by RumikoTakahashi (Author)
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!
