Mahou Sensei Negima! Vol.15 Limited Edition
I happened to be near Kinokuniya yesterday when I received a call from the Japanese book counter telling me that my Negima! Vol.15 was ready for collection.
The limited edition is waaaay overpriced but I bought it anyway because I am a tool of the system. It comes with a DVD that contains promotional material for the new Negima! OVA.
After watching the DVD, I am happy to say that the new Negima! OVA is better than I expected. The character designs are surprisingly close to the original and the animation quality and detail are a few hundred times better than the horror that was the TV series. A few hundred being a modest estimate. The entire cast is retained as far as I can tell. The OVA also seems to contain a little more fanservice… Well, still far less than the manga.
One complaint: The OP “Yume Minna de” is not as catchy as “Happy Material”.

Oh~ This is where the preview of the OVA came from. LoL! Perhaps I should go get a copy too..

I agree about the OP song. Happy Material was one of the few things good about last year’s TV series. The music and the songs… Hopefully with the new stuff, the music is on par.

Is it just me, or did Chisame and Nodoka turn out REALLY nicely in the OVA? Granted, Setsuna’s nose looks funny, and Evangeline’s face is a bit too round at times, but…

Oh crap.. I just bought this today also… but didn’t see any special editions…
… meh probably can’t afford it anyways. Well if SHAFT sticks to the quality seen in this trailer, we’d be in for such a freakingly fun ride.
