About Hana Yori Dango
Hana Yori Dango follows poor Tsukushi Makino clashing with the rich F4 clique at Eitoku Academy, adapted from Yoko Kamio's bestselling manga. The 2005 TBS drama ran nine episodes and became a ratings hit with Mao Inoue and Jun Matsumoto.
The 2007 sequel ran 11 episodes continuing the engagement saga, and Hana Yori Dango Final closed the story as a 2008 film. Watch the 2005 season, then the 2007 sequel, then the film. The three form one continuous romance, and the film assumes the full TV run behind it.
Good to know
Release order is story order. The 2007 season continues the same engagement plot and the 2008 film resolves it, so skipping ahead breaks the romance. Other countries' remakes, including the Korean Boys Over Flowers, retell the same manga separately and stay outside this order. The trilogy is complete, with the film designed as the farewell.
