Love Hina (ラブ ひな, Rabu Hina) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Ken Akamatsu. It was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Magazine by Kodansha from October 21, 1998 through October 31, 2001 and was published in 14 tankōbon volumes by Kodansha. The series details the daily life of Keitaro Urashima as he attempts to find the girl he made a childhood promise to and enter Tokyo University. The manga is licensed for an English language release in North America and the United Kingdom by Tokyopop, in Australia by Madman Entertainment and in Singapore by Chuang Yi. Two novelizations of Love Hina, written by two anime series screenwriters, were also released in Japan by Kodansha. Both novels were later released in North America and the United Kingdom by Tokyopop.

A twenty-four episode anime adaptation of the anime series, produced by Xebec, aired in Japan from April 19, 2000 to September 27, 2000. It was followed by a bonus DVD episode, a Christmas and a Spring television special, and a three episode original video animation (OVA) entitled Love Hina Again. The anime series, special, and OVA were licensed for release in North America by Bandai Entertainment. In July 2007, the license was acquired by Funimation Entertainment, who released a boxset of the TV series in February 2009. The series is also licensed in Australia by Madman Entertainment and in the United Kingdom by MVM Films.

The series has proved popular around the world, both commercially and critically. The manga sold over 6 million copies in Japan, and the English release has been reprinted many times. Both the anime and manga received several industry awards in Japan and North America.

Plot

Main article: List of Love Hina characters

The story is a shōnen comedy that takes place in the Kanagawa Prefecture, and centers on Keitaro Urashima, in his attempts to fulfill a childhood promise that he made with a girl to enter Tokyo University together. However, he has forgotten the name of the girl and hopes to be accepted into Tokyo university in order to find her. Although he has already failed the entrance exam twice, he becomes manager of the family owned Hinata House (日向荘, Hinata Sō, also known as Hinata Apartments) which is now an all girls dorm, and must balance his new responsibilities with his attempts to pass the university entrance exam and find the girl he made the promise with. At Hinata House, Keitaro meets Naru Narusegawa, who is also studying to enter Tokyo university. Naru ranked first in the whole of Japan on the practice exams, and Keitaro convinces her to help him study. Keitaro accidentally reads a small section of Naru's diary and as the two grow closer through their studies, Keitaro becomes increasingly convinced that Naru may be the girl he made the promise with. On the second day of the Tokyo University exam, Keitaro asks Naru about the promise and is stunned when she tells him he is mistaken. Despite their studying, and Naru's mock exam results, they both fail the exams. The pair then have an argument and independently run off to Kyoto to clear their heads. While on their trip they settle their differences and meet Mutsumi Otohime, who lives in Okinawa and is also studying for the Tokyo University exams.

After a break following the trip, Keitaro and Naru decide to retake the exams. Eventually Mutsumi moves to Tokyo, and the three study together. During this period, Naru becomes convinced that Mutsumi is Keitaro's promise girl, but Mutsumi states that she made a promise with Naru, not Keitaro. During the Tokyo University exams, Keitaro believes he has failed them once again and runs away before finding out his results. Naru chases after him, and the rest of the residents of Hinata House eventually chase after them and tell them that they all passed. However, at the opening ceremony, Keitaro has an accident and is unable to attend the University. As Keitaro had missed three months of university, he chooses to study overseas with Seta. As Keitaro leaves, Naru finally confesses her true feelings to him at the airport and decides to wait for him to return.

When Keitaro returns, He and Naru finally begin to express their feelings for each other. After they deal with new obstacles, Grandma Hina returns to Hinata House and reveals Naru is the girl of Keitaro's promise. Three years later, a Wedding Ceremony is held at Hinata House for Naru and Keitaro as they finally fulfill their promise to each other.

Differences in Anime adaption

After Mutsumi moves to Tokyo, Naru's sister Mei arrives at Hinata House to try and take Naru back home. To achieve this, she attempts to set Keitaro and Mutsumi up as a couple. As Mei tries to convince Naru to return home, they discover an old photo showing Naru, Mutsumi and Keitaro playing together as Children, which causes Naru to believe that Mutsumi is Keitaro's promise girl. Grandma Hina returns to Hinata House to renovate the building, and Keitaro is called back home by his parents, unsure if he will remain landlord of Hinata House. The residents of Hinata House must move out temporarily while the renovation takes place, and so Naru returns Home. Naru arrives at Mutsumi's apartment to show her the childhood photo, and walks in on Mutsumi and Keitaro in a compromising position. Naru kisses Keitaro and runs off, dropping the photo. Grandma Hina later announces she is leaving Hinata House in Keitaro's care, and the residents return after the renovation is complete. Eventually it's decided that no one is sure who the promise girl is, and Keitaro convinces Naru to return to Hinata House.

At Christmas, Keitaro hears a rumour that confessing your love to someone before midnight on Christmas Eve will lead to that person loving you forever. Inspired by this, Keitaro works a part time job in order to buy a present for Naru, but injures his ankle. After professing his feelings to Naru, she runs off suddenly. Eventually the two try to meet up with each other, but due to his injury slowing him down, he is unable to reach her before midnight. With time running out, Naru takes advantage of a Tv Camera Crew to share her real feelings to Keitaro over the local big screen Tv's. Despite confessing their feelings to each other, their relationship does not advance, with Naru quick to downplay her public confession to the female residents of Hinata House.

Production

Initial sketches for the series were created between September and December 1997, after A.I. Love You was completed.[1][2] Early storyboards with early character designs were created between December 1997 and January 1998, and further character designs and location sketches followed between January and April 1998.[3][4] The last storyboards before serialization were created between April and August 1998.[5][6]

Around six months before the start of serialization, character designs were still going through several revisions before being settled upon, with several characters undergoing complete redesigns and name changes.[7] For example, the character Naru was named Midori, and she was supposed to fall through a hole in the floor naked, bump her head on Keitaro and lose her memory. This scenario was changed to happen to Mutsumi. Naru's name was changed many times before the author settled on Naru Narusegawa, and her final design is similar to Saati Namba from A.I. Love You.[8][9] Kitsune's money-grubbing nature and her older, jaded, and more mature personality were originally slated to be used for Kaolla Su.[10] Shinobu Maehara's nature was settled on from the beginning of the series, however her physical appearance and age was extensively redesigned as the series concept was shaped. In her early design, Shinobu had a similar appearance to Forty Namba from A.I. Love You.[11][12]

Throughout the run of the manga, the series used digital editing processes. After a rough sketch of a page was created, the page layout and basic detail were drawn and scanned into an Apple Macintosh. The major page elements were then shaded or filled with patterns, and elements that were drawn separately were added digitally to the page.[13] The series also used a series of "banked images", which were basic line drawings of locations (such as a characters room). Instead of redrawing a location from scratch every time it was used, these banked images could be used as a base, and extra detail added to them depending on the requirements for the scene. Both of these techniques lead to characters having white outlines when copied digitally onto the scene.[14] Parts of Hinata Inn and other locations used were inspired by real life locations and designed from photographs collected during research.[15][16]

Media

Manga

Main article: List of Love Hina chapters

The 118 individual chapters of Love Hina were originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Magazine, premiering in the October 21, 1998 issue and running weekly until its conclusion in the October 31, 2001 issue. The chapters were collected and published in 14 tankōbon volumes by Kodansha.[17] The first 11 volumes sold over 6 million copies in Japan.[18] The manga was also later released in a partially colored format known as "Iro Hina version" (literally "Color Hina version") at an increased price.[19]

The series is licensed for an English language release in North America and the United Kingdom by Tokyopop, which released the 14 volumes between May 7, 2002 and September 16, 2003.[20][21] It is also licensed for an English language release in Singapore by Chuang Yi and for regional language releases in France and Québec by Pika Édition, in Spain by Glénat, in Singapore by Chuang Yi, in Brazil by Editora JBC, in Mexico by Grupo Editorial Vid, in Poland by Waneko, in Greece by Compupress, in Germany in German, and in Sweden and Norway by Egmont Manga & Anime.

Kodansha had also published a bilingual (English and Japanese) edition under the Kodansha Bilingual Comics label, with English texts translated by Giles Murray. Eight volumes were produced under the bilingual format.[22] The bilingual series was later from sale after the licensing of the series by Tokyopop [23]

Tokyopop's English release was one of their first releases of the "Authentic Manga" lineup of titles that use the Japanese style of reading from right to left. By using this style of printing, the artwork is unchanged from the original. [24] Love Hina has appeared consistently in Tokyopop's top five selling manga and have been reprinted several times. [25]

[34][35] In the United Kingdom, the series is licensed by MVM Films, who released the series on six DVDs between September 6, 2004 and March 7, 2005. In Australia and New Zealand the series is licensed by Madman Entertainment, who also released the series across six DVDs between September 18, 2002, and February 11, 2003.

A solo version was used for the first episode, and a duet with Yuji Ueda was used for the third episode. [45][46]. The North American and United Kingdom releases of Love Hina Again grouped the 3 parts together on one disc and were released on September 2, 2003 and January 8, 2008 respectively.[47][48]

After the end of the TV series, Love Hina Final Selection was released, containing a summary of the series and the Tokyo Bay performance of "Love Live Hina", a live concert including all of the main cast members.[49]

The anime was later used as the source for a films comic, Love Hina Anime Comics, which told the anime story in comic form using stills from the show as the comic panels.[50] The anime Comics series follows the story of the TV series, unaired 25th episode, and the Xmas and Spring specials and each volume contains 3 exclusive trading cards.[51][52][53] The film comics also contain anime production info.[54]

Reception

Love Hina won the Kodansha Manga Award for best shōnen title in 2001.[88] It was selected as the "Best Manga, USA Release" at both the 2002 and 2004 Anime Expo conventions.[89][90] In 2003, the title was among the top ten graphic novels on Nielsen BookScan's list and one of the first graphic novels to ever appear in the general trade paperback list.[91] ICv2 voted Love Hina "Anime Product of the Year" in 2002. [92]

The series was well received by critics. Tony Chen, of Anime News Network (ANN), found it to be a funny series, though inappropriate for readers under 16 due to the number of jokes involving sexual innuendo. He praised the beautiful artwork, feeling the "sexy and cute" female designs were perfect for the series and that Keitaro's design fit his dorky personality. Chen found Naru's regularly catching Keitaro making a mistake and calling him a pervert redundant and annoying.[93]

ANN's Bamboo Dong praised the anime adaptation for being very intriguing and mixing "drama, romance, and slapstick comedy in a pleasing combination". She found the music "incredibly cute" and felt it was used in a way which contributed to many of the dramatic effects in the anime.[94] In The Anime Encyclopedia: A Guide to Japanese Animation Since 1917, Jonathan Clements and Helen McCarthy felt the female characters were a "standard rack of female anime archetypes" and that the series as a whole was a "culmination of a decade of geek-centered anime".[95] Chris Beveridge, of AnimeOnDVD.com, noted the first anime DVD volume was "really well put together", but also felt the manga did not translate into an anime series particularly well.[96][97] He praised the Christmas special, noting that it was "several notches above the TV series" but found that while the Spring Special had amusing moments, it was rushed with bad plotting.[30][98]

The Love Hina Again OVA received more mixed reviews, with ANN's Zac Berthschy feeling it reversed part of the plot of the main anime series and never reached the same entertainment level as the television series. The character of Kanako, Keitaro's sister, was heavily criticized for being "one of the most annoying characters ever created even though she would have been better for Keitaro than Naru."[99] Beveridge praised the fun and comedy as well as the fan service, but also noted that ones enjoyment would depend on whether they still cared for the characters.[100]
