While there is a decided lack of rumble in School Rumble, there’s more hilarious humdingers than any single dinger can hum… Look that one up! And while there is a truck full of pigs, a giraffe, flying saucers and crazy dream sequences, none of that’s even close to what this show’s about. (Though I would probably watch that show, too!)
Here’s what you need to know: Sophomore cutie Tenma is completely crushed on classmate Karasuma past the point of freakin’ out. Tough guy Harima, with his own delinquent style of freak, has a long-standing crush on Tenma… And Karasuma? Can you say clueless? He’s pretty much all about the curry. Mmm… Curry!
With enough tangled triangles for an entire semester of geometry, just keep in mind… School Rumble – The absolutely funniest show you’ll ever see that’s not about anything that rumbles… Ever!

I’ve watched a lot of anime and this one has to be among the funniest I’ve seen. There’s at least one laugh out loud moment per episode. A friend of mine let me watch the 1st season and I loved it, and couldn’t wait to see the 2nd. This is definitely well worth your time! I never watch with dubs(well, I did with Cowboy Bebop as it was very well done) so I can’t comment on the quality, but the voice acting in Japanese is as usual top notch. Definitely 2 thumbs up from me,

This series is one of the love it or leave it anime series as it’s very comedic satire and humor of other anime genres is very big on the show but the biggest is the usual love triangle but in this series times that to about ten and you pretty much have the story on what’s going on with half the high school kids. The series tries to focus mostly on the seemingly main pair by the name of Tenma Tsukamoto a young female high school student with the feelings of first love for a popular student by the name of Ooji Karasuma(Who has no idea of her feelings for him at all) who she has trouble trying to confess her feelings for and than the young delinquent male student who is in love with her by the name of Kenji Harima. The series other characters get intermixed with their own inner romance as well as some of the characters infatuations going to the mentioned pair as well causing more mayhem for their own agendas in trying to get their true love. What I really appreciate was the price for this box set considering that the two season box sets are still about $60.00 dollars apiece this set was a real bargain, and the extras that come with the set are also pretty good as well you’ll get the usual trailers but also interviews from the Japanese crew and creator of the the show, and t.v. spots and commercials of the show which are a little entertaining to see as well. The animation is pretty good for what you expect the show to be with their off the wall antics and situations throughout the show and the voice cast for both the Japanese subbed and English Dubbed crew were just right for their roles, so if you’re a fan of series like Ranma 1/2 or Fruit Basket give this series a try you’re sure to become a fan of the series….
