[ AISHITERU ]   a shrine to Naru Narusegawa of Love Hina
aishiteru; version 18
UPDATES ON THE SITE The newest updates will always be on the index page of the site, but for anyone who's interested, here are my older updates. (I'm sure nobody cares to see these updates; this is really more for me.)

FEBRUARY 20, 2004 Well, looks like it was about a year (and a few months) since my last update. *hangs head in shame* Sorry, guys... really, I am, but a lot of things have changed in my life, and this site sorta dropped on my list of priorities. To be honest, I don't think I can promise that I'll update all the time, but I promise that I'll try to add things here and there when I've got the time.

I got married in autumn 2003 and moved away from home, so you can imagine that a lot of the routine I had in my life has been disrupted, but I'm slowly getting back into the groove of everything, so when I'm not busy being a wife/worker/friend, I'll add things to Aishiteru. I really do miss working on this site, so maybe you'll see newer stuff around the place.

Now, you're wondering what has changed... first, there's the obvious — I changed the layout. :) The reason I call this version 15½ is because I actually made a new layout back in April 2003, but I was just too lazy to code the pages and upload it. Ha ha. I never got around to it, and then recently, I decided that it was time to make a brand new layout in Photoshop. And so, I did.

What else have I changed? I made a new poll, changed around some of the content (but not drastically), and I took out a lot of dead links and cleaned up the place. Afterall, I'm a lazy webmistress, so a lot of stuff is outdated and whatnot. x_x Affiliates have gone away, links have changed, and other stuff like that~ but I updated!

I decided that I won't be adding any info to Aishiteru on the LH manga, but please don't get on my case about that. I hardly have time to do anything, so I really haven't had the opportunity to sit down and finish the manga. I'm not saying I'll never read it, but if I do, then I'll let you guys know that I did... and as aftermath, manga information should be added to the site. Please stop emailing me with, "You haven't read the manga? You're crazy! Read it and update the site!"

Anyway, I want to thank all the regular visitors for constantly dropping by, and I'd also like to thank all the newcomers for visiting and leaving sweet comments in the guestbook. It's really appreciated. :) Psst... long-time visitors... see the image of Naru and Shinobu (in the right)? I used that in the very first layout for Aishiteru. Remember? :)

DECEMBER 14, 2002 Excuse me, hello, another update, you say? Can you believe it? I'm finally getting off my lazy ass to fix this place up! ^_^ And not only have I just changed the layout, but I've added other things for you guys to enjoy. XD

Lately, I've been trying to divide my time up between school, work, (my love life, har har), and an upcoming Kare Kano site. It's tough, I tell you. o_@ But anyway, I don't think anything will ever replace Love Hina as my fave, so do not fret, fellow visitors! This site is gonna stay alive and kickin' for quite some time! D: (I do apologize for the 4 months of no updates, though). :X

Well, current layout features Naru Narusegawa and Keitaro Urashima. ^_^ The art, incase you're wondering, is from the cover of the manga (volume 13). And to preempt your probable upcoming question, no, I have not finished the manga yet. Anyhoo, I think I'm pleased with the way this baby turned out, considering the fact that I thought it was gonna look like a complete waste of time. (Not to mention, the original image was blurry, dark & drab, and just blah. :X The entire editing process, however, including the background deletion and everything was thankfully easy to me). To maximize viewing for the site (and see it the way I do!), please have the font Arial Narrow installed, along with a resolution of at least 800x600 (but I use 1600x1200). It also helps if you've got 32 bit color!

According to the poll, you guys all wanna see larger image galleries? Oi... *rubs forehead* I'll see what I can do about it. Looks like episode guides were in 3rd place, so you're in luck, cuz that's definitely coming along nicely. ^^ The online store is now on the site, so you can go there to purchase Love Hina merchandise (like DVDs and CDs). Don't worry, it's totally legit — Aishiteru is affiliated with AnimeNation, so wipe that sweat off your forehead!

As for tiny updates, I've finally begun fixing up the adoption list. :E I also added a bit more to Naru's name translation since I got a lovely email, letting me know the what-what. XD Also fixed the links section and will eventually weed through all my emails to get the forwarding requests set up. Is there anything I missed? My word, I really hope not... >_> Because uh, I think I'll die. @_@ *points* BTW, check out the new poll and vote. XD

*winks* Here's hoping to these types of updates again (soon)!

Rydia's request: Please stop copying my layout(s) and stealing my content. ;-; I haven't been as vicious about that stuff lately (as in, emailing you and being insanely scary), but I'm hoping you'll all do the right thing without me having to tell you. (I'm having faith in you guys!) That is all.

NOVEMBER 01, 2002 lol, I'm sorry for that horrible, uh, update from a few weeks ago. The fact of the matter is, I was always iffy about getting rid of Aishiteru, but I was really wanting to kick rydia.nu in the butt. I decided to get a new domain (SHINJITE.NET) instead, so I'll be keeping this up. But I do hope you guys know that updates will be sporadic... sorry... but I don't really have any time these days.

OCTOBER 15, 2002 Er, this isn't necessarily gonna be the 'update' message you guys are looking for, but oh well, lol... I've decided to close Aishiteru and quit the whole webdesigning biz altogether. ^_^ It makes me sad since this was the first (and only?) Naru shrine I ever knew about on the Internet, but now it's gonna be gone. *sob* It'll remain static and up until the 7th of November, but then it's just gonna be a 'page cannot be shown' error or something. o_O It's been fun, everyone!

AUGUST 18, 2002 Uh, new layout. Somehow, a sudden spurt of inspiration hit me, so I decided to go with it. ^_^ This version features a scanned image of Naru and Shinobu from my LH artbook. =) I've altered stuff like crazy, so if I ever find an image like this on the web, I'll know where you got it. ;) Eep, and if someone says, "Where's the navigation?"... well... *points to the top* Right there. ^_^

Oh, and I also changed all pages to php instead of shtml! ^_^ (You can't tell it's shtml because of my htaccess page)... but er, yeah... it functions better now or something. :D Anyway, I know I haven't added any real site updates, (except for the new poll and layout), but uhm... sorry? :E *runs really far away*
