DVD Reviews of Love Hina Spring Movie

DVD Review: About As Good As The Series
Summary: 3 Stars

DVD Review: Three words, Worst Ending Ever!!!!
Summary: 4 Stars

DVD Review: Messed up T-T
Summary: 2 Stars

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*
Keitaro thinks he failed his entrance exam so he runs off for a job that he has no idea about and ends up on a island,rescued by the very-suspicously-looks-like-Shinbou,Nyamo,and then Naru and the gang tries to bring him back....

....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...^_~!

DVD Review: Utterly Pointless.
Summary: 2 Stars

DVD Review: Look At It As A Bonus Disc...
Summary: 3 Stars

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.
