HANA-KIMI (花ざかりの君たちへ 〜イケメン♂パラダイス〜)

The captivating, all-boys boarding school,

where hotties gathered: Ohsaka Academy

Suddenly, a transfer student from America arrives.

Name? Mizuki Ashiya.

Sex? Female.

Sano jumped, so my reason to stay here, is gone.

I’m going back to America.

Why didn't you stop him?

You're fine with never seeing Mizuki again?

Don't leave.

Papa,

please!

Please let me stay here a little longer.

Ashiya, that's not a shrine.

Oh,

long time no see.

Did you make an offering?

Morning.

Hey.

- What's up? - No,

I just... you know.

I'm glad you stayed behind.

It's thanks to you, Nakatsu.

- M-Me? - Yeah.

Mizuki...

Yeah?

The other day, I said...

I need you.

Remember?

Oh...

I was happy to hear that.

Since I...

also need you, Nakatsu.

What?!

I-I see.

Then you already...

know what I want to say.

Huh?

I...

- really — - "Think you're a great friend", right?

What?

Same here. I think of you as amazing friend.

Friend...

Right, that's how he interpreted it.

So that's how you play, oblivious boy.

Wait up!

Feels like forever since we've been

- in school. - It is the new semester.

Man, it really feels like we're high schoolers.

We are high schoolers.

Well, everyone aside from me,

- has the intelligence label of an elementary schooler. - You mean "level", not "label".

Morning!

As always, you guys haven't improved one bit.

- Right, Mizuki? - Right!

Right!

Hey.

You're in a bad mood.

Not really.

Don't "not really" me.

You were fine this morning.

Don't let him put his arms around you.

What was that?

You should be more careful.

What's that suppose to mean? It's fine, we're friends.

That's not what I meant.

- What I'm trying to say — - Why're you getting worked up?

Oh.

Maybe...

You're on your period?

What?!

- Y-You — That's — - Dude, it's just a joke!

What a boring response.

Get seated.

Listen up.

I'll be your homeroom teacher, again. Looking forwards to it.

I haven’t jumped…

at a proper event…

in front of your eyes, right?

So...

Don't leave.

Thanks.

To all at Ohsaka Academy,

good morning.

I am the charismatic camerawoman, Akiha Hara.

Akira Hara!

I have some big news for you all.

Therefore...

Yahoo!

What are you doing, you air-headed, world-class idiot.

It's dangerous there.

- We'll run you over! - Sleep talk after you sleep.

Exit's that way.

- Your hooting and honking is odd. How absurd. - H-Hold on!

Almost as absurd as drinking tea after it's cooled —

Oof.

He's not here. Not there.

Found him!

You seriously hit me, idiot.

And you. Use the breaks!

- Just so close! - Don't cut me that crap.

Why are you here?

- Work, obviously. - Don't touch me. Listen,

Sano jumped.

You got approved as an exclusive photographer.

Can I have you uphold your promise of leaving the Academy?

I can't do that anymore.

- What? - Wait one moment.

Look, look. Here!

What's this?

A job offer to shoot for "an・an"*?

Now that you know,

please gather up everyone.

Stinks!

Do that yourself...

What the hell is this?!

Hello everyone, thank you for waiting!

Alright, move, move!

- Move, move. - Hey,

- why did you suddenly gather us? - Now, now, now.

It's no use trying to suck our hot boy extract.

Wrinkles in your thirties, are hard to get rid of.

I'll wring you clean, brat.

I'm sorry.

Enough about age.

Now,

I'm ready.

This time, I had you all gather

for one reason.

I have received a job offer

from a famous publisher.

"A famous publisher"?

Don't tease, tell us!

Ta-daa!

"an・an"?!

"an・an", like... That, "an・an"?

“an・an" is an extremely famous magazine,

that gained popularity and support amongst high school girls

and grandmas alike, for quickly summarizing modern themes.

That was incredibly detailed, but I understand now.

Exactly. This issue is going to be about "Hotties in Town",

and I'll be using you as my models.

Model?

What a delightful word!

This will make Ohsaka Academy a household name.

Time for popular Namba to revive!

Hold on.

Hold on!

Unfortunately, I can't photograph everyone.

Only four people of my choice can be featured.

What? Really?

In which case,

let us spread my beauty to the world.

No, let's spread my muscles!

If you choose me,

a guardian spirit will protect you.

I've already chosen the four.

What?

Time to announce the models. Drumroll!

Tennouji!

First up!

It's...

Minami Namba.

Hell yeah!

That's an obvious choice.

Congratulations.

Next up!

Shuichi Nakatsu!

Thank you, thank you !

Baby !

I beg you, pick our dorm leader!

Otherwise we'll deal with the aftermath...

What do you mean, "aftermath"!

Our third model is...

Izumi Sano!

Good for you, Sano!

- I'm not joining. - Why? That's a waste.

Not interested.

Let us not chase those we have lost.

Who is the last model?

The final participant is...

Right here.

- It's me. - Tennouji!

Tennouji!

Mizuki Ashiya!

- Me? - Good for you, Mizuki!

- Let's do our best! - Yeah!

Why is everyone from Dorm Two?

Is this your scheme?

Dorm leader, dorm leader!

Dorm leader, calm down!

You're participating?

Of course I am.

They're going to make me look so cool.

Listen up,

models can be...

- forced to appear in certain ways. - Of course they are.

- I want to wear trendy clothes. - Not that.

- L-Like... N-Nude... - Huh?

- What? - I mean —
