5.0

Hikari Hanazono has been consumed with the desire to beat her school rival, Kei Takishima, since she was a child.
Following him to a expensive private school and always losing, Hikari will beat him.
--------------------------------------------
Like many of the mangas from the early 2000s parts of this series doesn't age well (Kei's sexism being one of them).
I was obsessed with this series as a tween, so I bought the 1st 3 volumes because I got them for $10.
Overall, I enjoyed it.
It's filled to the brim with shojo tropes, enemies-to-lovers and it's funny.
It's a good read and it's best if you don't think too much and just go along with it.
