description ItaKiss Overview

When her newly-built home is razed to the ground by an earthquake, low-achieving, clumsy, and troublesome third-year high school student Kotoko Aihara is forced to share a roof with the school's—and possibly Japan's—smartest student, Naoki Irie. Kotoko is not actually a complete stranger to Irie-kun; unfortunately, a single love letter that she tried to give him in the past has already sealed her fate as far as he is concerned. Throw in some quirky friends and a meddlesome mother, and Kotoko might not even have a snowball's chance in hell of winning the older Irie boy's heart.

help ItaKiss FAQ

Why does Kotoko Aihara move in with Naoki Irie in ItaKiss?

Kotoko's newly built home is destroyed by an earthquake, leaving her family without a place to stay. Her father has a connection to Naoki's family, so Kotoko ends up sharing a roof with the brilliant Naoki.

Who is Naoki Irie in ItaKiss?

Naoki is Kotoko's exceptionally intelligent classmate and romantic rival. His calm, high-achieving personality sharply contrasts with Kotoko's clumsy and low-achieving reputation.

Does the ItaKiss anime continue beyond high school?

The anime follows Kotoko and Naoki as their relationship develops beyond the initial school setting. The 2008 television adaptation has 25 episodes and was produced by TMS Entertainment.

Is ItaKiss the same story as It Started with a Kiss?

Both titles adapt the manga Itazura na Kiss, but It Started with a Kiss is a Taiwanese live-action adaptation rather than this anime. ItaKiss is the 2008 Japanese animated version centered on Kotoko Aihara and Naoki Irie.
