The manga series Paradise Kiss, which the TV show is based on, was first published. It was written and illustrated by Ai Yazawa.
The Paradise Kiss manga concluded its run, completing the story that would later be adapted into various formats.
The live-action film adaptation of Paradise Kiss was released in Japan, bringing the manga's story to the big screen.
The anime television adaptation of Paradise Kiss was aired, further popularizing the series internationally.
Season 1 was one of my favorite anime binges in a long time. Such a fun mix of thoughtfulness (movement through time), silliness, and cool scenes (The Ruins of The King's Tomb). I can't wait to watch season 2. I know it's airing as I write this, but I like taking in entire seasons at once if I can manage it.
