This sight is dedicated to the following couples:
InuYasha and Kagome - the lovable bickering couple from InuYasha. They almost always argue about something ending with Kagome saying "SIT!" ("OSWARI!") and Kagome going home, back to her own time.
Himura Kenshin and Kamiya Kaoru - The humorous, yet adorable couple from Rurouni Kenshin and Samurai X.
Miroku and Sango - The "secretly-want-to-be-a-couple" couple from InuYasha. Their relationship hardly goes anywhere because of their shyness and also Miroku's bad habbit of gropping other women's, including Sango's, backsides.
Ranma and Akane One of the couples from Ranma 1/2.
Tuxedo Mask (Darien) and Sailor Moon (Serena) - All of which are the same person. The couple from Sailor Moon.
Amon and Robin - Little is known about the two after episode 26 of the series Witch Hunter Robin. There are many signs in the series suggesting they might have strong feelings towards one another.
Dominic Deegan and Luna Travonia - The cute couple from the webcomic Dominic Deegan - Oracle for Hire
Tsukasa and Subaru (In the game.) - The adorable couple in the "The World" of .hack//SIGN.
Lina and Gourry The Sorceress and the Swordsman from Slayers. She's the brain; he's the brawn. Together they're nearly unbeatable. That is if Lina stops beating Gourry long enough to admit she likes him.
Vash and Meryl The adorable couple from Trigun. We have a feeling they like each other, but never find out if they get together or not.
Wolfwood and Millie Another adorable couple from Trigun. He pulls the moves, she doesn't care. How sweet?
Kei Kusanagi and Miss Kazami An adorable couple from Onagi Teacher whom are forced to pretend they are married to protect Miss Kazami's secret, but they grow to love one another.
Ed Elric and Winry He's a short State Alchemist, she's an automail mechanic, but you can tell they like each other.
Any other anime couples, including alternate couples are welcome as well.
Tamahome and Miaka - A girl from the real world and a boy from the world of a magical book. Love brought these two together.

Club of the Month
- They are our 100th affiliate and a club dedicated to the cute InuYasha couple of InuYasha's mother and father.

I got the InuYasha/Kagome and Sango/Miroku pictures for my icon from here . There are some really nice InuYasha pictures there. Check it out sometime.

The club has received numerous comments about the spelling of our club's name. Yes, I am aware that it is spelled "Aishiteru", but did not know at the time I created the club. =Ashiteru1984

News:

Announcements:
With the updating of the club will be a new feature, a journal dedicated to listing different anime couples, so if you don't see your favorite listed in our Couples We Support journal, note the club with your suggestion and a brief description of their relationship. If there are more than one suggestions of the same couple, I will choose which one to post or possibly combine them.

Since one of our admins has resigned, I am looking for one or two more people to replace her. If you are interested, please note me at my account (=Ashiteru1984). Hope to see a lot of people interested in keeping this club running.

After our Holiday Card Project contest is finished we will be bringing back our "No Dogs Allowed" contest, where you can drawn any anime couple except InuYasha/Kagome, Sango/Miroku, and a new one this time around, no Kenshin/Kaoru. We want some more variety than the typical favorites, which we still love by the way. We just want to see the other couples shine for a change. So start thinking of ideas.
