*f*marmalade boy: animation - 8, characters - 7, story - 8, enjoyment - 9 - overall it’s a 8

plot: Miki Koishikawa lived a normal life - until her parents tell her they’ll get divorced.. She doesn’t agree, until she meets Yuu Matsuura… the handsome son of another couple, with whom her parents are switching spouses. They all live together now in an enormous house, and Miki and Yuu find themselves falling in love. They’ll have to struggle with their own feelings, other people who want to be with them, and whatever Lady Luck and Fate throws in their ways…

my review: by the latter episodes i felt like this series was getting too drama filled; too many rivals too many lovely dovey feelings, there are actually 2 seasons to it (first season being 1-50 and then 2nd being 51 - 76)  miki reminded me of miaka from fushigi yugi and anju reminds me of ami from sailor moon and jinny looks like android 18, it’s a very unique shoujo in the sense that there are a bunch of characters to latch onto and most are couples..The manga is way better if you don’t want to deal with all of the drama. I ended up loving Miki and Yuu even if I wanted to not like them; I also liked Anju
