School Rumble, Vol. 4

Product Description "A hilariously cute send-up of the high school experience!" --- Anime Insider Summer?s in full swing, crazy wild with camp fires and midnight capers? There?s even a giraffe in the gym?!? Is this the cutest show ever, or what? Not really? But what you can say about School Rumble?s fourth installment: There?s simply no way you saw this one coming! (A pretty safe statement, considering the entire series has been nothing if not a surprise!) Tenma?s busy spinning tales, keeping the girls tangled in frenzied feuds while Harima still can?t get his tongue to work! And Imadori? Well this guy just can?t stop himself from hittin? on anything that moves? And even though Karasuma doesn?t get much action this time around, not to worry? There?s still plenty of curry! School Rumble ? The absolutely funniest show you?ll ever see that?s not about anything that rumbles? Ever! Each volume of School Rumble contains an exclusive magnet sheet. Amazon.com The misunderstandings don't just multiply as the high school comedy School Rumble continues--they increase exponentially. Harima continues to draw manga and displays an exceptional talent. But when it comes to interpersonal relations, he displays an even more exceptional talent for creating disasters. Whenever he tries to declare his affection for Tenma, either he loses his nerve or disaster intervenes. Only Tenma's younger sister Yakumo, the one sane member of the cast, notices Harima's kindness to animals, and everyone else is too busy talking to listen to her. Tenma pursues the nebbishy Karasuma, martial arts champion Hanai chases Yakumo, and Imadori pursues every girl in the school. In episode 18, Imadori goes on a date with the painfully shy, athletic Karen. Dojibiron, the movie Tenma chooses for them, spoofs mecha series, from Gundam to Voltran, in one of the most outrageous anime send-ups since "Gekigangar 3" in Martian Successor Nadesico. (Rated TV PG, suitable for ages 12 and older: comic violence, risqué humor, tobacco and alcohol use) --Charles Solomon
