Synopsis:

The genius student council president and the wealthy and beautiful vice president has developed feelings for each other.

Whoever confesses first will lose in the battle of love.

Review:

I like the character lineup in the story, each of their personalities give off a significant spice to the manga which makes it interesting. Their individual stories can be relatable, and they even added a touch of humor to it. Shirogane and Kaguya's strategies to make each other confess are just out-of-this-world bizarre and it's cute how sometimes it backfires and just brought them closer.

***UPDATE: So, this series has come to an end and all I can say is that I did not expect the ending & it just confirms the theory if money were not an issue people would pursue art***

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Favorite character/s:

Ishigami. I just relate to his dark philosophy and his straightforwardness.

Ai Hayasaka. Most versatile bodyguard.

Chika. Annoyingly cute comic relief.

Shirogane. Book smarts without street smarts.

Shirogane's dad. Most chill and trendy dad ever.
