Fun with Love Hina
Going back through some old e-mails, I recently came across a challenge I'd posed to one of my betas a while back. We were discussing the Love Hina manga versus the anime version, and...well...I got a little silly:

Hmm...well, let's see--the anime left out, among other things...

  1. A complete and in-depth examination of Kanako (and no, the OVAs don't count)...
  2. Haruka and Seta finally getting together...
  3. The whole story behind Sara (very different in the manga from the anime)...
  4. Every single Hinata-sou tenant falling for Keitaro...
  5. Shinobu luring Keitaro to a love hotel...
  6. Motoko taking the Toudai entrance exam...
  7. Motoko *flunking* the Toudai entrance exam, and following Keitaro on the Path of the Ronin...
  8. Mutsumi hitting her head (again) and reverting mentally to the Age of the Promise...
  9. Naru student teaching--and Keitaro, impersonating a student, accidentally groping her in front of the whole class...
  10. Keitaro completing his evolution into Seta v.2...
  11. Motoko finding her true calling--as a romance novelist...
  12. Keitaro and Naru getting married--but not before EVERYONE else, led by Kitsune, gangs up to try to stop them...
  13. Of course, more fun with Nyamo...


(For extra credit, guess how many of these plot points were actually in the manga. ;) )

How long do you think it should have been? :)


Anyone up for some extra credit? :)

(Aside from my beta, of course--she just might remember what the answer was before...)

Today's story: Across Dimensions: Parting Reality's Veil (Naruto)

If I number your points from #1 to #13, I do believe I can win the extra credit here. However, I have not read the manga in a long time, so I may miss a couple.

True: #1, #2, #3, #4, #6, #7, #8, #9, #10, #12, #13.
False: #5, #11.

I should have thought of numbering them before. Thanks for the suggestion.

As to your guess, you did indeed miss a couple. :)
