I apologize. I didn't mean to say it in a rude way. I guess I've picked up some nasty habits from a certain famous image board site.

So again I'm sorry for making it seem like I was trying to be rude or anything. That wasn't my intntion at all. So I'll ask my quuestion again.

I can't read Japanese. So could you please translate it for me?

I must say, Harima was pretty damn awesome in this chapter.

[HayashiTakara]

I swear... SR better not be an Oudou ending... I'll be pissed. It wouldn't make sense at all. Tenma has ZERO feelings for Harima, and even if she found out his identity it wouldn't change anything, especially since she didn't fell for him then. So if she ends up with Harima, it'll be a rebound relationship... and those kind of relationships never last.

[taichikun14]

This chapter was awesome. Tenma angst, Harima whooping Karasuma, Takano having no plan?!?!?! It's everything I've wanted to see in School Rumble (except for HarimaxTenma) !!! And the announcement for third term was just....THE BEST news I've heard all year!!

[longshot]

hmm best way to describe chapter 263 is....

MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!

[eMpTy265]

+ points for more Harima coolness, which is somewhat of a rarity...
(At least when it doesn't backfire in someway or another)

I'm sort of confused at the ending of 264 though... where'd Harima&Karasuma go?
(Don't tell me Harima took the forbidden BL route )

[TwinRivers]

All i have to say is....well fought Karasuma...well fought...but in th3 end...

HARIMA PWNS ALL!!! XD

This battle ended nicely, considering how it couldve have gone horribly wrong in so many different ways...(ie: Harima wins, someone walks in, then is accused and hated...or Harima accidentally killing Karasuma because of his sickness...and many many more *the imagination goes wild)

Now it looks as if there is a subtle peace at the end...and finaly seeing Karasuma give some sort of emotion makes it a hell of a lot more satisfying!

[kenjiharima]

Harima is the strongest there is in School Rumble. Tenma is his only weak point.

I knew somewhere down the line getting his bad ass delinquent style back would serve a purpose since in the old chapters he's weaken.

Spoiler:

1st time you'll see Karasuma actually has emotions. Mad, Hurt, Injured and sad. It's a TOP NOTCH chapter.

now waits paiently for the translations.

[TwinRivers]

I dont like to think of it as "Weakened" i think his fighting spirit has just fallen asleep, bored with his love for Tenma...and yet that very same love woke it up.

And in 262~263 he was unleashing some serious hell.

nothing against karasuma of course.

[Swampstorm]

Reading the chapter, it actually seems like a draw. Neither side was willing to give any ground to the very end. It's fairly impressive that Karasuma could hold his own against Harima in a close range fight, despite the size difference.

In the past, it was easy to describe Harima as being peerless in the way he throws himself into everything he does. For the very first time, it looks like he's finally met his match. It's hard not to be impressed with Karasuma after the past several chapters.

Hmm? I always expected Karasuma to have the upper hand, simply because he's such an oddball character with an arbitrary number of skills. So I swung more towards being impressed that Harima was able to keep him pinned down.

Also, KARASUMA RAGE!!!!!

I can dig it.

[kenjiharima]

I dig Harima's fists in Karasuma's face. Harima is the underdog in this fight. Now it's time for him to step up again as the delinquent bad ass kicker.

And remember he just got out of the hospital after his appendix operation. Harima that is, since we dunno the his also 100% healed, he's been pooping in the last few chapters lol. Fairly even match imho.

[Owaranai Destiny]

Holy crap, I don't really know what to make of the last page.

Still, even though Harima won eventually, the focus of this chapter was on Karasuma, and boy did he make an impact with those fiery expressions and heartfelt words.

And it looks like the misunderstanding is still going on.

One last phrase: Poor Tani-sensei. First he had to do all the shit for the female teachers, and now his bike goes kaput.

Yeah...well i feel that the chapter should be focused more on Karasuma, which it was! It was everything behind that blank/ bland mask he wore all year. He deserved at least one epic moment before he left, and he certainly got it!

It makes me wonder though...where does the series go now that Karasuma is gone? I doubt KJ is gonna make it this easy for an odou ending...

In any case, School rumble has taken a new turn...and i dont know about you all, but i am interested as hell into finding out where the manga is headed.

Ive always had a quiet respect for that guy! I hope hes got good things going for him.

[kenjiharima]

That Guy seriously needs a B chapter to have a girlfriend. LOL

Now I am excited what will happen next! A school rumble without Karasuma in the future? Hmmm...will it happen?

[Supah Em]

karasuma snaps and then a direct announcement of feelings

this really reeks of true oudou....


great, cuz i'm rooting for a flag ending.

me too, but i doubt it more and more.
Eri and Harima don't have any chemistry the last 40? chapters and with Karasuma gone, i think? Odou is looking a bit more likely. It so hard to predict the next chapter

[arkxkra]

wow, the fight between Harima and karasuma was awesome.

I seem like going to end, I hope not >.<".

I also hope Tenma and Harima not together, how should i said, both of them not that match(this is what i think >.>").

looking forward to nxt chap...

[DragonX]

Hey DragonX here! My japanese is far from perfect but I would be happy to help translate so feel free to through me a text and I'll take a shot at it. Not very good with kanji though so narrations won't be my strong point though!(I still think I can beat the hell outta the google translator though >.>)
Yeah I got hooked on School Rumble just recently but I've been reading the text straight outta of the book and now I'm at 19. Yeah I'm also an Onigiri faction supporter but I'll try and not let that bias my posts(too much hehe) well then ?????!

[TwinRivers]

Heck yeah DragonX Onigiri all the way!~!!!!!!

but i dont know who it is you talk to to help translate some of the manga. THough if you do translate some of the new stuff..... be sure to put the spoiler warning before it.
