Romantic Reunion with a case of Mistaken Identity

I was wondering if there were some good examples of anime/manga that combined a romantic reunion and mistaken identity.
By romantic reunion I mean that two people knew each other, and loved each other, but haven't seen each other in years only to meet again. One of the most common cases here are ones where two children promise to marry or something when they grow up, but that's not always the case.
Mistaken Identity fits very well with this. The setup is, a person's looking for someone; the person finds someone; the someone turns out to actually be someone else. This fits quite well here, since the pair haven't seen each other in a long time.
Love Hina plays with this a bit, but not in full, since so much time has passed that no one's entirely certain who was who then, so it's left as a partial mystery. The fairy tale The Little Mermaid takes mistaken identity to a tragic end, with the man falling for the girl who found him thinking she's the girl who saved him.
I only know one work that does this in full; it's a hentai series called Futari no Aniyome.
Spoiler:


There's plenty of stories where two people who once knew each other meet again, both treasuring the love they'd had. It's not hard to imagine a character being mistaken for someone else after so much time, and this can make for some interesting conflicts on all sides. Are there any other works where this sort of thing happens? Can be hentai, but would prefer something longer and more elaborate to develop the story.
