question about Love Hina

Why does Sara wear a W.A.S.P. hat? Maybe she likes the band.....? But then again, why would a little girl be listening to them?.....lol

Maybe because Akamtasu though it would be funny to put "W.A.S.P" on the hat. I doubt it had anything to do with the muscial group. As well, the Japanese like to take English words and put them to different meanings (or something like that).

That and Sarah is from America.

Umm, have you stopped to consider a girl fond of crude Japanese and torturing poor Keitaro wouldn't be so unlikely to take up this W.A.S.P. as listening material, whoever they are. Alternately, he may have wished to subtlely comment that the girl is as pesky as a wasp.

W.A.S.P., when referring to the band, means We Are Sexual Perverts, so......yeah. lol

I wouldn't read too much into it. It's hard to say what the typical Japanese read would infer from the hat. Cloths with English on them are popular in Japan, regardless of what they say.

Akamatsu may like the band, but it is doubtful he'd understand the lyrics. I don't know if that would influence him in either way, though.

WASP may also, as GhostOnTheNet pointed out, may be there as a hint to Sarah's personality and role in the anime.

It could also be a reference to WASP meaning White Anglo-Saxon Protestant - indicating Sarah's American heritage.

All of those, I think are reasonable, but I don’t know which, if any, are true.

Where did the other Love Hina thread go...?
Heart of Sword's Rhapsody

Money, get away
Get a good job with good pay and you're okay
And all and all you're just another brick in the wall
Shoutin’ in the street gonna take on the world some day
But Bismallah will not let me go
Because I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
Bright eyes burning like fire
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids

Who will love a little Sparrow
Who's traveled far and cries for rest
Spare him his life from this monstrosity

I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all
And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes
We will we will rock you
We will we will rock you!
