Maison Ikkoku: Box Set: Vol. 1

This popular anime series gets its name from the ramshackle Japanese boarding house that serves as the center of the action -- the place where plucky collegian Yusaku Godai tries to romance the widowed building manager. The first installment of the multivolume set contains episodes 1-12 and introduces the rest of the quirky tenants, including an alcoholic mother, a scantily clad waitress and a nosey parker.
