I had fairly high expectations for their New Years episode. Luckily I wasn’t disappointed by what they had to offer. I thought there were lots of good parts from the beginning until the end. The episode begins with one of its longest introductions yet. It’s another “Initial D” parody, which I don’t think they have done since the first episode of season one. As for development, I guess one can interpret the events as somewhat developing the key relationships further. Of course, it just isn’t a “School Rumble” episode without their style of comedy. There wasn’t any particular scene which I felt was extremely funny, but the many moments of moderate humour adds up.
