Synopsis

The romantic (sort of) comedy Maison Ikkoku, from beloved creator Rumiko Takahashi ( InuYasha and Ranma 1/2 ), is presented in a new version in its original episodic order! Travel into Japan's nuttiest apartment house, and meet its volatile inhabitants: Kyoko, the beautiful and mysterious new apartment manager; Yusaku, the exam-addled college student; Mrs. Ichinose, the drunken gossip; Kentaro, her bratty son; Akemi, the boozy bar hostess; and the mooching and peeping Mr. Yotsuya. How can Yusaku and Kyoko ever be alone when the motley crew at Maison Ikkoku are always inviting themselves to every get-together and social event? When Kyoko and Yusaku finally have some one-on-one time, their housemates' gossip and meddling leads them to learn the hard way that home is where the heart is!

Author Bio
When Rumiko Takahashi was 17 years old, her interest in comics was limited to reading them and occasionally copying a character in the margins. Fourteen years later, after the runaway success of such comics series as Urusei Yatsura, Maison Ikkoku, and Ranma 1/2, she is arguably Japan's favorite comics artist, with close to 50 million copies of her books in print.
