The Hana-Kimi series is one of the more entertaining and well drawn mangas I’ve read. There is plenty of humorous tension as Mizuki tries to maintain her male façade. Mizuki is a fun character to follow, even if she has let her obsession with Sano go a bit too far. (Of course, what works in manga would be downright creepy in real life.) Nakatsu, one of Mizuki's fellow students, feels drawn to Mizuki and, not realizing she is a girl, begins to wonder about his sexual orientation. This leads to more hilarity, gender bending and farse. While this is a shojo manga and will have mass appeal for teenage girls, there is plenty of guy humor and male characters to draw in your boys as well. Over all a fun manga that any public or high school library should carry.
