What is Hey! Class President?#
Hey! Class President (also known as Seito Kaichō ni Chūkoku or Highschool Love) is a romance series that falls under the shounen-ai and yaoi themes. The story centers on the relationship between Vice President Chiga-kun and the student council president. While Chiga-kun is an intelligent individual, he finds himself drawn to the president, who possesses a powerful, man-seducing charm and a simple, “country” personality—though he is also known to have a temper.
If you are looking for a story about an intellectual being unexpectedly captivated by a stronger, more straightforward personality, this is a great choice. You can buy the manga to dive deeper into their relationship.
Is the Anime Really Finished?#
When asking if the anime is “finished,” it is important to look at the timeline of the source material. The anime adaptation was released in November 2009. However, the original manga was serialized from September 2003 all the way until June 13, 2015.
Because the manga continued for several years after the anime’s release, viewers who watch only the anime will likely miss a significant portion of the story. To get the full conclusion and see the complete arc of the characters, you will need to continue with the source material after finishing the video adaptation.
