'Did you hear? It's said that if two people in love go to Toudai...they'll find 'happiness'.'
'If it really works...let's go to Toudai together, okay...'
'When we grow up, we'll definately meet at Toudai again!'
'I'ts a promise!'

15 years later, Urashima Keitarou stands before the steps of Hinata Sou...a mere walk away from the park the promise was made...on his way to Toudai (Tokyo University) . All very romantic...until you find out that he's forgotten the name of his destined girlfriend! >.< *sigh* Boys. *ahem* Anyways, let's just say that getting to Toudai will not be as easy as promising so. Brain melting exams, flying sea turtles, constant parties...and a dorm full of beautiful girls. What is there in that not to tempt a guy from his promise? Will Keitarou meet his love again at Toudai...or will Naru, Mitsune, Suu, Motoko, Shinobu or Mutsumi capture his heart beforehand?

In a nutshell, Love Hina is a shounen take on a love story. To me a combonation of Ah Megami-sama, Golden Boy and a dating simulation game...all in one. Minus the magic and part times jobs of course. ^.^; If you like any of the above, or love triangle stories like that of Video Girl Ai, Maison Ikkouku, Ranma ½ and DNA², this is definately one anime/manga series not to pass up.
