When I look at this manga it looks like another one of those basic romance stories and it is but it did do well for what its worth.

Story:9/10
This story is about two people from different countries who fake their love in order to stop the two countries from fighting. This works but the only problem is that they don't get along. Now the plot is overuse as I've seen this in many other mangas before this. Especially how the romance is done in this manga. But what made it good is how funny it is. The humor is what save its. Plus its ... starts to pick up as when people tries to destroy the peace that the two countries have. So while the plot is unoriginal, The humor and its pacing is what saves this.

Art:10/10
The art here is really well done. Its looks really pretty and the chibi form the girl when showing her emotion I'll admit, is really cute. The looks and expressions that they made just makes the humor even more hilarious. The arts and illustrations are very nice and well drawn.

Characters:8/10
The character are just like what you expect for a shojo manga. But while they look the same, they feel different. The male and female lead has lots of personality to them which makes it different from other shojo type characters. Plus the romantic chemistry while looks the same like other shojo character has shown, it did show progress to their love for each other and is pace very well. The other character are not that much present but they do show effort they give for the main characters.

Enjoyment:8/10
I really did like this and I thought I was going to hate it. I give this try when you have some time you wanna waste.

Overall:8/10 This is the greatist manga

the short, guy likes girl, girls tsundere, and there is the story, with some a relatively fast, the relationship ACTUALLY changes, and nothing really feels like it was added just to prolong the manga, the end feels a bit rushed, but still satisfying.

the long, and in depth portion.

there are some things that shoujo fails at and this is usually the art. they need to tell the story more through words, have characters with emotive faces, to convey the situations, and to that extent its a success.

however when ever the action ramps up, or things start moving a bit fast, the art falls flat on ... its face, and this is a BIG way this manga fails at the last chapters. suffice to say, they needed to be a bit more explained or drawn out.

the characters, at least the main 2 and the few attendants, you get to know pretty well, anyone else however, you will be going back chapters to figure out who the hell they are. granted this may be because i read it as it was coming out, but fact remains besides the main characters and attendants, the shoujo art style fails to make any of the side characters memorable at all.

as for the plot, chapter 1 i don't consider a spoiler, if you do skip this. the relation ship mostly stays that way, but its obvious that its moveing all the time, its not like most shoujo where the relationship goes nowhere and suddenly BAM progression hits you in the face, or a mix of progression and regression.

as for the over all plot, its decent, but poorly executed, but this was never about the background plot, this was always about the relation between the two mains, and thats where this shines.

now, my enjoyment of this is basically this, it was a romance, that had comedy elements, was never overly serious, and moved allong. because it was what i was looking for i LOVE this one. you may not as much as me.

this isn't typical shoujo, as in the crap you think of when you think shoujo, however that said, its not the next great manga either, if you go into this expecting average, you will be surprised its better than you thought.

When i read the synopsis I thought it would be incredibly cliche.

And that's exactly what it is.

The series is about 2 characters on opposing sides that have suffered years of war with each other. So when the Prince and Princess profess there love for each other they accept peace because both of them have very doting fathers (for real thats the reason). But in actuality they don't actually like each other at all both of them being not each other's type. But slowly they also fall in love with each other whilst also trying to get past the years the damage there countries have done ... to each other.

As you can probably guess, the series does not actually do anything unique, or that interesting. Usually the series just pulls the same comedic stuff over and over again so it really depends on your own mood or enjoyment of which clichés will click for you.

I think the most interesting part of the series was where the main character kills people and the main heroine who is a medical expert questions whether or not its ok to kill people under certain circumstances. Its too bad this is never really fully explored (though i will say that it is mostly resolved in its own episodic scenario that it was created in).

Another issue was the art. Everything is really pointy. The chins specifically.

I mean this is a short 4 volume series that plays it by the books. Despite there being some good moments and overall i did somewhat enjoy this series. I'd say your better off reading off better romance series instead.

TLDR: Unless you have literally run out of push and pull romance series and want to read more than yeah i guess this is good enough to be worth checking out. 5/10
