Negima!?

10-19-2006, 10:34 AM

That's the official title.

It's basically taking the manga and changing it a bit to an anime. Again.

The original anime was very accurate to the manga until the Mahora Festival, which is the best part, of course. Then they made up an ending and went with that. While it wasn't bad, it would have been much better to stick with the original story.

Once I found out about the original story, I've been hooked ever since, so I'm hoping this time around, the series tries to adapt certain aspects of the manga that made it excellent.

Original series plot summary:

10-year old Negi Springfield is a wizard-in-training, and needs only to pass one more test in order to become a Master Wizard. Unfortunately, his final task is a bizarre one- to become a English teacher at an all-females boarding school. As soon as he arrives, he completely embarasses one of his students, Asuna Kagurazaka, and replaces the teacher she loves, which garners her hatred. To make matters worse, Asuna learns that Negi is a wizard,and promises to tell unless he helps her out. But, unfortunately, circumstances force them to work together to do many things, from fighting evil wizards to helping the class pass their final exam, with a lot of humor, magic, and romances thrown in.

Again, it was so awesome, but I'm sincerely hoping this time they use the manga more.

ANIME SUX MANGA RULES I'M A ****** LOL

Anyway, this show is win and awesome because of how PPD! Season 2 it is.

I watched clouds awobbly from the floor o' that kayak. Souls cross ages like clouds cross skies, an' tho' a cloud's shape nor hue nor size don't stay the same, it's still a cloud an' so is a soul. Who can say where the cloud's blowed from or who the soul'll be 'morrow? Only Sonmi the east an' the west an' the compass an' the atlas, yay, only the atlas o' clouds.

Re: Negima!?

I'm confused why they'd want to make it again.. I read 5 of the books and loved it, then watched some of the first anime and didn't really get hooked, I'll give this a look.

Hope I caught the sarcasm correctly, because this is the only show I enjoyed the manga more than the anime. Mainly because they cut out pretty much...everything in the anime. Everything that makes the manga so great.

Anyway, the first two episodes of this pretty much skip all introductions that the manga / original anime had, meaning it's on like episode 8 of the original.

That means they have more time for the other good stuff... maybe.

But yeah Kefit is right the manga schools the original anime liek whaoo

Re: Negima!?

Yea I'll have to get into this. Agian when i'm off 56k (moving house).

I so rely on Squeek, kilga and other people who like anime on this forum to decide the two animes of the three series I download. Never get steered wrong. Saying that though I like almost every anime I watch anyway.

ps. Thread took 3 minutes to post, not including typing and spelling checks.

Re: Negima!?

I don't know what this show is, but it isn't Negima.

If they want PPD! 2, then ****ing make PPD! 2. All it does with this show is create a giant disconnect with the source material, which I have a difficult time overcoming regardless of how good the show may be on its own.

I have yet to watch episode two, but I am not really expecting much >_>

Re: Negima!?

If they include more of the actual manga storyline even with some adaptation, I wouldn't mind. I mean, the parts of the manga that make it so awesome.

It was an impulse anyway. Seth, I somewhat recommend seeing the original anime or reading into the manga as a lot of the unexplained factors will make more sense.

Here's hoping for contracts x 31 and not just in a horrible mess at the end.

Yea, I prefered the manga over the anime, I'm glad they're re-doing it (or whatever they're doing), but now that I'm stuck to the manga, I don't think I'll watch the anime anyways.

Re: Negima!?

*Sigh*

I still believe the manga is better than the anime for ALL of Ken Akamatsu's works. I have yet to see a true to the story adaptation of the manga. Love Hina was horrible as it literally played with the storyline for 23 episodes and decided to get serious at Episode 24 and 25 then release 3 crappy OVAs to satisfy fans.

While Mahou Sensei Negima! didn't exactly do this, I still would've liked to see it stay true to the actual story a little bit more. Plus add more fan-service Akamatsu-san is known for. :P

Negima did the same thing as Love Hina >_>

Normal story, normal story, normal story, DRAMA, made-up ending.

Re: Negima!?

Ok.

So it changed quite a bit.

Not to say it's not good.

It just changed.

A lot.
