Translated from the Japanese.

"First published in Japan in 2004 by Kodansha Ltd., Tokyo"--T.p. verso.

In keeping with the original Japanese format, this book reads from back to front and from right to left.

Harima Kenji has tried everything he can think of to attract his cute, but dim, classmate Tsukamoto Tenma. This time he's grown his beard to enormous lengths. But one snip of the scissors by wealthy beauty Sawachika Eri ruins everything! Can a delinquent punk and a stubborn, quick-to-anger rich girl end their long-running feud? Meanwhile, the inscrutable foreign exchange students from America in rival Class 2-D face off against our hapless heroes from 2-C. The real School Rumble is about to begin!
