"Jin Kobayashi : The Principal of School Rumble..."
Creator and author of School Rumble. In the anime, he voices the role of Sailor F in Episode 25. He also narrates the prehistoric section of OVA 2. He seems to be interested in keeping a low profile and as such, relatively little is known about him. An interesting point is that Kobayashi-sensei's appearance resembles Harima, a fact that caused some fan speculation on how much of Harima is based off of himself.
Of the few public events he has joined, Kobayashi Jin has been seen at the 6th Comic Exhibition at Taipei and also Kawaii Kon 2006 in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Kobayashi Jin was born on 25th May, 1977. He was either born in Tokyo or Chiba, based on two conflicting accounts.Kobayashi Jin started to draw manga seriously in his college years. In 2001, he won the Weekly Shounen Magazine’s Rookie Award (only open to amateurs), giving him the opportunity to serialise School Rumble in the same magazine in the following year, where he has continued to write for the past 4 years. In 2006, Natsu no Arashi, another manga by him started in GanGan WING.
