This episode was crazy, quite fitting of the show as I know by now...
Karasuma's devotion to curry is just hilarious too!

I am really starting to hate Karasuma... He is just a fucking bore. The rest of the episode was hilarious though, I love the part at the end where he gives her the wrong letter. XD

That was insanely funny. Where did that Anegasaki woman come from...all of a sudden she just shows up behind Kenji...kinda freaky. One of the best episodes yet.

She really asked him if he liked her or curry?

Ohhhh you lose. That's not the right girl.

Akira is the anime version of Daria.

I would've died if Eri and Harima got together. That would've been really awesome.

Um. That's so embarrassing if the principle reads his love letter thinking it's to him.

Love is pretty weird if it makes Harima prefer Tenma over Eri

And I think Karasuma already knows it's Tenma that wrote that letter

That was not the principal, I think Tani-sensei was their homeroom teacher.

Karasuma's score; Curry: 3, Tenma: 0. One point for direct answer, another point for not answering her second direct question and the final point for not going after her and going to the curry restaurant, curry wins! LOL Anyway Karasuma just dodged Harima's attack just like that? They keep building the mystery around Karasuma.

From the preview, Kentarou is supposed to be the original main character? He looks like one of those generic main character for a harem anime.

Oh man, so many cringe moments.
I choked on my spit when it ended up not being Tsukamoto he was saying "I love you" to.
I also screamed when Tsukamoto said that Harima had given her the resignation letter. Just thinking about Mr. Tani getting that love letter was too much!
So much going on though, especially the animals. awww yiis/

The harima x eri ship has set sail! Knees to the face for everyone! And delicious curry.

But I still like the Harima x Ane ship.

Wait, that mean that the teacher got the love letter..? Oh, the misunderstandings to come. That coupled with his declaration to Eri (though, it may lead to nothing, due to her cold reaction when she saw him with the hot lady).

Harima confirmed to be Moise reborn. Now, he need to build a boat and go search for unknown land... Or crash it directly in Eri. Wait, he already did that.

Nice to focus on Suou.

Harima is Moses this episode. lol

I like how Suou and Eri tried to get Harima back into school. That's nice.

Can't beleive Tenma asked Karasuma if he liked curry or her more. He hesitated and that was the mistake he made. But then again the curry was half off. I knew that was going to hurt her feelings. She ran. I wonder how Tenma fell in love with Karasuma. I hope we see that soon.

Harima confessed his love to Eri who he thought was Tenma by accident! Uh oh! I wonder if it will end up EriXHarima. They are giving a lot of hints. I wouldn't mind that.

Suou likes somebody! Who I wonder.

Looks like Harima is back to he was and back to school.

Based on this episode i would say that if you removed the comedy aspect the show could have still worked as genuine short romance series.

Hammy but enjoyable.

And i do not usually care about shipping but i actually wishing while watching this that Harima could end up with everyone :D

Harima is the best yeah :D every scene with him is funny or cool as it is funny not only for kids, maybe because it is old anime ? Also it is very original compared to all the new ones :)

Harima fortune teller, Harima god, Penguin running so fast on that bridge, Karasuma choosing curry over Tenma, that love letter ;d and so much more ;] 6/5 !

Karasuma telling Harima to follow Tenma and saying he has something to do while pointing at the curry sign had me in stitches.

I'm really beginning to love Harima. Yes he's a complete and utter buffoon who runs on moon logic and can't read the room 99 percent of the time, but underneath all that he's a really good person who loves Tenma so genuinely that he shows he'd rather see her be happy with someone else than let her be sad. And when Karasuma makes her cry Harima's first instinct is forcing him to make up with her just so she won't be hurt anymore.

His bad luck is hilarious, but at the same time I feel I'm rooting for him more and more.

Harima x Eri? Could it be?

Mikoto in a gi <3 and glad she had her small revenge against Hanai. If there wasn't Mai, she would by a long shot my favorite character of School Rumble. Also clever enough to recognize Harima* under that old man disguise... it's not something to take for granted for animation in general.

No, Harima, you should have exactly said they weren't made for each other. Karasuma doesn't even answer to her question.

(*facepalms and nods head in despair when Harima confesses his feelings to the last person that should have been there. No, wait, it gets worse. Anegasaki is already little by little confirming why she was in my top 3 bottom list characters and will probably stay as one)

There it is... chibi Harima falling into the bottom of despair also for a letter gone wrong. Back in the day i had that scene as a gif for MSN chats.

Ten episodes in, and i'm more sure than ever that season 1 even if still entertaining is inferior to Ni Gakki.

Those animals were so adorable!

I really would like Sawachika to become a love interest. However, knowing this series, it's gonna end up as a one-sided love affair. I think all romance here has been one-sided thus far.

It's too bad he took for granted that hot sugar mommy. I know I wouldn't.

God Harima is so fricking awesome. From him being a Fortune Teller to him simply just wanting to be with Tenma, he's a laugh a minute character. Karasuma shouldn't have made Tenma cry with the curry stuff.

I wonder if Eri is going to have some development with Harima seeing as he did accidentally confess his feelings to her. XD I really don't think I want to be in the same room as the teacher when Harima literally put the wrong letters in the wrong envelopes. There's gonna be some awkwardness should the two of them see each other again at school.
