Princess Ai Monogatari

Ai is a young woman who wakes up with no memories besides her name and the vague notion that she is a princess from another world. In her confusion, she stumbles about the streets of Shinjuku until she encounters a young man named Kent. She is immediately charmed by his kindness, and eventually ends up accepting his offer of shelter. As Ai tries to piece together her forgotten origins, it becomes clear that she possesses a passion for music and a singing voice that captivates those around her. But enemies from Ai's former home are in pursuit of her, and she must hurry to understand her role in an otherworldly conflict she cannot even remember.

Princess Ai Monogatari was created and co-written by American musician and singer Courtney Love and Stuart Levy, the founder of North American publisher and licensor Tokyopop. Mangaka Ai Yazawa provided character designs. The series is a loose adaptation of Courtney Love's life story.

The series was published in English as Princess Ai by Tokyopop from July 6, 2004, to February 6, 2006. A sequel titled Princess Ai: The Prism of Midnight Dawn has been published since December 9, 2008.
