Description
Yukino Miyazawa is the perfect model student. She's pretty, kind, good at sports, and is always at the top of her class; but she's not all that she seems. It's all an act of deception; she is really the self-confessed 'queen of vanity,' and her only goal in life is winning the praise and admiration of everyone around her.

When she enters high school, she finally meets her match: Soichiro Arima, a handsome, athletic, popular, and very intelligent young boy. Ever since he stole the top seat in the class from her, Yukino has hated him, and has been plotting on how to take back her former place as the object of all other students' admiration.

What she wasn't expecting, however, was that Soichiro, the very boy she hated, would confess his love for her; or that he would find out about her deception - and use it to blackmail her!

Together, they discover that they have more in common than they knew, and they slowly begin to bring out each other's inner selves.

* Also included are the following short stories in this manga:

The Tiger and the Chameleon - A Promise
for One Week

I often find shoujo to be immature and childish, but Kare Kano is probably one of the best manga i've ever read. It's heartfelt and funny without being sappy. The character development is exceptional and I would recommend this for anyone.

I think this is one of the best manga there is. Excellent artwork, story, character development, humor... you name it!

Unlike most shoujo manga, this one is over 20+ volumes. And unlike Hana Yori Dango, Kare Kano actually moves forward in time. At volume 18, roughly 3-4 years have passed since the beginning. You'll see changes in character, plot focus, background etc...

Words arent enough to describe how good this manga is. Read this!

Hello! I started buying and reading this manga probably 2 years ago and since then i've loved it. :D I've got the whole series and i can't already since this is probably going to be one of those series where i'd keep for a really long time and reread it again and again. LOL I especially like this series because it does not only focus on one main couple, umm sorri i've forgotten how to spell their names in english cuz i've got the chinese version hehe! But nevertheless, this is a very worthwhile series to read and i especially love the ending of the series, cuz from the start of the series you wouldn't think of that ending and how it would have perseptive of the future and stuff hehe i just LOVE IT! Definately a 10 out of 10!

Great story and plot. All the characters develop and have their own story/characteristics. The story itself is fun to read,

I'm surprised that this manga didn't have any reviews yet. Imo this is one of the mangas that set the standard (along with Marmalade Boy and Hana Yori Dango) for "shoujo comedy romance with a touch of drama" that are everywhere.

Imo this has the best type of ending (I haven't read the end yet, but know how it ends,) with a future perspective of the characters as well as closure to most (all?) the stories. It's very refreshing to witness a great work with an ending that has such closure. We all know how often mangas are left with open endings.

Having said that, I noticed that the author re-wrote some facts later in the story (How Arima met and fell in love with Yukino) that she explained in much details early in the work. Inconsistencies like this pisses me off, no matter how minor they are.
