Kareshi Kanojo no Jijyou




Cited from Animelist:

Miyazawa Yukino is the perfect student. Kind, intelligent, pretty and modest, it's unbelievable that such a person could exist. Little did everyone know Yukino's perfection was just a facade. An act to fulfill her desire for praise and admiration. Her life took a turn however, as a newcomer to their school Arima Soichiro topped the exam rankings. Arima is more then just intelligent, he's also kind, handsome and modest, an unbelievable person who can actually exist. Even worse luck, Arima found out Yukino's secret, blackmailing her to help him out. Their odd relationship soon develops into friendship and eventually into love. But can their love prevail through the many problems that come their way?


Review:

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this anime. The storyline would be a bit slow for others, but I think it was well thought out. I love how different the two lead characters are in terms of personality. And the love story between them is light and beautiful as a first love should be. They start of as smart-ass rivals, with Yukino feeling challenged by Arima's non-chalant smartness. She prides herself as being the top of everything and lives for applauses and praises by friends and teachers. Only her family knows her true personality as an attention whore. Arima on the other hand has a dark past. The two suddenly got together when Yukino accidentally left her guard down in front of Arima. They got closer after that and only the two of them truly understood each other's true pesonality and secrets. My favourite character is Asapin, who makes the story light-hearted with his perverted jokes and cute girls-collecting mission. However, I wish the story had a more prominent ending. It felt like the ending was a cliffhanger leading me to believe there would be a second season or something, but sadly no. Overall, it's still a good watch!

Yes, I thot it was slow at first totally LOl at her double personalities! I haven't read the manga because I'm not a big fan of online mangas unfortunately. Because I like the real thing, as in actually holding it in my hands to read. Unfortunately mangas are way too steep for my current money state, LOL.
