Love Hina

Description

When Keitaro Urashima fails his entrance exams to get into Tokyo University for the second time, he's officially an unemployed and uneducated slacker. To make things worse, his parents have kicked him out of his house. Fortunately, his grandmother owns the fabulous Hinata Lodge and has agreed to take Keitaro in as caretaker. What he doesn't know is that the lodge is actually a girl's dorm and he's the only guy around! Most guys would kill to live with five sexy ladies, but if Keitaro's not careful, this job will kill him. (From Kodansha USA)

Really great

Well, The first part is good because the y tries to get into Todai, and for someone like Keitaro it's something quite epic to do. The second one is more centered on the romantic development, where Keitarou is more concentrated on getting the girl he loves and develop a "normal" relationship. Well, I must say that it's the best work of this genre that I have ever read

If you haven't read any manga before, I guess this can be worth a read. But even so, it really starts to become a drag to plow through after the first couple of volumes. An abundance of useless dialogue, completely killing off any fun that one can get out of it.
It was the first real manga that I read, but since then I've read SO many better ones. Good for people still fawning over panty-shots, and that don't really care about a coherent story.

If he just stuck with 6 volumes at most it would have been a funny manga no more no less that would deserve a 6 or 7 I guess...
But he kept on adding pointless and repetitive situations which simply killed his work. He drowned it himself... When it comes to shounen romance, Katsura is way better... Just my own thinking though.

well the name speak for itself the first hald and mostly the beginning are awfully boring... the stuff that happen is already irratating and become annoying. you get my drift..naked + Keitaro = bloody punch/slash/kick/duel hit from any name from before..... well it get really good when you see the opposite fall for him... so we do get new and fresh ideas of enjoyment... its really good in the 2nd half but still have the corny stuff SO I WILL SAY THIS ONLY ONCE... if you don't have patience GET LOST before you say bad stuff about it

Possibly one of the best love stories in manga, if you're into any of the genres this is listed under, especially Romance, you need to read this.

I loved this manga. The ending was really beautiful, and there was really some powerful scenes over all the ecchi and comedy.

One of the BEST

Love Hina was one of the first manga I've ever read and the only one which was able to make me forget about the time completely. I was so into the story that when I started reading for the first time, I couldn't stop until i finished it which took like 24hrs without me realizing. Truly amazing. Although the storyline may not be fascinating or too appealing, its blend of romance and humor will surely be able to capture your heart.

Very good manga! For those that are new to the harem mangas, this one is a perfect start! If you loved Love Hina you may want to read Ai Yori Aoshi and then perharps Oh! My Goddess?!

It not the best out there but it alright. The story line was good and I like the charectors. But when you start reading the manga. The charector look too young for there age. But when it get to the end of the story. They do look like there age. The other down side is some part they try to be funny, but it not. Now everything else is just find. I can't give it real high score. So it get a 7. Please don't get mad.
