Godai screams in excitement and runs up to his room, ready to tell Kozue once and for all that Kyoko is the only woman for him. Yotsuya interrupts him however and mentions the annual New Year's Eve party at Chachamaru. Godai happily agrees to go and looks forward to seeing Kyoko again that evening. That night, everyone is enjoying themselves and the tenants point out how happy Kyoko seems to be with Godai now. Suddenly Kozue rushes inside the bar. Crying she tells Godai that she just couldn't tell her friend that she didn't want to marry him even though she does want to marry Godai. Upon hearing this Kyoko runs up and slaps Yusaku before leaving Chachamaru. Godai chases after her but she no longer wants to hear his excuses and tells him to move out. He says that he will not move out under any circumstances. Frustrated by this, Kyoko goes back to Maison Ikkoku alone and packs her backs. Early the next morning while everyone else is asleep she moves out of Maison Ikkoku, quitting her job as manager.

Kyoko Retires! Ikkoku, a Distant Memory? Godai learns that Kyoko has moved out and explains the Kozue situation to the other tenants. They tell him to go get Kyoko to come back to Maison Ikkoku and tell him that they won't let him come back until Kyoko has returned. Godai goes to the Chigusa's and attempts to see Kyoko but she refuses. When he loudly shouts that everything was a mistake she rushes into the foyer and pushes him out the door, telling him that she never wants to see him again. When Godai returns to Ikkoku he finds himself locked out and attempts to climb in through Kentaro's window to get inside. Over the next five days Godai goes to see Kyoko everyday, while her father decides to take it upon himself to tell Mr. Otonashi that Kyoko will not be returning to Maison Ikkoku. Mr. Otonashi goes to Maison Ikkoku to tell the tenants the news and finds the entire building in a state of disarray. The floors are covered in garbage and the tenants begin to tell him how inconvient Kyoko's absence has been for them (as she cleans up after them all the time.) With no other choice he hires a new temporary manager: Godai! The next day he calls Kyoko to tell her the news, and upon hearing that she's been replaced she begins to have second thoughts about her impulsive decision to leave Maison Ikkoku.

Kyoko's Big Shock! Akemi and Godai Together?! Kyoko has stopped talking to her father because of him going to Mr. Otonashi without telling her. As fate would have it she is so mad that she ends up deciding to go back to Maison Ikkoku to talk to the new manager. On her way back she stops in at Chachamaru and finds Yotsuya, Akemi and Mrs. Ichinose drinking. They tease her about leaving and Akemi takes things too far by telling her that if Kyoko doesn't come back then she'll go after Godai herself. Kyoko angrily tells her that she should and leaves in a huff. Before she goes back home she stops at Maison Ikkoku to see Godai cleaning the front walkway. Realizing that he's the manager puts her at ease and convinces her to go back home. Later that week Godai gets a call at work from Akemi. She's in a love hotel with no money and needs him to come bail her out. Threatening to kill herself if he doesn't Godai rushes over and finds a drunken Akemi in room 302. As the two leave the love hotel they just happen to run into Kozue and a group of her friends on the street. Shocked at seeing Godai leaving the hotel with another woman Kozue silently walks away. The next day Akemi tells Godai that he should be grateful that she helped him end things with Kozue, but Yusaku can't help but feel badly about the way things ended between them. Calling Kozue doesn't work however and so it seems that their relationship is doomed to end on a sad note. That day Mrs. Ichinose visits Kyoko at her parents' apartment and tells her that the whole Koze proposal was a misunderstanding and that she should come home. Kyoko is finally convinced and packs her bags. However on the way back to Ikkoku Kyoko runs into Kozue and the two begin to talk. Kozue breaks down in tears and tells Kyoko about seeing Godai and Akemi leave the love hotel together. Back at Maison Ikkoku the tenants are waiting for Kyoko to arrive.

Wedding Bells for Kozue! Is Godai's Love Eternal?! Kyoko walks up Clock Hill back to Maison Ikkoku remembering that Akemi told her that she was going to seduce Godai. Instead of going to Ikkoku she goes to Chachamaru to confront Akemi. As she builds up her nerve Akemi calls the other tenants to let them know that Kyoko is there with her. By the time they get there Akemi has already told Kyoko that its true that she and Godai were seen by Kozue at a love hotel. Kyoko is on the verge of tears and can't take anymore pain. She gets up to leave but Akemi stops her and tells her how childish she's been, how she never lets Godai even hold her hand yet she thinks she can be so tough with him. As she runs out, Akemi tells Godai to go after her. He does and the two of them walk and talk for a while, Kyoko tells him that she doesn't feel like she can trust him anymore when he finally tells her that she is missing the most important part, that he loves her, and that he's loved her since he first met her. Kyoko is shocked. The two separate with Kyoko going back to Maison Ikkoku while Godai goes to work. On a train in the city, Kozue runs into Yotsuya. He tells her that the whole thing with Akemi was a misunderstanding. Kozue feels awful about how things have ended with Godai and so she goes to see him at the Bunny Cabaret. There they begin to talk before Iioka reminds Godai of how unprofessional he's being. As Godai walks Kozue home she begins to cry and asks him not to hate her, Godai gets down on his knees and begins to beg her not to hate him either. Godai finally confesses that he's in love with someone else and that he should have told Kozue much sooner. Kozue smiles and sits on the ground with him, showing Yusaku her engagement ring. After the incident with Akemi she accepted her co-worker's proposal. Kozue and Godai spend then next few minutes talking about the man she will marry before Kozue gets in a cab. Right before she leaves she asks about the woman Godai loves, but decides its best not to know. The two leave each other forever, with Godai wondering exactly how he would classify Kyoko and how she makes him feel. Note: in the manga, Kyoko convinces Godai to go a love hotel with her to prove he's not lying.

Kyoko walks Soichiro and remembers Godai telling her that he's been in love with her. Back at Ikkoku the tenants tell Godai that they'll have a consolation party for him if he doesn't end up graduating. Kyoko arrives just in time to ask Godai to let her know how he did. At school Godai quickly learns that he's graduated! The rest of the day is spent trying to call Maison Ikkoku to let Kyoko know how he did. Everyone is planning a "better luck next time" party and keep missing his phone calls. Everyone at the cabaret is happy to learn that Yusaku passed, and later that night he finally gets back to Maison Ikkoku to share the good news. During the party Akemi begins to argue with Kyoko again and brings up how Godai will never be able to overcome Soichiro in Kyoko's eyes. Kyoko begins to cry and leaves and Godai tries to follow but she locks herself in her room. The next day Godai goes out job hunting and meets a single father whose wife has recently left he and his son. While Godai doesn't get that job (as it was given to that father, who needed the income), he does tell Kyoko how well it went for him and she seems proud. The two discuss her memories of Soichiro and they finally have an honest discussion of how Godai has felt all these years trying to live in Soichiro's shadow. As the snow begins to fall outside of Maison Ikkoku, Kyoko tells Godai that she'll never be able to forget her husband but that she wants to make her own way together with Yusaku. They begin to kiss and turn out the lights. The next morning Kyoko is in a particularly good mood, and is even happier when Godai calls to tell her he's gotten a job at his old workplace, the Acorn Daycare. Just as he's about to propose however, his pay phone runs out of money.

Kyoko goes to visit her sick father, and finds that he's very ill. At the Acorn Daycare Godai listen to his co-workers discussing marriage and decides he'd best begin to think about how he will propose to Kyoko. Kyoko has been wondering the same thing herself and keeps waiting and waiting for Godai to get around to asking. Her father is deadset against Kyoko getting married again and suddenly disappears from his sickbed in an attempt to do something about it. Kyoko calls Godai at the daycare to get him to look out for Mr. Chigusa should he show up, but later that night Godai is at the Bunny Cabaret and there is still no sign of him. That night just so happens to be Godai's last night at the cabaret and as he is giving the children presents that he's made for them, Mr. Chigusa arrives and promptly passes out. After waking up and having a few drinks with Godai's co-workers at his going-away party, Mr. Chigusa passes out drunk. As they walk back to Kyoko's parents house, Godai decides now is the time to propose to Kyoko. He asks her to marry him and she stops in her tracks and asks him to promise her just one thing; that he will outlive her. After losing Soichiro she knows she can't go through being alone again. Godai swears, and Mr. Chigusa wakes up and tells Kyoko that even if something happened she could always come back home, that she'll never be alone. Kyoko cries and hugs Godai and her father.

When he hesitates they strongly suggest in their unique way that he take her to meet his parents in Niigata. At dinner that night Yusaku mentions the idea and Kyoko says she would love to meet them. After a call to his grandmother the pair leave for the northern part of Japan the next day. Upon arriving, Godai is irritated to find that his parents' restaurant is still open. Yukari explains that it was her idea, and that Kyoko should get to know the real family in their everyday working life. The restaurant is busy which leaves little time for visiting, but Kyoko happily pitches in and serves as a waitress. Meanwhile, Yukari gives Godai her old engagement ring and tells him that she wants to loan him the money for the wedding as well. Moved by his grandmother's kindness, Kyoko is tearfully welcomed into the family.

With their wedding fast approaching Kyoko and Godai are both cleaning out their rooms in preparation for moving in together; Godai is moving into the manager's room with Kyoko (so he's tossing out things he doesn't need, while Kyoko is making room for his belongings.) Kyoko finds an old box of Soichiro's personal items and Akemi and Mrs. Ichinose share it with Godai. Kyoko is embarrassed but Godai smiles politely and admits he has never seen a picture of Kyoko's late husband before and that he looks like a very kind man. That night both Kyoko and he are thinking about Soichiro. Kyoko decides that she is going to return Soichiro's belongings to his father, and Godai begins to wonder if he can measure up to the memory of her beloved first husband. The next day, Kyoko visits Soichiro's grave to pay her final respects and finds Godai there, praying. Yusaku tells Soichiro that he hopes to have his blessing for their marriage. Kyoko is moved to tears, and the couple stand before Soichiro's graves holding hands, ready to move ahead with their new life together. No one can contain their excitement as Yusaku and Kyoko's wedding day has arrived. Everyone comes to pay their respects and to get a look at the happy couple. Kyoko is beautiful in her wedding dress, and both Mr. Chigusa and Mr. Otonashi are in tears just from looking at her.
