I didn't think this episode was that great. It was funny in the first stanza and the twist at the end was hilarious, but I thought the majority of the survival game (so far) was rather tedious. Particularly the scene with Shigeo and Madoka. I found that very much overdone and it wasn't nearly as funny as I think they intended.
Mako was good in Ichijou's voice... particularly when she sang. I thought when she spoke she was trying just a little too hard to emulate Ichijou's old seiyuu, but her singing is quite strong. I'm not exactly sure what the point of having the song when they did was though. It's probably part of School Rumble's patented style of pretending to be ultra serious when it's not, but I didn't think it worked brilliantly this time. I suppose that could be said of the entire episode as well. A few humourous moments, but not nearly as funny as last week's episode. |

wow u didnt like this episode? i thought it was FANTASTIC!
i knew i couldnt wait to see this one ever since they showed it in the ending previews of the first series. nakamura showing up was great. that is comedy at its finest. i really hope that itoko makes a stunning scene also. and i cant wait to see what karasuma does. shigeo being shot in the back by hi sgirlfriend. i bet it affects him emotionally in future episodes. cant wait if they add any puns to it. im so glad they made this longer than one episode. i hope they continue with the serious yet misplaced humor. |

I'm going to have to agree with everything Sorrow-K said.
This week's episode was enjoyable, but no where near the quality of last week's episode. This one just felt crazy all around. While I enjoyed it, I would definitely appreciate episodes like last week more. Too many "ehh...that's not funny" parts in this episode. By the way, why do we care about some group singing? Or who cares about Madoka and Shigeo's relationship? Where'd that come from? Why'd they waste near 5 minutes of the episode with it? *sighs* I give it a 7. |

They were one of the few successful couples in the series. Not a big fan of Madoka's anymore though. |

It just didn't have the comedy that the first episode had. Or maybe all the Harima x Yakumo action in the first episode spoiled me...
This episode had to much... continuity? ^^ One long battle, albeit very interesting with over the top seriousness. Go Harima! And while we're at it, that crossdressing commando butler, too! =O (DO NOT WANT!)

Disappointing episode. First part (up to 7:20 minutes) ok, the rest was simply not good. Not enjoyable, slow, boring. Yeah, it was "Battle Royalish" , but that certainly isn't my cup of tea. And I don't expect that from SR. Imho, of course. Plus, no Tenma? no Yakumo? How could I even call it School Rumble then? First time a School Rumble episode (first season and OVAS included) let me that cold.
Total failure. 4/10

It was indeed not all that much the typical SR episode. But i think it was great non the less. Even though there werent that much of those "SR super funny moments", this episode have still proven the SR-anime-teams writing skills. They are also skilled in animating action arcs. Even though i know its just the typical "very serious when its actually not serious", its still done very good. And i liked the songs.
I cant complain about this episode. It was different but it was good. |

Just a m'eh episode for me. Not all that much of Eri again, and Harima didn't really do all that much. Yakumo wasn't even there. Too many shots of Suou just hiding behind a desk. I have nothing against Suou, but at least have her do something. I had no problems with Ichijou's new VA though.

Haha, yeah, Js2756. Call me ignorant, but I didn't even know who the hell Suou was until this episode. In fact, if you showed me a picture of 5 characters, one of them being Suou, I probably couldn't pick her out. Damn I'm good.
Main characters are my main focus. I don't understand episodes like this that focus on secondary characters. |

6/10 for me ...
The begining (double mummies ! ) and the ending ( Eri with mustache ?! ) were at school Rumble level. But the overdone seriousness was a little ... overdone for me ! ^^ About Madoka, I think she shot Shigeo in the back, not because she truly wanted the maid café, but probably because he didn't figure out what she really wanted. It's like buying a wrong present for a girlfriend. It's a bad sign of misunderstanding (yes, girls are more sensitive about that sort of things ^^ ). Her killing by the class rep appears to me somehow like a redemption. So I don't blame her for what she's done. The technical part was a little missed imo. And the VA for Ichijou felt weird for me (maybe a matter of time to get used to it ... ). At least, Harima and Hanai are at their top. And I'm looking forward the next episode to see how they will settle their quarrel.
