When she used to live America she idolized him like crazy and wanted so badly to meet Izumi. With her best friend Julia she transformed into a boy and moved back to Japan and started her campus living whit who else but Sano Izumi. This brings more difficulties to girl but she doesn't give up no matter what! Little by little she gets used to boys around her and feelings are warming up all around the school...

Characters:
Ashiya Mizuki ~ She's a strong willed Japanese girl who used to live in America. Izumi is her idol but she's feeling a little more than only friendship. She has brown short hair (which she cut when attented to a all-boys school) and usually wears boys' school uniform.

Sano Izumi ~ At first he's a little cold towards Mizuki but little by little starts worrying about her. He actually knows Mizuki's secret. He's a former high jumper who stopped when gor injured. But he started jumping again thanks to Mizuki. He's black short hair and dark eyes.

So what makes it good?
The reason why I started to read this was because one of my netfriends had read it and noted it to be one of her favorite mangas. So I became curious and started to read it and actually fell in love with it. The main character is a big win! She's not one of those usual shoujo girls and she's confident of herself when going to all-boys school without hesitations. That's really something to respect. Not many would do that. But at the same time I found it annoying because she's complete opposite of me.
But natures of other characters and many complicated relationship problems are something to look forward to. Something suddenly happens when you wait it the less. But of course you can find some chlise parts in this manga. Those aren't annoying thing in anyway though. Plus this is complete manga so you don't have to wait updates.

WARNING! Contains spoilers! Don't watch if you're afraid of those! 

I still wanted to add this because I thought it would give a better picture of the serie. =) And this one is cooly made.
