Hisaya Nakajo published the Hana-Kimi manga in Hakusensha’s Hana to Yume magazine from 1996 to 2004. A total of 23 volumes were released in Japan, with VIZ Media releasing the English edition of the manga. Nakajo passed away at the age of 50 in October 2023, and her legacy continues with the new anime series.
Viz Media describes the series as follows:
Japanese-American track-and-field star Mizuki has gotten herself to transfer to a high school in Japan…but not just any school! To be close to her idol, high jumper Izumi Sano, she’s going to an all-guys’ high school…and disguising herself as a boy! 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 school nurse–must cope with a new transfer student who may make them question their own orientation…
