Our heroine, Ayukawa Misaki, seems very tightly would and a bit on edge. She is the class president (or student council or something like that), at a recently turned co-ed school. For some reason I thought this was a story about someone breaking into an all-boys school, so it’s pretty awesome that it’s not..
Exposition time! We meet a boy named Usui who I am guessing is going to be her love interest, right of the bat. Misaki’s house is pretty crappy. She has a sister named Suzuna, and a mother who works in the hospital and paints weird things. Her dad is out of the picture and is your typical dead-beat. Misaki works at a maid café.
Predicted love interest catches her talking to herself while taking the trash out for said job. Misaki is very upset about this. Usui creeply waits outside for her shift to end and they discuss how hard things have been for her.
Misaki waits for Usui to say anything, but he doesn’t. He does however, show up at her work. And beat her in the school exams. They have a very awkward, very typical shojo moment where Misaki falls into Usui accidently when feeling sick.
I think I’m going to like this series. It feels like a simple breath of fresh air, stereotypical but fun and an easy passing twenty minutes. I was surprised by how quickly they seemed to push the two together, hopefully they’ll continue and we can see more of real relationship problems, which is often absent in shojo.
