Trivia / School Rumble

• Creator's Favorite: Harima is Jin Kobayashi's favorite character.
• Directed by Cast Member: The dub was directed by Brina Palencia who also voices Mikoto.
• The Other Darrin:
  • Karen was voiced by Yuka Nanri for season 1, replaced by MAKO for succeeding appearances.
  • Youko Sasakura was voiced by Akiko Kurumado in season 1, but was later replaced by Aya Hirano.
  • Jirou was voiced by Hirotaka Nagase for the first season, replaced by Makoto Tomita for succeeding appearances.
  • In the dub, Madoka was voiced by Jennifer Green in Season 1, but was later replaced by Gwendolyn Lau in the Season 2.
  • Also from the dub, the Ghost Girl was voiced by Stephanie Sheh in the OVA, but was later done by Cherami Leigh in the second season.
• Overtook the Manga: The second season ran out of content from its corresponding school term, resorting to several filler episodes and an open anime-original ending that is best forgotten.
• Portmanteau Series Nickname: "SukuRan"
• Same Content, Different Rating: The series has consistently gotten TV-PG to TV-14 ratings on YouTube, until about a little before midway of Second Semester, where that rating was bumped up to TV-MA for no discernible reason for all following episodes. And yes, the previous episodes do not appear to have had their rating changed in response to this, either. And no, the show's overall formula did not really change at all.
• Star-Making Role:
  • In the original Japanese, this was one of the first major roles of Ami Koshimizu (Tenma).
  • The dub was this for Brandon Potter (Harima), Leah Clark (Eri) and Trina Nishimura (Akira). Same with Luci Christian (Tenma) as a Dallas-based voice actor (since most of her noteworthy work prior had been in Houston).
• What Could Have Been: Word of God says Nara was supposed to be the main character.
