Nineteen-year-old Godai lives in an old-fashioned Japanese flat called Ikkoku. Godai is a loser: insecure and immature, and he failed the university entrance exam, so now he has to cram for another year as a “ronin”. His neighbours are not entirely innocent of his situation, as they binge drink in his room almost every day. There is the voyeur Yotsuya, the provocatively dressed barmaid Akemi and the elderly housewife Ichinose.

One day, when Godai is once again very annoyed with his flatmates and decides to move out, the Ikokku gets a new caretaker: the pretty Kyoko. Godai falls in love with her at first sight. What complicates matters is the fact that Kyoko is already widowed at 22 and still mourns her late husband. Will Godai and Kyoko get together in these chaotic circumstances?

A beloved romantic comedy from Rumiko Takahashi, Maison Ikkoku captures the humor, warmth, and emotional longing of life, love, and finding one’s place in the world.
