Just by looking at the cover picture, you can tell it is another "Romeo and Juliet", "Delinquent and smart girl" cliche slapped together. However, the mangaka is able to turn these overused tropes into something amazing and wholesome that other mangas with the same plot simply could not accomplish.

The plot is simple: we start of from the perspective of a delinquent guy, our male lead Tsumugi Rintaro from a low-ranked public high school, coincidentally meeting with a petite girl, our female lead Kaoruko Waguri from a prestigious all-girls high school, at a cake shop owned by Rintaro's mom. Both schools are also coincidentally next to ...

Well-writtenKaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku (6)

Preliminary (71/? chp)

Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku is not a bad manga. However, I do not think it offers a distinctive enough experience to justify its high MAL score.

To compare, time tested manga like Chihayafuru, Tokyo Ghoul, Your Lie in April, and Fruits Basket are all rated lower than this manga. Current juggernauts like Spy x Family, Jujutsu Kaisen, Blue Lock, and Attack on Titan are also rated lower. It is in the same ballpark as big names like Blue Period, Solo Leveling, Frieren, Gintama, and Mob Psycho 100. So, what exactly are people seeing in this manga?

Mikami Saka is a skilled artist, especially with ...

“Actually, when I saw it was you I was so happy.”

Kaoru Hana wa Run to Saku revolves around Rintaro and Kaoruko who develop a friendship despite the hostility between their neighbouring schools. If you’re looking for a wholesome feel-good story about growth, friendship and love then this is it. I’m a sucker for fluffy reads so I was very much beaming with happiness while reading this. It has romance, friendship, parental love, healthy communication and heaps of growth. All of the main characters are very likeable and the dynamic between Rintaro and Kaoruko is great. They’re both warm-hearted characters who compliment each other very ...

Preliminary (20/? chp)

This series is so monotonous and flat that the only way it has to convey the emotions of its characters is through words, this series doesn't trust you as a reader/viewer and your ability to read between the lines, it tries to be emotional most of the time through words and that feels so artificial and forced at the same time, the emotions of the main character and his progress/development in only 20 episodes is excellent as well as the communication with his parents, in my opinion that's the only thing that is really worth it.

This is your typical melodramatic romance manga where nobody seems to act like human beings, but rather like actors in some larger than life play. Something as commonplace as going to the beach with friends is turned into an absurdly cathartic, life-changing event, with hearty and sobbing speeches about friendship and how much life has changed and how much they've been through in just those few chapters. And everyone is constantly on edge about something or other, and then nothing can be solved in a subtle or simple manner, everything should and will be aggrandised for dramatic effect. People are constantly walking on eggshells, blushing, ...

*All caught up as of writing this review 8/15/22

I don't do reviews but this series deserves it. It's a joy to read and both the main leads are just the best. The art is freakishly good for a weekly series, like the level of detail in the panels is stunning. Honestly a breath of fresh air what with all the cookie cutter high school romances I've read and watched. But if you're a sucker for this kind of stuff like me, I definitely recommend it. Only downsides of this series is that there aren't enough chapters and there's no anime adaptation (yet)

Why "Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku" is one of the best romance mangas right now.

Theres a good reason why this manga has such a high rating, and, although at a glance it may seem like an average romeo juliet story, similar to "Boarding School Juliet", its much more than that. The Characters, every single character is complex, and has different emotions. After just reading 5 chapters, you can really feel with the characters. Aftter 10 chapters, you can understand and sympathize with characters you may have hated just 5 chapters earlier. Even the characters that aren't very impactful to the story have some ...

People say im sorry the manga. I’m not joking. They say sorry AT THE LEAST EVERY OTHER CHAPTER. Sorry about nothing. About everything. Very mid. Character design’s boring. Kinda cute. Imagine this. Sanpaku eye trope the manga, but if it was made for people who have zero taste(the similarity between looks like a delinquent but actually isnt and all sanpaku eye manga is scary). It’s unbelievable how uninteresting the story is. Clearly Romeo and Juliet if all the Characters tripped over themselves to make sure not to hurt anyones feelings. They would apologize for having a different favorite color. Cab’t necessarily say it’s bad. More ...

Many manga and anime series have made me cried for sadness; but there's only been one who's made me cry true tears of joy and beauty; and that's "The Promised Flower Blooms With Diginity".

"The Promised Flower Blooms With Diginity" seems to start as your typical romance high-school manga. The idea about 'two schools fighting and not really getting along' may just sound cliché and overused. And it may just be. But don't get trick into thinking that that's what this series is about, 'cause it's really not.

Instead, "The Promised Flower Blooms With Diginity" speaks about the importance of being true to one's self, of ...

At first, Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku, or The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity, seems like a normal rom-com SoL story with a decent plot. The male lead and female lead go to two different schools, Chidori High and Kikyo Academy, that seemingly despite one another, however, alongside this plot, this story has become something much more incredible than first expected, it’s now one of the best ongoing stories out there.

First off, this series is incredibly wholesome, it’s such a sweet read. It has such a comforting feel and this feel comes from every aspect of the manga. The characters are likely the best ...

I love ts but holy lord, every character is an overly saccharine bundle of honey, always apologising for shit that doesn't matter or thanking profusely for holding the door open for them. the manga's a fun read but you'll have to accept that this doesn't take place on Earth, it takes place in the fuckin halmark christmas universe where no one's an asshole in any way, at all. even kaoruko's kikyo friends come around eventually. if this manga had a few characters that acted like fucking human beings once in a while it'd be a bit easier to read with eager eyes. but some of ...

What sets this manga apart from others is its exceptional portrayal of character development between the MC, FMC, and their friends. It has been a while since I've been so engrossed in a manga that I find myself re-reading certain chapters repeatedly just to satisfy my craving. This manga depicts a beautiful love story intertwined with deep friendships. Both the MC and FMC cherish their friends profoundly, evoking moments of awe and leaving you grinning at the adorable relationships portrayed.

There are hardly any cringy moments, or rather, I should say there are none, unlike other rom-coms I've read. Most of the time, I seek a ...

This manga is a story about people in different circumstances discovering their feelings for each other, a la Romeo and Juliet and it really isn't even trying to hide its influence. The art is good enough and the story has a simple premise so that's all I'll say on that, instead I'd like to focus on the characters. The characters are very wholesome, everybody is nice to each other and much like the simple premise every character has the SAME character arc(except the main character differs if only slightly). I shit you not it basically goes like this the entire manga: "Here are these groups ...

Upon reading the premise, I thought this was going to be like a boring manga with overused and exaggerated tropes and stuff but knowing its popularity and how it's considered the best romance manga I decided to give it a try.
I can definitely see why people say that it is the best and I haven't read or watched that much romance but I can agree.

This manga is genuinely good. It has an appealing art and everything is pretty perfect. The characters are well written, the pacing is good, it's sweet and sugary, and it feels very refreshing.

First, all the characters are so well written. It's ...

Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku is a manga that is defined by something not seen in the market of romcom, and that is good comunication. The characters act in good will, and are transparent in what they wanna and what they think, which is honestly a breath of fresh air. Every conflict is resolved with a good an old dialogue, where each character does his best to show their viewpoint.

In the beggining this was amazing. After all, nothing better for a feels good manga than to have wholesome conclusion to conflict, and no better way to have a wholesome conclusion than throught a ...

I often look back to simpler days. Days where I had friends that I could rely on to celebrate my successes and console me through my failures. Days where I didn’t have this overwhelming feeling of solitude engulfing my heart. Perhaps those days are nothing but a daydream, conjured by my fanciful imagination. But it’s a rather nice illusion to have, even more so a nice dream to chase.

“Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku” is a manga about love, friendship, and crossing boundaries. More importantly to me, it's a manga that encourages its readers to seek out the same. Friendship is a beautiful thing. A ...

I'm a sucker for Romeo and Juliet style stories so I am slightly biased but at 34 chapters in and this story hits the expected emotional beats without dragging out the story. I don't read much manga but this and Horimiya do seem to have a somewhat similar in that the both have great pacing and a good side-cast of characters to compliment the well written main leads. Chapter 34 made me stop reading to come leave a review because of how much reading the chapter made me smile. May go up to a 10/10 depending on how the later chapters go.

Hey! Just ignore the bad and mixed reviews. I’m here to tell you that if you're into a romance filled with emotion, funny moments, good character development, and a light plot without any intimate scenes, this manga might be just for you. From my personal experience, I’ve been reading a lot of action-packed manga with heavy twists and complex stories for a while, but taking a break from those and reading something wholesome like this makes me feel great! Highly recommended for viewers who enjoy anime/manga of this genre! (8.5/10)

The plot is typical, where two socially split people develop their romance, but it feels less forced and more natural compared to other mangas with a similar plot. The stark contrast between the mc's appearance and personality is so good (gap moe!!!). The character's expressions are drawn very well, the smiles are very warm and it's easy to see how a character is feeling (imo the art gives me Koe no Katachi vibes). The characters in the story feel realistic, with no overwhelming personalities/traits. The pacing of this manga so far is amazing, the characters don't go around in circles and develop each chapter. ...

Ok, let's jump right into it; this is a series that can best be described as a "palette cleanser". In a world chalk-full of harems, isekais, and high school romances where you literally can't go 3 chapters without either a panty flash, a character turning beet-red and running straight into the sun, and a loud "Baaaaaaaakaaa!!!!" followed by a literal slap from God (usually all of the above) this series is a wonderful breath of fresh air. Let's break it down.
