A special bonus chapter of The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity was published in the July 2 issue of Weekly Shonen Magazine (Issue 31). Titled “Episode 2.5,” the chapter tells a new story featuring the main characters Kaoruko and Rintaro. The chapter is also available in English on K MANGA.
Set before the main events of the series, the bonus episode takes place at Rintaro’s family-owned cake shop and shows an early moment in his connection with Kaoruko. This extra chapter was specially drawn to celebrate the upcoming TV anime adaptation, which premieres on July 5 in Japan. You can see the cover page for the title, which is titled “That Regular Girl,” below.
Studio CloverWorks is in charge of the animation production, with the anime set to air alongside two other works from the studio. Netflix has listed a July 13 premiere for some Asian regions, while it’s listed for September 7 in the United States and numerous others.
Created by Misakami Saka, The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity follows Rintaro, a second-year student at Chidori High (a school for boys with the worst grades) who helps at his family’s patisserie. One day, he meets Kaoruko, a kind girl he quickly bonds with. But things get complicated when Rintaro learns that Kaoruko attends Kikyo Girls’ High, a prestigious school for wealthy families. As their friendship grows, they have to navigate the challenges and schemes from their classmates to stay together.
