About “Itazura na Kiss”

Itazura na Kiss is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kaoru Tada. It was first serialized and published in 1990 by Shueisha through Bessatsu Margaret magazine. The series became highly popular and established Tada as a well-known manga artist in Japan. Due to its success, three live TV series were produced in 1996, 2005, and 2010, with a sequel to the 2005 drama released in 2007. In 2013, a remake titled Mischievous Kiss: Love in Tokyo was made. The manga was never completed because Tada died unexpectedly from a cerebral hemorrhage. However, the series continues to be published with the permission of her widower. The manga has sold 35 million copies, making it one of the best-selling manga series of all time. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA 4.0.)
