Kaguya Shinomiya is the heiress of an old-money conglomerate; Shirogane Miyuki is the public-school upstart who fought his way to student council president. They have liked each other for almost a year. The problem: a confession would be a concession, and a Shinomiya does not concede. So they wage a quiet, multi-stage psychological campaign — playing music boxes, calibrating umbrellas, weaponizing the school's annual pageant — each trying to engineer the other into saying it first. The story is the campaign, played for comedy and occasionally, when the council staffer Chika Fujiwara is not derailing them, surprising heart.

An excellent rom-com, emphasis on the com. I recommend it to first-time romance anime watchers.
A fun rom-com with clever writing, great characters, and great character moments.
I enjoy Kaguya-sama: Love is War way better than anyone else does. (Full series review part 1) (No spoilers)
A perfect representation of our chaotic teens
A romcom with a twist that keeps it fun and interesting, though it's laid too thick for the first few episodes.

I loved it so much. It's laugh out loud from beginning to end
Kaguya-sama: Love is War is an outstanding romcom that anyone can walk away from wholeheartedly adoring.
If you want your fix of romcoms or shows starring manipulative egotists, this is almost certainly the anime for you.
A unique psychologically driven romantic comedy, with a very charming cast. You can't go wrong with this one.
