DVD Reviews of Love Hina Christmas Movie

DVD Review: Great Special and DVD but...
Summary: 4 Stars

If you liked the "Love Hina" series, you will LOVE this special. There is less comedy in this but the romantic story between Keitaro and Naru makes great progress. The English dub is...well, I'm sorry but I will never accept Kitsune as a southern belle! It's just so wrong, especially if you watched the series in the original Japanese. And even if you didn't, it just feels...well, wrong. Keitaro's voice isn't as good, nor is Su's. It's sad really, because some series like "Hand Maid May" actually do a great English dub.

As to the DVD, there is an extra "Love Hina" episode here -- an OAV 25th episode. It is a filler episode dealing with Motoko and her sister. It could have been a good episode as all of the previous Motoko episodes were. However, the writers and animators thew out a good story in favor of tons of fan service. I thought the original series was done fairly tastefully -- some fan service, but nothing too "in your face". This episode actually has Keitaro falling (nothing new) and managing to pull down Motoko's panties as she falls. That's just for starters! It is outrageous!

Bottom line: The special is GREAT and episode 25 is OK. "Love Hina" fans should put this in their collection!
