Synopsis
Every girl at school calls Yoi Takiguchi a 'prince' the moment she walks down a hallway. Tall, deep-voiced, effortlessly cool — she looks like a shoujo manga love interest, except she's actually a first-year girl who just wants to go about her day without the fanclub treatment. Then she meets Kohaku Ichimura, the school's other 'prince,' a second-year who's rich, charming, and completely shameless about doing whatever he wants. The twist? He's the first person to look at Yoi and call her beautiful — not handsome, not cool, but beautiful. And that one word throws her entire self-image off balance. This TV series is a shoujo romance built around two people who wear the same label but couldn't be more different underneath it. Yoi is guarded and quietly frustrated by how people see her, while Kohaku is loose and carefree in a way that keeps catching her off guard. The dynamic between them has this gentle push-and-pull where he sees her as she actually is, and she has to figure out what that even means to her. There's real tenderness in how the story handles identity and self-perception without ever getting heavy-handed about it. If you liked the gender-play humor of Ouran High School Host Club or the strong-willed heroine energy of Maid Sama, this is in that lane but with a quieter, more introspective touch. Fans of Special A will appreciate the rival-to-romance tension too. It's warm, it's youthful, and it earns its feelings honestly.

strawberry_shortcake★★★★★AnimeThis anime started with an interesting theme!I'm glad that the two of them discovered themselves in the relationship they have. I really liked it and I really wish the series would continue! ✌🏻☺️✌🏻
strawberry_shortcake★★★★★VerifiedEP 12This episode was very nice, the way he did everything to make up after making the girl angry shows that he cares! Even if the whole fight started from jealousy! In the end everything was resolved!☺️
akireghoul★★★★★VerifiedEP 3Every chapter keeps me on the edge of my seat. I love how they’re growing closer; it’s a fast-paced process, yet it feels completely natural. It’s charming and fun to see how seriously Yoi takes this new relationshi, almost like a competition to see who puts in more effort and I think that attitude is precisely what captivates Kohaku. I’m really enjoying the pacing and the dynamic between them. Kohaku is incredibly straightforward and fearless (he’s not even afraid of the in-laws, haha). So far, they’ve been very open about their feelings; I hope that continues.
dyenome★★★★★VerifiedEP 3I really like Kohaku’s character. I thought his dullness was going to be annoying, but it’s actually a good trait. I think Kohaku is smarter than he seems. I like how the dynamics are progressing so far. I’m just kind of worried if there’s going to be a low-point arc and how they’re going to deal with it, but so far it’s quite fine—more of an exploration of each other’s emotions. The anime looks really beautiful in certain scenes, especially the focus on Yoi’s eyes and what she sees. I like how the conflict is being set up. Kohaku’s feelings seem really superficial, or at least that’s what he’s letting Yoi see, but it’s all about exploring those feelings and seeing what they really feel for each other. I also love that there are no eternal misunderstandings and that they’re both quite direct when asking each other questions about their newfound relationship.
