I really liked School Rumble back in the day, i started reading it since it first come out in English, and I enjoyed it and followed it until the last chapter was translated... but when it ended i got this really strong feeling that it was incomplete.

So reading this, after a few years, because i didn't pick it up when it come out and finished it just now, made me remember the characters, and how much I use to like them.
To be honest the final chapter was a nice cherry on the pie, if only for that single page that show me what i wanted to see the most.

So whatever, I'm giving it a 10, since it had all i was hoping for, and because i don't like hinted ending.

SR Z was a sequel to SR. I feel people wanted to know more on some of the cast. But, this manga seems like fans even made it. The story is not linear, and some chapters are random (maybe trying to show some of the manga that Harima has written?). If the author had just explained the random chapters a bit, or not included them, the story would be decent. Though, I think that it should have just been one big chapter instead of the ten. Some possible outcomes for some of cast was shown, and it was very expected. The ending was good, It demonstrated the second theme of the series (want it? try it or regret it). Which was shown strongly in that chapter, especially by the sister of Tenmai. Overall, I would recommend this only to the people that read the original--IF you want to know more about them after SF. Though, I feel it is does not need to be read, since SR did a good job on sort of foreshadowing who and what would happen , etc.

I only watched the anime, since that the manga was very draggy (I do luv the anime, it's awesome :3). I read this in curiosity, and well, I was half disappointed. It wasn't very funny at all T.T and yea, it doesn't connect to the main plot that much (although it is meant to be an ALTERNATE STORY, but still). However, one reason I gave this a 6 is that

i was hoping for this manga to be an epilogue to the previous manga. however, all it had were a collection of pointless story. I have to say there are some chapters that are good, but they still leave Harima's ending open. although there is a page at the last chapter giving hint about of his future. whether it is real or not, it is up to the reader to figure it out. ok, but can be better

It wasn't the best ending but it ended I really wanted to see what happened to the others but seeing erixharima was cool but i feel sad for Yakumo all well maybe she's his mistress or something that would be twist.

nahh.. its not surprised anymore ..Kobayashi Jin surely killed my childhood School Rumble memory, the storyline became so lame and boring as f*ck , its painful to read the manga that was desperate to be funny and romance, but i still put a micro hope on the anime.. 1/10 micro actually....

Because at least there was an effort for a sequel, and though it was mostly random stuff, jumping storyline, and what not, i guess it did show some parings in the end. but still it would have been wonderful if it just skipped time and went to the their grown up stages and the story was about that. but its over now woo.

Wow, so far it's been absolute... yea...
Thanks to Townsocks and whoever's involved in the releases, you guys were great. Hopefully you can continue releasing and...
I'll check back in a few years... for closure.

The mangaka knows all his fans are craving a continuation or an actual ending to this series, but what does he do? Pointless one-shots. I can't respect someone who'd ignore his fanbase and commit such atrocity. If these chapters were actually funny, I'd forgive him, but they're not. On top of that, it's a monthly release. Enjoy 12 chapters of this a year. Not me, I give up.

this is even worse than the last one, the plot goes no where, and jokes are horribly predictable, like the confrontation in chapter 2. Made me regret reading the first series even more...
