Kaichou wa Maid-sama!

Misaki Ayuzawa is a unique phenomenon within Seika High School. In a predominantly male institution, she became the first-ever female student council president through her honesty and diligence. Ever since Misaki got promoted to the position, she has been working tirelessly to ensure a better school life for all girls. Despite that, Misaki is very strict with the boys, which has earned her the title "Demon President."

One day, after hearing a girl cry in the hallway, Misaki encounters Takumi Usui—the most popular boy in the school—as he rejects a love confession. Enraged at what she is seeing, Misaki reprimands him for making the girl cry. However, Usui is indifferent and brushes it off as nothing.

Unexpectedly, Misaki soon runs into Usui again, but this time when she is working at a maid cafe! Embarrassed that someone has found out about her secret occupation, Misaki promises herself not to let Usui destroy her reputation. However, the mysterious boy now begins to visit the same cafe regularly to observe and tease Misaki. When push comes to shove, will Usui still be able to keep the president's secret?

I LOVE UZUI TAKUMI(this is not a confession)
From many days i was looking for a rom-com like this and my feed helped me.
A little sexualization but not too much.
After watching this i just want to read the manga as soon as i can.
Not too much typical rom-com shit.
Man hating at its peak ( lol i am just kidding) but i LOVED Uzui hehehehe.
Overall a good rom-com anime and i would definently recommend it to anyone who is looking for a good romance anime.
'll come to save you as much as you want. I'll make you fall for me as much as you wish. I'll tell ... you if you kiss me. The real battle starts now!"
Until then Jaane!

Mixed Feelings

Rewatching this at 20 years of age was definitely an experience

Everything from the plot to the characters is just kind of laughable bc of how stereotypical and genuinely cringe it was. You know, I guess there was a reason middle school me would have rated this a 10/10. Like Usui not even lowkey, but straight up stalks her lmao. How does he just always pull up at the right moment Every Single Time. And don't talk to me abt "its romantic" GET A GRIP PLEASE. Not to mention the fact that he always plays really weird jokes on her to "show her shes still a ... girl" under her "manly" personality. Because its def normal to kind of harass people like that as long as they blush when you do it!! Like, I just can't get behind that message at all. It really makes me wonder what grown adult truly thought of this and saw nothing weird about it

Still this anime kind of was my whole personality for a point in my life so i cant hate too much.

And side note: They get brownie points for the soundtrack bc I'm a shooter for a banger ost, and they kinda did for me

I thought Maid Sama could be a potentially underappreciated work, but I was wrong. I didn't believe it was good at all. It's a romantic "comedy" that never made me laugh or smile once. I mean, if you find it funny that there's a guy who forces himself on males and females then maybe you'd like the humor. I don't even believe the humor is bad because it "aged poorly." I think the humor isn't good for its time either because I view anime that some see as off-putting like Prison School as hilarious.

Moreover, many characters in the show lack any development. They're introduced, given ... a short backstory, and remain static throughout the rest of the series with little screen time. However, supposedly these issues don't occur in the manga since the anime only covers 8 volumes of the manga's 18 volumes. I didn't know this until I completed the series.

Still, even with Maid Sama being an incomplete anime adaptation of a manga, an anime like Ouran High School Host Club is decent on its own despite not being a full adaption. That anime was humorous and developed characters. Therefore, I don't recommend Maid Sama. Maybe the manga is better, but considering the humor in the anime is likely similar, the manga probably isn't that much better.
