[STORY]: The female lead, seen mostly as a beautiful "prince" (recurrent motif) is seen for the first time as a "woman" by another popular "prince". There seems to be this duality between the prince-like behavior of being a sensible, protector of the women, and the other prince that is somehow of an untouchable, charistmatic prince.
[CHARACTERS]:
Prince(ss) Yoi - has a sophisticated air, gentle with her peers and sometimes could be called a true "gentlewoman". As the story develops, she loses these skills and becomes more shy and insecure little girl - is that what it means to be become a woman for some people? (well not). It was however refreshing to see a FL that is not an annoying brat, without friends or some poor bird struck by fate. At this point in the manga, Yoi can be called at-most a struggling teenager transitioning from prince --> princess.
Prince Kohaku - the generic rich playboy, with a trio friend group, having a long-list dating history, but no depth to "why has he never fallen in love?". Well he did with the prince(ss). The dynamic between the two is somewhat cute, a normal love-story probably reproduced in 100s of shoujos. If there was something I wished for, is to have more scenes of him acting like a happy teenager enjoying life of a highschool student, instead of a 16 years old boy that tasted life fully at his age (which is never the case in reality or prince-like stories).
[CONCLUSION]: Nonethless, the manga was truly beautiful, the drawings stunning which was the main reason I started it. If I had to describe it in one sentence it would be "teenagers struck by beauty-at-first-sight".
