Description: Princess Princess
Princess Princess is based on a manga of the same name.
The main character is Toru Kouno. He transfers to an all boys school so he won't be a burden to his uncle, who had adopted him after his parents died. When he first arrives, everyone keeps commenting on his beauty. He's weirded out by this until he hears about the princess system. It's where boys dress up as girls. It's to liven up the dull life of an all boys' school.
Not everyone can be a princess though. It must be a first year student because they have more free time from studies, their bodies haven't fully developed yet, and it's easier to dress them up in girls' clothes. From all the first-years, only the ones with the best looks and most suited personalities are chosen to be princesses.
Their duties are to wear girls' clothing to morning meetings or school events, to encourage others at school, and cheering at school events.
There are some luxuries. When there's a conflict between a princess' work and school class, absence from class or leaving early can be considered as school vacation. It wouldn't show up on their attendance record. Every month they receive 30 school lunch vouchers. Therefore, when they eat at school, they don't have to pay. All necessary school supplies are all covered by the princess budget. The photography club takes pictures of the princesses and sell them to other students. For being the model of the photographs, they receive partial profit for pocket money.
Toru meets the fellow princesses, Yujirou and Mikoto, who becomes his closest friends, along with Akira, who is to be the next president of the student council.
