When the beautiful Aoi stepped into Kaoru's life, he got all of the difficulties of cohabitation with none of the fulfillment. In order to renew their arranged engagement, Kaoru must return to the family he ran away from, and he's not prepared to do that. As if things weren't stressful enough, the new tenant in his building, the Japanese-raised American Tina, tests the limits of Kaoru's gentlemanly restraint with her open flirtation.

Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
Appeals to fans of Love Hina. Love Hina Style Harem Manga with LOTS of fan service - a little edgier and sexier than Love Hina, but still older teen in sensibilities. Inspired the hit anime, now available on DVD.
From the Inside Flap
Kou Fumizuki's dramatic comedy is a sweet tale of young lovers struggling against the traditions of their culture... The awkwardness between Kaoru and Aoi, as they try to remain proper while being quite attracted to each other, is just adorable! Surprisingly, though, there's enough intrigue and fan-service in this story to make it appealing to shonen audiences as well. -- Wolfen Moondaughter, Newtype USA

This review is from: Ai Yori Aoshi, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
this is the first series i have started in my new found fandom of the anime/manga world, and i love this series. Its funny, sexy, and a good story overall. In this, the second installment of the series, we find that three months have passed since Aoi and Kaoru have last seen each other. Aoi has gotten permission to stay with kaoru, but when they reach his house all his stuff is gone. A note tells him to go to a certain adress that just happens to be a summer home of the Sakuraba family, and who is waiting for them. None other than Miyabi. Miyabi puts out flyers that the mansion is a new appartment complex and is looking for tenants and Kaoru is forced to sleep in the servants quarters while his new girlfreind, Aoi, stays with Miyabi in the mansion. Things start to heat up when a friend and classmate of Kaoru, Tina Foster (an american raised in Japan), moves in with them. Soon they are joined by another classmate, i forgot her name, who is beautiful, kind, and downright clutzy. She comes seeking a job as a Maid and barely passes the tests Miyabi gives her.overall I thought that this manga was just great and i would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of Romanc/Coemdy manga.

This review is from: Ai Yori Aoshi, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
do you rember your first love? how it felt:) this is another cute story and its all about how one young girl fell in love. but the man left. she is willing to give up everything just to have him as her husband, she goes as far as to shame her family and ditch everything. it has very funny parts, and some of it is a little risky so i would say 16 and under not alloud to read, but other than some parts its very giddy giddy happy good no great manga

This review is from: Ai Yori Aoshi, Vol. 2 (Paperback)
In this second volume of the True Blue Love manga Aoi and Kaoru find themselves being moved into a Western style house. The idea is that nobody will know about their relationship because it might cause a scandal. The logic is flawed - when they get married won't there also be a scandal? Well, their problem is that they're not alone - Miyabi-san is there to act as a chaperone. Soon Tina, an American-born Japanese-raised college student, has moved into also, believing that Aoi is just the landlady and Kaoru is just renting a room.Taeko soon joins them (having been fired from her other job) and is soon both cleaning and breaking up the house. In other words the boarding house idea back-fires. Will the couple EVER get together? When will the families allow them to marry? Can you have TOO many nude scenes in bath houses? This volume seems to cover a lot of ground and a fan of the anime will notice it seems much shorter than the DVDs. Much of the plot elements are spread out over many of the anime's episodes, DVD 2,3& 4, in fact. This is because the anime came AFTER the manga, so the TV series added fillers that ADDED to the plot without slowing it down. The manga is for 16 and up, being a tad more mature in both scenes and humor than the anime, and a fan of the anime would enjoy the slight difference in the details. I plan to get the third volume, yes I DO!
