Hey, Class President! (生徒会長に忠告 Seitokaichou ni Chukoku) is a Japanese yaoi manga written and illustrated by Kaori Monchi. The manga was serialized in Shinshokan's Dear+ magazine and the serial chapters collected into four tankōbon, the first one released in September 2005,[1] and the fourth in May 2009.[2] It is licensed in English by 801 Media, and the two volumes were released in March and May 2009.[3] It is licensed in German as "Highschool Love" by Egmont Manga and Anime.[4]

Plot

Even as he tries to keep the student council president Kokusai - who unwittingly exudes his powerful, man-seducing charm - out of trouble, Vice President Chiga finds himself being drawn to the president's strength and power. Chiga wonders how he, being such an intelligent individual, can be so unwillingly taken with a boy who is so country and simple... But watch out, because the president's naivete is simply irresistible!

Reception

Leroy Douresseaux felt the story depended on desire, rather than characters or sex, describing the artwork as a "fever dream of want",[5] but felt that in the second volume, the characterisation improved.[6] Rachel Bentham described the artwork as "wind swept"[7] and said that the second volume's sex scenes were the most explicit that she had encountered.[8] Danielle Leigh enjoyed the protagonists' "stumbling attempts to connect on a deeper level".[9]
