           Re-read. It s so sexist. Very cliche and a bit underwhelming. At the beginning with the soon-to-be-emperor (forgot his name) (view spoiler)[when he is about to kiss her, that's romenticized desite being pretty near rape. It's sexual assault, but they turn it into this super romantic thing. And then, to top it off, Sakura has to apologize to Aoba because the almost emperor forced her to kiss him, despite the fact that SHE didn't want to (hide spoiler)] So that's just... NO. I was hoping for a slap but nothing happened. Then Sakura apologizes because poor Auba, he got drunk and maybe slept with Yuri. But it's Sakura's fault for being jealous. 
There's more. And the Rurijo-Hayate romance is extremely cliché, boring and toxic.
