First of all, this series begins with an introduction of Yukino Miyazawa, an accomplished student/athlete/teacher's pet/elegant teenager/"actress"/daughter, and finally, sister. At school, she pretends to be sweet, smart, caring, and perfect. However, in reality (and at home) she is bratty, spoiled, and slightly selfish -- like any other normal person! She is in fact very nice and friendly, but she acts extra nice at school to put up a good reputation and become loved/praised by teachers and fellow students. During the High school entrance ceremony, Arima steals her much loved school presidency seat away. She was ready to make her speech and take on all ther "much deserved" responsibilities when he came along ! Well, she starts acting very nice towards him -- even though her "real" side keeps thinking of bad things to say about him, etc. Her real thoughts are shown in a blue face which looks very very ghoulish and also comical. ^_^
The series deals mainly with Miyazawa and her relationship with Arima Souichirou (or so I've seen?). Included is Shibahime Tsubasa, a girl who Arima considers as his younger sister -- even t hough she thinks otherwise. Then, there's Asapin/Asaba, Arima's well...friend? his ego is larger than his head ... if you can look past his love for himseelf, vanity, and "dancing sequences" -- he's actually a very nice guy.

Anyhow, enough about the story, I'll get to that in my summaries.
This anime was directed by Hideaki Anno -- same director of Evangelion; this explains the classical music and similar street lights and overall feel. However, this is definitely a shoujo anime. There are 26 episodes total, it is copyrighted by GAINAX.
