Product Description
From Amazon.com
This second television special picks up where the so-called "Christmas Movie" left off, with Keitaro, Naru, and Mutsumi taking the Tokyo University entrance exam for the umpteenth time. Convinced he's blown the test by falling asleep, Keitaro accepts Mr. Sato's offer of a job on the South Pacific Island of Pararkelse. When she finds out, Naru sets off to bring him back. Shinobu, who's upset because a boy likes her and she adores only Keitaro, follows--as does the rest of the regular cast. On Pararkelse, Keitaro and Naru help a girl named Nyamo look for her grandfather, who disappeared searching for the ruins of an "ancient turtle civilization." As Keitaro, Naru, and Mutsumi all pass the entrance exam and Naru finally admits she loves Keitaro, this adventure seems to mark the end of the Love Hina continuity. (Rated 13 and older: comic violence, risqué humor, brief nudity, tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

Messed up T-T,
By Tessa-chan (Where in the world are YOU?) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Love Hina Spring... (DVD)
Story:2(could have been a WHOLE lot better,not chopped up in a hurry and not having such a pointless and stupid ending,leaving you in the dust...*grumble*)Art:4(Ohhh! How I hate their faces!!! They are so chubby and long!!!! ggrrr...dont ask why but Mustsumi reminds me of this annoying girl at school,but the art of the anime makes her look exactly like her...grr) Music:4(okay,not too many new songs,but the one that was new sorta stinks...-_-'..Keitaro,Naru and the others sing it..) Characters:3(too easy going,unlike the manga...*whispers* you can tell I love the manga,huh?) Sounds:5 Okay,first let me say what I have to say about this DVD/video. The manga is soooo much worth reading than this 'movie'(they turned my favorite kawaii volume into a pointless piece of you know what!). Its boring,but if your a real Love Hina faniac and have money to crash then I guess this is for you. The movie starts out intresting,making me excited if this is a good movie. I think one of the highlights of this movie is that...*smirks* Mr.Akamatsu himself makes a appearance....he kind of reminds me of a few other manga artists out there who 'accidently' show up in their works...*coughs* Miho Obana *cough* ....the sad thing about this movie is...its so unrealstic! It has no plot,the way the end up on the island is so unbelieveably stupid and corny (in the manga Suu did not fly on a man-made turtle! Or Naru sky diving! They all went by plane! Which makes the manga seem a little more realstic! The people making the anime must have skipped through the manga and made up everything and the ending...) To me,if you like this story,the manga is much more uncut,funny,and the art is goregous ^_~! I love the way Akamatsu draws his characters! Also his stories are much more enjoyable and not butchered like in the manga,and dig this,its a whole lot cheaper than the anime! Uh oh...I'm getting off the subject! ^-^' They should have not ended the series the way they did. They should have waited and finished the story AFTER THEY COMPLETED THE WHOLE SERIES,NOT FINISHING IT IN THE MIDDLE! We would have more earned stuff for our money! ^^ Oh well,thank god for manga!(uh oh! I said that word...*tsk* *tsk* :P) Anyway if you really need some Love Hina before the OVA,then by all means you will enjoy at least some of the movie...^_~!

Utterly Pointless.,
By
This review is from: Love Hina Spring... (DVD)
Love Hina - Christmas Movie provided the closing remarks. It gave what viewers wanted by letting Keitaro and Naru join together as a couple and fellow students at the college of their dream. It was nice to see that they decided to finish the series in good note in which Episode 24 didn't. BUT...Instead of leaving the series at the top of shape, they decided to milk it as much as it can. And the result is Love Hina - Spring Movie. Unlike Christmas Movie, this provides no additional plot, nor extra material such as Episode 25 (it is useless, however). It is covered with sameless that starts to wear thin, and 45 minutes of movie starts look as if it would never end. I can't see any justification of purchasing this movie, since this is pointless part of the series. Very disappointing.

Look At It As A Bonus Disc...,
By
This review is from: Love Hina Spring... (DVD)
Don't buy the Love Hina Spring Movie DVD for the special. This single, 45 minute Spring Special (affectionately renamed 'Movie' by Bandai) starts strong but ends weak and turns the original manga story it was based on into a joke.Instead, buy this disc for its features. This DVD has all the bonuses that we've been waiting for and denied since the series was released, including textless openings and closings to the series, the textless ending to Episode 24, and the textless ending to the Spring Special itself. Still, the price is pretty steep for just a bonus disc that has a single 45 minute epsiode on it and extras, but we can always hope the price will come down. So if you're going to buy it, buy the DVD for the features to complement the series, and considor the 'Movie' an extra bonus. ...And don't worry, this isn't the end. The OVA Love Hina Again will be released soon enough and it puts on a rather nice ending to the anime series.
