Synopsis
Out of nowhere, Motokos' sister (Tsuroko) appears and is ready to pass on the dojo. However, Motoko is still not quite as strong as her sister and when her big sister finds out about this, she gives Motoko an ultimatum- Motoko must beat her sister or marry Keitaro! (Source: Animelover27)
Audience Consensus
The audience generally enjoys this special, particularly fans of Motoko. The episode provides a nice backstory and focuses on her character, offering some fan service and shonen action. However, some feel the story is not particularly special and too much content was condensed from the manga. Overall, it's considered a worthwhile addition for fans of Love Hina and especially Motoko.
