''School Rumble'' is ostensibly a high school romantic comedy, but in practice it's really more of a GagSeries that relies more on character interaction than actual progress in relationships. It also loves to parody other series, including ''Manga/InitialD'', ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'', ''Manga/{{Dragonball}} Z'', ''Film/BattleRoyale'', ''Series/IronChef'', ''Franchise/StarWars'', and ''Film/Ghost1990''.

* IntraScholasticRivalry:
** There is a heated rivalry between Class 2-C and Class 2-D, spurred on by many personal rivalries, such as the three exchange students from 2-D, Harry, Togo, and Lara having personal rivalries with Harima, Hanai, and Karen respectively. At one point, Harima and Hanai lose the entirety of their class to 2-D in a mahjong match. It should be noted that for the most part, these are [[FriendlyRivalry Friendly Rivalries]], as Harima and Togo actually join a basketball team together, and it is not uncommon to see Lara and Karen shopping together or having lunch with each other.
** When a nascent girls' basketball team forms at the school, several of the male characters, and Tenma, come together to form the rival "Outlaws" team and challenge them to a match.
** Class 2-C has a division between those who want to put on a play for the upcoming culture fest and those who want to do a cafe. This initially has a game of pool hockey form to see which side can win (at the start of Season 1). By the time Season 2 rolls around, the friction over doing a play or a cafe has reached a point where the two sides actually conduct a war game at night to decide the victor (strangely played for both drama and comedy at the same time), but still ends in a draw. A P.E. teacher who is disciplining the class for the late night shenanigans tells them they should just do both, which ends up being the solution.
