The anime series "Heart" is about Kazumi, who had a heart failure when she was only 5 years old. At that same time, Shinji, a 15 year old, was hit and killed by a car. His heart, was donated to Kazumi. Kazumi and her 3 brothers had lived with their uncle after their parents were killed in a plane crash only days before Kazumi's heart failure. But after Toshi turned 20, with his siblings, he left their uncles' place, who himself did not have a good income. It was when Kazumi turned 15 that flashbacks of memories she never had before began...
