But personally? My School President was not for me.

See, this type of series is quite rare for me. It's not a dumpster fire, and yet I very much dislike this series.
Because I fully acknowledge and recognize that on technical aspects, this series is good. It's a typical, solid rom-com. The actors are (mostly) good, the story's pacing is (mostly) good, and the story itself is also (mostly) good. The things that weren't great really aren't big enough to mention or without spoiling stuff.

But, superfans of MSP, beware of the following section.

The episodes are an hour long, which is TOO long. There are many characters. TOO many. The side romance involving Sound and Win was boring. There are so many romcom tropes that we've seen a hundred times, including increasingly creative ways to avoid even the slightest romance between the main leads.

If you're not into music or instruments (like I'm not), this series might add another layer of disinterest and disconnect for you on that basis. Because these characters' lives revolve around their band and their club, and the plot does as well.

You know, I don't necessarily hate school settings, but I DO hate high school settings with believably high school characters. This may sound contradictory in a way--wouldn't you want characters fitting the setting--but I personally prefer more maturity. It's fiction, and you can afford some suspension of disbelief for the sake of a less annoying plot/characters. The main leads and their surrounding cast of supporting characters (except for one) were just too childish for me.

An example of a school setting I did like, was in the Eclipse. Both the way the characters act and the story itself deal with mature topics. I rated the Eclipse a 9.5, even though it takes place 80% of the time within a school.

This I'm bringing up just to show that I'm not necessarily a high school setting hater, nor am I a hater of slow burn with nothing explicit--just take a look at my top series list.

But MSP was boring. It was long and drawn out. And even though I liked the main leads, they just couldn't keep my attention and carry the story to the very end. I forced myself to sit through the last few episodes simply because I wanted to finish it, and because I had hoped that maybe the ending would change my feelings.

I'm glad that MSP has found its audience, but if you're not a rom-com enthusiast, you may be very disappointed because I promise you, it's not going to change its formula. You'll know exactly what's going to happen and how it's going to end.

TLDR; MSP was a slowburn torture for me from the midpoint onwards, but I still implore you to give it a chance and see if you can handle the pace. Because it IS good. Just not good for me.
