''Neighborhood Story'' (ご近所物語 ''Gokinjo Monogatari'') is a seven-volume SliceOfLife manga by Creator/AiYazawa that ran in Shueisha's ''Magazine/{{Ribon}}'' magazine from 1995 to 1998. It tells the story of Mikako Koda, a teenager who dreams of becoming a fashion designer, her childhood friend Tsutomu Yamaguchi, and their other friends, all of them students of the Yazawa Arts High School. Creator/ToeiAnimation would produce a 50-episode anime adaptation that would air on Creator/TVAsahi, comprising much of the staff of ''Manga/MarmaladeBoy'''s anime adaptation, which led to the production of a short feature film, and a CD-drama.
Several characters have appearances in ''Manga/ParadiseKiss'', which despite being its own story, has been confirmed to be a part of the [[SharedUniverse same universe]].
After 28 years, it was released in the US by Creator/VizMedia in 2023 under the company's Shojo Beat imprint.
