Episode synopsis
Shinjiro Hayashida hears Shinichi Mechazawa humming a song in the bathroom. Later that day, he starts humming the same tune, but can’t remember the name or artist. He asks Kamiyama, but he can’t remember it either. Pretty soon, the whole school is humming the song thinking of what its called. At the end of the day, nobody figured it out. As Kamiyama heads out, he hears Mechazawa humming the song! He asks him about it, but accidentally says that he knows it. Now, he can’t ask the only person who knows the song’s name, or else he’ll look like a “tool”.
About Cromartie High School
Folks, meet Takashi Kamiyama. Enrolled at Cromartie High, where everybody is a delinquent, Kamiyama is apparently the only non-delinquent in the school. Logically, therefore, he must be the toughest in his class—by the rather twisted logic that only a really tough rabbit would lie down with lions. Thus begins a story that parodies every cliché of tough-guy anime that you've ever heard of, and some you haven't. Oh, and Freddie Mercury is in it, too.
