Love Hina Volume 2

Great quality and packaged nicely also such a lovely series

This book was just as enchanting and hilarious as the first. It kept me laughing and entertained. I give it 2 thumbs up and 5 stars! Can't wait to read the next volume!

The second volume of Love Hina is wonderful. Less fanservice (but there are still *some* boob shots, for all you horny guys out there!) and more plot. Is Naru the girl from Keitarou's memories? We still don't know! While this book does leave you wondering, there are a lot of hints, and the plot development is fun. If you've read the first book, then you have to buy this. Plot-wise, it's a lot deeper than volume one, and the characters are explored a bit more, too. Overall, a great read. Give it a go.

This is the second volume of the Japanese comic book series. It's hard to catagorize it, but I would say it's a "romantic comedy with lots of slapstick". It continues the story of Keitaro and the girls who live at Hinata House. You get a better idea of the individual girls personalities this time around, especially Su, who was pretty underdeveloped in the first book. The intriguing love-hate relationship between Keitaro and Naru continues. Will they end up together? I would think so, but I don't know, I have only read the first two books in the series. But you better believe I plan on reading the rest of the books and finding out. Fans of manga comedy should really enjoy this. I think it will have a lot of appeal to teenage girls (not that I am a teenager, or a girl, for that matter). But of course you should read the first book in the series before you read this one.

Certainly the scenic route is not the shortest, but if you're in such a big hurry, take the expressway. While my knowledge of Japanese culture is limited to the Iron Chef and about a score of films directed by Kurosawa, Ozu, and Itami, even such a brief acquaintence with the art of this remarkable culture reveals a persistent fascination with atmosphere and character. If you need a plot as tight as a snare drum, go elsewhere. If, on the other hand, you share my enjoyment of the details, the nuances of the location, and the wonderful quirks that make the characters so lovable, then you, like me, will be utterly enchanted with the second volume of "Love Hina." No matter how many times I read the volumes of this series, it is never enough. I even translate as much of the katakana as I can make out, just so I don't miss a single drop of Akamatsu's intoxicating elixir. I'm sorry there are only fourteen of them, but, as with the nine symphonies of Beethoven, they improve with familiarity. Many thanks.

I'm a huge fan of manga. Sailor Moon being my first series. This is my second. I just fell in love with this book and all the ones in this series. It is about a guy who is trying to get into Tokyo University to fulfill a promise to a girl he knew a long time ago. They promised eachother that they would go to Tokyo University so they could live happily ever after as the legend states. The only problem with this is that he can't remember the girl's name or anything else about her for that matter. After failing the entrance exams his parents kick him out of the house so he goes to live at his grandmother's inn. There he runs into another problem. It is no longer an inn. It's a girls dormitory! Upon arriving he runs into a lot of problems with the residents. His aunt then stops by with some surprising news! His grandmother has given him Hinata House! He then becomes the new landlord but the ladies aren't too excepting of him and give him a lot of problems. His problems continue into this volume of Love HIna but now the most violent resdent at Hinata house may very well be that girl he made a promise to so many years ago. He's developed a crush on her but does she really like him underneath all the abuse? Very funny comic! I highly reccomend!
