Synopsis
Kyosuke's just your average high-school kid - except that he and his whole family are CURSED with psychic powers. It goes without saying that the last thing they want is for anyone to find out about the family secret. The jig would be up and they'd have to leave town - so they'll go to extremes to keep everyone in the dark.

Meanwhile, Kyosuke has a problem that most teenagers would pay to have: two pretty girls, are in love with him. Hikaru knows she loves Kyosuke, and she's made sure everyone knows it. On the other hand, the mysterious and beautiful Madoka thinks that she loves Kyosuke, but she doesn't want anyone to know it - even Kyosuke!

Poor Kyosuke can't decidde who he really loves, and his psychic powers are much better at getting him into trouble than they are getting him out of it! Which means that things are never dull on Kimagure (Whimsical) Orange Road.

"I Was A Cat, I Was a Fish": A magical rope causes Kyosuke to swap souls, first with the family's pet goldfish, and then Jingoro, their cat. When he's found by Madoka and Hikaru, he gets a private lesson on how girls behave when they're alone.

"Hurricane! Akane the Shapechanging Girl": Kyosuke's tomboy cousin Akane (who has the power to impersonate anyone) comes to visit - and falls in love with Madoka!

"White Lovers": The gang visits Kyosuke's grandparents in the north of Japan for a skiing vacation, but an ancient curse causes an avalanche of trouble.

"Hawaiian Suspense": A vacation in Hawaii goes awry when Hikaru is mistaken for an heiress and kidnapped! When Madoka and Kyosuke try to rescue her, things quickly get out of hand.

"Stage of Love = Heart on Fire! Spring is for Idols": Hayakawa, a famous singer, comes to town to host a battle of the bands. A head-on collision with Kyosuke results in the two swapping bodies, and Hayakawa wastes no time in putting the moves on Hikaru and Madoka!

"Stage of Love = Heart on Fire! Birth of a Star": Kyosuke tries to convince Hayakawa not to talk about his experience and races to find Madoka and get her to the contest on time. Fortunately, he can teleport...

"An Unexpected Situation:" Akane suckers Kyosuke into pretending to be her boyfriend to impress her friends.

"Message in Rouge": Madoka away from home because she believes her father is cheating on her mother. What will Kyosuke do when she asks to stay the night?

THE MOVIE DISC:

On a brisk day in early Spring, Kyosuke and Madoka walk together on the grounds of a unversity, on their way to the signboard that will tell if they have passed the all-important entrance examination. A chance is overheard, and Kyosuke's thoughts range back... to the previous summer, when he was struggling to prepare for examinations, amid the myriad distractions of youth... to the previous summet, when he and Madoka finallyl came to grips with their feelings for one another... to the previous summer when he tried not to break Hikaru's heart...
