But as fate would have it, they're more than classmates - they're roommates! Now, Mizuki must keep her secret in the classroom, the locker room, and her own bedroom. And her classmates, and the weird school nurse, must react to the new transfer student who looks like a very pretty boy...

yes,
By shenmen100 (seattle,wa) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hana-Kimi, Vol. 16 (Paperback)
So if you have read any of the previous Hana-Kimi's, which I am assuming you have, then you will agree with me when I say that Hana-Kimi is an excellent series and the art work is great and best of all it's funny, sweet and captivating all at the same time. My only criticism is that in the beginning the series was moving pretty fast, it was fun and you had high hopes for Mizuki and Sano, but as the story goes on and you get to the SIXTEENTH book in the series and Mizuki STILL hasn't:
a) admitted to Sano how she feels. b) thought about how screwed her situation is, because it's not like she can have Sano as a bf and have Nakatsu and others as friends, THEY ALL THINK SHE'S A GUY! c) figured out that he already knows she's a girl. d) figured out that he likes her too. Suddenly it starts to slow down as you look back and say, "well what have we accomplished in this series so far??" And I don't know about you, but this really reminds me of Gilmore Girls, Lorelai and Luke are MEANT to be together and then they can't get together until the 5th season and when they finally get together they can't even manage to stay together!!! p.s. sorry if you don't watch g.g. and that rant was completely meaningless to you! >.<

A bit slow...,
This review is from: Hana-Kimi, Vol. 16 (Paperback)
Hana Kimi is my favorite manga series, however, this volume is not one of my favorites (I thought volume 9 was a bit annoying too). This volume focuses mostly on Sano and his high-jumping, his brother, and his issues with his father. It has the potential to be interesting stuff if you're a huge Sano fan, but the drama gets a little overdone, like, "why are Sano and his father fighting again?"
There are only a couple "cutesy" moments between Sano and Mizuki in this volume, so if that's the only thing you're reading the series for, just be warned that you'll have to slog through this volume (and possibly the next one?) before you see any more fun stuff.

I love this series,

Hana-Kimi is a great shojo manga. This is quickly becoming my favorite. I can't wait to get my hands on Vol 17 in a few weeks.
I love the story but the art is also incredible. Its very captivating and heart warming.
