School Rumble is a 26-episode anime series created by FUNimation. The show premiered in Japan in 2004 and ran until 2005. The series was later dubbed into English and released in North America in 2008. The show revolves around the lives of several high school students, with a focus on the romantic entanglements and comedic mishaps that ensue. The main character is a teenage girl named Tenma Tsukamoto, who is hopelessly in love with a boy named Karasuma Oji. The problem is that Karasuma seems to be completely oblivious to Tenma's affections.

Other characters in the show include Tenma's best friend, a boy named Kenji Harima, who has a crush on Tenma; Eri Sawachika, a beautiful and wealthy girl who becomes involved in a love triangle with Kenji and Tenma; Mikoto Suou, a tough girl who is secretly in love with a boy named Hanai; and several others.

The show's humor is based largely on the characters' ridiculous scenarios and misunderstandings. For example, in one episode, Tenma accidentally gets stuck inside a locker with Karasuma, but is unable to confess her feelings to him because she is too embarrassed. In another episode, Kenji accidentally becomes a stand-in for the school's mascot, which leads to a series of embarrassing mishaps.

Despite its often-ridiculous premise, School Rumble also deals with more serious subjects, such as the characters' anxieties and insecurities about their futures. As high school graduation approaches, many of the characters find themselves unsure about what they want to do with their lives.

The show is notable for its large and diverse cast of characters, as well as its fast-paced and often-chaotic storytelling style. Each episode is packed with numerous subplots and gags, making for a frenetic viewing experience.

The show's animation style is bright and colorful, with a strong emphasis on character design. The characters are all distinct and easily recognizable, and their facial expressions and body language are key to the show's humor.

School Rumble is also known for its soundtrack, which features a mix of upbeat pop songs and more dramatic orchestral pieces. The show's opening theme, "Scramble," is a catchy and energetic song that perfectly captures the show's frenzied tone.

Overall, School Rumble is a funny and entertaining anime series that will appeal to fans of romantic comedies and high school dramas. Its fast-paced storytelling and lovable characters make it a must-watch for anyone looking for a good laugh.

School Rumble is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (76 episodes). The series first aired on October 5, 2004.
