Summary: Sweet, but too dopey
Review: Like Vol 1 the characters are charming and the technical quality of
the animation is absolutely first class. The problem is that the story
lines just go uniformly down hill. By the last episode, Gilligan's Island
looks like MacBeth in comparison. There will be fouteen year olds who
walk away saying "Too dopey." The characters have wonderful potential,
so I hope they elevate the writing in later volumes.

Summary: Oh, my . . . !
Review: Love Hina Go West! is a continuation of the Love Hina series. Being such, you can imagine all the slapstick humor that is involved (assuming that you've seen any Love Hina at all). When both Keitaro and Naru fail to get into Tokyo U, they decide to go on vacation. They went seperately, but through some odd situations they end up together. Keitaro's feelings for Naru deepen. Later on we are introduced to an interesting character: Kentaro. I won't say too much about him, or it might ruin things. Su creates a machine that shows what someone is dreaming or thinking. As always, this works against Keitaro. In the second episode on the disc there are times when I almost can't watch because what Keitaro is doing is painful to witness. A fully entertaining DVD and worth the price.I just realized, I said all that and I didn't even mention that Keitaro got his first kiss. From who? you wonder. I guess you'll just have to watch it to find out.

Summary: Great Anime, Bad dub
Review: Love Hina is one of the most popular romanic comedy anime availible. It really pains me to have such a great show be slaped together by a company whos out just for profit. The terible english dub is one proof, and to add to that the subtitles are small and in a font that's hard to read, which make me think they are forcing me to watch it in english. But the only way to watch this is in Japanese, so I bear with the subtittles. This is one of the animes that I wish would be done over again with a better dub and bigger subbtitles in a easy to read font.

Summary: Extremely funny.
Review: Love Hina is, in all likelyhood, the funniest anime I've seen in a long time. The characters are interesting and all around neat. The video game episode is really just a prelude to the unrestrained crazyness of some of the later episodes that will have you doubled over laughing. It is one of the few things I can keep watching an never get tired of. The only down is that I'm not too fond of the English voices, I happen to like the original Japanese a lot more. But the bottom line is that the show is a really enjoyable and just plian fun to watch.

Summary: Let the Mutsumi goodness commence!
Review: Mutsumi Otohime is my favorite Love Hina character. Scratch that, she's my favorite anime character of all. Thus, I enjoyed episodes 5, 6, and 8 where she appeared. Basically, the first two episodes are more or less telling one story, about Keitaro and Naru's "sad vacation" to Kyoto. they run into each other on the way, but having lost their glasses neither recognizes the other. This makes for some humorous situations. They also meet Mutsumi, who acts eerily like Keitaro and is also anemic, so she faints often. Naru's reign of terror against Keitaro continues (And on an entertaining note, Shinobu actually hits Kaolla with an appliance ^_^) The final episode on the disc is one of my favorites. It's basically a parody of (among other things) Mothra movies and role-playing games. Mutsumi appears in this episode as two tiny copies of herself, and sings an addictive song garaunteed to be stuck in your head for a week at least (The extras contain the lyrics and a longer version of the song, though I found the full version online. It rocks!). If you liked the first volume, you'll like this too. If you like Mutsumi, you'll love this!

Summary: Volume two of a Terrific Series!!
Review: The results of Naru and Keitaro's college entrance exams, a trip to Kyoto, Keitaro's female version, and a Role-Playing game-like episode!
Highly recommended if you enjoyed the first disc.

Summary: The fun continues...
Review: The second in the Love Hina series, this DVD continues the fun, though there are points where the humor goes overboard, i.e. the first episode contains a chase scene where Keitaro runs from a mini-van just before he takes his Tokyo U exam. The stories kept me entertained, and I giggled through each when I wasn't laughing outright. The only gripe I have is with the third episode on the disc. It left me wondering why it was done in the first place. Other than that, if you liked the first four episode, this disc won't be a disappointment.

Summary: The contiuation of Love Hina!
Review: This DVD is as enjoyable as the first. Although, the English dub episodes are boring, I find the Japanese with English subtitles quite more enjoyable. I highly reccomend this DVD. Keitaro and Naru are going to take their college entrance exams again, but when they get there, a man at the front gate says they don't belong. Keitaro misunderstands him and thinks that he's already being turned down from Toudai. But the man tells him and Naru that they're at the wrong campus. While they are going through the line, the man at the register (or whatever)asks for Keitaro's exam card, and he doesn't have it. Then, he gets chased by a wreckless drive (whom we meet in volume 1, which was Naru's high school tutor), and he hands Keitaro his exam card. In the hallway, Keitaro accidentally bumps into a girl named Mutsumi Otohime, whom we think is dead, because her eyes look strange. And she has a turtle on her head. In episode 8, (which is really my favorite), it's like an RPG game. All the characters are dressed up, and the two tiny Mutsumis sing a cute, yet "addictive song" My only problem is the English dub. Keitaro's voice is done by the same voice actor who does Ken in Digimon, and Motoko's voice is done by the same voice actress that does Izzy in Digimon, and her name is Mona Marshall. The English dub voices are lacking what the Japanese voices have. Overall, this DVD is a great buy. I reccommend this!

Summary: A great followup to the first disc
Review: This is the second disc (of 6) of Love Hina, containing episodes 5 through 8. While the essence of the show is the overused wimpy guy surrounded by girls premise, Love Hina is both odd enough and good enough that you need to start with disc 1, rather than jumping in midstream. The first two episodes, in combination, are the best: after failing their entrance exams, Naru and Keitaro try to escape each other, while everyone else starts chasing them. These episodes also introduce Mutsumi Otohime, who obviously is destined to intrude on Naru and Keitaro's slowly budding romance. The third episode is easily the weakest of the four, but not bad by any means, while the fourth is an entertaining spoof of role-playing games. The real charm of Love Hina is the contrast between its heart, with the growing relationship between Naru and Keitaro, and its wackiness (in which Naru frequently punches Keitaro into the sky or he finds himself tied up by the other girls with his thoughts broadcast on TV). When the balance between heart and wackiness is just right, as it is in the second and fourth episodes, the show is absolutely hilarious. This disc corrects most of the problems of the first disc, such as the low audio level of the English dub. This has been fixed, although the secondary subtitle track (translating signs) is not timed properly, so that the subtitles appear sometimes minutes after the signs are gone from the screen. The fake-sounding accents in the dub are toned-down quite a bit. In sum, if you liked disc 1, there's no reason you wouldn't like disc 2 just as much.
