school rumble is by far the best anime this season, heck it's already in my top 5 animes of all time just from a few episodes. mixes the best parts from kare kano and azumanga daioh

It feels/looks a lot like Azumanga Daioh (same creator?) one of the funniest/best series ever IMHO.

Sure, it's kind of pointless but at times you're laughing your ass of (the Bow&Arrow sketch was great, as was the "Girl Talk" one)

The creator is *seriously* good at animation and timing. Azumanga Daioh is better as of now but School Rumble certainly isn't bad.

Well, i got them with chinese subtitles, the subs for english are way too slow. The ending just gets better :smile-big

As for where to download it, you can download the fiest 7 episodes here:
http://bt.nanashi-fansubs.com:2710/index.html?search=school

And download the rest from a fansub group called wannabefansubs. I dont think they have a BT site but you can get it from irc.

The ending totally played with my emotions though. XD

LOL, yeah i miss the nanashi fansubs. But I heard there was a possibility of a School Rumble OVA in the near future. It'd be good because I want freaking Harima to finally get with Tenma! (although I'm secretly hoping for a HarimaxEri coupling). :amuse

Hmm, I'm assuming you can use BT right? You can find the School Rumble 1-26 episode torrent at http://www.boxtorrents.com. Just type in school rumble and you will be able to find it.

BT downloads seperately are avalable at the wanabefansub page from episode 3 onwards

http://www.wannabefansubs.net/?page=rss.php

You can also use mIRC to get the files on the fansubs channels!

I thought this was an OK comedy. There were alot of weird bits (karasuma) and the ending was disappointing to me. The sudden scene changes messed up my mind. But does have its funny moments.

I like the DBZ parody and the Initial D cameo. :D But my favorite part is when Tenma immitates Harima.

Awesome series, and I'm really glad it's going to have a second season.

I really like the series. The humour is pretty unique at times, and it is still filled with action & romance. The only disappointing part is that everyone seems to have have an unrequited love. I guess it does make it a little more realistic.

You did? :huh. I dunno. The series seemed to be finalized by the last episode. Well not finalized, but it gave off the image that they would end it there, so I was really disapointed with the end, but when I found out there was gonna be a second one, I was doing cartwheels :laugh

Yeah that's why it was one of my favorites, though the OVA really toned down on the comedy. I hope the OVA doesn't give a precursor to how the second series is gonna be like. And there wasn't enough Tenma either. But yeah the first season was too funny.

Yeah, the OVAs were meant to be lighter in comedy. Focusing on a few characters for profile purposes. As far as the second season is concerned expect to bust another gut while watching. :laugh

Oh and that's from Azumanga Daioh. It's Ayumi, who's nickname is Osaka, and I'm displaying a bunch of Osaka gifs i made for this whole week for my Osaka week extravaganza.

My favourite character in the SR series is Kyousuke. He is such a funny character... his rolling-start during the relay race was hilarious. He isn't a total pig either, as he seems to treat Karin quite well. His ability to judge women's bra sizes is hilarious too! :lmao

Tenma is a close second though. I love her impersonation of Kenji

I agree with chamcham though, almost all the characters are great in the series. They're all unique, and charming in their own way.

Pretty much. Even Yakumo and her friend had a purpose in the anime. I wonder if some new characters are gonna be introduced.

Arilou
02-16-2006, 06:42 PM
Characters (I don't recall the name of everyone, so I'll probably post descriptions)

Kenji: Funny as hell. Love his total random pathos.
Karasuma: WTF?! He's absolutely hilarious in that he is *so darn random*
Tenma: I find her not that funny actually, not really my kind of humour I guess. Though her archery-seduction attempt was pure gold.
Sawachika: Her role seems to mostly to be to try to act composed when someone (usually Kenji :p) screws up. She doesen't have that many jokes herself, but she's a riot just watching.
Ichijou: Not that funny.... But she works wonderfully in tandem with Mexican-Wrestler girl. Together they are a hoot. Especially if Imadori is in the vicinity :p
Judo-dude and judo-girl are both kind of funny when they work correctly, but a lot of time especially judo-guy is just annoying and judo-girl is relegated to playing straight-(wo)man.
Yakumo, too, is usually playing the straight-woman, but her telepathy is kind of funny at times... She reminds me of Sasaki from Azumanga Daioh...

Chamcham Trigger

Heh well I dunno if id say shes annoying...Well ok maybe she is...

I just feel like eri and harima have this whole bond thing going that they've slowly but surely built up across the span of the series without either of them even noticing it really.



I still laugh so hard when I see that scene that my avy is from in the OVA...It was bad enough when he was caught holding the wall up but then...there goes the towel... :laugh

Chamcham Trigger
02-16-2006, 07:59 PM
I don't see how Tenma's annoying, everything she does is funny. Even down to her stupid voice. I love the earlier episode when he was trying to help her to cheat on that test :laugh. She's such a moron, but still a good sister. Eri is also funny. Both as a setup character, and on her own merit. But she's still at her best as a set up character for Harima

I don't know.... It's just something about her attitude that bugs me. At times she is *really* funny though, but usually she's the least interesting character in the series.

Chamcham Trigger
02-16-2006, 08:15 PM
Wow that's harsh. Least interesting? I dunno. She doesn't have much substance, I can agree with that, but how she uses what story she has, is hillarious. Plus she's practically the main/supporting main character, she must have something to her.

Oh and yeah the seen in Maggy's avy was the highlight of the two OVAs

Arilou
02-16-2006, 08:18 PM
I usually don't really like main-characters actually (it's pretty funny, but that's the way it is) side-characters are usually a lot more compelling to me.

Tenma's attitude just bugs me, except for a few times. Then she's just funny. Harima in fact is kind of annoying too, but he makes up for it by having more interesting relationships with all the other characters :p

Fighting Spirit

02-16-2006, 09:58 PM
Oh well I REALLY like tenma chammy...Its just...I dont really think she fits harima very well is all. I mean at the start I thought it would be a decent pairing, but as time went on he seems alot more compatible with Eri-chan or yakumo you know?


But I know hes completely devoted to tenma unfortunatly...I doubt even in season 2 hed give either of those other 2 girls a chance...But I can hope xD. :P

Ainsin
02-17-2006, 03:49 AM
I've found that towards the end of season 1 of SC, there is very little storyline for Tenma. I think that she isn't that important to the storyline, as we know who she loves, and how difficult it is for her to just talk to the guy.

I also found Hanai a pretty irritating character. He is always destroying the Yakumo/Harima angle (which I like a lot). His only redeeming feature is his sad childhood...

Yakumo is the most interesting character to me. She is unpredictable... and I like how she can read people's inner thoughts. I guess it must be really refreshing for her not to be able read Harima's mind.

Strangely enough, I don't like Eri at all. I guess I can't feel to much empathy for a rich girl. She and Harima have a pretty messed-up relationship though. It always seems to involve Harima being naked.

I'm also someone that doesn't think the Tenma x Harima match should be. I mean they're both dumb, but Harima has too many other matches for him. I like Tenma x Karasuma much more. Or Tenma x Random blue haired guy :amuse

@Ainsin: At the end of the first season, they took too much focus away from Tenma and placed too much on Yakumo. I know she's an important character, but she shouldn't take the spotlight away from her sister too much. She's not really good at that sort of thing, and having too many episodes focusing on Yakumo really offsets the comedy aspect of the anime bigtime. Yakumo's best shown in small doses imo.

Baby Raptor

Nekomimi
02-17-2006, 01:34 PM
Yea I like tenma for comedy reasons...But she doesnt really do anything for me as far as relationships are concerned you know?

I guess thats the difference between yakumo and tenma...Yakumo is good for when the focus is on love and relationships while tenma is wonderful at the comedy aspect of the show...


Awww and you think harima is annoying? I thought he was pretty cute and silly during the first season...I hope he keeps being that way in season 2. :wink

Ainsin
02-17-2006, 01:36 PM
I think it's something like this:

Harima loves Tenma, Eri likes Harima, Yakumo admires Harima, Tenma loves Karasuma, Imadori loves Mitoko, Karin Love Imadori, Hanai loves Yukumo & Kentarou (blue-haired guy) loves Tenma.

I hope you understood that, because it was difficult for me to explain.

Here is a link to Wannabe Fansub's site. They have a SR section that has a character map.Here it is. (http://www.wannabefansubs.net/rumblecorner.php#pic)

I dunno if Yakumo really took away anything from Tenma. I think by half-way through the series, we already knew Tenma very well. She isn't a very complex character. On the other hand, Yakumo is different kettle of fish. I'm still not sure what type of person she is... other than an animal-lover. Harima is also a complex character, but is used as way to see different aspects of Tenma's friends and sister.

Yeah... that was too complex and deep for a Friday. I might speak about this some more another day.

See ya'll soon

Well I just kinda ignore the fact that shes rich since honestly...When was the last time you actually saw her flaunt that fact?

I just like her because of how she teases harima and there general interactions...Who else but her would accidently shave his beard off and then as a apology shaves him bald aswell xD. http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d14/Arkadyz/Smilies/_dieslaughing__by_brokenboulevard.gif

Oh yeah the sports festival is probably my favorite part of the series as well.
The horse part was so funny and got out of controll so fast. I also like the pairing of Harima and Yakumo, though I do think that the pairing of Harima and Eri is probably best.

Nekomimi
02-17-2006, 06:03 PM
Well its hard for me to get behind yakumo because shes so...wierd...heh.

I just cant really get a feel for what shes thinking or really even what kindof person she is. I guess I can understand and like eri-chan more because she reminds me abit of myself and I can understand alot of the things she does xD.

Chamcham Trigger
02-17-2006, 06:08 PM
Ahh understood. Eri does make a better match in the end, and it seems that Harima not liking Yakumo would be some fun irony in the series considering how she passes up everyone else. The mixup in the OVA was kinda sad though. She thought that he liked her when she saw that random though, but it was only because he saw a lslight resemblance to Tenma for a split second.

By the by thats another person that wierds me out...And I think hes why tenma has lost abit of the spotlight because shes so closely tied to him and hes...Well just not that interesting.

He seriously lacks in the depth department and he just comes across as a "gag character" right now to me... :oh

I think it's Karasuma's weirdness and plainess that makes me like him more. Usually the main female in anime likes the prettyboy, but in this series, they decided to choose the weirdest guy to be the love interest. The guy was sleeping in the gym storage room in one episode, and is obsessed with curry :laugh. I love that guy as a nice change of pace. He sets the weird mood of the anime perfectly.

I dont mind wierd...But he has absolutely no personality which is what irks me...

I mean imadori is pretty "wierd", but atleast he has a fun and interesting personality to go with it...


To me Karasuma is just the sterotypical "wierdo" who just happens to be a main character because the heroine of the series is in love with him... :oh

That's basically what made it funnier for me. The series was made to have people question what she sees in him in the first place. He's plain looking, he's really weird, he has a weird obsession with curry, he wears Kappa suits and he's not even extremly popular or anything, not to mention how he's always in his own world for the most part. He's practically the perfect person to make people go "what the hell is going on?" :laugh

I don't really like the shrimp version of School Rumble. They seem to use weird low quality raws for subbing. I ended up just downloading WannabeFansubs releases.

I agree with Magdalena, Karasuma is just a gag character. We know next to nothing about him, other than his weird fetish with curry and kappas... and that he is an awesome manga writer. He is a good counter-foil for Tenma. I doubt we'll ever find out a lot about him though. He is the enigma in the series.

Does anybody else think that Karasuma will be leaving in the beginning of the second season of SR? I reckon it would turn the whole plot on it's head. I'd like to see more of the Yakumo/Eri/Haruma relationship as well.

After watching 4 episodes, I have to say I almost stoppped watching it, because the animation isn't all that great and the characters never really caught my eye.

But after watching a few more episodes, I realized just how funny this series really is...and what's up with those multiple titles each episode? xD

Very weird love triangle, but it's kept me entertained. And the episode where Tenma kept trying to use the arrows was just hilarious xD

and I just made this gif for a member...it's cool matrix scene.

I believe that, similar to Azumanga, School Rumble is more or less a collection of shorter strips or chapters. Hence the multiple titles.

Or they're just using it to pull our legs.

But after watching the series...I've come to love the OP and have rewatched it countless times today :cry


hmmh..That's a hard question. I like the Tenma's sister with Harima, but it seems more like a friendship than anything else. And who would have figured that the blonde girl would fall for Harima xD

It was pretty obvious, really :p
(ought to add this to the animé rules really) "If two people start out hating each other in a romantic series, at least one of them will end the series in love with the other."

What I loved about the OVA's was the switching of the endings for the OVA2 though.... That was funny :p

At that point, I pretty much figured it out, but I was talking about much earlier. In fact I figured out that she would fall for him when he helped her out when after she felt down and out when her father couldn't stay for dinner and Harima came and walked her home. It was obvious then...but before, when you didn't see any interaction between the two, it wasn't obvious.

Yeah, I like how they added all those animals...it was the perfect plot device to give him and Tenma's sister something to talk about...or initially talk about. And then he started to come to her regarding going over his manga. That's pretty much the best friendship in the series, thus far, IMO.

Well, I just finished watching the series yesterday, so it's fresh in my mind. The OP has been playing in my mind all night last night :rotfl

Am I seriously the only one who hates Tenma after Season 2? I mean I'm sick of her being a total bitch to Harima when the majority of the time he does nothing wrong. She treats him absolutely horribly and it's hard to see a sensitive guy like Harima putting up with it when Eri and Yakumo are pretty much better choices and actually show feelings for him. Even with Eri's huge amount of Tsundere-ness and Yakumo's moe-ness they both show soft sides for Harima and genuinely show that they do care about him...

While Tenma just acts like a Karasuma slut.

At least in my view Harima deserves better than Tenma.

I know someone's going to bring up that all female main characters treat the main male horribly but... I've never seen a main female character act as bad as Tenma does not even Sakura and I actually usually like main female characters despite them treating the main male horribly. To me though Tenma takes being the proverbial bitch to a whole new level and I'd love to see her get owned for a change instead of Harima.

If anything Eri acts more like the female main character than Tenma does.

If Harima does get with Tenma in the end I'll be disappointed considering Tenma shows absolutely no interest in Harima at all romantically and it just feels that Harima x Tenma would come out of nowhere.

Gene
05-05-2007, 11:21 PM
At least she's not treating him like crap on purpose. She's a really dense person and is currently oblivious to Harima's feelings (and pretty much everything around her). I do agree Harima needs to move on since Tenma's only focused on Kappa boy for now. I doubt we'll see HarimaxTenma at the end.

Well I hate Tenma more because Harima does so much for her only for her to treat him like crap for no reason at all especially the times where she refers to Harima as being a monkey when she's just as much of a monkey when it comes to Kurasama.

The difference being Harima actually isn't a monkey while Tenma is. She's such a hypocrite. This is especially true when Tenma through Harima out of the Tsukamoto house when he didn't do anything. She didn't even let him explain. Heck Tenma is worse than Akane from Ranma 1/2

Though I can't decide who Harima should be with between Eri and Yakumo so I admit... I want him to have both of them in the end. XD

I'm all for the Happy Meal faction.

Well actually she should have let him explain when she accused him of trying to rape Yakumo. I won't say that the whole misunderstanding wasn't partly Harima's fault though. XD

Still if it was just a Tsundere thing with Tenma I could accept that but it just seems more that Tenma is just a genuine bitch. She shows no signs of the Tsundere personality where Eri really shows that she's the Tsundere of the series while Yakumo is the moe of the series.

Not to mention that with Eri and Yakumo they found interest in Harima because of his actions, but no matter what Harima does for Tenma she either ignores it, misunderstands what he was trying to do, or goes into a complete uber bitch fest and starts accusing him of things he hadn't done. Her accusations of Harima being a two-timer is one of those things I can genuinely think of.

Personally if Tenma would fall for Harima at some point I'd find it hilariously ironic if by that time Harima would have moved on to someone who really does care about him. After all by now he has Yakumo, Eri, and Tae as choices.

Besides I like Harima and Hanai's rivalry over Yakumo more than Harima's whining over how Kurasama is messing up his life. Harima vs Hanai on the school rooftop for the win. XD

Not to mention that with Eri and Yakumo they found interest in Harima because of his actions, but no matter what Harima does for Tenma she either ignores it, misunderstands what he was trying to do, or goes into a complete uber bitch fest and starts accusing him of things he hadn't done. Her accusations of Harima being a two-timer is one of those things I can genuinely think of.

Did you miss the part when she says that she regrets misunderstanding Harima in umm...was it episode 19? And well...after she finally understood what Harima was doing when he was at the house (being a mangaka) - he went and broke that big dish that she did a lot of work on. But did she storm in at him and point the finger for that? No, they shook hands in forgiveness. :)

And man, I think I was a big anti-Harima/Tenma fan at that time but watched that episode like how many times. :arg More than the Eri/Harima episode as well. :scry

I know there is probably a topic in the bowels of this forum somewhere for this but Im not eager to bump an old topic if I can avoid it.

I started downloading this show off the Fan Plus Downloads section not too long ago and got the first six episodes.

I have to say that yes it is indeed a bit cutesy and as such more of a girl's anime (not trying to be sexist), but what is everyone else's opinion on this series?

Harima is freakin' win. He is the true star. Not that loser Tenma.

and please School Rumble is a love comedy. It's no where near being as shoujo as Ouran High School Host Club that proclaims to be a love comedy but is really a shoujo harem series.

but if you want manly school series then Cromartie High School may be for you.

If it's an anime title topic, it's always best to use the established thread rather then start a new one. That's the whole point of compiling a directory thread (http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=143075)

*merges*

School Rumble= One of my favorite comedy series of all time. The romance element is a bit frustrating since their isn't any resolution in terms of Harima's love life, but the comedy and relationship aspect of the series is very entertaining.

I don't think School Rumble is a "girl's" anime per se. In fact, I think it's published in Shounen Jump. It has more to do with comedy rather than romance and drama which doesn't necessarily have to be associated with a particular gender.


On a side note, Harima is definitely one of my favorite characters in terms of manga/anime. Harima is definitely win.

I am a Guy and I really liked this anime, I have been known to like some animes that are supposedly aimed at girls so I guess me saying that does not say a lot.

But its a great comady eather ways.

And over 90% of the population of wannabe forumers (school rumble forum) is male...I feel so alone there. :(

There should be more characters out there like Harima. :noworry

Harima is one of the best written characters I've ever come across. His seiyuu delivers his character perfectly in animated form. :nod

^ School Rumble English Dub Clip...


Not only does it sound like crap, ALL the Japanese pop culture references that make this show so funny will undoubtedly be lost in translation....


Another anime series ruined by dubbing :(

I think harima's voice is pretty good. I actually laughed at the "oh crap" at the end. some anime refs will be lost, but I don't think it'll be that bad

Ewwww. I might get used to the dub if I watch more, but if I'm going to rewatch School Rumble, I'll stick to the sub.

Nope, none yet. There will probably be one once the manga finishes.

So how does the manga look right now? Is it close to the end or does it look like it'll go on for quite a long time?

Gene

Right now it seems pretty close to ending. Though knowing the mangaka, he can easily hit the reset button and it could go on for a while longer.

None of the relationships are decided. Tenma, Harima, Eri, Yakumo, and Kasuma...we still have to see how their storylines will be resolved.

From the translation I read, Karasuma tells Harima that he's going to ask Tenma to be his girlfriend. Though it's weird since he's leaving for America soon.

Not to mention that the walking festival in the current manga is said to be the last school rumble event. Meaning this is the last arc.

^Oh, seriously? :cry I'm both sad and happy about this. First of all, I'm sad because such a great manga is coming to an end. However, I'm happy because I stopped reading School Rumble because of its circular plot (it was fun, but it didn't seem like it was going anywhere so I decided to put it on hold until there were signs of an end). Now, I get to dl the school rumble chapters and catch up :nod

Yeah I doubt it's going to be stretched into another year. The ending of the series was pretty clear when Kurasama transfers to America. That time has come, and now everything is coming together. The walking festival will decide everything.

and really despite it's circular plot I still love school rumble.

Gene

As much I want School Rumble to end, I hope the walking festival isn't the last arc. I want a continuation from the Kyoto arc where Eri's fiancée comes back.

I never said I don't love it. In fact, I found School Rumble hilarious and it was a good break from the more serious animes/mangas that I keep up with. However, I have low patience and found the circular plots to be a bit frustrating for me. So, I decided to find a good stopping point, (which I now forget lol) and then drop it until I hear about signs of a conclusion.

However, now that I get to catch up, I feel super psyched! :nuts All I have to do now is find where I stopped :oh

AAHHH the manga is ending.

Am sort of happy/sad about it.
1) it means that the anime is probably coming by then.
2) sad because pairings fans are definetely gonna suffer :(

From the spoiler i read thing, i guess things are going the way i predicted :P.

Oh well, at least they got the 'Kenji Harimashi' to fix over that 'Harii Makkenji' in the original - that got laughs. Wonder how they going to explain that up when they actually meet Harry. A lot better than a certain sub that thought 'Harii Makkenji' was actually Harima Kenji :rotfl - which causes much confusion for a watcher that doesn't know how to read basic Japanese. Makes me wonder if sub groups even bother checking a series' website to check the characters' names to make sure.

I'll give them claps if they can make a convincing 'translation' of all the Japanese puns. I'm waiting for that Koi pun. :D Any fish name out there that sounds like 'Love'? :laugh

well school rumble is first and foremost a comedy albeit a romantic comedy, but still a comedy. This is just how it works. I guess for pure comedy you'd have been better off reading Cromartie High School lol.

I don't really care about the romance though. I mean it's not like this is Love Hina or anything the comedy has always been center stage. I didn't mean to accuse you of not liking it though if I did.

Anyways I hope you do enjoy catching up. School rumble is an awesome series still and will be until the end despite all the resets. XD

I'm really in a big trouble here and I hope anyone of you may be capable of helping me...

Does anyone of you knows of a currently active site with DDL episodes of School Rumble 2nd Term subbed by Wannabe Fansubs? All sites I have with DDL of SR2 have the Your-Mom subbed version.

I really need an hand here...

I checked AniDB, they got stalled at the beginning of this year on episode 16. I have up to episode 10, and the sendspace link of episode 11 of SR3 thread is dead.

If no one can find the remaining episodes by WF, at least there should be any of Nuke-Fansubs. I'm going to search for those, so plz, if anyone knows of DDL of WF eps 11-16 or Nuke eps 11-26 plz tell me.
