In return for a business loan of 50 million yen, the prestigious Kamiya family gave their daughter Haine away to the Otomiya family. Haine, now an Otomiya, is appointed to the student council of the exclusive Imperial Academy, a private school for the aristocracy. Even though Haine is of proper lineage to be on the council, she finds herself struggling to find her place among the many secrets of its elite members, especially those of the president who holds her heart - Shizumasa Togu, aka "the Emperor."

I was at Borders, trying to look for a certain volume of a certain manga ((v. 12 of D N Angel B{, it wasn't there!)) and found this! I thought it was an interesting plot so I bought it ((v.1 not the whole series, with my Borders gift cards from some friends as gifts for my birthday)). But then when i read it, I loved the characters (except Senri, i though he was creepy, but I grown to love him too though) especially Haine!! Although the story got serious everywhere, as it progresses the minor scenes were hilarious to get me out of the well seriousness! At the end, I loved every single one of them, they were all good (meaning no evil intentions at the end) and all drawn hot, that I didn't really care who ended up with who, because they all look nice together!!! There are some people who don't like any of the things I liked from this story, but it's my opinion, and also like a lot of people tell me I'm very innocent so that could be why people hate this cliche and happy happy stuff, but I'm for fairytales that end of with Happily Ever After!!

One of the most cutest, yet adorably entertaining manga I've read lately!! I recommend this to anyone who likes Full Moon wo Sagashite and more Ribon works.
I really liked this series at the beginning, but then around the last chapters were kind of outlandish. I mean, I thought this was supposed to be a realistic high school manga. Or was I just expecting too much?
I thought it was a nice part to the story that Haine lost control, and just became a yankee because she didn't have the attention and crap, but then one night some high class guy [Shizumasa] meets her on the street, and recognizes her right away after years? Like, really? Come on.
If you just ignore the last chapters, SDC was pretty good in my opinion.

Spoiler (highlight to view)
Also, the ending was absolutely disappointing. I thought it would be as good as Full Moon wo Sagashite would be, but it wasn't.
I mean, why couldn't Tanemura Arina just make her choose one of them, and not be like "I MUST MARRY BOTH!!" I personally thought that she would end up with Takanari, since most shoujo mangas go for the tsundere guy. And technically, people can't be married to two people, right? I know it's a story, but can Tanemura just be a little realistic?

This series was really spectacular to me. There were portions that I did not like, however on a whole I feel it is one of my favorites by the story line.
It wasn't such a bad manga to read, I think it is more of a painful manga. The ending was not good, but the manga still turns out to be good. Yet what I don't like about it is that there seem to be a repeat of a plot in the manga that happen to her mother that happen to her. Over all this manga turn out to be good. Not one of the best ones though, but I still like it anyways. I was expecting more for the ending though.

I couldnt stand the main characters, in fact, the side characters were much more likable.
Starts out interesting enough with some sort of depth to it. But i suppose she got a bit crazy with the whole thing and tried to over complicate matters, losing me halfway. But being a huge Arina fan, i re-read and what i realised was how predictable it was going despite her "twist".
Granted, Arina has always done cliche stuff, but it was because of the way she sugar-coats it that i enjoyed it. Still, this one seriously went overboard with a gloom gloom gloom storyline becoming a and they all live happily ever after tale. Too unbelievable and too forced. I wish she tried for another kind of ending, one with more realism and more in tune with her story.
I bought the first 5 volumes but i doubt i'll ever get the rest. I'm sorely disappointed with this piece. Though the art's improved now (I've been reading her works since ION and KKJ), the story seems to be fluctuating too wildly. Hopefully, she'll get better.

I hated the ending, but the epilogue just came out, so I'm pretty satisfied 
I know a lot of people didn't read the epilogue yet, and are pretty dissatisfied with the ending. the story was hard to follow, and if you miss out on a chapter, you're completely lost but this story is beautiful and it has some depth into it. There's some beautiful artwork in here too, for me, this is one of her best works, I cried and laughed through the whole story.

Picture this, care-free girl gets mad at parents and feels she cant' live up. Becomes a delinquent and meets a kid from her childhood. Cliche? I think so. Follows her dream boy to the school he goes to. Cliche? DING! Overall, this story was a bunch of cliches bundled up one after another. However, I have to give the author some credit for the beautiful art, but when you start out, the story is very hard to follow and characters rushed. Happy ending haters, this is not the story for you. Also, cliche haters, you should try your luck somewhere else.
Okay, this story is written like a huge poem. There are random phrases that make you go "That sounds pretty... but does it have anything to do with anything? O_o"
I want to shoot Haine in the forehead. Servant-kun needs better aim D:
There are so many jumps in the storyline. One second they'll be one place, the next they'll be in another with no connector between the two.
Lastly, the adults seem to be ageless. None of them look like they're any older than 20-25 besides the twin's dad.

I am a big fan of Arina Tanemura-sama but reading this manga made me lose a lot of respect for her.
I don't understand why this manga is so popular and is getting high ratings. The story was awful. It wasn't even fair or tolerable. No, It was awful.
And you'll hate the main character Haine. Some characters are fairly likable.
The ending was horrible too. The only plus side was the awesome graphics/animation.
Overall, I would not recommend this manga.
