Love Love Hina!
It's a pretty hilarious anime. The story revolves (or rather based) around his search for the girl from his childhood. The anime progresses and we got through the lives of the tenants and it's very upbeat (listen to the opening theme "Megumi Hayashibara - Sakura Saku" I think it was).
There's also a later three episodes after the specials which I think's pretty good also. (OVA I think?)
Before I finish - if you do watch this go for the Japanese language version with subtitles. (The english is rather umm... odd I think...)

well, I think it's really good, but I can only say this from reading the manga. The art is fantastic! lol. But if you're really young, I'd tell you not to read this, cuz there are a few awkward moments..

I rather liked the TV series; quite humorous. However, I wouldn't recommend the OVA/"Love Hina Again" in general, as they are... even less appropriate for younger audiences. Which is saying a something, considering the TV series...

Which is saying a something, considering the TV series... hmm..i forgot if there was anythign inappropriate in the OAV ones but love hina is REALLY funny. but soemtimes it seems a bit boring cause the things jsut keeps happeneing over and over again for instance spoiler: that guy and that girl was abt to kiss alot of times but in the end theres ALWAYS someone that stop them! plus! those two keeps failing the HSC over and over again..which makes it kinda boring

I dunno, I love the series - - it's full of filler-type episodes most of the time though which is kinda sad, but it was good - - the OVA I did kinda love coz if its... funnier? Than the series - - but then again I am a guy, and being able to relate to Keitaro (the failure trying to get into Uni - - the complete lostness of his character)its is kinda a fantasy of mine come true in anime form.
((I really hope you don't think I serious coz I ain't - - but I do like the series majorly and still do. Mitsumi's the best ^^))
Recommended for 13+: taken in an episode a fortnight and by the time you've finished the series and read the manga and had a little holiday, come back and watch the OVA ^^
