I LOVE Love Hina Series, its one of my fav animes. I enjoyed watching this special because as you might know, in this episode appears Motoko's sister (who I think is a lot hotter than her).

This special is also known as the chapter 25. Since Motoko is an interesting chatacter, this especial tries to make her look even more interesting, by showing an intense fight and another side of her life...

So now you know, if you want to know more about Motoko's life, you should watch this 20-mins special

So this is the first installment for the post-Love Hina anime that consists of 3 specials and 3 episode OVAs. I suggest the audience who want to go through them to follow the release order that is: Motoko's Choice -> Christmas Special -> Spring Special -> Love Hina Again. Now let's get down with the review.

-Motoko taking a bath together with Keitaro in a scene.
-Motoko in maid outfit.

That is all. Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary.

This DVD bonus episode is an adaption of the fan-favorite "Burn up Blade!" arc from the Love Hina manga.

It's a fairly well known fact that mangaka Ken Akamatsu's favorite Love Hina character is Motoko Aoyama and this arc is probably the turning point in the original manga where she begins to appear much more frequently. As an interesting side fact, by the time the series ended the character of Motoko was more popular in fan polling than the lead heroine, Naru Narusegawa!

So with that being said, if you are a fan of Motoko and in particularly the idea of a Motoko and Keitaro fan-shipping read more

First, don't watch this if you haven't watched Love Hina, it'll spoil some stuff.

Story:
This special will give a nice backstory for Motoko, you'll met her sister and learn some stuff about her past. All your favorite characters will be there to give a mix of shonen, comedy and echii. This episode focuses on shonen action between Motoko and her sister witch makes me wonder if it'll be a good idea to make a anime about Matoko.

Art:
I'ts slightly better than the original, though i'm not particulary a fan of the artwork, probably because its better in the manga. This special will give lots of read more
