Hana wa Sakura yori mo Hana no Gotoku

I'm surprised this manga doesn't have any reviews, I enjoyed it very much.
The manga has not finished English translations yet. Anyways..
Story-8
The story is placed I believe before the Edo period (don't quote me on that), this is set in a time where women weren't allowed to professional dancers. So basically, a dancer named Hakubi was adopted into a family that were all dancers, Hakubi is however, a girl, so she has to keep her gender a secret to do what she loves, dancing. It is very good and you have moments like:" whats going to happen next?" Will they discover Hakubi is a woman?" The romance is very good but they don't concentrate solely on romance, making the story very well thought out.
Art- 10
The art was amazing, one of the best in my opinion. It's very clean and all the characters are absolutely beautifully drawn. I saw the cover of this manga and already fell in love with it. The art is just amazing.
Character-9
The characters are pretty interesting. Hakubi is a very strong heroine and is very much dedicated to dancing. She is somewhat innocent too and a very pretty character. Souma is a very charming man, he has long hair and very handsome face, he is kind of a tease but is very much interested in Hakubi. Like Hakubi, he is very dedicated to his career, he can be full of surprises too sometimes. Ugen, is also a very charming man and is kind of a tease as well, he is a flirt, but clearly shows an interest in the heroine as well. All the characters are well thought out and will not disappoint you.
Enjoyment and overall-9
This manga's characters keep the manga very much enjoyable and the suspense of Hakubi's secret and amazing art make this manga very entertaining. The time period is perfect for this manga. Overall it is great and I highly suggest it to anyone.

Love this manga very much. The story are not to Complex. Because it was the first debut of the mangaka, the art style Not very bad at all. Ugen and Souma have to compete to get their beloved Hakubi. This make the character more interesting.Otherwise, the additional character in this story make the manga more lifely and interesting especially Hakubi's little brother,Tenrin.
In the last chapter of this manga, we know that Hakubi's left/right arm has paralyze after the snake skin vanish. It make me want to cry because of the scene. In the nutshell, I REALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLY love this manga and still hoping that there will be a Anime adaptation for this manga.....=^=
