Kaguya-sama: Love Is War
A psychologically clever romantic comedy where two brilliant, emotionally guarded high schoolers engage in an escalating battle of pride and manipulation to avoid confessing their feelings first.
Considered a genius due to having the highest grades in the country, Miyuki Shirogane leads the prestigious Shuchiin Academy's student council as its president, working alongside the beautiful and wealthy vice president Kaguya Shinomiya. The two are often regarded as the perfect couple by students despite them not being in any sort of romantic relationship.
