Hisaya Nakajo (passed away in October 2023), the creator of the Hana-Kimi manga, originally published the series in Hakusensha’s Hana to Yume magazine from 1996 to 2004, resulting in 23 volumes in Japan. VIZ Media handles the English edition of the manga, and describes the first volume as follows:
Japanese-American track-and-field star Mizuki has gotten herself to transfer to a high school in Japan…but not just any school! To be close to her idol, high jumper Izumi Sano, she’s going to an all-guys’ high school…and disguising herself as a boy! But as fate would have it, they’re more than classmates…they’re roommates! Now, Mizuki must keep her secret in the classroom, the locker room, and her own bedroom. And her classmates–and the school nurse–must cope with a new transfer student who may make them question their own orientation…
