\"Eri
\nEri from School Rumble (2004-2006)<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n

+++++ School Rumble – S1 (1-26) – Started 01\/30. Finished 6\/29. D-WOW! LOL, hilarious! Plus rivalry, regret, romance and friendship. Fantastic!<\/em><\/p>\n

Double-Wow! Even if everyone already knows this, I must say, even compared to other high-school comedies Kare Kano<\/em> (5 of 5 stars), Azumanga Daioh<\/em> (4 of 5 stars) and the more-supernatural Midori Days<\/em> (4 of 5 stars) and Shuffle!<\/em> (5 of 5 stars), this 26-episode series School Rumble<\/em><\/a> (2004) easily ranks as one of the funniest and consistently-funny anime out there. While Harima may be the toughest delinquent at school, he turns to mush whenever he gazes upon his adorably-clueless classmate Tenma. Meanwhile, Tenma is equally obsessed with getting the attention of the ultra-distant Karasuma. LOL, the most-hilarious moments occur when this triangular dynamic is dazed and confused by other female classmates! Especially with the aristocratic blonde Eri, lol. Yet the comedy is also broadly woven with Hanai’s heart-breaking past, Akira’s mind-boggling background, as well as Yakumo’s shooting-star wonderment and Harima’s super-rival battles! Spine-tingling, side-splitting and eye-opening! Can’t wait to get to the Second Term<\/em>, lol… 5 of 5 stars!<\/p>\n

\"Natsumi
\nNatsumi & Miyuki from You’re Under Arrest (1994-2002)<\/em><\/a><\/div>\n

+++ You’re Under Arrest – The Movie (1999) – Started and finished 06\/26. Not bad! Starts slow but picks up and concludes with an action-packed bang!<\/em><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the anime film You’re Under Arrest – The Movie<\/em><\/a> (1999) wasn’t quite as funny, lol. Resuming their crime-fighting antics of the series You’re Under Arrest – Season 1<\/em> (1994-1997; 5 of 5 stars), policewomen Natsumi and Miyuki and the rest of Bokuto Station return to solve an unexpected terrorist puzzle. While the comedy and hilarity from the series is notably lacking, the overwhelming over-the-top action finally offers some partial-redemption for the rather slow-and-plodding start. Specifically, the climactic helicopter scene is reminiscent of a big-budget live-action Hollywood film!… 3 of 5 stars.<\/p>\n
