Synopsis

Keitaro has had great difficulty getting into the university of his choice and no luck in meeting women. In a desperate effort to go into seclusion and study for his entrance exams, he volunteers to take over running his grandmother's hotel. His plans are ruined when he discovers that the "hotel" is actually an all-girls dormitory ... and some serious distractions ensue. (Source: Tokyopop)

I love this manga. It was my first read and is still at the top of my list. The artwork lent itself well to anime translation and the writing is outstanding. I really found myself wanting to learn more and more about each of the characters all the way down to the bit-players.

Despite the violence inherent in their relationship, you can see very early on just how much Keitaro and Naru care for one another. Oh, come on...don't tell me you couldn't tell just looking at the covers! I could tell you the end and it'd still be worth reading. Don't worry, I won't...just sayin'.

Typically manga tends to develop much more lengthy plots, which at times can seem redundant and filler-ish. Love Hina is certainly no different. The characters often find themselves out of Tokyo on strange side story arcs. Many of those side arcs-for those of you who watched the anime-were made into specials, or completely ignored. Now, while I am not writing a review on the anime, I can almost guarantee you that these side story arcs are much more lengthy and definitely more enjoyable in the manga. So, while some of the arcs do seem like fillers, at times, they more funny than the actual plot. read more

Both are created by Akamatsu Ken. Negima and Love Hina both start off with the harem phase but Negima quickly turns into something else while still maintaining that Love Hina feel. Some characters look strikingly similar to each other as well.
Same "Boy living in Girls' Dorm" scenario. You won't be disappointed if you liked the other one as well.
