Synopsis

Tooru Kouno's attractive appearance draws unexpected attention on his first day at an all-boys school. Having to transfer to a school without girls has been bad enough, but adding to his list of frustrations are boys staring at him all day long. However, he hopes that there may be girls around, since he ran into a lovely pink-haired girl on campus earlier that day.

After being escorted to his dorm by his classmate, Yuujirou Shihoudani, he meets a student named Mikoto Yutaka, who looks eerily similar to the girl he saw previously. To his shock, he realizes Mikoto is the girl and confronts him about this revelation. Yuujirou divulges that he and Mikoto crossdress as part of their job: a school tradition in which attractive first years are chosen as idols called "Princesses" in order to boost the morale of the students—and because of his looks, Tooru has been chosen by the student council as their third Princess!

Ok... I love to hate this show, I can’t explain it, but everything this show stands for...Is terrible and I love Watching I. This show is painfully underrated. Literally no one talks about this glorious dumpster fire.
If you’re wondering what I mean: this show is just- The show is about an all boys school that is basically bored out of their minds, so to make their school lives less dull they choose the prettiest boys in schools to be their cheerleaders at functions, and this has been going on for decades. But this time around, it’s Yuujirou (he is completely fine with it), Tohru the ...

Mixed Feelings

God, i saw this anime in the recommendations of another animes recommendations list. The memories hit hard. I genuinely thought this whole show was just a fever dream, and honestly thats how it feels like to watch it. Its got a lot of awkward pauses and silence.
The art is typical low budget 2010s anime. Acceptable but not good.

..and get harrassed for it. Harrassed, not in the homophobic way, but in the catcalling way. ...

Not Recommended

A poor adaption of its highly likable cousin, the manga, Princess Princess is an anime that makes you suffer completely throughout it and is something you should probably watch with your friends to be able to endure.

I had decent expectations of this anime at first. Especially since the manga is one of my favourites of all time -- (I mean, who can resist Taishi Zaou's humour? It's just FABULOUS) -- and let's face it, Studio Deen is a great studio in itself too. There are so many elements to this that could have made it great.

The story starts out OK, presenting the same premise ...
