looks like we're down one more to go

[HeyITZthatFC]

man this is getting a little hectic. it better be finished off with like a 50 page special or something.

because if this one more is what i really think, then it came out the cuts like a fucking ninja lol.

WTF, the next issue is gonna be the last one?? After all this time, there's no girl for Harima. That is sad. The next chapter should at least include a closure on Eri or Yakumo, and it better be a good ending too. If the ending sucks, the value of this manga is gonna go down.

I feel the same way. And the others are probably too.

I really don't like where this is going. I thought it was a very realistic possibility that Harima would end up with no one. However, now that the possibility is looking more real than before, I don't want it to happen. Originally, I thought that I would be happy with the ending if Harima could find happiness (whether with Eri/Yakumo or no one), but now I want him to end up with someone. I really think he deserves that much. A lot of time has passed between the last chapter and this one (years according to jockstrap's translation, but I want to wait for townsocks' translation to be sure), so we really don't know what happened between Harima, Eri and Yakumo. It looks like the girls still hold feelings for him, but I really wish we knew what happened before he left. Here's hoping that he ends up with someone, and that the mangaka doesn't make an open ended ending such as: Harima knocks on someone's door (we don't know who), and him saying something like, "I'm back" and then it ends. That would be killer.

Also, not to be rude and offensive to any Tenma fans, but her story already ended when she decided to stay in the US and become a doctor. To go back to her without closure on Harima's story is really unfair to other non-Tenma fans (or at least those who feel it already ended). Before you go about making an epilogue type chapter like this, you should at the very least put closure in other people's story. I guess this is what happens when you rush the ending (it certainly feels rushed).

Che Che Che

One more chapter to go.

Guevara!

It was a fun ride while it lasted.

I can't believe there is only one chapter left. There will be no conclusion at this rate. The time-skip for this chapter was very abrupt, now the only thing we can hope for is for the final chapter to be long, very long, at least 3 times the usual. And I still doubt the conclusion will be acceptable.

Wow, as an avid reader of School Rumble and absolutely loving the anime, I hate to say it but that was terrible. The way the manga kept heading made me feel so disappointed and frustrated after a while and this abrupt chapter really hit it home.

It looks like the author didn't know what to do at all. After what seemed to be a potential set-up for another humorous arc on the last few chapters, he just skips it all like it was nothing. What the heck was that all about?

You simply don't do a story with Harima posing as Eri's fiance and then have him live with Yakumo only to simply cut away a long time later! Knowing full how long people were led on, you don't do something like that with such potential!!

After everything, it never got anywhere. It's amazing how confessing was such a painfully stretched thing, and that the end of the day, and to add insult to injury supposedly years later, no one said a blasted thing. Not Harima, not Eri, not Yakumo!

Seriously, what?!

ARGGGGHHHH!!!

I'm sorry if I sound angry as if I hate the series or something, far from it I love it, but what's been done to it leaves me kind of heart broken.

So terribly rushed for something so long.
