I never would have bought this set just by reading the description , guys dressing up as girls at an all boys school ,blechh! . But I saw the trailer and thought I'd give it a chance since I like off the wall humor.
If you like Ouran High School Host Club , you'll love this show , I personally think this show is better. This one is going on my list of favorites , it is very entertaining.
The story is basically that the school chooses 3 first year students with pretty boy looks and make them princesses . The penalty for refusing ? The school flunks you . The rewards? Free lunch tickets, all school supplies and uniforms paid for , and cash from sales of princess photos .Oh and one other thing , if one drops out , they all get punished.
I don't want to give away too much info . So if you like a good (yet implausible)story , great character development and a seriously funny series , then you should pick up this series ,you'll get a lot of entertainment for a cheap price. There were times I laughed so hard I had to rewind because I couldn't read the subs.

The basic story is of a very prestigious all male school in Japan that has a rather odd custom. In order to inspire the student body to do its best (in sports and various activities) at least one first year student with pretty-boy looks is chosen to be a 'Hime' or princess. It just so happens that this year there are three such Hime and the story follows them around in their various tasks and events. If that was all the story was about it would be short and very boring but also the personal lives of the three Hime are explored. One is embarrassed to have to dress like a girl and is constantly worried about anyone outside of the school finding out about his 'job', while another has some issues with relating with his family that he needs to work out. The third Hime is an orphan that is trying his best (that he knows) to deal with a rather obsessed relative. The stories all deal with feelings or situations that most everyone (male/female) have dealt with in their life to some degree so I give it pluses for that. I also liked the fact many of the more obvious tropes and cliches are NOT explored in the series so again a thumbs up for the writer(s). Artwork is just okay, nothing ground breaking. For some relatively cheap and entertaining fun I have to recommend Princes*Princess Complete, but one word of warning for the homophobes out there, there is at least one Yaoi scene and others implied.

I watched this show in one day.

I know some people might call into question how weak some parts of the story are, but I would just like to point out the incredibly beautiful artwork and the boys in dresses. That's more than enough right there to make this show completely and utterly watchable.

Okay so I've wtached plenty of yoai titles and this one seemed like more of a yuri because of the only moments they have seem to be when they're dressed up as females.

Basically the story is about a school which take extremely feminine looking men and turn them into cross dressers. This tends to be funnier then it sounds as they spend most of their time running around and trying to convince one of them to continue to cross dress. The blond takes his job very seriously and claims that he has to do it anyways and he might as well do it right, besides smiling nad going with the flow allows for an easy job. The blue haired one is quite calm about all this and only wants it because of all the free stuff you get with it, meaning spending money and a free meal everyday. Meanwhile the red head openly admits that he hates it and will never like it, he revolts and riots all the time, so the two often spend their time calling him an idiot or dragging him off to get dressed.

The series like most, make plenty attempts at trying to be funny. It doesnt always work in this one but they do have their moments. I did have quite a few laughs but I found myself watching it because I spent the money on it.

I bought this at F.Y.E not on amazon.

i had already seen all of the princess princess movies before. a friend let me borrow them, and i would have to say i fell in love with it! ^3^ not only is it funny, but has just the right amount of drama for me! so glad i bought it

I was a little hesitant about buying this dvd but based on the reviews it recieved from other customers I gave in. I'm glad I did. The storyline was great as were the characters. There was comedy as well as a little seriousness. Well worth the money.

I have only seen two Yaoi animes: Junjou Romantica, and Princess Princess. So far, Princess Princess is the best Yaoi anime I've ever watched, and I'm looking forward to the day I own this. I'm watching it online, and I haven't seen the last episode, but this series is wonderful.
For those of you who shy away from boys loving other boys, do not fret. This anime, from what I know, only has one Yaoi kiss, and they only did it to get a pursuing girl to stop chasing one of them (I will not tell ANYTHING of this anime. No spoilers here!), so you shouldn't worry too much about it.
Also, the dressing up is just for perks. To learn how the "Princess" thing started, watch the anime. It's well worth your time and money.

Another thing that you must know is this: this anime doesn't contain too much. There's really no pairings except for one straight pairing, and ALL of the characters are straight, so really, this isn't Yaoi. Still, though, it is a wonderful anime.

Great TV serie even though the cover's esthetic looks nothing like the videos (the videos look better - less naughty).

Ireally love this dvd and so does my daughter it is funny,interesting ,and has that yaoi feel.
