Love Hina novels licensed in English
Tokyopo’s website now features a profile for Akamatsu Ken’s popular shounen story Love Hina, which has been out in North America in anime form for quite some time now. It’s actually kind of surprising that Tokyopop handled this title when Del Rey has done such a superb job with Akamatsu’s Negima!, a title that contains nearly as much random nudity and fanservice as Love Hina does. We’ll see in a few months’ time whether they’re up to the challenge [of the novel]!

So… It’s a sequel to Love Hina?
And I’d think that Tokyopop would get this title because they published Love Hina.

Oh, awesome! Now I’m excited. ;D
Is it a totally new story from the manga? Or the same but in novel form?
The Tokyopop site doesn’t say much.
