His and Her Circumstances Anime Summary

Meet Miyazawa Yukino the Queen of Vanity. She is graceful, elegant and friendly and always comes first in the midterms and class tests. She is helpful towards her classmates, who all look up to her as someone they can emulate and she is on friendly terms with the teachers. Altogether she is a model student a perfect person everyone strives to be like.

But it's not the real Miyazawa Yukino.

The real Miyazawa Yukino works from sun-up to sun-down preserving her image, studying frantically and grooming herself to beauty so that she can continue to be admired as this is all she lives for. The act has served her well for years since she was a small girl, until of course she gets to High School... She slaved away studying for the entrance exams determined to get first place again and become class representative, but shockingly comes second and is beaten to first place by Arima Souichirou as much a model student as Miyazawa pretends to be!

Yukino is determined to avenge herself on the devious Arima who stole her rightful high school debut by becoming noticed and adored by the class and teachers instead of herself. Poor Arima is oblivious while Yukino plots away and finds himself admiring her for the model student she pretends to be. When he confesses his love for her Yukino rejects him without even thinking it through then Arima discovers the secret of Yukino's guise and the fact that she's only pretending to be a model student and things start to get really interesting!

His and Her Circumstances, or Kare Kano (short for Kareshi no Kanojo no Jijou) combines the absolutely hilarious with the touchingly romantic and about both characters is a sense of realism that really draws you in and you can find yourself actually relating to the characters as though they were real people. Even the supporting characters are interesting and don't always interfere with the plot as can happen in some animes (won't mention the harem style fan service in a what could have been great Ai Yori Aoshi - how annoying were those supporting characters!! Whoops I mentioned it - oh well...).  I'd well recommend it!!!!!!
