Negima turning into an Anime ? Great ! I've always wanted to see what that serie looked like Very Happy

i think the anime is going to be rushed and unsatisfactory

According to the cover of the 8th comic, it's gonna start from 5th Jan. 25:00 @ TV Tokyo... I ain't sure but that's what it says...

I only found the first one or two chapters of the manga in .torrent. Anyone know where I can find more?

Just tried watching the first episode of the anime last night. Like any good show, it put me to sleep within it's 20 minute run time. (I start watching anime a bit after midnight and see if I can fall asleep before the end of the first episode. Keeps me supplied when subbers slow down, but gets frustrating when I actually like the series.) Hopefully it'll be interesting. First half of episode 1 seems to skip a lot of details the manga had.

Who made this anime ??? It's not like Ken Akamatsu's work at all! It's totally different! I thought it will be like Love Hina, but now I think it will be much worse than Love Hina.

the manga is made by ken and prolly also the anime is made by ken...same design from love hina

the eyes freaked me out as well. it prolly wouldnt have if i didnt read the manga first. after watching the 1st ep, i think i like the manga better. still, sometimes it takes a series a good 9 eps or so to get good.

did anyone laff (becuz it was haha funny) at any pt while watching the 1st ep?.... cuz i didnt and am saddened by that fact.

i like the samurai deeper kyo manga better than the anime. i like the first 2 eps of the anime... the other 24 was.... yea....

The first episode was not that funny nor was it that good, just average. It was a introduction episode though so can't comment until the next episode.

Mixed reactions to the first episode. I'm glad the contrast between Asuna's eyes has been toned down. Those intros were just a little too vibrant. But other than that "and the freakishly wide hips from the panty shot] I prefered the art from the intros. Negi hardly looks like a little kid with the smaller head and broader shoulders. And the change in hair colors... well that's a minor gripe.

Contentwise, I'll hold judgement until more episodes are aired.

yea, this anime is an insult to the manga
they packed too much chapters in 1 episode. It seems more like a summary than a series. And Asuna's voice sound like a sissy! She's supposed to be an independant, strong, stubborn girl! They should have used the voice cast from FMP Chidori or someone else.
Furthermore, they cut out the ecchi scenes and their panty shots are horrendous. The portrayal of the bear was totally idiotic.
The animation isnt that good either

They better start bucking up or more MSN fans are gonna get pissed Twisted Evil
