: Otonashi Kyoko
:       Manager of Maison Ikkoku.  "Maison" implies a mansion or elegant
: house.  In reality, Ikkoku-kan (-apartments) is a run-down building always
: on the verge of falling apart, especially one particular hole between
: Yotsuya's and Godai's room, and sometimes another hole between Godai's
: room and Akemi's room.  Kyoko is a young widow.  Her former husband was
: named Souichiro.  He left her a mangy white dog which she renamed
: Souichiro.

The dog was named thus, even when her husband was still alive.

Nope, when her husband died, she renamed the dog to Souichiro so that the
memory of her husband would live on.  She loved her husband so much, that
renaming the dog to his name was a way, if only slight, to keep him from
dying.

Ack, second time's the charm.  Mihoshi meant to send this to FFML, and
instead sent it to one person.  Mihoshi's bad. ^^;
