Mangaka Tohru Fujisawa announced on Wednesday that he would resume her GTO: Paradise Lost manga in Kodansha’s Weekly Young Magazine after finishing both chapters of his Re: Joe Animal manga.

About Great Teacher Onizuka
Great Teacher Onizuka, officially abbreviated as GTO, is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tooru Fujisawa. It was originally serialized in Kodansha’s Weekly Shōnen Magazine from January 1997 to February 2002.
It is a continuation of Fujisawa’s earlier manga series Shonan Junai Gumi and Bad Company, both of which focus on the life of Onizuka before becoming a teacher.
Eikichi Onizuka, a 22-year-old ex-biker gang leader, leaves his old life behind to become the greatest teacher of all time.
However, his passion is something completely different from teaching. He wants a loving teen wife for his old-age, and a high school is a perfect place for wooing a teenager.
Onizuka finds a place to prove his worth and hence begins the psychological warfare between witty teens who hate all teachers and a perverted, lazy and greedy yet, intelligent teacher, Onizuka.
