Description: Shiratori Ryuji wants to become a picture book writer, and he moves to an apartment, Narutaki-So, in order to go to an art school in Tokyo. The Narutaki-so is an old Japanese style one-story house which doesn’t fit in with the urban scenery. It's owned by the cousin of his mother, but the manager of the apartment is Aoba Kozue. She is his second cousin, and they met with each other when they were children although he doesn’t remember her much. She is in the second year of a high school attached to Aoba Junior Collage.

There are five people living in Narutaki-So. First, Chanohata Kotomi is living in the room #1. She is a best friend of Kozue. Then, the resident of the room #3 is Momono Megumi. She is a kind of person who goes her own way. In the room #5, Kurosaki Sayoko and her daughter Asami are living. Asami is in the first year of a junior high. Finally, in the room #6, Haibara Yukio is living with his puppet, “Johnny”.

They are all characteristic and eccentric persons. However, in fact, the most eccentric person is Kozue. She has a secret; when she is shocked at something, she changes her personality. Not knowing this, Shiratori moves to Narutaki-So to realize his dream. What kind of a new life will be waiting for him?

heh... Thanks Batoto and Hiyoko no GAO for this manga...
 

Beautiful ending.

Ahh just as I remembered... I really love this manga even years after I first read this. 11/10 would read again haha

It really is a shame that it looks like so few people on batoto have seen this.

Knowing how many people use this site as their main source of manga, it might be forgotten by those who come after us, but I place it among the greats.

 

If you've stumbled upon this page one way or another, take the time to show this one to your friends.

The whole multiple-personality feels kind of forced and it's pretty silly, but it's still hard to find a romance with pacing this good; it captures everything a slice-of-life should be perfectly.

This soothe my soul. Every human need a place to rest their mind utterly. I hope I can find a place like that in my life.

This ones is a good read.

Enjoyable read and feel good story.

Characters are typical manga archetypes but the fact that they all express realistic human emotions, appropriate to the situations they encounter, gives them some depth.

And that's how you properly end a manga. 

Didn't hit me as hard as I thought it will. The transition between the first half and the second half is too sudden for my taste, it feels as if the author ran out of ideas and simply went ahead with the pre-planned ending. While it's great how large and varied the cast is, it turns into a chaotic and awkward experience as the author tried to progress the story while trying to allocate enough panels for the side characters. The arc style progression where every main character's given their fair share of spotlight is partly to blame as well; there's simply too many side characters introduced that was promised a return but never given an appropriate stage for their eventual termination as the main story progress. They simply come back from time to time and disappears out of the blue till the epilogue hits.

Spoiler

 

Nevertheless, it's a great heartwarming story for casual readings. It's a shame that I never managed to really get into it, especially the ending. The cast grew too large for the author to manage at the end.

This was so good I read it in one night, then read it over again the next.

I almost cried for the ending

I watched the anime and love it, but this is on another level, a really good manga, became one of my favorites now.
sweet story, sweet ending. <3
Normally, I don't care for romance or slice of life, but this is an exception. If the volumes get released in English, I will buy them and save them for my children for when they get old enough to appreciate it.
This is a masterpiece truly brilliant in my opinion.
those four farewells really teared me up - ending was beautiful regardless...
Nanoko's vacant stare gets me every time. It's cute, creepy, and hilarious all at once.
probably the only good harem. since the harem are all the same girl.
it was very touching, i glad i found this series
i cried so much in the last 10 chaptersdefinately a favorite of mine.
reminds me of love hina in a sense. both MC's are somewhat hopeless but are very strong willed. and you also have those sweet moments that make you wanna cry a lot and lots of moments where the MC and someone else have a heart filled talk with one another.
i like the ending very nice love how the quadruplets are the personality's
Sooo different from the anime, it was really good ^^
Thanks for uploading it here~
one of my favorites
