Love Hina Vol 1 : 4 of 5

I was pretty excited to start watching this series, since I'm constantly seeing stuff on the web from excited fans of the show. For some reason, Netflix carried Volume 3 for months before getting the first two DVDs, so being able to watch the start of the series was great (I actually watched Volume 3 some time ago, and everything makes much more sense!). The general premise is the usual "geeky guy surrounded by beautiful girls" scenario that's so popular in soap opera type anime (which I love), but with the added twist that the guy is the manager of the apartments all the girls live in. There's also a touching backstory about his childhood promise to a girl to meet her at Tokyo University someday, so he's struggling to study to get into school (and, you guessed it, the girl he's looking for is living right there in the apartments). Everyone is cute and funny, and so far the show is a downright joy to watch.
