At the start of the new school year, Tenma wishes with all her heart to be placed in the same class as Karasuma so she can one day express her love to him. Her wish is granted, but she is devastated to find out that Karasuma is about to move abroad. Later, Tenma tries to break the ice with Karasuma while studying in the library, without much success. By the end of the day, for all her good intentions, Tenma is no closer to Karasuma than before. Looking for a way to strengthen their relationship, she hits on the idea of cycling to school together. Unknown to Tenma, her admirer, Harima, has had the same idea. Thanks to Karasuma's abnormal cycling speed, both Tenma and Harima are completely exhausted by the time they reach school the following day. | ||||
2 | "Tough Test! Trapped in the Bathroom! The School Physical!" Transliteration: "Wakaranai Tesuto! Derarenai Toire! Arienai Shintai Kensa!" (Japanese: わからないテスト!でられないトイレ!ありえない身体検査!) | October 12, 2004 | August 28, 2007 | |
When Tenma inadvertently breaks exam protocol during an important test, Harima decides to win her affection with a heroic gesture; handing in his own test in the place of her disqualified one. Unfortunately, he scores zero marks, and the gesture is completely lost on Tenma. During breaktime, Tenma goes to use the toilets, but is startled to see Karasuma outside. Not wanting him to see her doing something supposedly indelicate, she decides to wait until he leaves before coming out into the corridor. The following day is the occasion of a school-wide health checkup. While most of the girls are dreading having their weight measured by a stranger, Tenma is fascinated by the idea of learning yet more trivia about Karasuma-- his height, weight, shoe size and so on. She plans to pose as one of the assistant nurses to get access to the measurements. However, when she is assigned to a "doctor", she finds him to be none other than Harima, who has clearly had the same idea. The checkup is cancelled indefinitely. | ||||
3 | "See and Sketch! Letter on an Arrow! Pajama Party Confessions!" Transliteration: "Mitsumete Sukecchi! Neratte Yabumi! Oshiete Pajama Pātī!" (Japanese: 見つめてスケッチ!ねらって矢文!教えてパジャマパーティー!) | October 19, 2004[2] | August 28, 2007 | |
As an art assignment, 2C have to draw pictures of one another. Still seeking a way to express her feelings to Karasuma, Tenma takes an idea from her favorite television series, The Three Who Were Slashed. She writes a letter and attaches it to an arrow, which will then be fired to land near Karasuma, so he can read her message without Tenma having to go through the embarrassment of presenting it to him. Unfortunately, Tenma is a lousy shot and Karasuma has an almost supernatural ability to step out of the way. Tenma has a sleepover with her friends Akira, Eri and Mikoto. Together they talk about love and the successful ways someone might express their feelings. Many of these have metaphorical names and descriptions. Harima has also heard these tips; however, he is not intelligent enough to understand the metaphorical language, and takes everything literally. | ||||
4 | "Pigs Go Oink! Cats Go Meow! Frogs and Water Imps Go Ribbit!" Transliteration: "Buta wa Bū-bū! Neko wa Nyā! Kaeru mo Kappa mo Gā-gā-gā!" (Japanese: ブタはブーブー!ネコはニャー!カエルもカッパもガーガーガー!) | October 26, 2004[3] | August 28, 2007 | |
Tenma is desperate to sit next to Karasuma on the coach when a school trip is announced. She tries to make the occupant of her desired seat feel motion sickness and get up, but ends up feeling ill herself. Meanwhile, Harima is hoping to sit next to Tenma, and when the coach stops for a few minutes, he tries to get back on before the others in order to grab the right seat. Yakumo leaves the house early the following day, carrying an extra lunchbox. On a rainy day, Tenma wonders about how Karasuma will get home from school, and wants to share an umbrella with him. He refuses politely, saying he already has a "kappa" outfit. She assumes he is referring to a particular brand of raincoat, but is taken by surprise when it turns out he is actually wearing a kappa costume from some play or other. Holding a large fake leaf over his head, he disappears into the rain. | ||||

When Tenma is accidentally locked in a storage room after school, she decides to look upon it as practice for survival in the wild. Later, Harima tries to figure out who is the boy Tenma is in love with (after remembering her say there is another person she likes), and concludes her affection is directed to him. He rides to meet her on a motorcycle, but has an accident on the way after unintentionally crossing a red light. Taken to hospital with minor injuries, he is visited by Tenma bringing flowers. Harima is flustered, and resorts to asking his cousin Itoko for advice. Itoko obliges with her usual mischievous malice. | ||||
7 | "Pool Cleaning! Pool Racing! Pool Warring!" Transliteration: "Pūru de Seisō! Pūru de Bōsō! Pūru de Sensō!" (Japanese: プールで清掃!プールで暴走!プールで戦争!) | November 16, 2004[6] | October 2, 2007 | |
When it looks as if Yakumo will be forced to clean the school swimming pool, Hanai steps in and declares that his class will do it instead. A brief soap fight between Hanai and Harima (because of a misunderstanding from the latter when he hears the former speaking of "Tsukamoto-kun", not noticing he is talking about Yakumo, and not Tenma) quickly turns into a pool hockey match, with the winning team deciding what the class will do for the next school festival; a food stand or play. Hanai is firmly on the side of the play, hoping he'll have a chance to play a prince opposite Yakumo's Sleeping Beauty. Meanwhile, the non-participants become bookmakers, cheerleaders and commentators, while Fuyuki snaps revealing shots of all the female players (much to Harima's anger and Hanai's annoyance) and one lone student, Karen Ichijou, diligently tries to clean the pool. Trying to turn the water back on, Karen is startled and accidentally breaks the tap, soaking everyone. | ||||

After school, Eri decides to head for the supermarket, going after ingredients for nikujaga (beef and potato stew) following Mikoto's tips. The next day, Tenma decides to make use of the idea and has Yakumo make two lunchboxes with curry, one of them for Karasuma, so she can get next to him. However, she makes a mistake and takes Yakumo's rice instead. Karasuma manages to get around situation by making onigiri for him and Tenma with the rice. As it turns out, Harima spots them having lunch together, and feels so heartbroken the next day that he refuses to go to school and spends his day watching TV. Watching an episode of "The Three Who Were Slashed", he imagines that what he saw was nothing but a misunderstanding, and concludes that Tenma and Karasuma may be siblings after watching a Star Wars spoof. Trying to see things in an optimistic light, he is unexpectedly (or not) visited by his fighting rival, Noboru Tennouji, who had challenged him the day before. Unable to react due to his broken feelings, Harima takes the beating of his life. | ||||

Harima decides to drown his sorrows by drawing a Fist of the North Star-inspired manga, in which he draws himself as the hero, Karasuma as the villain and Tenma as the damsel in distress. Later, Harima sits in the rain, convinced that he is a failure (having lost Tenma and his job prospect), when a woman (who we will later know as Tae Anegasaki) approaches him and offers him shelter and an ear. In the meantime, Tenma is trying to cook by herself in order to win Karasuma over once and for all. Although he initially resists helping, since he does not want Tenma to see him anymore in his shame, he ends up jumping into the canal to save Iori; Tenma thanks him for his help, but does not recognize Harima in his new look and mistakes him for a kappa. | ||||
10 | "Please, God! Please, Genuine Animal Fortune-Telling! Please, Tenma!" Transliteration: "Onegai Kamisama! Onegai! Riaru Dōbutsu Uranai! Onegai!! Tenma-chan!" (Japanese: お願い 神さま!お願い!リアル動物占い!お願い!!天満ちゃん!) | December 7, 2004 | October 2, 2007 | |
Mikoto injures her hand while having a karate sparring match with Hanai, and is worried that she may never write again due to this. She decides to go to a temple to ask God to help her through the exams, but she receives help from Harima, who claims to have found "enlightenment" with animals and is now making a living with them as a fortune teller. Later, Tenma asks the "fortune teller" to read her fortune on love and, while Harima thinks about what he should do, she asks Karasuma if he likes more her or curry. When he cannot give her an answer (after initially replying "curry"), Tenma runs off crying, mistaking his taciturn attitude for indecisiveness. As Tae tends to Harima, he makes a decision: the next day, he will confess his feelings to Tenma and ask to leave school (since she was his only motivation to attend). To that end, he leaves a love letter in her shoe locker and waits impatiently for her reaction. When she meets him at the school rooftop, she tells him that he placed his resignation letter in the envelope of the love letter. Though dumbstruck by his mistake, Tenma relights the fire inside of him by asking him to continue attending school. | ||||
11 | "Nara! Karasuma! Harima!" Transliteration: "Nara! Karasuma! Harima!" (Japanese: 奈良!烏丸!播磨!) | December 14, 2004[9] | November 13, 2007 | |
At a waterpark, Tenma feels jealous for her friends (Eri, Mikoto and Akira), since she is the only one without a company there. She soon runs into her classmate Kentaro Nara, who offers to make her company. Even though Tenma accepts at first, she soon remembers Karasuma and, not wanting to betray him in thought, she resorts to only have him teach her to swim. They then later meet up with Nara's friends (who were the ones courting Tenma's friends) and, as they ask them out on a date, the girls proposes a challenge: if any of the boys win, they will all go out to the beach together. The scene then shifts to a rainy day. Without an umbrella, Tenma manages to find shelter, and is startled to see Karasuma already there. Later on at school, summer vacation is approaching and Harima listens to the girls about them having to accompany Nara's friends to the beach. | ||||
12 | "Save Me at the Beach! Save Me, I'm Naked! Just Save Me For Real!" Transliteration: "Umi de Tasukete! Hadaka de Tasukete! Honto ni Maji de Tasukete!" (Japanese: 海で助けて!ハダカで助けて!ホントにマジで助けて!) | December 21, 2004[10] | November 13, 2007 | |
As the group heads to the beach, they stay at a seaside resort with two rooms separated by a fusuma, which sparks Imadori's intent to spy on the girls changing into their bikinis, though Hanai stops him. At the beach, Eri notices she forgot her sunscreen in her room, so she returns to retrieve it. Back at the beach, Hanai saves Mikoto from drowning after she went to a deeper part of the sea so she could learn to swim by herself, and thus Tenma proposes him to teach her to swim. The lessons start with varying methods and degrees of success: Eri refuses to let Harima even touch her, let alone teach her. Akira makes Hanai swim alone (with the pretense of watch and learn) while she sits at the sand reading, until he tires out. Nara with Tenma is the only one successful (though she loses her swimsuit and he retrieves Harima's instead at one point). Finally, Imadori leads Mikoto into a cave far off the shore, just so he could be alone with her in there. Though Mikoto tries to think of a way out, all Imadori can think of is how to get into her bikini. And, even though she is convinced their friends wouldn't leave them stranded, they have not noticed their absence at all. | ||||

After Imadori and Mikoto make it back, Tenma thinks that Harima may be fond of, and therefore jealous of Mikoto, oblivious to the fact that he is trying to avoid others to get to herself. Later at night, while everybody is asleep, the boys try to get their way with the girls: as Nara tries getting closer to Tenma, Harima scares him off. A few days later, Mikoto's birthday comes around and Hanai looks for something to perform for her at her request. Finding a flute, he remembers how their friendship started: in their young days, Hanai was relentlessly bullied and ignored for not living up to the expectations of the son of a martial arts dojo headmaster. Unfortunately, his abilities with the flute waned over the years, and worst yet, Mikoto cannot remember a thing of how they met. | ||||
14 | "Have You Ever Seen One? Isn't She Cute? I Look Forward to Getting to Know You!" Transliteration: "Mita Koto aru? Kawai Kunakunai? Yoroshiku Onegaishimasu!" (Japanese: みたことある?かわいくなくない?よろしくおねがいします!) | January 3, 2005[11] | November 13, 2007 | |
Eri and Tenma are doing their summer homework at the latter's house, when Eri, out of the blue, asks if Tenma has ever seen a man's body, having remembered her embarrassing run-in with Harima. Much to her mortification, Tenma says yes, but Eri does not realize that her friend is having a completely opposite idea, as she is recalling one day when she went to see a wrestling match with Karasuma. Afterwards Harima asks Hanai to help him get a new part-time job, and the two of them (along with Imadori) are employed with heavy load for a moving company. Harima, feeling his job is being recognized, starts competing with Hanai on carrying real heavy furniture and refrigerators, but everything takes a twist when their employer introduces them to Ichi-san, whom he considers very reliable with load faring, and who turns out to be none other than Karen, as she is carrying a piano alone with ease. | ||||

Eri and Mikoto have distanced themselves from one another. Mikoto ponders the matter, concluding the Harima is at the center of it all. Meanwhile, Harima changes his manga style which further impresses the company's editor. On the way home, he bumps into Eri, prompting him to run away, after which Eri takes chase. Tenma makes plans to go see fireworks with her friends. Eri appreciates Tenma's offer, but still shows reluctance. Mikoto then learns that her old crush, Masahiro Kozu, is in town, and cancels with Tenma, which further distances her from Eri when she learns of this. Mikoto goes to meet him only to learn that he has gotten himself a girlfriend. | ||||

Akira and Yakumo go on a camp for their Tea Club (Sarah could not attend since it was a last-time arrangement), and Tenma tags along, dragging Eri and Mikoto with her. Although Akira had tried to fool Hanai to keep him away from Yakumo, he catches wind of their gathering and hurries to the camp, along with Harima (who wants to clear up things with Tenma) and Imadori (who simply had nothing better to do). Once there, Harima is sent to collect firewood and Yakumo joins him, in order to ask of his empathy with animals. The courage test consisted on heading for a temple past the woods and grab a lucky charm from there. During the test, it starts raining, and Tenma and Harima are caught outside. They eventually find an abandoned school, in which Tenma tries to talk things off with Harima in a friendly, when Tenma starts sneezing, due to wearing wet clothes. He goes for more and finds a rag sticking out of a wall. Using all his might to pull it, he finds that that rag is being worn by none other than Eri, whom he promptly pushes back, proceeding to leave with Tenma, since the rain has stopped. | ||||

Before the new school term starts, Itoko convinces Harima to take his animals to the Yagami Shrine, despite the high risk of them being discovered there. The new school term starts. Tenma is eager to meet Karasuma again, hoping that he had not changed anything since they last met (because she had noticed how Karen changed her looks because of someone - possibly Imadori). When Karasuma comes, Tenma notices he is sporting a mustache, and tries to see it in an optimistic way, prompting her to mumble that mustaches are beautiful while asleep on her desk, which does not escape the notice of Harima, wide awake and next to her.

The next day, as Karen thanks Tenma for helping her out, she remembers that the one Imadori really likes is Mikoto, and feels bad with herself. Upon seeing Imadori asking another girl out, Tenma dons the mask she lent to Karen and kicks him down, but Karen stops her before she can chew on him.

Mikoto is narrowly saved from a flying kick to the face by Imadori but ends up being disqualified anyway, while Tenma is knocked down by the truly fearsome Tennouji. Eri and Harima successfully take out Tennouji, but are disqualified when Eri takes a dive to recover Harima's lost hat.

The result makes the 2-D class pass 2-C in the total scoreboard. Therefore, everything is at stake in the boys' relay. The 2-C team is greatly determined to win, both due to the girls watching them and to put Tougou and Harry in their places after they underestimate their rivals.

Leaving school the next day, Tenma gathers all the courage she can to try to declare herself to Karasuma after giving him his birthday gift, which consists of a series of fish on a stick, following the dream she had. As in the dream, Karasuma accepts the fish and enjoys eating them. |

One morning at school, Harima receives through Itoko a card from the manga publisher telling him that he was considered eligible for a prize for his manga. Later, Tenma decides that she should work out her own shyness issues, so she goes see Karasuma at the music club room. Seeing him in a white suit, with which he will perform with the school band at the school festival, makes Tenma think he will be a successful rockstar while her lack of talent will leave her behind. The next day, Hanai is excited with the prospect of performing Sleeping Beauty with Yakumo, and goes off to try to convince the organizers to allow students from different classes to perform together. | |||

2-C still cannot decide what to do for the school festival, and Harima and Hanai are still sunk in the depths of misery. Akira hits on a very unconventional idea to solve both problems as she tells Harima about the script and Hanai about the participation of The tea Club for the coffee shop, which came down by their excitement into one solution to their problems: a survival war game, held in the school building after dark. The class are issued with replica weapons. The guys carefully look around the room until Sawachika appears standing on the window frame, but they hear a man's voice. Asou and Saga know that they're done for and turn around to discover that it's not Sawachika, but a man in a female's school uniform. | |||

The Yagami High civil war continues. The mysterious blond-haired figure with the elite battlefield skills turns out not to be Eri at all, but an intruder in a borrowed school uniform. Tenma encounters Karasuma defenceless in a corridor and is unable to attack him, even though she knows her team are counting on her, Moved by her chivalry, Karasuma was shot and out from the game which she moan over his defeat before being shot in the head. The following morning, the class was scolded by Mr. Koriyama, who was about to suspend them from the festival, but Ikoto managed to confess about their actions, so he spared them in exchange for them to do both festival activities. | |||

In order to decide which kind of play will be made, the 2-C students is encouraged to pitch in their own ideas. Mai and Tsumugi go through a variety of wild scenarios, and eventually decide to ask Akira to write one for them, combining as many of the ideas as she would like. Later, as Tenma tries to figure out through Eri what kind of girl Harima likes, in order to help Yakumo with him, Nishimoto invites his classmates to a bathhouse. Back at school, the girls prepare rice balls for the boys, but each of them made a different kind of rice ball, so they have to guess who made whichever rice ball they picked. Praising it just to impress her only makes things worse for Harima, as she gives him a dozen or so more. | |||

The Yagami High Festival begins. Meanwhile, Harima is nervously waiting for news from the manga editor contest in which he entered. Going to an exhibit labeled "Tokiha Boarding House", he meets with Yakumo, cosplaying as Osamu Tezuka, who encourages him to keep drawing for whatever drives him forward. Later at the class, he catches wind of Karasuma's birthday and, distressed, tries to stop Tenma from unveiling the cake, by pretending to trip. As it turns out, the cake he spilled this time was for Yoshidayama (who had won a "sumo bathing suit contest" previously), and Tenma promptly offers him his cake. Then, as she fetches the cake for Karasuma... she finds it, too, now reads "Harima" (this was the cake Harima tripped on earlier). To solve the problem, she cuts out the cake in a crescent shape, so that only the "MA" remains, and eats up the rest. Later as she sulks, Karasuma comes along and, noticing Tenma has a photo of him with a faint smile, he thanks her for the day. | |||

Harima was exhausted from writing a 200 pages and went to sleep while Sawachika dressed up as a musketeer as well as the other six musketeer including Tenma. The audience doesn't know what will happen next, but they suggested that Yakumo should kiss Harima. Harima was stress and Yakumo was going to kiss him until Akira came rappelling down in front of him, kissed him and rappelling back up as the princess lives happily ever after with a spy and the audience were proud about the play. The band performs on stage as a closing ceremony for everyone except for Harima, who was crucified on the ceiling as punishment. | |||

The girls go out for camping in the mountains, tasking Harima and Hanai with carrying their things (with Imadori taking a ride inside Hanai's baggage). However, Tenma had forgotten to take the lunch box her sister made, prompting Harima to offer to cook when she and Eri volunteer for the task. At the competition, Imadori makes good curry and rice, but when he confesses he made it from industrialized curry, he is disqualified. Later, the episode focuses on each character's lives outside of school where they all have part-time jobs. Harima applies for an animation studio, knowing it will help developing his manga artist abilities. Sarah and Asou are at a Chinese restaurant, but since their boss is on leave due to his wife having a baby, she decides to shopkeep in his place despite Asou's protest. At the end of the day, Sara and Asou's boss comes back and regretfully informs that his wife had not given birth because it was a false alarm. | |||

While coaching the girls in their training, Satsuki secretly pines after Asou - but not so secretly, since Tae and Tenma listen in on her, the nurse giving her advice from "Son Ko", or rather, Sun Tzu's The Art of War, in order to give her the motivation to pursue her affections. Though she hasn't been playing, Tenma is still in a rage for basketball, but she is ejected from the team by Tae, who gives her the excuse of a "special training" which she will have to undertake until one of the team members gets tired. Not wanting to tell Yakumo the truth (especially as she gives her lunchboxes every day to refill her energy), Tenma just spends her days sitting in a swing, depressed, and eating to the point of putting on weight. One night, as she wonders when will her "training" will be over, Tougou approaches her and, along with Harima and Imadori, proposes the formation of a new basketball team with the intent of crushing the girls' team. | |||

May my thoughts reach out for you. Maybe this is a one-time sensation, the page one of my youth. This is the last chance, I want to know about... Your feelings.

"School Rumble Forever".
The official FUNimation translation is: Sudden "goodbye"... Lost in a labyrinth... Who are you?... Tell me. "A chance encounter" "One-sided love" Send my love. Send my feelings.
