It was good but for a romance it could have been better

First off this anime is a reverse harem bishounen, which means a whole lot of beautiful male characters and what's nice about it is that two of them are princes (as such brothers) and both love the same girl, one like a brother, another one like a lover. So.... what am I so bummed about. Well this anime has two seasons but you don't really see much development on the romance side of things. There's a good chemistry between the two main characters but by the end of the second season it falls flat. I must say however that this anime is one of those rare beauties that flow so naturally and remains as unconfusing as possible. Apparently the light novels on which this anime is based makes for a better read than watching the anime itself ... well if it does come to that then I would not mind. A good anime but a really disappointing end that is not at all what one would expect from a budding romance. Hanasakeru Seishounen takes the cake for the best reverse harem bishounen i have seen in a while. :)
