EPIC BATTLE! hehehe.

Ichijou's wrestling move was epic. I'm not sure about the introduction of Lala and Harry this late in the series, but it's ok.

What kind of war are they doing at a sports festival, wtf?
I'd say Eri's move was the best, sacrificing herself for Harima's pride :)

Yeah I'm starting to think Eri secretly likes Harima...even if she doesn't realize it herself yet. At the moment though Harima has eyes only for Tenma.

HA HA! I never thought I'd use the word EPIC with this series. A+ comedy & A+ action!

God help me! I actually thought Tenma was cute when she walked in the classroom in that cheerleader outfit.

This episode was really boring in the first half. I love ErixHarima and redheadxMikoto. The ending was great, too.

That was so epic! I didn't think that 'epic' would ever be the word I would use to describe this anime, but I've been proven wrong by this awesome episode.

A few things that were epic in this episode:
1. The whole idea of the game
2. The awesome bird's eye effect shown when the charged for the opposite team
3. The crazy fat dude....
4. Akira lying on the ground and Mikoto asking "Are you ok?!?" Her response? "Yeah, just dying,"
5. Ichijou's crazy moves at the end of the battle!

This episode was so cool :)

I'm thinking she definitely likes him... And that she first started liking him since whatever their first misunderstanding was. XD

Ichijou's amazing! (So is Hanai, for that matter. You'd almost think that they're superhuman or something~)

Loved every moment of it. I am SO getting injured now, I want to see the school nurse! XD

And what a battle! Even Class A and B showed tactics of their own, Sun Tsu will be proud.

Loved the episode, and that preview where Tae and Eri square off over you know who...can't wait for the next episode. In fact since I'm marathoning I don't have to wait....
Please don't feed the trolls!

This was awesome. Everyone got a chance to show off besides Tenma and it was hilarious.

Highlights: Ichijou vs Lara, Harima and Eri Twin Hurricane kick, Hanai's abs of Steel. It was just awesome.

Oh Sawachika, you're such a tsundere! But she did saved his ass (even though she's the one who shaved him).

The whole fighting was pretty damn cool. Ichijo rocks! :D

Awesome! Awesome episode!

Lala does enjoy cheerleading. lol

That HarimaXEri moment. That was nice of her to save him from that embarrassment. Good on you Eri.

This episode was so much fun to watch!

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

I wish I had magic glasses that let me see real world in anime colors ;)

This episode reminds me of being a teen and having epic chicken fights with my huge and crazy extended family. It's similar but only 2 people per team and it's played in the water.

Finally, the Kibasen match is here. And there is also Mai <3 in team with Imadori. Stupid Karasuma, people is cheating (even if they still don't get away with it) and he thinks everything is fair game.

Shut up Eri, Harima has all the right in the world to be mad at you. Anegasaki immediately returns to her usual annoying self, and like a nurse Joy seem to want people to be injured.

Akira out? Good, i was afraid she would have won everything with no effort. At least Eri protected Harima's secret even if she still acted smug about it.

NOOOO! NOOOOOO! Mai and Imadori are out and unfortunately it was actually her to blame (even if he himself did some heavy damage to Mikoto after). Now i see why i wanted to erase this moment from my memories. Damn.

YES! YES! Great job, Hanai and Ichijou. It seemed off for them to lose like that unceremoniously. i cheered HARD when they defeated 2-D. Already liked her since day one, but now my respect for her went up in the sky. What a great episode, even if with some fear left as the sports festival isn't over yet.

Did they reference that scene from LOTR: Return of the King when Legolas & Gimli were competing with kills and Legolas takes down an oliphaunt on his own, and Gimli says, "That only counts as one!"

I really love the Eri x Harima moments. Fate keeps trying to get them together, but it's too bad Harima has zero feelings for her. Haha

I can't believe I forgot about this one from my first run through, this really was epic. The three fat dudes was so stupid and the 2-C class reactions to that was even funnier lmao.

Another thing I like about School Rumble is how they call back to previous things from other episodes (like how they called Imadori "banana boy"; references to the camping episode, etc.). Seems like most other non-serious animes don't do that and it's nice here.
