Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku

Synopsis

From Kodansha: Chidori High is a boys’ school that takes in the dregs of society with the lowest grades. Next door stands Kikyo Girls’ High, where the wealthy, high-class families send their precious daughters. Chidori second-year Rintaro, who has a fierce face but a gentle heart, is helping at his family’s patisserie when he meets a girl named Kaoruko. The two hit it off right away but this blissful peace is quickly disturbed when Rintaro discovers that Kaoruko is actually a student at Kikyo. Worse, she doesn’t seem to realize what a huge problem this really is! Will these two be able to forge a path for themselves and sidestep the traps (metaphorical and literal) laid by their classmates? **Original Manga:** [Comic DAYS](https://comic-days.com/episode/14079602755421864479), [Kodansha Comics](https://www.kodansha.co.jp/comic/products/0000360687), [Pocket Shonen Magazine](https://pocket.shonenmagazine.com/title/01524/episode/329599) | [Cmoa](https://www.cmoa.jp/title/327606/), [Comico](https://www.comico.jp/magazine_comic/245784), [Lezhin](https://lezhin.jp/comic/t5_1916813), [Piccoma](https://piccoma.com/web/product/90793?etype=episode), [Pixiv Comic](https://comic.pixiv.net/store/products/1916813) **Official English Translation:** [Coolmic](https://coolmic.me/titles/3953), [INKR](https://comics.inkr.com/title/4882-the-fragrant-flower-blooms-with-dignity), [K Manga](https://kmanga.kodansha.com/title/10023/episode/320130), [Kodansha](https://kodansha.us/series/the-fragrant-flower-blooms-with-dignity/), [Mangaplaza](https://mangaplaza.com/title/0303008897/), [Omoi](https://www.omoi.com/series/the-fragrant-flower-blooms-with-dignity), [Renta!](https://www.ebookrenta.com/renta/sc/frm/item/147708) **Official Korean Translation:** [Kakao Page](https://page.kakao.com/content/62936672), [Mrblue](https://www.mrblue.com/comic/C000059832), [Lezhin](https://www.lezhin.com/ko/comic/fragrant_flowers), [Naver Series](https://series.naver.com/comic/detail.series?productNo=10319906) ##### Note: Nominated for the 47th and 48th Annual Kodansha Manga Awards in the Shounen Category in 2023 and 2024.
