While browsing Yahoo! JAPAN’s trending topics, I stumbled across “Hanazakari no Kimitachi e.” Curious, I looked it up—and realized it was the original manga behind that famous drama starring Maki Horikita! And now, in 2025, it’s getting its very first anime adaptation. As a total newbie to the series, I couldn’t help but dig deeper. This post is a gentle guide for anyone like me—curious but new—to discover what “Hanakimi” is all about.
🌍 What is “Hanazakari no Kimitachi e”? One day, I was casually scrolling online when I stumbled across the name. I wasn’t sure if it was a romance, but it caught my eye. Turns out—it was the drama that starred Maki Horikita! I hadn’t watched it back then, but the name sounded familiar. And now, surprisingly, it’s getting its first anime adaptation. That alone was enough to make me want to dig deeper.
🌍 What’s the story about? It’s a hit shojo manga by Hisaya Nakajo, serialized from 1996 to 2004. The plot? A girl disguises herself as a boy and enters an all-boys boarding school to support her athletic idol. Romance, comedy, and chaos unfold in the dorms as she tries to keep her secret—and her feelings—under wraps.
🌍 I only remembered Maki Horikita. Back in 2007, the drama starred her along with Shun Oguri and Toma Ikuta—what a cast! Though I didn’t watch the whole series, I vaguely remembered the image of a girl in disguise at a boys’ school. It had remakes in Korea and Taiwan too—truly a pan-Asian hit.
🌍 2025: The anime is finally coming! Nearly 20 years after the manga ended, it’s getting animated for the first time. That’s huge—and the cast looks solid. For someone who spent their 30s grinding in Final Fantasy XI (yep, that was me), it feels surreal to be learning about this now.
🤔 なぜ今アニメ化?
調べてみて、いろんな理由が重なってることが分かった。
原作はずっと人気があって、再評価されていた
2020年代は“平成レトロ”ブームで、昔の名作がまた注目されている
ファンから「アニメで見たい!」って声がずっとあった
そして、中条先生の画業30周年という節目
このタイミングで「よし、今や!」ってなったのは、自然な流れやと思う。
🌍 Why now? The timing seems perfect—nostalgia, fan demand, and a new generation ready to discover it. Plus, the late Hisaya Nakajo’s 30th anniversary makes this adaptation feel like a tribute.
🌍 Still undecided—but curious I’m kind of into anime, but rom-coms aren’t always my thing. Still, this feels like something worth checking out—even just the first episode. Who knows? It might be a hidden gem.
