Ai Yori Aoshi

Synopsis: Kaoru Hanabishi, a university student who lives alone, met a beautiful but confused girl dressed in a kimono at a train station. He offered to guide his way to the address she was looking for, which was in her neighborhood, but turned out to be an empty lot. Not knowing what to do next, Kaoru invited the devastated girl to her apartment and asked for additional clues to her destination. She provided him with a photo of two children that Kauru immediately identified as he and Aoi Sakuraba, his childhood friend. It happened that the girl in front of him is Sakuraba herself, her bride of commitment that came to Tokyo to marry him. His revelation was not only surprising, but also recalled the deepest part of Kaoru's memory for why he left the Hanabishi family first.
