Princess Princess Plus

When I stumbled upon Princess Princess Plus, I was thrilled to find another work by Mikiyo Tsuda, the author of Princess Princess and Family Complex. Despite this particular piece falling short compared to her other works in most aspects except for the art, I still enjoyed the manga and recommend giving it a try.

Story- 7
The plotline of Princess Princess Plus mirrors that of Tsuda's hit series, Princess Princess, where two boys are chosen from an all-male freshman class to be "Princesses"—males who dress as females to brighten up the gloomy atmosphere of a school without girls. However, unlike the previous series which centered more on the role of the princesses, this manga focuses on the relationship between the two new princesses, the wealthy and naive Izumi Tomoe and the poor, blunt Matsuoka Kiriya, as they attempt to form a bond despite their vastly different backgrounds. First impression? Glaringly cliché.

Art- 10
Tsuda never disappoints in this aspect, and the art is, as always, stunning. Beautiful boys grace every page of this manga, complete with flowering backgrounds and sparkling auras.

Character- 6
While there are some very entertaining characters in this manga, the main ones aren't among them. Izumi Tomoe is rich and clueless but ultimately means well and is simply seeking the love his work-obsessed parents never gave him. On the other hand, Matsuoka Kiriya is poor and insensitive, living with his male host elder brother and innocent little sister. After the untimely death of his parents, Matsuoka struggles to let his guard down. Sound familiar? Of course, it does. These are stereotypical descriptions of all high and low-class anime characters ever seen in manga. Personally, I found the eccentric air of the supporting cast far more enjoyable than these two.

Overall- 7
Art alone cannot carry a series, and although this had its enjoyable moments, the characters didn't engage me—although I could easily stare at them all day.

Uh oh. What is this? ntr shit? This fucking god appears 800 years later because the kid he made immortal found happiness? That's kinda, like, 800 fucking years too late.

Ehh, didn’t interest me. Gave up at 3/12

Funny thing is I remember reading it when it was serialized in Indonesia haha. I gave it until the dragon slayer chapter before just skipping it completely afterwards when it’s in the magazine

yeah pretty weird

the only disrespectful thing here is saying "rest in peace" instead of saying that and be a hypocrite, i implore you guys to instead pray for him to be forgiven in the grave i mean a hundred million praying for him that would benefit him a lot in the after life because you know why? he is currently in his graveyard getting whipped by 2 angels

Like I get the troupe of the dude's character type but .... GOD DAMMIT MAN!

so wholesome and wholeheartedly Desexualize your mind

Kinda creeped out by her brother and couldn't read past chap 3.
