Summary:
Teppei fares poorly against Sylvia when he uses a foil, but things even up after Yuu brings him his sword. Sylvia is still a little faster than him though, so he admits defeat, and the two become friends. Sylvia and Charlotte also recommend him for the society club, but Seika opposes him joining since she sees him as an outsider. She feels that he lacks dignity and class, so Teppei vows to develop it, and Seika gives him until the party in a week. The high-class etiquette that Teppei needs is hard for him to learn though, and Charlotte, Sylvia, and Yuu try to teach him. Charlotte in particular instructs him on dancing, and she kisses him on the cheek as a reward in advance. One night, when he’s not practicing, Teppei chats with Yuu about what he’s doing and about making friends and allies. Yuu calls herself his friend, and she tells him how his grandfather helped her and urged her to do what she could, and this inspires Teppei to do his best. When the party finally arrives, Teppei is able to impress everyone with his dance with Charlotte. Seika admits that he did well, but she’s still not entirely satisfied and wants him to host his own party.

I thought I’d like Seika’s character, but after this episode, I really can’t stand her anymore. Her haughty attitude is really annoying, and I wish that Teppei had just slapped her or something. I don’t see why he has to jump through so many hoops for her either. Given how popular and powerful his name is, he should be able to start his own club organization on his own terms. I guess though that this is all moving towards having Seika fall in love with him - which she is already starting to - and becoming one of the people he can trust. I like the other girls so much more than her though. Charlotte’s aggressive flirting is very fun to watch (how is it that she always ends up on top of him?), Yuu is the one who probably understands him the best right now and seems the most mature thanks to all of the character development she’s gotten already, and even Sylvia has had some cute moments. If I were to rate them, I’d say Charlotte = Yuu > Sylvia >>>> Seika.
While I may not have liked Seika, the show itself is still quite entertaining. The battle at the beginning was a little shorter than expected, but at least there was a battle, and plus the humor is still good. I also like how the Yuu scenes are a nice change of pace from the more light-hearted material, and now that all four main girls have become active in the story, I’m curious to see what direction the writers and director go with it once its past the Seika stuff.

lol after seeing Seika in the last part of the last episode i already said oh i don’t like her, but yeah this episode she keeps pushing it, like she is the only one who has a different situation.
dam Charlotte is just gaining points on Teppei taking the aggressive approach. will it work? probably.
he should have won with this http://randomc.maximum7.net/image/Princess%20Lover!/Princess%20Lover!%20-%2003%20-%20Large%2007.jpg move lol.

As soon as Charlotte landed on top of Teppei I was thinking about her bouncing up and down… I guess the writers think just like me.

Seika’s character development seems more along the tsundere type, which is quite a surprise…and yes, very irritating indeed right now. Looks like there will be more fights between her and Teppei next week.
I cannot bring myself to like Yuu, possibly because she is too nice, but yes, Charlotte is oh so fun to watch and so innocent and coy at the same time. The part where she was looking at Teppei’s manhood and asking about it was so funny.
Charlotte > Silvia > Yuu > Seika for me at this point. I doubt if it will change either, considering the four girls’ temperaments and personalities.

The only thing I find funny about Seika is that she babbles only about dignity & class when she has just about as much as a rabid dog. They really need to shoot down her character soon if this story is ever gonna get off the ground.

Geez, Seika is worse than I thought. Demand him to host his own debut party to “prove himself” to her? (I mean she, plus her cohorts, are the only ones at this point demanding that from him). So it wasn’t just being merely petty for her to be stepping on his feet in the preview - she’s trying to “take him down”
Methinks the girl in the pink skirt in the preview is going to turn the tables on Seika (and in addition, I think it’s Charolette, since those are her colors imho).

Really cute move by Yuu here (plus here she looks like Tama-chan from Bamboo Blade :D)

Forgot to mention - Charolette is kinda starting to annoy me with her airheadedness (obviously she has no idea how indecent this is, and sure is oblivious to how Sylvia feels about it). At least Sylvia isn’t being like most other female leads who’d “punish” the poor guy for that (*cough*Love Hina*cough)

Seika reminds of Haruhi for some reason right down to her arrogance and her random abuse of her subordinates. She unfortunately lacks Haruhi’s charisma that made her appealing. Besides she seems to have something against the Arima family, so maybe they’ll tackle that issue. Its only 3 episodes in so there’s plenty of time to develop her.
On the other hand I really like how Teppei steps up his game to prove himself. He’s definitely got more backbone than most harem leads.
The other girls are very appealing though, I’m surprised I haven’t found anything to complain about them. That might change in the coming episodes.

“On the other hand I really like how Teppei steps up his game to prove himself. He’s definitely got more backbone than most harem leads.”
Keep in mind, that doesn’t say a whole lot. A jellyfish has more of a backbone than most Harem male leads. Hell, most harem female leads have more backbone than most harem male leads.

Charlotte > all the rest. Having played the eroge, I’ll hold off a little on my reasons . . . I just home they stick to the eroge.

Sylvia FTW!!!
Though since this is called “Princess” lover, I guess we all see how this is going to end already. *sigh*.

@Oppai Seijin
I like Sylvias character more, Charlotte is good being agressive and to the point. But I have a soft spot for the tough fighter types like Sylvia.
ajt at 11:40 am on July 20th, 2009
Sylvia >>>>>>>>>>> Charlotte > Seika > Yuu
Don’t let the title fool you that Charlotte’s the one, they can just make up a new ending thats not in the game like making Yuu a long lost princess that was kidnapped by Isshin XD
Megas at 11:54 am on July 20th, 2009
@GP Yep, the ending is already set in stone. Charlotte is already trying to act like one of those backdoor characters that goofs off until her time comes. She first did it when they took a break after getting attacked in the 1st eps & the 2nd eps was nothing but her antics. The game was good, but Charlotte was so multipurpose that she couldn’t help but to show her magic in every situation.
I kinda feel sorry for the other two girls & Seika can go jump off a cliff. The problem with tsundere is that they always will go deredere at some point. The only thing Seika has going for her is her seiyuu. That’s the saddest thing I’ve said about any character.
You guys are really giving jellyfish a bad name. I was stung by one of those POSs. Let me tell you that they don’t need backbones. I don’t think we’ll every get a harem male lead that don’t get pulled around by the female counterparts. Its annoying, cliché, & downright dumb. But anyone who decides to fully break this mold will become GOD!

@Megas
Well, since this is based off of a game, there is a Sylvia end in there. But odds of that going on are lower at this point. Not having played the game I don’t know what to look for when it comes to signs of which path/ending they’re working on.
Don’t get me wrong, I like Charlotte as well, but she’s too much imo. So far she goes at her fast pace and it’s like, move outta the way. I feel at this point that Sylvia is the better match for the main. He was able to read her mood at the end of the 2nd episode and calling her lonely. I think that dynamic works better.
