story :
The main character is Yukino Miyazawa, a Japanese high school freshman who is the envy of her classmates because of her good grades and immaculate appearance. However, this is just a charade she maintains to win praise—at home and in private, she is spoiled, stubborn, and a slob, and studies relentlessly instead of spending time with her sisters.

Her position is threatened by Soichiro Arima, a handsome young man who also gets top grades. Yukino considers his very existence to be a challenge to her class leadership positions and a threat to the praise on which she thrives, and so she vows to destroy him. But after some misunderstandings, they see past each other's facades and fall in love. The series follows their relationship as they are tested by school, family problems, and friends.

The manga goes on to cover the school's annual cultural festival (including a play written by Aya and performed by Yukino and friends), the revelation of the Arima family's past secrets, and the backstories of many other characters. The manga ends in the future when the protagonists (and their family) are in their 30s, just like how Yukino's parents start out in the story.
