Manga has contributed many great anime series to the anime genre. Love Hina is one of their many contributions to the anime genre. This series was written and illustrated by Ken Akamatsu. This series was originally a comic and was first shown in the Weekly Shonen Magazine in October of 1998. The series was based around the daily life and adventures of a character named Keitaro Urashima. The character attempts to find a certain girl to whom he made a childhood promise to. The character is also on his way to enter Tokyo University.
The anime adaptation of this series was produced by Xebec and first aired in Japan from April of 2000 to September of 2000. After the series was completely aired, there was a bonus DVD follow up with two special episodes. The follow up also includes a three episode original video animation, which was titled Love Hina again. The series and special follow up episodes were released in North America by the Bandai Entertainment Company.
Later on, in 2007, Funimation Entertainment obtained the license to the series as well. There are also two novels that were based on Love Hina and these novels were written by two of the anime series screenwriters. These novels were first released in Japan. These novels have now been released in North America as well. The novels are a shonen comedy that are centered in the Kanagawa Prefecture. The novels are based on the lead character, Keitaro Urashima, as the comics were.
Major characters include Motoko, a strong swordswoman; Su, an inventor eats a lot girl from a country suspiciously like India; Shinobu, a shy Martha Stewart in training; Kitsune, a drunk slacker; Mutsumi, a silly fellow Tokyo U failure; Haruka, Keitaro s aunt; Seta, Naru s old tutor and some form of cross between James Bond and Indiana Jones; and Kanako, Keitaro s adopted sister. There are also numerous other smaller characters. Kanako used to be in the notes too, but I realized that her entire presence was one of the only issues I had with the manga of Love Hina.
The plot of this anime serious has interested many viewers since its first release in 1998. The main character, Keitaro Urashima, is searching for the girl that he made a childhood promise to, to enter Tokyo University with her. However, Keitaro has forgotten the girl’s name and is trying to find her via his acceptance into Tokyo University. The problem is that he has already failed the entrance exam two times. But, luck is on her side and she continues to reach her goals.
So, until he can pass the entrance exam, he becomes the manager of a family owned Hinata House. This set of apartments is now an all girls dorm. Of course, there is some initial controversy over Keitaro becoming the manager of these dorms. Most of the residents do not care for him, which makes his stay in Tokyo all the more complicated. Thankfully, he begins to win the girls’ trust and friendship. To find out about what happens in depth, you should check out this anime series right away.
