Kentaro Nara is your typical high school student. As typical as you can get. The more 'normal' character in School Rumble, though recently that is changing. Nara plays the role of the general guy in the background. He appears every now and then to provide comic relief, but is overshadowed by the other lead male characters most of the time. His first major role was the summer beach trip, which resulted from his encounter with Tenma Tsukamoto at the pool.
