Based on one of Japan's most popular and influential games, the To Heart franchise spans several media, including visual novels for the PC, PlayStation and PlayStation 2, plus anime, manga and radio-style drama adaptations. The original To Heart anime has been a fan favorite since its 1999 Japanese television debut.
