One of the most enjoyable episodes of School Rumble 2nd Term that have been aired so far(on the side note, not sure if it's just me, but this season of School Rumble does not impress me as much as it did in the last season, though still great).

While the misunderstanding between Harima and Yakumo worsens, you see changes in Yakumo's psychology.

Tenma and Harima on the other hand, are as stupid as ever...

SPOILER WARNING

Another series I have been neglecting...

This episode deals with Tenma's birthday, along with some development between Harima and Yakumo(I still don't know what does Harima see in Tenma... I think it would be really interesting if he gets together with either Yakumo or Eri.).

SPOILER WARNING

A new character is introduced in this character! and her name is... Tawaraya Satsuki(俵屋さつき). HMM... Tawaraya... I've seen that somewhere...

Other than that, this episode isn't that exciting... Harima, Sawachika, and Yakumo barely made their appearance, and Tenma is... well, not doing so well.

Tawaraya wants to form a female basketball club, the girls(and a guy) from 2-C were asked to help out. Tenma seems especially excited.

However, because a basketball team consists of 5 people, and they have 6, Tenma was cut from the team...

They also found out Tawaraya has a crush on Asou!

Tawaraya Satsuki! and you see she's in the same class as Yakumo.

Suou and Tawaraya on an one-on-one match.

Tenma dangling around on a swing, as she hopes someone would quit the team...

As you might have noticed already... the spoiler contents are no longer staring you at the face when you come in here!(good news for those who haven't watched the episode yet, and doesn't wanna get spoiled) Click on "read more" if you wanna see everything!

Now the culture festival is over, the story takes a side trip and the gang goes for picnic!

And it's the guys who will be making the meal!(and carrying the packages... and doing the other chores...) to avoid the rice ball tragedy from happening again!(yes, those are rice balls came straight from hell)

To impress the girls, the guys(Harima, Hanai, Imadori) went out on their quest to search for the perfect ingredient,(hmm... I see flash backs of... oh yes, Iron Chef) and the race is on!

The second part of the show packs some insider looks at the part time jobs the guys/gals are doing... the best of them all is Takano's secret job of course(if you remember it from the previous School Rumble series).

a scene came straight out of a horror movie

Harima vs the King Crab!
 Hanai vs the Boar God!

Yakumo in bunny girl suit!(it's good even though it's just Hanai's imagination!)

reality is always cruel...(the top text says: earth quake scale 4, Wakayama City)

Lala is pounding the life out of Imadori...

YAY! The festival continues, and now it's time for the play!(this is where I left off on the manga)

It's the sleeping beauty! and she(?) is Harima... for reasons that could not be easily explained...

and Yakumo is the evil witch! eh... wait... isn't she in class 1-D? and this is a play done by class 2-C? @_@

The prince is Sawachika! a very descent one too.

Let's see who will steal the princess' heart(or kiss...)!

It's the six knights! and Sawachika is the prince!

OMG... princess, what have you been eating!?

RUN! It's the evil witch!

The winner gets the princess! a princess is a princess after all.

It's the KISS!
 A friendly dance of the two rivals.
