Alright, a semi-useless poll, but I'm still interested in the answer.
I think Naru's is probably the best sung, but I really like Kanako's rendition of it (esp. the parts where it switches to minor chords). Also, I'm not sure if its just the way she sings, but I really like her accent.
Anyone who hasnt seen LHA and is interested in this poll, I can stream you the 3 songs via radio, just PM when when you see me on.

The problem I have with a lot of pop songs, American or Japanese, is that some of them should be shorter in length. Lotta songs are catchy but after the second verse is over, hearing the rest of it is repetitive and gets a bit annoying for me :p.
This one is an example of that and I just think Kanako's voice isn't so bubbly that it makes hearing the whole song annoying
.
My fav song from the Love Hina series: "Winter Wish" from the Christmas special. I like the TV ending song too *bows to Hayashibara*.

I think my fav. song from thw whole series is
Mirai e no Okurimono, closely followed by
Egao no Mirai e. Then this song of course.
That reminds me, I have to get back to work finding a nice Kitsune avatar.

Yeah, like so:
- Ep1 (Kanako) ended with Be For You, Be For Me (Naru)
- Ep2 (Keitaro) ended with Be For You, Be For Me (Kanako)
- Ep3 (Naru) ended with Be For You, Be For Me (Duet)
As for the Manga, I reeeeeeeeeeeeallllly want to buy it (so I can see the series the way it was meant to be seen, and so I can see the real ending), but I'm sooooooooo short on cash, what with University in the fall and all.
Hopefully I'll find a means to get them.
As for LHA's art, I was fairly neutral overall except for Keitaro, who was much improved. Kitsune was basically the same - thank god, given how badly they borked Kaolla (like kaolla way better in regular LH).

The manga is great. I have the last 2 volumes (13 and 14) to finish the story after Love Hina Again. The manga version of the events of LHA is different too; the battle for the Hinata Inn between Kanako-Naru vs the other girls is halarious and
spoiler wrote:instead of Naru running through the abandoned wing to escape Keitaro, she runs all the way to Hokkaido with everyone else chasing after her .
The last 2 volumes also develope Motoko a lot and more on Suu's background. Motoko's my favorite character from LH.
You can find people selling Love Hina vols 1-14 on ebay. Each retail is about $7 so if the 14 volumes are below $100 then it's a better deal. I see some auctions currently at ~$50 and with "buy now" of $90. Which is like the price of a new textbook :p.
