There wasn't a thread for this so I decided to make one.

It was love at first sight for Aihara Kotoko as top student Irie Naoki delivers a speech on the first day of high school. After 2 years of secret admiration, "I don't want it" is the rejection she gets when she plucks up enough courage to hand him a love letter. Dejected, Kotoko vows to give him up. By a twist of fate, Kotoko's house collapses; her dad and her put up at a friend's place, who happens to be Naoki's father. And thus, life with Naoki begins and Kotoko's love for Naoki rekindles again. Much laughter ensues when scatterbrain Kotoko makes her countless advances (supported by Naoki's wacky mum) on ice-cold Naoki who hates girls and is a genius at practically everything from studies to sports.

Itazura na Kiss tells the love story of Kotoko and Naoki from their days as high school students to their marriage. The story continues after the marriage as they continue to grow as a couple.

I'm a huge fan of good romance series so this series sounds interesting. In particular, I look forward to the marriage as not many anime series follow a couple that far...

Oh..I Saw The j-Drama And It Was Wonderful... ^.^
I Hope The Anime Is Good Too : )

I cannot wait! Hopefully, this will be a 26 episode series (or more) since it covers so much, and I wish it could surpass the TW-Drama, It Started with a Kiss.

ANN generally lists tv series as 13 episodes (one cour) until they know how many episodes the show is, for instance here's a link to Soul Eater.

Soul Eater was confirmed to be a year long back in December.

[BakaWolf-m.3.3.w] will be subbing this show

Omfgbbqwtf · 2008-03-31, 22:05

This used to be a tv drama right? The 90s drama starting 柏原崇 and 佐藤藍子. If it is... then THIS IS SO AWSOME!

The Chaos · 2008-03-31, 22:56

Yeah..I Only See it J-Drama.. ^.^
Well Thanks To [BakaWolf-m.3.3.w] For Taking This Anime : )

Jiyuu · 2008-04-01, 01:44

hehe kinda spoilers to know that in the end they do get together,
but i guess , as mentioned before, that its still interesting as most shojo doesn't get that far and usually ends a lot sooner so I'll probably check this out when it'd start

Mgz · 2008-04-01, 03:54

I have good experience with KimiKiss recently, so hopefully Itazura na Kiss will be as good :P

Jiyuu · 2008-04-01, 05:36

i think you're on to something XDD

Julius Firefocht · 2008-04-02, 06:54

I dunno....on one hand it has Mizuki Nana, but on the other hand it has Daisuke Hirakawa AKA Itou Makoto of School Days infamy.

Not sure whether the good outweighs the bad, but still, its Mizuki Nana so this show deserves a chance.

Theowne · 2008-04-03, 23:25

I'm here because I liked the promotion image that I saw, so I might as well give the show a chance. The story seems like the type that I enjoy. I guess we're a small crowd here for now..

tun · 2008-04-04, 15:31

Ugh, the first episode was frustrating to watch. I don't like that Naoki #@$^@#$^#@$^.

littlekitty · 2008-04-04, 16:38

Is the raw up yet?

Theowne · 2008-04-04, 16:41

Yes, it is.

littlekitty · 2008-04-04, 17:10

That's great thanks! =)

Naoki is the guy, I assume we're suppose to dislike/hate him at first.

littlekitty Member Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: somewhere in your heart Age: 33	Spoiler for Episode 1: I haven't read the manga yet and I don't speak Japanese so I can only infer what was going on in the raw. Impressions: -Cute OP, the song has a relaxed feel to it -Not particularly fond of the character designs or the animation. I really like the color scheme, though. -Nice pacing for a first episode- Kotoko confesses to Naoki, her house collapses, and she moves in with Naoki. I suspect this episode followed the manga very closely. - I like how they emphasized the full cast of characters and not just the two leads. - I like the upbeat, fun ED
