Saka Mikami

Saka Mikami is a Japanese manga artist best known for the ongoing romantic series "Kaoru Hana wa Rin to Saku," which translates to "The Fragrant Flower Blooms with Dignity." The series follows the unlikely connection between students from neighboring but very different schools — one a prestigious boys' academy and the other a rough-and-tumble girls' school — weaving together themes of class, identity, and blossoming romance. Mikami's warm, expressive artwork and talent for heartfelt character dynamics have earned the series a devoted readership. The manga is serialized in Square Enix's Monthly GFantasy magazine and has been collected into multiple volumes.
