From the beloved creator of Inuyasha and Ranma 1/2, the romantic (sort of) comedy Maison Ikkoku, in a new edition 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. Funny, touching, and a tad off-kilter, Maison Ikkoku is the great Rumiko Takahashi at her very best. Coach Mitaka is dashing, athletic, financially set, and extraordinarily popular with the ladies, but there's one little aspect of his personality that has curtailed his success with the lovely Kyoko from day one--his crippling, petrifying, and all-around embarrassing fear of dogs (Kyoko's dog Soichiro in particular). Mitaka has gone into seclusion to cure himself of his phobia, promising that he will return as a new man...But will he emerge from his canine-chrysalis in time to win Kyoko's heart, or will his lot be forever thrown in with the shy, patrician, and multiple dog-loving heiress Asuna?
