きまぐれオレンジ☆ロード
"Kimagure Orange Road" was commissioned by "Weekly Shōnen Jump" after rejecting Matsumoto's work "Spring Wonder". Several short manga that were precursors to "Kimagure Orange Road" were created prior and later published in a collection called "Graffiti". Matsumoto later stated that "Kimagure Orange Road" was the first series to combine elements of science fiction and romantic comedy together.
