THE REAL RUMBLE!!
The school athletics fair is meant to be a celebration of youth and fitness, but personal grudges, haughty attitudes, and long-standing rivalries have turned healthy competition into all-out war! Will Tsukomoto Tenma’s teacher have his revenge for the theft of his cookies? Can Sawachika Eri and Harima Kenji bury the hatchet long enough to compete on the same team? Will hoards of young men get themselves injured just to be seen by the pretty health office nurse? And can the misfits of class 2-C ever hope to defeat the athletic, hard-studying, self-righteous creeps of class 2-D? Here is where it’s all decided!
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Unrequited puppy love fuels many laughs in newcomer Kobayashi's romantic comedy debut. Second-year high school student Tsukamoto Tenma has a crush on Karasuma Oji. There's just one problem: Oji is transferring schools in two days. So Tenma leaves a heartfelt love letter in his locker, which she forgets to sign. Oji is intrigued enough to persuade his parents to let him stay at the school for a year while he figures out who his secret admirer is. Plenty of time, right? Not for Tenma. Crippled by her own lack of common sense, and oblivious to juvenile delinquent Harima Kenji's equally unrequited pursuit of her, Tenma makes with the meet cutes in an escalating series of attempts to get Oji to notice her. Kobayashi has obvious affection for his characters (even supporting rol es like Tenma's mildly telepathic younger sister), which helps keep the hijinks funny even when they reach their most embarrassing and with bird costumes, Machiavellian seating schemes, and cases of mistaken identity, embarrassment abounds. Kobayashi shows his versatility by, keeping Tenma's scenes cleanly rendered, while using looser cross-hatching to give Kenji's scenes a grittier, crime-story feel. Occasional references to unseen rapists may push the tone a little too dark, but otherwise, this series should hold much amusement for teens.
