The overall story centers around [[Akari Kamigishi]]'s blossoming relationship with the protagonist Hiroyuki. Six short [[Omake|bonus]] broadcasts were produced and aired after selected episodes.

Three pieces of theme music were used for the episode; one opening theme and two ending themes. The opening theme is "Feeling Heart" by Masami Nakatsukasa; the first ending theme is "Yell" by [[Ayako Kawasumi]], and the second ending theme is "Access" by Spy. Different ending themes were used depending on the location of the broadcast. The DVD and VHS releases used "Yell" as the ending theme. A set of six DVDs, videotapes and laserdiscs were sold in Japan for the ''To Heart'' anime. |

A [[sequel]] anime series entitled ''To Heart: Remember My Memories'' is set a year after the conclusion of the first anime and completes the anime's storyline (deviating from the visual novel). The future of Akari, Hiroyuki, and Multi are also shown. In ''To Heart: Remember My Memories'', characters' hair color changed, for example Hiroyuki's hair, which turned from a dark brown to a greenish blue. The Himeyuri twins from ''[[To Heart 2]]'' make their debut appearances in ''To Heart: Remember My Memories'' as speaking cameos. The anime, which was produced by [[Anime International Company|AIC]] and [[Oriental Light and Magic]], and directed by Keitaro Motonaga, aired in Japan between October 2 and December 25, 2004 compiling thirteen episodes. The episodes were released on seven DVD compilation volumes in Japan. Seven short omake episodes titled ''Heart Fighters'' were released with the consumer DVD versions of ''To Heart: Remember My Memories''; they are not available on rental DVDs. Unlike the bonus shorts of the first season, the characters are not drawn super deformed and there is an overall arching mini-story. The humor comes from its parodies of popular Japanese culture. Two pieces of theme music were used for the episodes; one opening theme and one ending theme. The opening theme is {{Nihongo|"Daisuki da yo|大好きだよ}} (Into Your Heart)" by Naomi Tanisaki, and the ending theme is {{Nihongo|"Sorezore no Mirai e"|それぞれの未来へ}} by Haruna Ikeda. |
