How has it aged for you? Can it be considered a classic?
Shinobu best girl
>>140766122
Terribly and no. Worst girl won and best girl was introduced too late in the series to be of any relevance.
>>140766122
It started aggressive "tsundere" bullshit, which is enough reason for me to hate it
A classic of utter shit, yes.
>Naru won
>timeskip epilogue
>all the girls still lusting after MC's dick
>new girl gets introduced to the harem
It made me realize I can never enjoy haremshit because it just makes me sad for the girls.
>has it aged well
anime yes
manga no
>Can it be considered a classic
see >>140766327
I liked the manga but hated what it influenced
>>140766225
First post best bost
>>140766309
Sure it did.
>>140768350
Akane at least had some justification of Ranma also being a tsundere bitch
with Naru it's all misunderstandings
>>140768350
Akane is classic tsundere, not modern
>>140768005
>manga yes
>anime no
I meant to post that
>>140766122
Naru a sex.
I want her to punch me.
>>140768685
That hairstyle always did it for me
It's a timeless classic.
>>140766225
The worst taste on this board, no doubt

>back-to-back best girl badasses
>>140768685
Her design in the anime was better
Can't stand the anime, but love the manga. Was one of the first that I ever read and I still re-read it every now and again.Best girl won, deal with it.
I liked the parts where Naru was not the main focus. Anything with Naru as the focus was shit. The series was enjoyable until the author got a case of the Katsuras and decided to go shounenshit. After that point the series was objectively shit dragging the corpse for 20 books.
Shinobu and Motoko were very cute though.
I absolutely loved the manga. I wish Ken would return to it. Far better than the Negima spin off shit.

>After that point the series was objectively shit dragging the corpse for 20 books.
Love Hina only has 14 volumes. I agree that the last two books didn't serve that much of a point, though, it might as well have ended after Naru's confession with a short epilogue.
>>140766122
Responding serioulsy to the question just means you're old
Kirie wins in this mango, right?
>>140769701
>back to back best girl
Sorry, I only see Motoko. Is there someone else in that photo?
>>140770463
well best girl and best tsundere-destroyer
>>140770248
It was released where I live in smaller books, splitting the series further.
>>140770515
Not even blood related, it's trash.
Literally were the other Love Hinas even trying?
>>140766309
Anon, please. Violent tsundere is a long-standing staple, I don't know why people blame Naru for starting it.
>>140770619
Shinobu was trying to make us all pedo.
Kaolla was trying to make us brownsexual (and pedo).
>>140770676
you're right.
>>140766122
Of course it's a classic. Love Hina, alongside NGE and DBZ is probably one of the most influental series in the whole industry, not to mention the hordes of people it got into the hobby in the first place.
>>140770619
Kitsune wasn't. That's what I like about her.
>>140768551
There's tsun antics pretty much all the way through, I'm not sure what you're talking about.

Keitaro is as good as you can get for a harem MC. Think about it.
> Not a beta faggot
> Knows he wants Naru's pussy
> Works hard for it and becomes so OP all the girls instantly wets (with good reasons) at the sight of him
Fucker had a hard life, worked through it and made his dreams come true.
Also, quick reminder that Naru isn't your shit tier tsundere you have nowadays. Reread it if you need to, she's like 70% dere, 30% tsun. Perfect balance.
>>140766122
Like milk in a student flat, no-one wants to open the fridge to see how badly but at sometime you must.
It's fucking terrible.and I own all 14 volumes + novels for 50$ because it felt such a large part of my childhood
>>140766122
It'll be forever THE classic to read.
Samurai > loli >*
it ties with Dragon Ball and Evangelion as the worst thing to happen to anime
>>140773839
That's not HYD.
For starters, it actually has an ending with mcmarryingthe girl. Thats already better than 95% of harem anime
>>140766122
>first manga ever read
>friebd have me volume two start with in middle school
>got hooked
>developed a deep crush on Su and Ara Ara~
>still somewhat have that crush
Love Hina is a classic to me, yes.
>>140766293
>best girl was introduced too late
>Mokoto & Suu were introduced in Vol 1
>>140773641
>gniark gniark
Best girl is Mutsumi though.
Do you remember searching the internets for those Love Hina doujins in the ealry 00s?
My gateway to 2D porn. All part of my childhood. I'll never forget Love Hina.
Legit answer is yes. It's one of the best harem series. The anime was ass. But the manga is a must read.
>>140776901
Not enough Motoko doujins. You can never have enough Motoko.
>>140769869
...I think you mean Negima!, which yes in deed went to shit after Vol 20.
>>140776901
I could never get into Love Hina porn for some reason. Cared about it too much, I guess, like with other anime series that get a deluge of doujin.
>>140768894
>That hairstyle
this anon fucking knows
also best girl won, people need to get over the salt and bitterness
>>140777802
She's better like this
>>140778286
>better than wearing proof that you won
A for effort though
>>140771834
my n-word
Motoko a best
>>140779139
Ken wanted to go Motoko end but editor and publisher talked him out of it since they said it wouldn't sell and he was still to new to do like he does now. All in all its one I own and still re-read around once a year.
>>140766122
Honestly it's the reason I can't stand other Harems. Love Hina is a pretty perfect Harem. Most of the Characters actually have a decent background to justify their love for Keitaro and still have enough to stand out as their own characters.
Negima was pretty good too, but for different reasons. Hell, anything Akamatsu does with a harem is pretty fucking good.Motoko should have won though. Definitely best girl
>>140766122
The only manga series I own a complete set of physically.
>>140771834
He WAS Beta as fuck though. The reason he's a good MC is because got over his Betaness. That's why people like him. He does what no Harem MC would do in current Harem anime/manga.
>>140779629
>tfw Love Hina pisses you off and you go into anime because you want to find "a better harem"
>tfw you're still looking
I mean I've seen quite a few harems just as goodGeminar, Mushoku Tensei, Negima, Ai Korabut not one that surpasses it
>>140779139
Shitty tsundere.
>>140779915
what?
she's one of the only few that
>has a reason for being tsun
>has a reason for going dere
>makes the full transition from tsun to dere
>stays dere when she becomes dere
>has the transition from tsun to dere being a part of her character development (not only becoming dere but also being a more confident and mature person)
>>140778286
I love how chisame in negima is modeled after this look for naru.
