"Love Hina"

Feb. 20, 2002

So, I'm addicted to this anime called "Love Hina." I've never really watched anime before, since I was always turned off by the quality of the animation and the people I knew who seemed so obsessed with it. I think I can understand a little of their obsession now.



"Love Hina" is about this guy, Keitaro, who becomes the manager of a girl's dormitory. He tends to walk in on them at inopportune moments and punched violently. He can withstand a great deal of punishment. Keitaro is 20 years old and is trying to get into Tokyo U. because he promised his childhood sweetheart that they would attend together. Though he doesn't remember her name or her face, he still intends to fulfill that promise. Unfortunately, he's not very bright and failed the entrance exam three years in a row.



Its a very funny show. If you ever get the chance to watch it, even if you. like me, think you wouldn't like Japanese cartoons, go ahead and try it anyway. (I have the urge to end this now "Reading Rainbow"-style, no idea why...) "But don't take my word for it!"
