Some people found the announcement of this title to come out of the blue… Others have no idea what it is. (Which is likely why you’re reading this.) Well what ever section you consider your self, Pioneer’s upcoming release of Ai Yori Aoshi might just be something you’ll want to take an extra look at.

By the name, and general look, first thing that comes to your mind will likely be “A love story” Upon a closer look, the series quickly will turn into a romantic comedy, done in a similar style to Love Hina… In other words quite a bit of fan service is used. But apparently it doesn’t go completely off the wall with it…

The series stars off with our lead character, Kaoru Hanabishi who bumps into Aoi Sakuraba who has come to Tokyo searching for her long lost love.... It turns out that love, is him. It seems they were aranged to be married 18 years ago, until it was cancelled when Kaoru left the Hanabishi family. Now she’s here to convince him to come back, despite the hard times he had with them.

It doesn’t should like an ecchi galore romantic comedy. But trust me, it is, once you see the crazy stuff he gets him self into each episode. Anyways moving on, the first volume titled Faithfully Yours. Is expected to be released February 25th… and a Collectors Box will be shipping with this as well, like all releases these days.
