| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- So, that is that. This covered all the way to the end of the original SR manga. I feel a little jipped. |
| Any subs came out? |
 |
| I don't think there are any out yet. I think it will be a few more days. |
| </sadface> |
| Yay for spanish speed subs.- It somehow felt a little better to see the end animated than in the manga. Not what (shipping) fans would have wanted, but not quite a bad end. My favorite joke was when Harima was asking for directions to the airport, then Tenma tries to say "Help, I'm being kidna-" then she's cut off by Harima speeding. |

They did speed up on what was on the manga still it was a good Ova. |
 |
| it was ok, but i would prefer if they make a third serie instead of 2 ovas~~, too many great story elements were cut out. |
     |
| an open end.. |
 |
| A typical half-assed non-ending. What a surprise. |
 |
| That was a pretty good OVA. I guess Tenma heard everything Harima said on the bike and had also kind of figured out he liked her. I wonder how things will work out for the two in the future....I honestly hope Harima gives up on her and goes for Eri. |

| Does anyone else feel like re-watching all of SR again? (26+2+26+2) |
| Same dumb ending as the manga. Not that I expected any different, but having it animated didn't make me feel any better. |
| The OVA was okay... A little random with Kurasuma's illness though. I hope that Tenma actually wakes up and goes for Harima, but really, what are the chances of that? lol Eri was talking about guys liking her for her looks rather than her personality... Tenma only started liking Karasuma because of his looks, she had no idea about his personality rather than his obvious introverted self. Weird ending, not nearly as entertaining as the previous seasons... |
| I actually thought there was progress with Harima's unrequited love. Didn't read the manga so I just think it finally move somewhere after the huge gap. Never liked Karasuma but I feel bad for his mental illness. The deep moments between Eri and Harima was great and hilarious, I laffed all the way. The reunion ending was pretty sweet... Not fan of Tenma-chan but seeing her blissful for Kenji was touching. The OVA overall is 8/10. It's definitely missing a lot, but these 2 eps aren't just random School Rumble episodes. This series is just one of those love comedy that shouldn't end. :< |
 |
| If you think the ending is weird, this is the way the manga ends... =.= Anyhow, pretty good animation in this episode. The ending with all those scenes all through out the manga made me feel nostalgic =D |

| It's over.. Well, I won't say i'm fully satisfied with how things turned out, but it could have been worse. Especially looking at how crappy the previous OVA was. So in the end, Tenma never actually found out that it was Harima who saved her back then? And another thing: the manga is finished/completed/finito? So there definitely wont be any new stories after the final reunion. |
ChiBuki said: This series is just one of those love comedy that shouldn't end. :< Agreed The ending was kinda eh....disappointing i guess... But to me School Rumble is one of those stories that is about what goes on in the middle, rather than the ending. It doesn't have a great plot, if it has a substantial one at all, but the funny high school situations are priceless...i hope they make episodes 1-24... |
 |
| didn't they add a lot of HarimaxTenma stuff that the manga didn't have? |
| I liked this OVA... although pie throwing contest was too random. Still, I thought it's sweet, even if it is a little different from the manga. I mean, come on guys, with a casual romantic comedy like this, there's no way you could've expected an epic ending. |
 Thanks, person who gave me this on another site a long time ago, lol. |
| Well dont forget that manga still goess on... Geez i cant relax unless i find who will end with Eri and Yakumo !!!!! Btw good ova |
 |
| it was ok. now I wonder if I should start the manga from z... |
逃げちゃ駄目だ。 |
| 2/5 They've put whole volume in this ep. Mucho stuff missing and Im gonna hate them if they won't release 1-24, just coz of Eri arc. Srsly, it's the only thing I wanna see from the missing chapters, also I want more of Eri from the skipped part from these two episodes. |
| While it's still good, I really felt that this was rushed. This episode could've easily taken up 3 episodes. Oh well, it managed to make me laugh quite a bit (much more than the first episode) I can't say I'm impressed, but I like it nonetheless. Now, on to School Rumble Z. 4/5 |
| They combined the best and the worst of the manga... Yeah I think I'm writing a review for this...xD |
| I thought this was pretty weak on the whole. There were some good moments, such as Eri handing Harima's arse to him for being such a jerk. I hope things develop more in School Rumble Z, it would be a shame to have this as my lasting memory of the series, which up to this point has been brilliant. |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| i'm quite disappointed =.= actually, i didn't read the manga, but from this kind of ending i can't rate this higher than 3/5. it was ok, but...they didn't conclude any relationships. i agree with you saying that SR should have kept going on. -.-' |
| ... This episode just makes me go back to the old ones and forget it ever ended. That ending was the most strangest, non-complete, brought-out-of-nowhere ending. Favorite quote: "Ha...ha...Hanai-kun." "So close!" D: |
| That felt sudden... The ending was ok but yeah it was weird I thought this was how the manga ended but now i know theres more... good |
 |
| lol, the only thing worse than the School Rumble manga ending was seeing that pile of crap animated.... |
   |
| Oh no, it's finished :( Not the ending i was hoping but could be worst... Now i only have to finish the manga, and start to read z. I will miss School Rumble, The entire serie was just great!! |
 |
| Right when it got me back into the SR mood, I feel really dissapointed. Good OVA though. |

I mean, come on guys, with a casual romantic comedy like this, there's no way you could've expected an epic ending. lol true but the endings from season 1 and 2 were pretty epic :d |
     |
| The OVA progressed well but ended for the worse. I can't call this an ending. It seems like an ending B in RPG games (normal ending, not bad, not good) The story of romance didn't end. Is there another season or OVA? Rated it 8/10 |
| The OVA wasn't bad, it's just there was only two and they were the last two episodes that made it bad.... 7/10 |
 |
| Darn, I still wished that something happened between Eri and Harima. O well, guess you can't get everything in life. :] |
 |
| Sucks completely that they didn't just make a third season. With this, I don't think we are ever going to see School Rumble animated ever again, unless Z becomes unbelievably huge. 7/10 |

| I don't see how anyone could have expected the ending to be any different. I've known from season 1 that we wouldn't get a proper ending. There were far too many relationships to resolve. Despite this, I clung onto the vain hope that we would get a Harima and Eri ending. I never really cared for Tenma or Yakumo. *sigh* I really do feel for Harima. He's one of the most tragic characters I've came across in a while. I also have a question: Did Tenma fall in love with Harima or something? The way she looked at him at one point during that reunion confused me. However, I did laugh and smile, so this OVA was successful in that aspect. I was rather confused about the opening scenes of episode 1. It's been quite some time since I watched season 2 (haven't watched since it finished), but I knew that those scenes didn't happen in the anime. Guess I'll have to read the manga. 3/5 |

| I feel a little disapointed, 'coz I wanna more... That was great OVA, but this is not as much as I want I think. I feel some empty inside... What happend to Karasuma, Harmia and Tenma? What happend with rest of them? Ojou and Yakumo? I WANNA MORE!!!! |
| :( |
 |
| less funny, more story, still loved it! |
   |
| Man that was... retarded. This reminded me of Mahoromatic's crap ending, although this wasn't nearly as bad. So after two seasons and OVA's of constant romantic drama that was hilarious and full of great moments, the ending reads like this: - the love of the main character girl, Tenma, ends up having alzheimer's, which didn't come up til the very end.... convenient. - Harima backward confesses and is only acknowledged when Tenma is long gone and can't face him. - Eri and Harima actually have a moment, which I thought would never happen, and they STILL don't end up together or even have a moment. - Harima leaves and years pass until the last few minutes when it's all goody-goody again. Karasuma is still a vegetable, Harima is still hung up on Tenma and Tenma is still in love with the vegetable. Wow. As good as anime is, the Japanese have also become experts on bad endings. It's laughable how bad most endings to anime are. *Sigh. |

Well that is quite true.. like making cliffhanger endings like code geass 2.. what a dissapointment!! they do not want to answer all the questions that should be answered. and that would spawn the hope of having yet another followed sequel, if that would happen at all, right? :P |
