When I saw these episodes...I was truly amazed. The show changes to an intense romantic ending in the final 2 episodes, although there is still subtle comedic reliefs, much more so in the episodes before the final 2. These episodes are mainly about Naru, Mutsumi, and Keitaro. They're about who the girl that Keitaro promised to was and true feelings are finally exposed. A powerful ending (if you can even call it that...you'll see what I mean once you watch this) to a wonderful series that leaves much room for additions. You most likely will have the need to immidiately buy the christmas special, spring special, and love hina again ova's once you finish the tv series. But, these specials and ova's don't really finish the series...the only way to see the ending is to purchase the Love Hina Mangas, which will complete their american translations late 2003, and characters have more depth to them in addition to the finale of the series. All well worth your money...but don't forget to watch/read them all in order!

Mutsumi is in this volume more than any other time in the whole anime, even the parts we haven't gotten yet (the Spring Special and the three-episode OVA, Love Hina Again). Thus, I like it. In the first episode, Naru and Keitaro end up on a date of sorts, which a little girl is none too happy about. Mutsumi and Keitaro then end up on a date and Naru spies on them the whole way and ends up in a boat chase with them. (yes, a boat chase.)
In the next episode Naru's stepsister Mei, who arrived at the end of the previous episode, tries to get Keitaro and Mutsumi together so that Naru will come home with her. This leads to some odd plans from Mei, all of which ultimately fail.
The last two episodes of the TV series (episode 25 doesn't count) involve the promised girl. Though the anime never really reveals who she is, the manga apparently does. (I won't tell, though.) Granny Hina comes back and decides to remodel the Apartments. Thus, everyone has to move out for a few days. This gives Naru a chance to reflect on her relationship with Keitaro. The ending of the TV series really leaves a lot to be desired (and even the ending of the OVAs doesn't complete the story) but it's still quite entertaining.

As the saga of Love Hina comes to an end, we are left feeling happy yet unfulfilled. If you have seen the whole manga, you know this is not the end, instead this DVd takes us up to about the 10th volume of the manga (out of 14). Still the Naru, Mitsumi, and Keitaro love epic seems to be coming to a close. WHo gets him in the end, and who does he pick. Well that's simple it's... no that would be telling. If you were a fan of the shows slapstick and perverted comedy so far, you won't be dissappointed. Keep watching!

A clue has been found - a photo of Naru, Keitaro and Mutsumi has been found, from when they visited the apartments as kids. But Naru found it. Should she show it to the others? Without it, can Keitaro find out who he made the promise to? Will he ever find out? Will anybody figure out how Tuma can fly?
Then Naru's younger stepsister, Mei, shows up and plots to find a way to get Naru to return home with her. Once she finds out about the photo, it seems so simple. Just show it to Keitaro!

Add a date between Keitaro and Mutsumi, a kind of date between Keitaro and Naru and the return of Granny Hina and you make things even MORE confusing!
The ending is kind of bland, because, while things seem to be solved, they are not, not really. After all, Naru has yet to show her true feelings, whatever that means, and nobody has yet entered Tokyo U!
But don't worry - there are three Love Hina movies available after you finish collecting the series! They even put them into one collection - so go buy them!

Here's the question: How do you end a show that still has more to come? Since the TV show of Love Hina had to end but it's comic book (or manga) run was still going on, they had to figure out a way to close this chapter of the saga while still leaving room for more.

I'm happy to say that they had done it. I am a huge fan of the show and manga, and I can tell you that this doesn't disappoint. If you are planning to get this DVD, you must watch the previous 5 before hand. The story line is pretty linier and you will be lost if you watch this ending now. For all the rest of you, you are fans of the show and you will find yourself happy after watching this.

Once again, this is not a true ending, but it does provide the fans with a feeling of satisfaction. I can't wait for more!

This dvd was great! I really do recommend you watch this dvd, but you should watch the other 5 volumes first. This is the ending, and I hope the Love Hina Again series comes out on DVD in America, cause I really wanna see it!

The last in the Hina series, the title suits it perfectly. These four episodes cover the relationships of Keitaro, Naru, and Mutsumi almost exclusively. Naru is forced to deal with her feelings for Kei and the possibility that Mutsumi may be the "one" that his life has been centered on for so long. Keitaro now has a choice...will it be Naru or Mutsumi?...or is it anyone at all?...
The other characters are not ignored, especially Shinobu. When the residents must move out to allow repairs on Hinata Apartments, she works hard to bring everyone back "home".
As a closing, the final four is emotionally charged and less humorous than the other episodes. A fitting "end" to a wonderfully done storyline.

Ive written reviews of love hina since they first came out on dvd. Little did I realize that i skipped this dvd so here i am giving you the opinion of a love hina fan. The dvd starts off with Naru and Keitaro going out of a date. Can you really believe it? Those two actually hit it off kind of slowly until kentaro shows up. Afterwards we find out what Naru's true feelings are towards Keitaro. Keitaro actually goes on 2 dates in the movie. One was with Naru and the other was with Mutsume. The second and third episodes were about Mei (Naru's little sister) tries to get Naru to go home with her for her own little reason. The ending of the third episode shows something we all have been waiting to see. Naru and keitaro actually kissed!!!! I was waiting for that moment to happen and the time has finally come. Even though it was kind of brief (for about 5-10seconds) it was still a great moment for all of us fans. We then find out about keitaro's promise girl and how all of this came into the picture. It turns out that Mutsume is after Keitaro and now keitaro must make a decision. Naru or Mutsume? Find out if you plan to watch this dvd. I recommend this dvd to all of the people who have been watching the previous dvds!!!
