Time Stranger Kyoko (Japanese: 時空異邦人KYOKO, Hepburn: Taimu Sutorenjā Kyōko) is a manga series written and illustrated by Arina Tanemura.

An eleven-minute-long original video animation (OVA) based on the manga series, Time Stranger Kyoko: Leave it to Chocola, was released in Japan in 2001 at Shueisha's Ribon Festival.

Princess Kyoko Suomi is protected by the last remaining members of the Dragon clan: the princes Hizuki and his younger brother Sakataki.

She decides to accept her fate and her duties as the princess, but her father offers her the chance to return to the life she prefers if she can awaken her twin sister, Ui.

To do this, Kyoko must find the Strangers, twelve telepaths who each hold a holy stone that enables their owners to use specific powers.

They are able to find the ten of the remaining strangers quickly, and along the way Kyoko comes to appreciate her position as a princess and decides she will continue to be one even after Ui awakens.

He gives Sakataki the only sword capable of killing him, then forces him into a duel wanting to die, but Kyoko stops it and yells at him.

Kyoko accepts being this and agrees to fulfill her duties, but she cannot forget Sakataki and runs to where he is and confesses her love to him, though he cannot see or hear her.

Realizing how much they love one another, Chronos allows Kyoko to return to the human world after absorbing some of her powers to enable himself to continue ruling.

In January 2008, Viz Media acquired licensing rights to publish the manga in English for North American distribution under their Shojo Beat imprint.
