I loved this series in high school and figured I'd reread it as an adult to see if it holds up and it definitely does for me. I love it, it's so funny, I love how her motivation for success is somewhat unusual and I'm really excited to refresh my memory of the series.

I relate so hard to Kyoko. Get that sweet, sweet revenge, Kyoko! Definitely a good balance between the emotional stuff and the comedy in this one.

Been a while since I read shōjo manga and this reread after a decade had me in a chokehold all over again!!!! Perfect amounts of comedy, romance and girl power. Love the ambition and development of all the characters!!
