I think the story with the runaway was really realistic but is it just me or has Tenma gotten a little bitchy since the first few episodes? lol.

As always, I want only good things for Harima. How random and awesome that he has a little brother.

lol. WHAT?! About Akira.

Awesome randomness that I actually like. :D

Akira needs her own side-story? Apparently there's always more to the serious, pokerfaced characters, haha...

Pyotr. Harima's quite creative with names. Sounds like a dinosaur name. XD

Anyway... yeah. Liked the episode. Why was Karasuma wearing a fake mustache? We will never know, I bet.

Kenji's little brother is one lucky kid, he got to sleep next to Yakumo! T_T

So Akira's got a gig of her own last summer eh? With the Italian mafia from the looks of it. I wonder who is that's kid resemblance that Akira mentioned, that boy's father? And what's in it for her? It maybe me random but it got me curious anyway. XD

May the animals be happy in the zoo... :(

Akira and her ''troubles'', uh... Was she talking about turning into CGI? That's pretty troubling, indeed.

You know, when the imouto feels more like an onee-chan, that mean you're kinda failing as an onee-chan.

Harima's little brother was a bit random. I didn't expect him.

Alright episode with the animals.

Got really weird with all of that 3-D animation there after the ED. Is Akira a spy? That's what I got from this. lol

I am known as Mo. I started a mission that began with a Youtube channel called “Jin Kobayashi Please Hear Me” and have been working very hard to get the attention of the mangaka Jin Kobayashi, the creator of the phenomenal manga and anime series School Rumble. The ultimate goal I want to reach is not just for myself but also for countless other School Rumble fans , … a proper ending for the series (either in manga form or anime, or both) with closure. I do not understand or speak Japanese, so this mission has not been an easy task trying to reach out to a man who is rumored to only speak and understand the Japanese language. Basically I am making detailed Youtube videos hoping that either Kobayashi Jin will see them and reply, or someone that knows him will see the videos and bring his attention to them and then he would reach out to speak with me. This is the motto of the mission : “Justice for Harima, closure for the fans, may the hero get his girl, may his spring finally come.”

I hate it when anime/manga that I enjoyed ends, especially when there could be much longer plot and when I love main heroine :P

Not only did I get to see a kitty sleeping in Tenma's bed with her but I got to see Kenji's kitty!
Also, I'm 98% sure that CGI part was a JoJo reference. I'm currently watching part 5 (or I would be if the dub wasn't on hiatus >.<), which is the part this is referencing so I really liked it.

Omg Harima getting kidnapped by a giraffe the moment he was finally ready to confess his love to Tenma xD

"Whiskers? IS SHE TALKING ABOUT ME?"

This show really is all about the running gag and I'm here for it. If anything Tenma and Harima only seem to be becoming more dense over time. xD I'm totally team Harima, but considering the weird random twists and turns School Rumble keeps throwing at you I wouldn't be surprised if it could even come up with something that lets me end up loving Karasuma too. Y'know, as soon as he starts showing any sign at all of having a personality. :p

if the last bit was attempting to convince that Akira is cool, it still failed with me, and it would have been the same if it still was in 2D animation. i just never liked her.


Damn you giraffe, we were almost there with Harima pronouncing those cursed six letters "it's you!" to the question from Tenma about who he likes. Decent introduction to his little brother. Glad that Sarah received more screentime. Remembered Mikoto cut her hair a little shorter, but not just for the sake of it. Still wonderful.

So, those animals that were following him around from the earlier episodes weren't random.
Both brothers are in love with the Tsukamoto sisters. Interesting.
Aww, those animals looked adorable when they were doing the awa odori dance. It almost made me tear up.
Akira is a femme fatale. The author was influenced by all those 90s movies about them. Haha!

Well that was Harima's little brother eh? Quite random that he was just there in the middle of the street if he wasn't a runaway. Poor Tenma losing every game she had with him was fun. I didn't see that CGI bit with Akira coming after the end credits it sort of looked like an early PS2 game cutscene or something. And evidently the random animals that Harima has weren't random at all and they are now at the zoo I guess. Kurasama came back with a freaking moustache. XD Priceless, just priceless.
