About Mahoraba ~HeartfuL days~

Here is what Mahoraba ~HeartfuL days~ (まほらば ~Heartful days~) is about, retold in plain terms: a comedy, drama and romance anime by J.C.STAFF (2005). At its core: Shiratori Ryuushi is a young artist-in-training, about to start studying at a vocational school. Arriving at his new lodgings, Narutakisou, he finds himself the focus of attention for the collection of weirdos that inhabit the place.

Soon after, he also crosses paths with and falls for the landlady, Aoba Kozue, who seems to be both lovely and charming. However, Kozue is not what she seems to be... in fact, she's more.

As a comedy title, timing, character chemistry and running gags decide whether it lands. Kozue Aoba (Satomi Arai) and Tamami Chanohata (Yui Horie) are two of the characters you will meet early. Think of it as a pick for viewers who want something light between heavier series. With 26 episodes in total, there is enough room for the story to develop.
