A Dash for Christmas! A Shattered Christmas!" Season 2 episode 19 of School Rumble. Less beautiful in a romantic way, but it's very funny. The various misunderstandings and absurdly intense characters mix in a way that in the end produces a oddly pessimistic view of the world, but in the same way Candide does- making you laugh and shrug your shoulders at the same time.
