    plus a couple OAVs I hear. but yeah, that's it. It's on the other end of the spectrum from those series that stretch on forever and find new material in their ..ahem.. posterior

    Oh, dear. Is that Dai Kanchou stuff showing up here, too?

    ---------------
    In the famous words of a Sci-Fi anime reviewer:
    "shounen-riffic" and "dating-sim-tastic"
    Or was that about "Boys Be"...?

    whee!!
    Spring special, just in time for our mid April blizzard
    ps- There's some dude on the INF forums who has the Love Hina manga posted on his site (plays Infiltration, likes Love Hina, must be cool). and don't tell me you have it already because I would not be surprised at all.

    Let's just say that as a fan, I felt very served [​IMG] seriously, the gratuitous celluloid aside, it was pretty good. Made me laugh out loud multiple times. Maybe I am demented

    I would be a little suspicious of a second season, cause then, they'd be out of Manga volumes to base it on, and would have to do completely new stories. We all know what happened to Kenshin the anime when it went off on it's own..
    Speaking of the mange, it's pretty good! I sure wish people would mirror flip it though, don't really care if it makes everyone look left handed.

    Maybe I have to recall my voiced suspiciouns about a possible second season.. from weird rumours I have heard, there are more than 8 volumes of the Manga, or will be. So, IMHO the anime can peacefully continue with a hopefully minimal loss in quality.

    fortunately that script is easily amenable to expansion
