Making a manga is like making a cake... you just need the recipe. But to make a great one, you need your own secret ingredients! Comparing these two harem manga, you see many similarities: Both start with a promisse... then come the girls, so you can choose your style...
Narusegawa = Chitoge = explosive girl
Shinobu = Onodera = cute girl
Motoko = Tsugumi = fighter girl discovering her feelings
Kitsune = Tachibana = smart girl xD
They have many similar girls, but each of them are unique in their own way! Wich make both great mangas! =))

Both premises are similar, a young boy made a promise to a young girl that they would get together when they grew up, but end up forgetting how she looked like.
But both are made in very different ways. Yet, if you like one, you should definitely check the other, since they are one of the best in their genre.

Similar plot with promises in childhood, with lots of misunderstandings 

reportRecommended by Silgrond

Unrequited love and an old promise that a boy want's to keep no matter how diffecult it may seem. Both of these stories center around these themes. Add a lot of funny situations, good humour and scenes that aren't what they seem to ther people. If you like these kind of stories you should try these manga out. 

reportRecommended by Darkbow

Both develops the same feeling when reading, with lots of fun and misunderstandings, both have a childhood promise between the main characters, and have another harem similarities.  

reportRecommended by Yoshiron

If you enjoy Love Hina and you want something similar and even better than Nisekoi is the best choice I can recommend. Both mangas are very similar with some small differences. If you enjoyed the idea of Keitaro making a promise with a girl from his past that he and the promised girl will someday be with each other in the future then you'll like Nisekoi even more since it expands on the idea and focuses more on it than Love Hina does.  Whenever the main character or love interest tries to confess or anything related to this story tries to get revealed, it usually ends up getting interrupted by something and postponed to a later event. Nisekoi does do this but not as much as Love Hina. Another thing you will like if you liked Love Hina is the cast of characters but even more. Overall both mangas have enjoyable characters, good art styles, and a similar story structure.  read more

Although the setups are different, both explore the same harem premise with a promise of marriage from the past. The use and type of comedy used in both series are very similar. 

reportRecommended by zxntle

Both romcom/harem where MC made a promise to a girl in the past. In the present, multiple girls appear on their life so they''ll need to figure who is the promised girl.

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.

The 2 most popular Ken Akamatsu’s works. Typical harem setting, comedy, ecchi, randomness. In both manga the protagonist is a megane guy loved by most of the female cast, and in both manga the female main character is a brown-haired tsundere. The only difference is that Negima! has magic. 

reportRecommended by RenaPsychoKiller

They both harems.They're kinda ecchi at the same time.They were both written by the same author and they're really funny and well written and drawn. Love Hina has a hopeless guy trying to find his childhood girl and Negima is a young wizard looking for his father when he meets a whole bunch of girls and goes through crazy adventure. 

reportRecommended by Stopurcryin

Same author. Lot of the same elements. And actually, a lot of the characters in this series were based on characters from Love Hina. This has a lot more action, seeing as the main character is a wizard. 

reportRecommended by manami-chan669

If you liked Love Hina you will love Negima. Why? you ask. First the author is the same, so the story line is similar, there are similarities between them, the fact that a boy is stuck not to 5 or 6, but to 30 girls now. 

reportRecommended by advancedbr

For starters, they're by the same author. They both have heave romance /  comedy elements, as well as being harems with lots of ecchi. The characters also have a lot of similarities. Negima is pretty much Love Hina with a some typical shounen elements, like adventure and action, and a much larger cast of characters. 

reportRecommended by HalibelTheEspada

Your a young guy at an age where girls become 'interesting' and they suddenly drop you in an environment with only girls. Lots of funny situations, love stories and hate/love relations. Both main characters get involved in a lot of situations that aren't what they seem to others. This ofcourse make for veru funny situations. The humour in both manga is very similar.  

reportRecommended by Darkbow

They are both done by the same author
They can both be labeled as Harem
They are both Echhi at times
The overall plot is curvy at times, but tends to stay with one thing. (unlike other manga in the genres these are in)

Ai Kora addpermalink

Both protagonists are in essentially identical situations, where the main character are nearly clones of their counterparts in the series. They have the same behaviour, reactions, and similar appearance to the character(s) in the other series. Love Hina is probably more ecchi, but that's not saying Ai Kora isn't ecchi at all.

Both revolve around male protagonists who begin living amongst a number of female characters; most of which become romantically attracted to him in one shape or another. As such, romance and comedy are emphasised in both titles.

While Keitaro is often accused of being a pervert due to clumsy accidents and bad luck, Hachibei is the exact opposite: he's a bona fide pervert. This "Parts-lover" ends up, like Keitaro, at a girl's dormitory, with each of the girls there possessing one of his ideal parts. Hilarity ensues. 

reportRecommended by Paki

both are romantic comedies (abit ecchi) with the main character living together with females in a Harem situation. Though Love Hina is more romantic while Ai Kora abit on the ecchi side  

reportRecommended by xhokorix

Both are the generic harem scenario where there is a guy surrounded by many cute girls. In Love Hina, it is more of a romance than Ai Kora (Love Collage). While Ai Kora has a more innocence sense to it. how Hachibe does everything he can to make the girls that he likes be happy. They both have this somewhat tranquility sense to it but both are great series with great unexpected endings.  

reportRecommended by zaharat

A boy starts living in a dorm that consists of only GIRLS! Both series begin with the boy characters are misunderstood by the girls in the beginning that they're leeching perverts (although there is a slight difference, in Ai Kora the boy actually is a pervert but in Love Hina he isn't). Gradually over time both boys and girls in each series start developing feelings for one another and both go through a series of hilarious, heartwarming events and scenerios. If you love one, I can guarantee you'll love the other.

Its 2 guys living in a girl's dorm.
Its both harem
The girls have similarities
Action scenes are both extremely exagerated

Though, the art styleis completely different. 
Ai Kora have a lot of chapters that dont advance the plot. 

reportRecommended by Riukanojutsu

Basically the same setup and has a very damn similar plot.With the MC moving into a girls lodge and shenanigans ensuing.
One difference maybe in the fact that ai kora MC is a literal badass at times.

For the harem fan who doesn't easily get deterred by redundancy... Boy meets girl, boy likes girl... 3-5 more girls enter the picture... despite his loser status, he sure does become popular... things get complicated as more and more girls fall for him... and him for them. They show their love by beating his ass. We are all amused.

To LOVE-Ru addpermalink

They share the same type of main character: a shy, wimp male protagonist surrounded by beautiful girls, often victim of misunderstandings and thus beaten up after involuntary embarassing situations. Eventually, he also starts to get the affection of those girls thanks to his kindness and goodwill. Besides, he is irresolute with his feelings in love triangles, a situation that easily leads to comedy and funny situations in both mangas. The main differences are that To LOVE-Ru is also heavy ecchi, with a lot of nudes and fanservice, as well as full harem without settling relationships, while Love Hina quickly develops into a romantic triangle.

Boy lives with a group of girls under one roof. Girls all misunderstand him and think he's a pervert.

Kodomo no Jikan addpermalink

Weird connection but, aoki and keitaro are the same character just an age difference. I feel that people don't like Kodomo no Jikan for the under-age love, but honestly I laughed much more then cringed through out the series. The second connection is that they are both romantic comedies, love hina though being more "romantic".

Nagi-chan no Yuuutsu addpermalink

Although Co-Ed is a hentai and Love Hina is more of a ..."not hentai" anime, what holds these two series strongly in similarity is the power of two inter-connecting relationships between two people. (also the bathing motif is strong in both)

For people who've already read Love Hina, think of Co-ED as a more perverted two couple episodic story between only Keitaro and Naru (or maybe replace Naru with Kitsune...or cosplay a male Kitsune who's enslaving Shinobu...) but reverse the gender roles and reduce the beat ups and you get the feel of Co-ED Sexxtasy although the dated artwork and bondage scenes might turn off those seeking a more ecchi H-manga but the scenes themselves have a hard time of completely devolving into hardcore because of the relationship between the two lovers. read more

Guy likes girl. Girl likes guy. Should be simple, but it's not. There are so many different kinds of obstacles that keep the two apart, with the majority of them being crazy misunderstandings. There's a lot of romantic drama in both, to the point it will make you want to pull your hair out as to why the pair hasn't gotten together yet. They're frustrating, but they keep you hooked.
