"Cowboy"
What the. Why did this happen? Why isn't this always happening?
They go to a paradise island like five times and Akamatsu couldn't find time for an awesome cowboy arc?

"irony"
Or perhaps just "iron". I want to add the y in there, but knowing this manga, his shirt could really be covering anything.

Everyone remember that moment when suddenly Shinobu became the hottest girl in the series? Yeah. That was a good moment.

This is the truest thing I've ever seen in my life.
No wonder this weirdo went on to write Negima.

I don’t even know what to say about this one…

"Tahiti."
There are a couple odd references to Tahiti in Love Hina.
I always forgot the names of these two. For some reason in my mind they're inexorably connected to that character from Chobits who scores with their hot homeroom teacher. You guys know that dude?
Worth noting that he ends up with the hot homeroom teacher, and he never wore a single weird t-shirt. Say what you will about Shimbo, but bro had styyyyle.

Do I feel bad for Kanoko? I guess I do in the grand scheme of things. To be honest, I thought Kanoko kind of showed up when Love Hina needed a shakeup, and then Akamatsu realized he didn't have a totally clear idea about what to do with her, so I find her occasionally amusing, but mostly frustrating.
She's got her moments, though, and this is certainly one of them. Also, to make it relevant, we're treated to a great view of the indomitable "MOTOX and playground".
Still making no sense, all these years later.

"FORTW" and "The Brilliant Green"
Naru's adorable when she's angry. No wonder she was the tsundere poster-girl of '00.

"Deasel: Low Oxygen"
For someone who's so brainy, Naru sure does own a lot of bafflingly misspelled hoodies.

"FORTW"
tsun tsun dere dere
Parenthetically, Keitaro: "FORTW" is not a word. It's a Scrabble hand.

There's no weird shirt here, but what Keitaro's hands are doing seems impossible.
Is his one hand reproducing by budding?
