Kaguya-sama: Love is War (2019)
Shuchiin Academy is home to students from Japan's most successful and wealthy families, as well the nation's most brilliant young scholars. Among them, the Student Council President, Miyuki Shirogane, and the Student Council Vice President, Kaguya Shinomiya, are the best of the best. They would be perfect together, if not for their shared pride and narcissism. Two geniuses develop over the top and clever schemes to try and get the other to confess their love first, because to them, love is war, and the first to confess their feelings loses.

    • Trivia
      Ian Sinclair's version of the Narrator in the English Dub is significantly different than the Original Japanese's version, voiced by Yutaka Aoyama. Aoyama plays the Narrator Straight, as if studying the Characters in the same vein as a Documentary, while Sinclair is more playful, cracking jokes & laughing (most likely Improvisation on Sinclair's part).

    One of the most beautiful animes ever! Redefining the romcom genre

    If there's an anime that is hilarious but deep, then this is the one! Love is War is one of the most unforgettable animes ever! The love/rivalry between Shinomiya and Shirogane is a hilarious and entertaining story, and the animation is just incredible! Even the other characters, Fujiwara and Ishigami, are so well fleshed out and they just make me laugh my head off! Season 2 is also an absolute blast, and introduced a new character, Miko, while fleshing out the original gang! This anime never fails to amaze, and it is definitely one of the most iconic animes of the recent years!
