Gokusen Drama Season 2, Episode 6

As with Gokusen Season 1, Season 2 has an episode that focuses on each of the main group of students. This time it's Hyuuga who is in the spotlight. It's that time of the school year when the students have to give some indication of what they plan to do in the future. Will they go to work directly after high school? Will they be taking college entrance exams and going in that direction? Hyuuga already has his answer. He will be going to work right out of high school. In fact, he already has a job that is making him good money. However it has put a strain on his already uncomfortable home life, and is causing his mother a lot of worry. Unfortunately his job has him involved with a rough group of people who are up to something illegal... but leave it to Yankumi to straighten out Hyuuga's sticky situation!

The subplot of this episode involves Ryu and Yabuki learning Yankumi's secret! One night while walking outside, they find a wallet. The owner of that wallet is none other than Minoru, who is really really drunk! The boys help Minoru get home, and are understandably dismayed to discover themselves in a Yakuza household! Things get worse when Yankumi returns home to find them there! Her family tries to hide the fact that she is part of the Yakuza family, but it doesn't really work, so Yankumi's grandfather tells them the truth and asks that they keep this information a secret.

At the very end of the episode, several of the characters encourage us to buy the new Gokusen 2 Original Soundtrack CD. I wish I had some money to get it! ^_^
