"This disc starts off kind of bad. The first episode really isn't very good, and I wasn't particularly interested by it. However, the second episode is easily one of my favorites. When the moon turns red, Kaolla transforms into an older version of herself. Kaolla's sister, Amalla Su, shows up at Hinata Hot Springs to deal with her little sister's transformation by getting rid of the man who is causing it: Keitaro! (he reminds Kaolla of her older brother) Amalla Su has a white alligator named Shiro as a pet. Yes, you heard me, she has a white alligator!The third episode has Naru becoming an idol singer (and she sings a nice song in the episode). Sure, it's wierd when you watch an English dub and the singing is still Japanese, but at least the songs are there even in the English versionThe last episode has everyone learn that Motoko is afraid of turtles, including the resident flying and talking Tama. This leads ultimately to a giant robot turtle attacking the Hinata Apartments.These are mostly filler episodes, but entertaining nonetheless. If for nothing else, buy this for the Red Moon Kaolla episode!"
Naru becomes a pop-star!

"In episode 9, Keitaro, the manager of the Hinata Inn has all of his money in a little case. When he comes back to his room, the money is gone! So, Kitsune and Su start seeing who the thief was, but it was nobody at the Hinata Inn. Then, Kitsune says she did. And she has a very clever way, too. To find out who she did it, buy this DVD! In episode 10, Everytime the red moon comes out, there's a mysterious woman with an alligator. Kentaro Sakata is going to give flowers to Naru, but on his way, he discovers the girl, and gives them to her instead. She refuses the flowers, and her alligator beats him up. We discover that Kaolla Su turns into an adult version of herself when the red moon is out. Kentaro says that that girl is Su, but she is not. Instead, she is Su's sister, Amalla Su. She wants Su to come back with her, but Su refuses. This is also another one of my favorite episodes. In episode 11, Naru becomes a pop-star. She gets tired of singing, so she decides to go back to her normal life. In episode 12, Motoko's clothes have been washed, and she has nothing to wear. So, she ends up wearing girl clothes, which she does not like. That episode was really cute!"
Enter The Hina Zone...

"The rent money has disappeared, a mysterious woman who looks like an older verison of Kaolla is running about at night (with a alligator), Naru may become a Pop-Idol and Motoko is dressing up in normal outfits for once!
Who took the money? Who is the woman and how is she linked to Kaolla? Will Naru become rich and famous and leave the apartments? Will Motoko ever find her pride again?
Add a giant robot, that looks like a turtle, Kitsune dressed up like Sherlock Holmes, and lots of extras and what you have is a great DVD!"
Love Hina continues to please!!

"Love Hina volume 3-

Highly recommended if you enjoyed the first two discs."
