

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.

Before Eikichi Onizuka would become the "greatest teacher in the world," he and Ryuji Danma were members of the infamous biker gang, Oni Baku. When they weren't out riding around and getting into trouble, this duo could be found in school. Doing what you ask? Picking up young women of course!

After accidentally compromising his school’s reputation, Eikichi (a.k.a. the GTO) goes home to the peaceful shores of Shonan to lay low until the heat dies down. However, Shonan itself hasn’t escaped its own share of troubles, and Eikichi is inspired to help a group of troubled foster children get back on the track to happiness. Using humor and a person touch to teach today’s youth, Great Teacher Onizuka continues to impart life lessons while rarely testing kids in the classroom.

Great Teacher Onizuka is back, and the next stage for his legend is … prison?!

Does he regret the exploits that landed him in the slammer? Heck, no. In fact, he’s all too happy to calmly tell his fellow prisoners how the whole thing went down—if they’re willing to listen to his story from the very beginning…
