Second Term Episode 20 Discussion

7 for me. First part was good, second part was best (great music btw), third part was too random.

Spoiler:

The "harem" and Harima flipping off Eri scenes were funny, everything else was just weird...especially Yakumo saying "Tenma". I think they should've gone with a full-on Sakura Wars parody instead of those...body paint suits

Spoiler for body painted suits:

The body painted suits reminds me of Neo Ranga another anime that has body paints similar to what the girls wore in the battle simulation

first part ~ imadori is such a big baby XD and the way he teases ichijou is just evil...but funny XD its great ^^
second part ~ sweet, touching and nice change to the mood *thumbs up*
third part ~ haha evil evil...classic comedy even yakumo went over to the dark side haha!

the only part of 20 i liked was the ichijou imadori scene in the first 1/3. otherwise, i really thought the ep was atrocious. heh, i haven't been this disappointed at school rumble since the basketball arc, one hour of pure meh.

[akurashy]

third part- reminded me of koi koi 7 lol , does anyone know what parody was it from ? or it was just a totally random thing that they just did out of boredom lol , then mai-otome (though it did feel like mai-otome o.o)

i guess i give it a 9 since it made me laugh XD

[i0td]

The fillers (I consider it filler because it doesn't follow the central storyline) in this episode were a bit disappointing. It was simply too random, even for School Rumble lol

The only part that I really enjoyed was the first, involving Ichijou and Imadori. I'm glad that they got some screen time together, because I'm definitely a fan of the couple, especially Ichi-san .

The middle third of the show would probably have been better if we've seen a bit more of the minor characters. Fuyuki the camera guy in particular hasn't shown up since when? ...the early parts of the first season?

[miko tian]

hahaha i actually liked fuyuki and nara a bit in early season 1 because they showed promise the first few times we saw them. but now ... feh ... fuyuki is just *there* and nara does nothing except tag along with yoshidayama and nishimoto. although nigakki tried to focus a lot more on side characters, the minor characters really got shunted, so when they appeared in this ep as focus characters (without harima involvement ) i found them kinda lacking

eh ... i'm kinda disappointed at these eps to be honest, but next week's ep looks promising

oh yea ... is it just me or does it sound like there's no ep next week? at the end of 21, i got that impression

[Red_eyes]

I just wanted to stress how cute Ichijou was with her hair down! And deathkillz, did you convert to flag?!

welll the seiyu for tenma is also the seiyu for the main girl in mai otome. anyway, the part where harima flippin at eri was priceless.

neva! im still rooting for yakumo...but lately eri has been gaining some points thats all

[Shredder]

Useless ep. At least there was some harem and fanservice. Also Eri is back to her old self, it makes me remember why she was my fav. I like that Sagano girl, not bad. The dorky girl with glasses needs to go.

Eri blush was good too. She's definitely back on the rise.

That Suga robot shows up in the third popularity contest chapter. Looks like they decided to add the Suga robot in this episode...

BTW Yes the when Eri thinks Harima is looking at her and starts blushing which causes Harima to say "It's not you Bitch!!!" the flips her off was one of the funniest things I've seen in School Rumble lol.

Have just watched eps 20. And honestly, it's a real let down for me. Sure, it's got some funny moments, but each story is just too random. Also, having watched last week's ep with tenma and harima, I was expecting them to continue developing the story.

I just hope that the ending for SR2 will not be like the first season. Even if it does not end, I hope there'll be some sort of closure. The ending for season 1 really caught me off guard, and it took me a few days (I think it was 3) before I could say something other than "WTF" and "WTH".

I've glimpsed at eps 21, and I'm not looking forward to watching it. Probably gonna watch it just before I sleep... to help me sleep.

Sorry, guys, I give it a 5.

First part: I know it is in the manga. Although I like Dojibiron (that song...xD) and the characters (Ichijou and Imadori), I think It´s quite simple...empty.

Second part: I don't understand this part very well, I mean, the dialogue between Yuuki and Fuyuki:

Spoiler:

Why is she being so harsh with him? Why does she say he looks down on her, that he scorns the opinion of others? What's happening between them? It seems like the author want to give more depth to that characters, but it just doesn't make sense, because we don't know anything of them! I only understood that Yuuki loves Hanai but she thinks he's in love with Mikoto.

Third part: Well, the premise is ok but I don't find it funny at all. I think it only contains fanservice. I don't know why they are including new side stories when they have lots of much better stuff in the manga.

I almost couldn't remember who Fuyuki was. Anyway, the whole thing just seems like the anime was trying to create some depth on the side characters and then proceeding to fall flat on its face.
