Title (English) Hana Yori Dango

Title (Japanese) Hana Yori Dango

Advertising
Fantasy Novel

Notes English name: Boys Before Flowers;
Genre(s): high school, romance

Classification shoujo

Synopsis The title, one of those Japanese punning titles, means something like "Boys before Flowers". The heroine, a fairly ordinary girl from a humble family, is sent by her parents to a high school where the other students are from wealthy and snobbish families.

Review The parents hope to get rich by marrying their daughter well. (One of the main characters is heir to a large corporation and has a motor yacht the size of a small cruise liner!) To begin with, she is quite severely bullied, gets rubbish thrown over her, chased by youths with brooms, etc. Later, the action is more mixed, with some romantic entanglements. This is an attractively designed series, and (unless you count the aspirational lifestyles) contains no fantasy. An excellent series, and if you want to know more, search the Net for sites.
