Negima! Magic 101: The Basics of Magic
Welcome to Mahora Academy, an all girls school that has a star teacher
there by the name of Negi Springfield, a 10 year old prodigy and wizard
in training!
This
is a fun filled flick very similar to Love Hina with it’s flirtatious
nature, which is somewhat disturbing with the fact that it’s directed at
a 10 year old boy by slightly older girls.
The
show is very funny throughout with cutesy humour and of course missing
parts of young girls clothing as Negi’s spells “back fire” and create
awkward moments and a lot of laughter for the audience. Naturally the
girls have trouble realising that a 10 year old is their teacher and
this also provides some really weird moments.
The
quality of the video is similar to what one would find on the television
and the ratio is also 4:3 with the option of both English and Japanese
audio. There are image galleries here and character profiles and
trailers, not really much to get into.
There are some really neat characters in this series and the animation
style is pretty decent. The story is a little slow to get going with so
many characters involved, but once it does, the kids adventures are
pretty cool.
Fans
of the manga from which this anime is derived be aware that whilst it
loosely follows the same route, it is edited down somewhat in terms of
content and the storyline does differ. It’s still a cool experience
though and one that I can recommend for a light hearted laugh. There are
six discs in the series and six episodes on this disc. |
