Kyoko-san Quitting! Ikkoku-kan's a Distant Memory?.Kyoko Retires! Ikkoku, a Distant Memory? Godai learns that Kyoko has moved out and explains the Kozue situation to the other tenants. They tell him to go get Kyoko to come back to Maison Ikkoku and tell him that they won't let him come back until Kyoko has returned. Godai goes to the Chigusa's and attempts to see Kyoko but she refuses. When he loudly shouts that everything was a mistake she rushes into the foyer and pushes him out the door, telling him that she never wants to see him again. When Godai returns to Ikkoku he finds himself locked out and attempts to climb in through Kentaro's window to get inside. Over the next five days Godai goes to see Kyoko everyday, while her father decides to take it upon himself to tell Mr. Otonashi that Kyoko will not be returning to Maison Ikkoku. Mr. Otonashi goes to Maison Ikkoku to tell the tenants the news and finds the entire building in a state of disarray. The floors are covered in garbage and the tenants begin to tell him how inconvient Kyoko's absence has been for them (as she cleans up after them all the time.) With no other choice he hires a new temporary manager: Godai! The next day he calls Kyoko to tell her the news, and upon hearing that she's been replaced she begins to have second thoughts about her impulsive decision to leave Maison Ikkoku.
