Synopsis

She...is a second-year high school student with a single all-consuming question: Will the boy she likes ever really notice her? He...is the school's most notorious juvenile delinquent and he's suddenly come to a shocking realization: He's got a huge crush, and now he must tell her how he feels. Life-changing obsessions, colossal foul-ups, grand schemes, deep-seated anxieties, and raging hormones—School Rumble portrays high school as it really is: over-the-top comedy!

Preface:
This review will contain - small and harmless - spoilers. I feel pathetic introducing a text with this kind of unnecessary warning, but the damned capitalism has created in the minds (of some weak people) that the malignant "spoiler" ruins the experience of a work. I couldn't disagree more. The surprise, the twist, for many (IGNORANT) readers matters more than the whole process. It's clear that anyone who consumes a story caring more about the surprise than the content should go to a magic show or watch a Manchester United game, rather than consuming art. A view that is tremendously molded by consumerism, which increasingly ...

No spoilers for the first part. There will be marked spoilers after the first part, for a bit of a longer read.

This is a romcom that does not have a satisfying conclusion.
For me, this is an absolute deal breaker. There is nothing I hate more than to read/watch an entire series, only to find out there is no resolution to anything that was set up throughout the series. There is no real payoff to any of the romance building. In a romcom.
So if you are anything like me, then don't bother with School Rumble. It isn't worth your time.

It's quite clear the author was just ...
