Love Hina is a beast from a different time where rom-coms could still be ecchi without being overly gross and violence could be comically over-the-top. Regardless, the story you see in the anime and all the specials is not the end you need to see.

Where To Start The Love Hina Manga After The Anime?

This does include the Christmas and Spring specials as well as Love Hina Again, all of which contain canon content from the manga.
What to Expect From The Love Hina Manga?
While Love Hina is a lovely anime, as an adaptation of the manga, it is a pretty bad one. The anime kept things somewhat concise until near the end when it started to run out of money, changing things and picking up the pace. Love Hina Again also tells a very condensed version of Kanako’s arc. It is highly recommended to read Love Hina from the beginning to get the best version of the story.
Is The Love Hina Manga Over?
The Love Hina manga is complete. It ended in 2002 with Chapter 118.
