Note: I DO NOT have this game. I typed up this file as a "fan service" for the fellow Kimagure Orange Road fans out there. If any Kimagure Orange Road fan site, whether Ayukawa faction or Hiyama faction, wants to host this file, ask me.

1.1 1ST IMPRESSION
[Ramble ON]
First, I'm Ayukawa faction always (albeit a Tsundere babe like her in real life might be a self-centred, egotistic b_tch). Second, I typed up this d_mn file not because I should, but just because I could (and had the free time and will). I guess this and other retro games are available, somewhere out there, as modules (as LZH, RAR, or ZIP files) for emulators that work under Windows XP; but I'm not familiar with this aspect. f(?_?)
For comparison, I became a Kimaore fan when I read it "in real time" (week by week) when it ran in the Shuukan Shounen Jump (Weekly Shounen Jump). IIRC, other contemporary manga series that also ran in Shuukan Shounen Jump included: Black Angels, Cap Tsubasa (Captain Tsubasa), Cat's Eye, City Hunter, Hokuto no Ken, Shape Up Ran, Space Adventure Cobra, Yume Senshi Wingman, &c. OTOH, for forgotten reason, I didn't collect Shuukan Shounen Sunday (Weekly Shounen Sunday) for Urusei (Urusei Yatsura). Partly because I was a stubborn Kimaore manga fan, I boycotted the Kimaore TVA (TV Anime), not because it was unavailable to me, but because I'd a prejudice against, and was turned off by, the differences between the manga and TVA settings, such as the addition of the fat cat in the Kasuga home, and the colours of the heroines' sailor fuku. Besides, the Kimaore mangaka (comic artist) Matsumoto Izumi sensei, when without his assistants, couldn't draw for his life (all right, I'm aware of his real sickness); and the TVA writer Terada Kenji s_cked so hard he could replace gravity. OTOH, I watched the Kimaore Shuukan Shounen Jump Special (pilot) OVA (Original Video Anime) that came out before the TVA, and collected almost all the TVA CDs and CDVs; even a (black vinyl) LP and SP here or there. In the early 1990s, when I was active in various anime message areas/BBS/conferences/newsgroups in the Internet, I was annoyed when a newbie would pop up, ask what/who are everyone's favourite anime title/chara, and never pop up again; so after the thousandth time such irresponsible hit-and-run (or eat-and-run) happened, I compiled a list of the anime chara whom I loved, liked, disliked, hated, and thought worth mentioning. Whenever the next time such newbies popped up again, I posted the list, and continually updated it. To be concise, my top three favourite anime heroines (not game or manga) were and are:
Asagiri Yohko dono OVA Genmu Senki Leda: Fantastic Adventure of Yohko
Ayukawa Madoka sama TVA Kimagure Orange Road
Tokimatsuri Eve chan OVA Megazone 23
These also explain my support for Aoni Pro female CV Tsuru Hiromi sama, who voices two of these three heroines, with Miyasato Kumi chan as Tokimatsuri Eve chan's CV (chara voice). BTW, Megazone 23 is read as Megazone Two Three, not "Twenty Three". Second Lieutenant Sayla Mass of Kidou Senshi Gundam (Mobile Suit Gundam) is amongst the top ten.
