       "I can only guess," she admitted. "Listen, sugar... 

I... have to decide

where I'm going to set up shop for my father. He wants me 

to pick a spot

around here, since okonomiyaki appeals to the college 

crowd, and it's

kinda close to {Todai : Toudai}." She bit her lip, staring 

at the papers. "I...

don't know if that'd be a great idea, though... so I think 

I'm going to

pick a spot near the college... but not so close as I'll be in your
way." She winked at him. "Still close enough you can drop 

by if you want

someone to talk to, though. Sound good?"

	Ack! Now I have to revise all the earlier chapters, again.

	Er... No, you don't have to revise anything. I believe you were
right to begin with; "Toudai" is suspect spelling. I searched for
'todai', and found several references to the University of Tokyo, such
as:

http://www.ic.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~thai/
http://www.u-tokyo.ac.jp/
http://come.to/ppitodai
http://www.snapshotasia.com/Japan.htm


	When I tried searching for "toudai", I got a lot of references
to English-language Love Hina sites... but no refs to University of
Tokyo sites. That tells me something. How about you?

  It's just a romanization issue. Same reason everybody calls it "Tokyo" 
instead of "Toukyou", though the latter is a more faithful kana->romaji
translation. In this case, Todai is "to" + "u" + "da" + "i", yet for a 
LH fanfic, either-or would probably work.
