Shaft has been doing a great job with the OADs..I really hope they do the third season (and I hope there will be a third season). If it stays true the manga, it should be excellent.

First season was okay, and the second season was completely random but awesome nonethless. I think the third season will get it completely right though (since it will most likely follow the manga)

love hina isn't worse than negima
it's pretty good expect for the storyline which is a bit .....
the character designs were also pretty good.

anyways i hope the 3rd season does goes together with the current manga. something like going to to magic world or maybe something about negi finally finding his father and asuna realizing who she really is. just something like that.

the manga would take at least 100 more chapters to end (just a rough prediction).

Well, it won't necessarily have a lot of filler, considering the manga itself is so packed with interesting little tidbits and such. It's better than cutting out stuff, right? And I'm fairly sure that if they DO make a third series, it'll be about the journey to the magical world, which is the current storyarc of the manga in japan.

I agree with Ravage,
no more SHAFT for Negima and especially No more Akiyuki Shinbo!!! The guy's antics get annoying. We get it...Pani Poni is funny, just leave it there and stop putting it in other anime.

Shaft can animate, but when it comes to design they fail at it IMO. (completely disregarding the original). Under SHAFT characters don't act like themselves, they go totally OOC.

I developed a "Like - Dislike" for some SHAFT works.
Negima being the main example.

I must say though, it is rather comical that Negima has been given so many chances to be an animated series. Here is hoping that it will do right the 3rd time around (if this is true). And I hope Funi is up for another Negima licenses.

AND ALSO KEEP THE MANGA GOING TOO! Love Negima, PLEASE... 3rd Series...

Well, if they DO make the third anime series, they'd make it more true to the manga, unlike the previous two series. It'll be like the current OVAs, Ala Alba, except there'll be more material. And it'll rock. And it's also possible that there will be a movie along with it. Considering SHAFT said they'd make a movie if the preorders for Ala Alba reached over 50,000 (which it did) and a third anime series if they reached 10,000 (which it was pretty darn close to), it's highly possible that they might do both. Boy, that was a text heavy comment.

Love Hina? That was even worse than Negima. Naru is an unbearable character, even the carbon copy Asuna is slightly better, and the rest of the cast wasn't much either.

Akamatsu is incredibly overrated, but at least Negima has some pretty decent action scenes. It's just too bad every adaptation focuses on the shitty harem comedy aspect.

Negima doesn't suck, read the manga
If you have and still think it sucks...well you have no sense at all

Yes I will, congratulations on knowing where I was quoting from ;)

Eh. Negima sucks. Itd be awesome if the guy starts working on an entirely different series now, something more akin to Love hina than a harry potter harem :/

the animation of the first 2 series were pretty good but they just really need to follow the manga instead of going off on its own that was the biggest turn off on both of the series imo.

wonder what saga they are going to do.. the festival or the current magic world.

I love the manga and have been reluctant to see the anime because I fear it's not true to the manga.

By your post I guess my fear was right.

You know, Negima is the kind of series where Filler Episodes are definitely welcomed. It has a sort of charm that Naruto, DBZ and OnePiece don't have.

I wouldn't mind if there are filler episodes, if it would help extend the series's length.

I do want the series to be faithful to the manga, and not turn out to be a cash cow.

I've been wondering when we'd get confirmation on another series. I'm definitely for a Naruto style series, the manga screams long-running anime project so lets hope for one. I'm a fan of both companies' versions; Xebec did a good job folling the manga, albeit only covering the first 6 books, but left out most of Negima's main characters. Yeah, Shaft totally did their own thing story-wise but I feel they did a better job in the character department, not to mention the fact that they actually had Setsuna involved from the start. All in all, I'm psyched no matter what the result... presuming that result is a new series.

Continuation from the OVA perhaps.

Always tought of this might happened after the OVA is aired.

I thought the first season was alright in its own merit for awhile, even though it wasn't canon to the manga. The second season I just don't remember any of it. Maybe the third time's the charm.

Wooo, Shaft produced=win,. And yeah, I know the retelling sucked, but a faithful Negima anime from Shaft would be great.

Urgh... you know that never ending shounen is a bad thing right?

6 cours worth of filler free episodes would be more then enough... 8 cours at most. Then again, the School Festival arc -did- take like, 8 volumes... lol.
