Marmalade Boy

Aired: 1994 - 1995

A shojo romance anime produced by Toei Animation for TV Asahi, adapted from Wataru Yoshizumi's manga serialized in Shueisha's Ribon magazine. After their parents impulsively agree to swap partners and remarry following a chance meeting in Hawaii, high school student Miki Koishikawa finds herself living under the same roof as Yuu Matsuura. As Miki and the prickly Yuu fall for each other, they are haunted by the fear that they may be blood siblings, all while navigating a web of tangled romances among their friends. Targeting a slightly older audience than typical girls' anime, the series ran as a long-format hit.
