This episode had both humour and angst. There have always been hints that Yakumo likes Harima, but they never took the concept far until this episode. It’s clear that Tenma doesn’t have any sort of affection for Harima so there’s really no way for it to end the way Harima wants it to. Harima doesn’t appear to have any feelings for Yakumo so I can’t see anything long term developing there either. Although I enjoyed this episode, I’m now more confused than entertained. My biggest question for the ending is what are they going to do with Eri. I kind of doubt this would really be the “end” of the “School Rumble” series since there’s still so much potential left with the other characters. I was kind of hoping for a comedy-focused finale, but it doesn’t seem like that will be the case.
