Hmm...seems like Hanai is getting a push since the last few chapters he's just been an extra and he was beaten by a huge Kouta-kun and his grades lowered due to fact he attended less classes 'caused by an ACCIEDENT. It's good to see him develop though I wished we saw how'd he go toe to toe with Tougo.
BTW any of you think the covers affect every chapter? Since it's the Mikoto and Hanai cover it's flute faction, then Onigiri then the Flag, yet customable cover because of the S.D. stickers of angle Eri, Yakumo, devil Yakumo and Tenma to Kidsmeal or Monkey faction...IMO this manga vol. will turn our heads insideout since school rumble is a guru-guru anime. XD
