Round and Round in School Rumble

Okay, it’s time to write something about another series that also become one of my obsession: School Rumble, which is a manga written by Kobayasi Jin. The main story is about high-school love live with all the troubles. Wait, don’t said it’s boring yet, because in this manga we will see a polygonal love live!! Yes, a Polygon!! Not a triangle or square. The genre itself is more Comedy-Romance, than drama. That’s why I like it. Because drama is too boring for me. Well… for me, this series also serve as something to fullfil my need-for-romance attitude, since One Piece don’t have any XD

The story itself started with one of the female protagonist, Tsukamoto Tenma, entering her new semester as a 2nd year student. She looked very eager to start this new semester, because it means she could meet her crush Karasuma Ooji. Well… fate seems very kind to her as both of them ended in a same class. BUT…… unfortunatelly Karasuma will transfer out 2 days after. Not giving up, Tenma will think of a way so that Karasuma won’t leave. And being Tenma, the way she stoped Karasuma really make me LOLed XD

Meanwhile, somewhere else, our male protagonist, Harima Kenji, also looked very eager to start his new semester that he finished out a gang with ease, before riding on his motorcycle to school. Yup, he is a deliquent, with more brawn than brain. And, he has crush for Tenma. Thus he hoped to be in the same class as her. Now this time, fate seems very cruel to him, because he couldn’t find his name on the board. In fact, he didn’t even passed 1st grade ^_^; but with his way, he managed to asked to be in the same class with Tenma.

Now…… from here on, the story will progress as we will meet many other characters such as Tenma’s friends: Sawachika Eri, Suou Mikoto, and Takano Akira. Not to forget Tenma’s sister Tsukamoto Yakumo. These five female characters is considered the main protagonist. Of course there’re also tons of side characters that will have their moments (KJ is so fair, isn’t he?) but I won’t write them here, it’s too many.

So at first, you would thought School Rumble is another triangle highschool love story, but then later on the series, you will see that it’s not. The main love problem will be around Karasuma being like by Tenma (but Karasuma loves….. curry ^_^;), Tenma being like by Harima, Harima being like by Eri, Eri being like by Yoshidayama, etc. So it’s basically a polygon. Complicated?? NO! KJ could make his story very funny (so full with missunderstanding here and there), and interesting. At first, we also will thought that Tenma is the main character, but later on the series, Eri took her place, as the story will be more around her, rather than Tenma.

Now my fav character in this series, as you maybe guessed it already, is Sawachika Eri. She is a tsundere type of girl who act differently from what she actually feels. At first, she seems like a typical mix blood (English-Japanese) beautiful blond rich girl. But later on the series, her character got a tremendous amount of character development, that make her such a complicated character. ^_^ it seems that I really like complicated type character XD Then my favourite male character would be Harima Kenji, the deliquent with more brawn than brain, but he actually a really kind person, and he loves animals. As always, that make Eri-Harima (or also known as Flag faction) my favourite pair in this series.

Now, these days, it seems that the series started the final arc. But with KJ, who knows what’ll happen. If you’re interested to know more about this series, then go to Wanabe wiki or Wanabe forums on the right side of my blog.
