Book excerpt: 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. As if becoming a part-time babysitter at a strip club wasn't bad enough, struggling student Godai up and moves in there--basically because it's the only place where he can study in peace. Compared to the drunken din of Maison Ikkoku, bunking at the strip club feels like a retreat to a Buddhist monastery. Back at the drunk tank (i.e. Ikkoku)--and with Godai out of the way--the stage is now set for Coach Mitaka to make his final play for the beautiful widow Kyoko Otonashi, but a pregnancy scare with his (almost) bride-to-be Asuna may force his hand. Will his years of wooing finally win him Kyoko's eternal affections, or will he settle for a lifetime of marital bliss with the patrician (and independently wealthy)Asuna?
