Plot

Haine Otomiya, a 15-year-old high school student at the elite private Imperial Academy (帝国学園 Teikoku Gakuen), was apparently sold to the Otomiya family by her father, Kazuhito Kamiya, for 50 million yen. Disoriented with her place in life, she became a gang member until she met Shizumasa Tōgū, who told her to live life how she wanted to. Recognizing Shizumasa as the author of a treasured picture book given to her from father, Haine reformed herself and entered the Imperial Academy to try and win his love.

However, Shizumasa is the Emperor of the school, the sole Gold rank student as the admired President of the Student Council. Through various circumstances, the Bronze-ranked Haine is tricked into becoming Shizumasa's bodyguard and assigned the special rank of Platinum - which designates her as the Koutei's companion. To Haine's surprise and disappointment, Shizumasa claims not to know her and acts coldly toward her. Still determined to win his love, she soon learns that the Koutei is not Shizumasa, but his twin brother Takanari. In the brothers' childhood, Shizumasa won the right to be recognized as the heir to the prestigious Tōgū family, which left Takanari to become his brother's "shadow" and was reported to have died. Because Shizumasa is sickly, Takanari is forced to assume Shizumasa's identity and reluctantly falls in love with Haine. Their relationship is strained by Haine's uncertainty as to whether she loves Shizumasa, whose kind words saved her during her darkest crisis of identity, or Takanari, who is revealed to be the author of her beloved story book. In the end, she decides to marry Takanari.

Characters

Student Council

Haine Otomiya (乙宮 灰音, Otomiya Haine)
Voiced by: Hōko Kuwashima
Haine is a fifteen-year-old former bronze-ranking student at the Imperial Academy, but she is enlisted to become the bodyguard of the student council president and given the platinum ranking. Haine was born to the Kamiya family but was adopted into the Otomiya family when she was 10 years old for ¥50 million . Out of disillusionment with her new step-family, Haine became a delinquent in 9th grade under the nickname "Seashore Cinderella." However, Shizumasa inspires her to change her ways.
Once she discovers that Takanari is posing as Shizumasa, she wrestles with her feelings for the both of them, eventually choosing Takanari after she found out that he was the one who wrote her favorite childhood picture book. In the final chapter, Haine decides to marry both Takanari and Shizumasa, since Takanari does not have a family register and would be unable to marry her otherwise.
Tanemura did not name Haine after anyone in particular, but she stated that she picked the character for "ash" in her name as a reference to Cinderella.[2]
Takanari Togu (東宮 高成, Tōgū Takanari)
Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe
Takanari is a gold-ranked student at the Imperial Academy and the emperor of the student council. Initially believed to be Shizumasa, the story later reveals that Takanari is Shizumasa's older twin brother and is posing as him because of Shizumasa's health problems. Takanari is cold and distant, but after meeting Haine, he becomes kinder and later falls in love with her.
Haine learns that Takanari is the author of her favorite childhood picture book and chooses him over Shizumasa, but she is told that Takanari is officially declared dead after failing a test of inheritance given to all twins in the Togu family, and they are unable to marry. After Haine takes the test herself to save him, Takanari is restored to his family's register and is declared the heir to the Kamiya family when he marries Haine.
Shizumasa Togu (東宮 閑雅, Tōgū Shizumasa)
Shizumasa is a gold-ranked student at the Imperial Academy and the emperor of the student council, admired by many at Imperial Academy. However, the story later reveals that the real Shizumasa is resting at home due to having leukemia from a young age, and his older twin brother, Takanari, is forced to make public appearances under his identity. As Shizumasa had used underhanded tactics during their test of inheritance, he treats him coldly in hopes that Takanari will resent him as retribution. Out of guilt, Shizumasa refuses to let Senri notify Takanari that he needs his bone marrow to live.
Haine falls in love with Shizumasa from a young age, initially believing him to be the author of her favorite picture book. However, when Shizumasa meets her during her delinquent days, his kindness and advice inspires her to change. After Haine chooses Takanari, Shizumasa decides to leave the two to study abroad after his illness has been cured.
Ushio Amamiya (天宮 潮, Amamiya Ushio)
Voiced by: Yui Horie
Ushio is a silver-ranking student and Haine's best friend. Despite finding boys repulsive, she is popular with them and is given the nickname Lady Hydrangea (紫陽花の君, Ajisai no Kimi). Having known Haine since their delinquent days, she is very protective of her and joins the student council as their secretary to be with her. Ushio is in love with Haine, but she soon realizes that the only reason why she was so attached to her was because she didn't think anyone else would accept her. When Senri does so, however, she discovers that she has fallen in love with him.
Her father is in the real estate business and her mother is an ikebana master; Ushio is actually the daughter of her father's mistress, but was placed into the main Amamiya family at the age of 10 because his legal wife was unable to have children.[3] However, they do not love her so she does not speak with her father for the most part and lives in her own apartment. When the student council invades the Togu residence, she confronts Senri, and confesses her feeling for him. She asks if he only watches Takanari and Shizumasa because they are Shoka's sons. She is told to go home, but she tells Senri that she loves him. In chapter 47, Senri finally confesses his feelings for Ushio, and they become a couple.
Yoshitaka "Maora" Ichinomiya (一ノ宮 由貴, Ichinomiya "Maora" Yoshitaka)
Voiced by: Arina Tanemura
The treasurer and brains of the Student Council. Maora is actually a male, his real name being Yoshitaka Ichinomiya, and is childhood friends with Maguri. His parents are fashion designers and Maora usually dresses as a girl. The name Maora was originally a catch phrase he said a lot as a child. It eventually spread among his friends, and that's why most people only know him as "Maora", and not "Yoshitaka". He has two pets, a "mini-sheep" named Okori-makuri, who is the mascot of the series, as well as a cat, named Paru.
Maora is secretly the Postman (郵便屋さん, Yūbinya-san) of the Imperial Academy. As the Mailman, he bonds with Haine and falls in love with her. When his identity was revealed, he tells Haine he loves her and challenges "Shizumasa" (Takanari) for the Koutei title, just so he can make Haine his love. Haine becomes upset, not only because Maora is trying to take her away from Takanari, but also because Maora is only trying to use Haine as a substitute for Maguri, since they are both cheerful and can be rather stupid. Maora believed that he was too "weak" for Maguri, but after a confrontation from Haine, Maora realizes his love for Maguri and confesses to him. Similarly to Maimai from Sakura Hime: The Legend of Princess Sakura, his physical appearance is drastically different dressing as a girl: he is shorter, has bigger eyes proportionately to his face, a delicate feminine face and neck, as opposed to his masculine appearance.
Maguri Tsujimiya (辻宮 真栗, Tsujimiya Maguri)
Voiced by: Kenji Nojima
The vice president of the Student Council. Maguri is Takanari's best friend, even giving him the nickname of Shi-zun (initially he didn't know that Takanari wasn't Shizumasa and later nicknamed him Takataka when he knew). His family are yakuza members, but even then he has a soft side. His brother is Yūkimitsu, who was the former Emperor before Shizumasa. He is also the only one of the student council members to not kiss Haine.
At the beginning of the series, he is the secret "lover" of Takanari, but Haine discovers it is just a rumor intentionally spread so that girls would stay away from Takanari. When Haine becomes Takanari's girlfriend, however, Haine realizes that Maguri's feelings for Takanari are real. Maguri graciously gives up and pursues the Mailman, only to find out that he is really Maora. Maora gets angry at him for being so weak, since when they were younger, they were laughed at by their parents for saying they wanted to marry one another. Maguri realizes that he too loves Maora and promises that he will become stronger for Maora's sake.
Arina Tanemura imagines actor, Mokomichi Hayami as an ideal, cool, and tall Maguri. Their hair texture is about the same.

Otomiyas

Itsuki Otomiya (乙宮 樹, Otomiya Itsuki)
  • Rank: Formerly Gold
The former Emperor of the student council and secret boyfriend of the Bronze, Maika. Later, Haine finds out that he is and always has been her real father, and that Kazuhito Kamiya was not. Haine is the result of Maika and Itsuki, but was born after Maika and Kazuhito were married. Though it is given that because Itsuki was incapable of having children and as a result, Kazuhito offered to adopt away Haine to become the Otomiya heir, Kazuhito discloses to Maika that the actual reason behind his adoption was that he was returning Haine to her "real" father. Itsuki remains unaware that Haine is his biological daughter, but would later find out. After adopting Haine, he later falls in love with and marries Ryouka.
Ryouka Otomiya (乙宮 緑香, Otomiya Ryōka)
  • Rank: Formerly Bronze
Ryouka is Itsuki's wife, and claims she fell in love with him at first sight (when actually, she liked him when they were still in school). Before her marriage to Itsuki, Ryouka had already been married and had a son, Kusame, though her first husband is now deceased. She is a cheerful woman who likes to tease both her son and Haine, whom she cares for like her own daughter. During high school, Ryouka had observed Maika and Itsuki and knew that they were "close friends". She also said that she loved Maika when Haine asked her if she ever liked a girl.
Kusame Otomiya (乙宮 草芽, Otomiya Kusame)
  • Rank: Silver
Haine's stepbrother and Itsuki's stepson, Kusame is the heir to the Otomiya family. Secretly, he fell in love with Haine at first sight and refuses to call her onee-chan ("big sister") for that reason. Kusame is a silver, honor student and vice president of Imperial Academy Junior section's Student Council. He became vice president by earning points, not with money. He works in the Junior Student Council with Komaki and is forced to become her boyfriend because of a public confession. However, in a special not seen in the regular chapters of the manga, Kusame realizes that he likes Komaki and they become a real couple. After accepting Komaki's feelings for him, Kusame ends up competing with Tachibana for Haine's affection as their older sister.

Kamiyas

Kazuhito Kamiya (香宮 和仁, Kamiya Kazuhito)
  • Rank: Gold (although he was Silver before)
Kazuhito is married to Maika, Haine's mother. Kazuhito was originally the Vice Chairman of the Student Council when he was at the Imperial Academy while Itsuki was the Emperor. When Kazuhito first saw Maika, she was practicing ballet under a cherry blossom tree when she kicked out her leg and accidentally landed on him. He fell in love with her and believed that she loved him as well, but after seeing her and Itsuki kissing, he lost control and stole Itsuki's position through having a new election using underhanded means. He won the election by the students' "lack of confidence" in Itsuki and became the new Emperor. Immediately, he formed the rank of "Platinum" and granted the title to Maika, who became the first Platinum ever, announcing her as his girlfriend and almost forcefully binding her to him. Although he seems cold, he genuinely loves Maika and it is very evident in the later chapters that he cares deeply for her. Because of his reserved personality, his family is often unable to see how much he cares for them; when Haine was a child, he gave her the book that had been written by Takanari as a birthday present, and later, Haine learns that he set Haine's name as the password to Maika's room, both acts that allow Haine to realize how much her father loves her.
Kazuhito was believed to be Haine's father until it was revealed in the end of Chapter 35 that Itsuki is Haine's biological father. As a result, it is believed that Kazuhito does not care for Haine and has known for some time that she was not his biological daughter; his reasoning for "selling" Haine to Itsuki Otomiya had not only been for the money he needed, but also to return her to her "real father". In Chapter 37, however, it was revealed through a letter Kazuhito wrote to the Principal of the Imperial Academy that he does very much care about Haine and her well being, despite how coldly he acts toward her. It is also revealed that he gave her to Itsuki because she reminded him too much of Maika and he did not want Haine to be unhappy like Maika; therefore he thought selling her to Itsuki would make her free of the rules in the Kamiya family. He and Maika are expecting a fourth child, a girl.
Maika Kamiya (香宮 舞加, Kamiya Maika)
  • Rank: Platinum (was a Bronze before)
Maika is married to Kazuhito and mother to Haine, Komaki, and Tachibana. Originally Maika Rikyuu (離宮 舞加, Rikyū Maika), a Bronze and the secret girlfriend of Itsuki Otomiya, she became friends with Kazuhito, who fell in love with her. After Kazuhito won the Emperor election, she was forced to become his girlfriend. Her family pushed her to marry Kazuhito as her father was ill and their company would suffer without the money they would receive from her marriage. Itsuki encouraged her to marry Kazuhito because it would benefit her family, though he went through pain in order to do so. She pledges that though Kazuhito may have her through marriage, he would never have her heart. However, she finds herself unable to leave Kazuhito after learning how lonely he has always been and that she is an extremely important person to him.
When Haine is adopted away to Itsuki, Kazuhito reveals that he had been aware that Haine was actually Itsuki's daughter, a fact that Maika believed she had successfully concealed from everyone since Haine's birth. Something inside Maika breaks and she mentally loses herself, eventually becoming ill and hidden from the world. In Chapter 38, she regains her memories and reunites with Haine at the hospital in Chapter 39. She also confesses her love to Kazuhito after reconciling her own feelings for Itsuki and realizing that she had fallen in love with Kazuhito. In the final chapter, it is revealed that she and Kazuhito are expecting their fourth child, who will be another girl.
Komaki Kamiya (香宮 小牧, Kamiya Komaki)
  • Rank: Gold (was Silver before)
Komaki is Haine's biological little sister from the Kamiya family. She posed as Takanari ("Shizumasa") Tōgū's fiancée to protect Haine from being sent back to their father. Though proper and lady-like, she tends to have her moments of outburst, proving that she is indeed Haine's sister. She loves her sister, Haine, a great deal and refers to her as onee-sama ("older sister"), despite knowing that Haine is only her half-sister. Komaki is extremely devoted to Haine, becoming upset if others (like Kusame and Tachibana) try to spend more time with her than Komaki does. Komaki is the President of the Imperial Academy's middle school Student Council. She is also very stubborn and, on her first date with Kusame, kissed him. It is implied that Mizuki, the secretary of the student council was in love with her because he voted for her in the popularity gag and he was going to confess to her during her party. Kusame is very possessive over her.
Tachibana Kamiya (香宮 橘, Kamiya Tachibana)
  • Rank: Silver
Tachibana is Haine's biological little brother. Upon seeing Haine, he mistakes her as their mother because they are alike in appearance. He was rude to her until he finds out Haine is his older sister; Tachibana becomes very kind to Haine and develops an affectionate "little boy" nature around her. Kusame was jealous of him because he spent so much time near Haine. When he was born, it was expected that he would become the next heir of the Kamiya family as its only male heir. However, in the final chapter, it is revealed that Takanari, by marrying the Kamiya family's eldest daughter, Haine, would become Kazuhito's successor. He also is not speaking to Haine due to jealousy that he wanted to make her happy.

Togu household

Shouka Togu (東宮 抄花, Tōgū Shōka)
Shouka is the biological mother of Shizumasa and Takanari. She was also a kagemusha, or shadow, for her elder twin sister, Kyouka. Her attendant was Senri, and, as the two got older, they fell in love with one another. After Shouka gave birth to Takanari and Shizumasa, she and Senri eloped. However, Shouka quickly sickened because of her frail body and died, leading Senri to return to the Togu family. He removes his glasses in the final volume with Ushio at the place where she died.
Kasuga Togu (東宮 春日, Tōgū Kasuga)
Kasuga is, surprisingly, Takanari and Shizumasa's cousin. She is a member of Haine's old gang (Dark Mermaid), and she admitted that she was the most disappointed when Haine left. Called 'Top 2', they had fought well together. When Haine announced that she was quitting, Kasuga knocked out her teeth. She had kept them with her, and later handed them over to Takanari and Shizumasa. She gives up her yanki lifestyle to pursue Kiriaki.
Kyouka Togu (東宮 莢果, Tōgū Kyōka)
Shizumasa and Takanari's mother, the older identical twin sister of their biological mother, Shouka. Kyouka is apparently away on business on a frequent basis, so neither Takanari or Shizumasa see her often. Compared to Shouka, Kyouka's health has been stable, which was why Shouka became Kyouka's shadow. When Haine meets her, Kyouka helps Haine find and save Takanari, who had been imprisoned as Shouka had, as Kyouka believes she does not have the power to approach her father or stop Shizumasa from continuing the kagemusha system.
Touya (十夜, Tōya)
Takanari's servant and one of his best friends. Takanari once said that Touya is "the only person who understands me." He has a calm nature, and cares much about Takanari's happiness. He is very polite, gets nervous easily, and is friends with Riiko. He was adopted by the Togu family, therefore he serves them. He wants Haine and Takanari to be together. Touya gave Shizumasa Takanari's location in order to receive information about his parents whereabouts. His parents abandoned him as a child, and it has been revealed that one of his intentions is to get revenge on them.
Touya later on "betrays" Takanari so he can have his revenge on his parents, and also out of fear that Takanari might "replace" him with Haine in his heart. However, in chapter 44, it is revealed that Takanari sent him to spy on Shizumasa. When Haine decides to take upon Takanari and Shizumasa's grandfather's challenge, Touya interrupts her quest by threatening to kill her; while the twins have reconciled, Touya believes that as long as Haine exists, the twins will always fight. Haine simply understands that Touya is only afraid of happiness because it might betray him, so she promises him a happy ending; she even forgives him for accidentally shooting her.
At the end of the series, Touya accidentally catches Haine's wedding bouquet and gives it to Riiko. He reveals that he does love her back and apologizes for hurting her.
Kiriaki (桐彬, Kiriaki)
Caretaker of the real Shizumasa. At the end of the series, Kasuga is revealed to have a crush on him and has given up her yankee ways in order to pursue him, though her feelings are unrequited.
Senri Narimiya (成宮 千里, Narimiya Senri)
Voiced by: Tomohiro Tsuboi
The school physician, who loves cute high school girls. Apparently, he is a master of the martial arts as he was able to make Haine faint when she came to visit Shizumasa. He is a butler of the Tōgū family and is especially interested in Ushio, which in later chapters he says is because she looks exactly like Shouka. Senri had once eloped with Shouka, Takanari and Shizumasa's mother, but when Shouka died, he came back to the Togu family pledging his loyalty, and to repent for the elopement. When Ushio falls in love with him, she demands that Senri remove his glasses, which he strongly refuses. When the two meet during the invasion, he tells her that he was only kind because she resembled Shoka, and tells her to leave. She tells him that she loves him, and the two intensely kiss.
In the final chapter, he finally takes off his glasses in front of Ushio, and proclaiming his love for her. It is also revealed, that as part of a dying wish from Shouka, she told Senri that if he ever falls in love with another, he is to come back to the place where she died, and take them off in front of her. In a side story, he has a photo album of Ushio and he is jealous of her uncle and proves to her family that he cheats on women.
