Mysterious and soft spoken, Tsukamoto Yakumo (also referred to by Kenji Harima as Imouto-san) carries a strong presence with her wherever she goes. She can hear the thoughts of people who have strong feelings for her, such as hate, love (Very common) etc. and is a member of the Tea Club. She has a tendency to fall asleep anywhere there is a place and time to and is afraid of dogs. She also works at Cafe Mercado. Cafe Mercado often does Cosplay.

Yakumo's cooking ability is far above average (and her older sister Tenma). You see Yakumo's cooking in several occasions throughout the anime. The other characters always comment on her exceptional culinary skills. A few memorable instances are when she makes Onigiri for Harima when he comes to her house to fix her AC. Another instance is when Tenma has a sleep over and Yakumo serves her friends desserts. Another one is when she cooked fish for that stray black cat, Iori that soon becomes her pet.

Yakumo takes manga editing lessons from Mitsui, the Chief Editor. She also assists Harima with his Manga, doing the inking work.


Yakumo is talented and well trained when it comes to sewing. One occasion where you see an instance of this is in Episode 24. Previously Eri had made repairs on a jacket of Harima's and left it on his school desk for a surprise. Harima then asks Yakumo to get his school bag. Without knowing, Yakumo grabs the bag from Eri and sees the poor stitch work and repairs it herself with an exceptional result.

School Rumble

The plot of School Rumble covers the daily lives of students of the fictional Yagami High School and their surroundings. The series is of the romance comedy genre, with scenes in the story being exaggerated for comedic purposes.

The female protagonist is Tenma Tsukamoto, a second year high school girl with no special qualities who has a crush on Oji Karasuma, a stonefaced eccentric. The generally clueless Tenma finds it difficult to confess her love to him. Complications arise with Kenji Harima, the male protagonist and a delinquent, who has developed a crush on Tenma. He too has difficulty confessing to her. The attempts of the two characters to confess their respective loves are running gags seen throughout the series.

As the series progresses, the story changes focus to the relationship that develops between Harima and Tenma's close friend, Eri Sawachika, which results from various embarrassing situations involving Eri and Harima. Harima also develops a relationship with Tenma's younger sister Yakumo Tsukamoto, who begins to assist Harima with the development and drawing of his manga.

As the story progresses, Harima gets himself into romantic situations with Tenma, the relationship between Tenma and Karasuma progresses, and Eri's and Yakumo's bonds with Harima grow stronger.
