Izumi Matsumoto (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimagure_Orange_Road), 1984 – 1987
Shōnen, School Days

Synopsis: Kyōsuke (a Junior high school student) is constantly on the move. He and his family (Father and two younger sisters) keep moving from city to city, forcing him to switch school every time. Soon after moving to his seventh city, he meets a young sweet girl while jogging and falls in love with her. Then, on his first day at school, he finds out that she is a delinquent with a terrible reputation, and has a completely reverse personality from the one that she had when they first met. She's the leader of a small gang at the school, consisting of another similar misbehaving girl. This is a story of their love triangle.

His family is a family of espers - they have supernatural powers that they use to their advantage. Adds a twist to the popular love triangle story

My Take: Nice and sweet. Everyone should read it :)
