Mizuki and her friends go to the country, where they meet and try to help a ghost pining for his lost love. Then, for the big Christmas dance party, Mizuki and Nakao are recruited to help make up for a shortage of girls--by dressing up as girls! This turnabout for Mizuki, however, proves to be the least of the complications that flare up when the whole ploy proves too successful!

Wtf is with the word Yoicks! What is this Scooby-Doo? British translator? Sigh.

Boys dress like girls arc.

A bit messy with texts all over the pages as everyone had a lot to say about the ball. There's again a bullying theme and some of the guys are dressing as girls, it's a good introduction for future fan service.

3/5 stars.
This series is so addicting, it's hurting my soul.

[Madison Kozeny · Rating 5 out of 5]

It was nice seeing Kayashima get a bit of a spotlight in this volume. Looking back, I do think the ghost arc could have been more fleshed out, but this is overall a solid volume. The dance arcs is one of the more memorable ones for me. So much tension!

Volume 11 is like a chain reaction of comedic disasters—one silly event sets off another until the entire dorm is caught in a whirlwind of misunderstandings. Mizuki’s disguise somehow survives another round of suspicious glances, and Nakatsu is basically living in a rom-com fever dream. Four stars for absurdity with a side of heart.

Rereading this as an adult, I can’t believe how unbelievable it is and yet it is so much fun walking down memory lane. The pining in this is top notched. Besides the ghost story in the beginning, it’s all about preparing for the dance. I’m excited for the dance. 4/5

Rumah yang dibersihkan Mizuki dan kawan-kawan ternyata memang berhantu. Mizuki bertemu dengan hantu bersosok remaja lelaki itu. Hantu itu merasuki Nakatsu dan masuk ke kamar Mizuki yang sedang tidur. Beruntung Taiki bisa mengusirnya. Namun, hantu itu kembali merasuki Nakatsu sehingga pemuda itu tak bisa bangun dari tidurnya.

Mereka kemudian menemukan sebuah diari yang ditulis oleh seorang anak yang juga bernama Mizuki. Wajahnya sangat mirip dengan Ashiya Mizuki. Rupanya dulu dia dan hantu anak itu saling mencintai tapi terhalang perbedaan status sosial. Anak itu akhirnya meninggal karena sakit. Setelah diari itu dibaca, roh "Mizuki" bebas dan hantu yang merasuki Nakatsu pun berjumpa lagi dengannya. Akhirnya Mizuki dan kawan-kawannya bisa pulang dengan lega.

Menjelang natal, Ohsaka Gakuen mengadakan pesta dansa tiga tahunan dengan St. Blossom. Mizuki dan kawan-kawannya pun bertemu dengan Hibari Hanayashiki, ketua OSIS St. Blossom. Namun, karena jumlah murid perempuan St. Blossom lebih sedikit, beberapa murid Ohsaka Gakuen didandani sebagai perempuan, termasuk Mizuki (halaaah). Mizuki menurutinya karena iming-iming akan dibayar oleh Hibari. Dia butuh uang untuk membeli hadiah bagi Sano yang berulangtahun di tanggal 24 Desember.

Nakatsu langsung memaksa Mizuki untuk jadi pasangan dansanya sampai anak itu terpaksa menurutinya. Padahal, ia sebenarnya ingin berdansa dengan Sano.

Dr. Umeda lalu bercerita bahwa ada legenda yang mengatakan bahwa pasangan dansa yang memenangkan perhargaan pasangan terbaik akan bersama selamanya dengan bahagia. Mizuki jadi makin ingin berdansa dengan Sano. Namun, Juri, murid St. Blossom yang begitu berambisi menjadi ratu pesta tampaknya akan menyabotase para murid lelaki Ohsaka Gakuen yang berperan sebagai perempuan.

School Dance!! The boys school is grouping up with the girl's school. There are not enough girls. Then some of the boys are tapped to be girls and make up the difference. Of course Mizuki (a cute boy) is to be one of them and she will do it because she is going to be paid (so she can buy Sano a birthday gift!).
Dancing is not as easy as it is made out to be. And some of the girls are less than supportive (unless you count Rio, Dr. Umeda's sister). Will Mizuki get to dance with Sano??

nakao is just soo chilled out... even in the hunter house.

[Sophie · Rating 2 out of 5]

Again, mostly just filler. And that ghost story was so ridiculously short and simplistic that it wasn't even worth including.

[Kristin · Rating 2 out of 5]

The one with the dance.

[Ollie B. · Rating 5 out of 5]

The dance arc is my favourite!!

I figured it was time for me to get back to this series and finish it so I might be swapping back and forth between manga series for a little while until I’m done. I did enjoy this one, it just hasn’t wowed me and I needed a little break, but I think this was a good volume to come back to.

I binge read all of Hana Kimi. It's easy to see why that is so easy once you get into the second chapter of the series. Hana Kimi is filled with complex character moments, tension, and fun. All the characters come to life and its hard to put the story down. I've read my fair share of manga over the years and will continue to. I have the feeling that Hana Kimi will remain one of my favorites. I can't wait to get in a reread.

[Amanda · Rating 3 out of 5]

Ah yes, the obligatory ghost story & once again, Mizumi in a dress. For a girl pretending to be a boy, she sure gets all frill-ified frequently. I am also amazed @ the number of people willing to keep her secret. But, in the end, the drama of the unspoken first love and the sweetness of figuring out who you really are keeps pulling me in. I will probably read the whole series.

[Nur Fadilla Octavianasari · Rating 4 out of 5]

Whoa, being possessed by ghost.
well I'm reading it at this kind of hour (02.51 am), alone in my room with a little bit goosebumps here and there. Not to mention that outside my room is so damn quite and dark --"

[Dexter · Rating 5 out of 5]

Yay! Tension and love keep escalating! Sano and Mizuki are so close it hurts! Admittedly, the plotlines are a little ludicrous, but that's not exactly a bad thing in shoujo manga. I also was kind of expecting more from Mizuki in a dress, but I'll take it. She and Sano are adorable.

[Erica · Rating 5 out of 5]

This manga was interesting. the school dance is an exciting event. Mizuki has a lot on her plate in this book, but she does a good job balancing it. For awhile I was worried about the photographer, but I think he is a pretty decent guy. Can't wait to see what happens next.

[Xilks · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's okay. New situations help but the over all problem is staying the same when I think there should be more progress with that aspect of the story. Otherwise it's seen as milking the plot. Which... it is already.

[Adrya Ribeiro · Rating 4 out of 5]

Esse volume começou com um capítulo pra lá de "assustador"..rsrsrs... Mansão assombrada, a Mizuki sendo perseguida por um fantasma..uii...achei lindo o final
É também um Baile de Natal, que mágico e claro todas as intrigas deliciosas...hahaha
