| So UQ Holder turned out to be JC Staff and not Shaft. Kinda relieved, this gives us hope for Kino no Tabi. Dont let me go 0/2. But JC Staff is a great studio anyways and we have JC in house staff so its not going to be those throwaway shows. |
| Read some manga excited for this |

| And the best possible choice for studio have been chosen. |
 Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together. |
| I wonder if people who hasn't read the original series will understand the anime? |
| Sup... |
DatRandomDude said: Im going to be that idiot who usually ask this question this time : Do i need to watch/read Negima before watching this ? in early series? not really... however, it become more and more important later on, even become main plot... so reading the manga (just ignore anime alltogether IMHO) is really recomended.. but if you really didn't give a damn about plot and previous series character, you can go stright away since in the end, the main POV is still new character and it keep retelled that way... _____________________________________ anyways, the studio pick is plesent surprise... thou it mean unlikely to be long run (just hope seasonal break)... but still... can't expect much tho after betrayed 2 times... |

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion. http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30 It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser.

| I'm excited for it to be animated after reading all the current chapters in the manga. I don't think anything seemed out of place without watching the other ones. |

Zapredon said: Is there any relationship with the original Negima? Takes place in the same universe, also pretty much a sequel to Negima but with different main characters this time around, though many previous characters will make appearances later in UQ Holder's story. Takes place a bit over 70 years after the events of Negima(manga), iirc? If you consider starting Negima, I would recommend reading the manga over watching the TV anime seasons since they kinda do their own thing partway through. |

I did read the original Negima manga before. Didn't know there's sequel. Btw, who did Negi ended up in the end again? I don't think they show it in the original manga. Can't remember. |

| I so cannot wait! about time they give an announcement. |
 |
| I'm actually gonna miss Shaft, the fight scenes they did for the OVA's were real nice. I like JC but I don't really have much knowledge of their action based adaptions. Index and Shana being the only 2 that come straight to mind and I hope UQ is nothing like their style as nice as some scenes were in Railgun, UQ/Negima fight scenes should be far more fast pace. And too the people asking, having knowledge of the Negima series is pretty important to the series. It might seem alright for the few early bits but once the series starts rolling, references, characters, and key points from Negima will be thrown into the fray leaving you clueless what importance they hold, characters being a big point as several key and main characters are from Negima. |
| I barely even read mangas and if the Negima animes isnt following the manga, well, f thats an easy skip for me. |

Tried checking beforehand but your list's private, sorry :P Hmm... Don't think they ever said in Negima. Even in UQ Holder up to the current chapter, there's been no clear answer as to who he ended up with. I'm just assuming that'll be explained later, hopefully lol |

SkyDrop said: BTW, guys who read manga upto latest chapter, how many episode can we expect? I think it should NOT to be less than 24. 2 cour would be nice and wouldn't be a surprise from JC. It should have enough material for at least 3-4 cours, with recent chapters becoming double the amount of pages since it turned into a monthly manga. Though I feel like the anime won't do as good as I would like it too, since some people aren't gonna bother reading Negima. I'm sure there will be a lot who just go and watch UQ without bothering too. |
| Think this kinda needs to be a 2-cour to be worthwhile. Takes quite a while before it really gets good tbh |
  |
| I really hope this will be a 2 cour. A 1 cour adaptation would just be a waste of time. |

| SO EXCITED FOR THIS KEN AKAMATSU'S MANGA ARE LIKE MY FAVORITES too bad all their adaptions are trash... I hope this doesn't get their treatments and get a shitty anime original story/ending. The shaft OVA's for Negima were great, but both the main adaptions were trash. No high hopes for the anime series, but excitement none the less... I would like a longer series though, and I do hope the action scenes are good. Fights later in the series look great and have a great feel of epicness to it, I hope that goes well! |

"If taking responsibility for a mistake that cannot be undone means death, it's not that hard to die. At least, not as hard as to live on." |
| With Children of the Whales also airing during Fall and with how this key visual looks here, I think it's obvious which show JC Staff is putting more effort into. Which is a shame because UQ Holder really needs some good animation for the fights it has. But we'll see. I really doubt they'd do two 2 cours shows though. |
 |
| Wooot, this gets me hyped regardless even though I don't really like UQ Holder. Hopefully Mahou Sensei Negima gets a real chance at having a great anime adaptation. Also hope that this would give action anime a real kickoff, I haven't really spotted any great action anime in a while. |

| Just realised I haven't read the synopsis for UQ Holder, how old is Negi in this series xD I'll find that out once I get onto UQ Holder, guess I need to read Negima a bit more often. |
| Looks like a generic forgettable harem from the mid-2000s |
 |
| Well Touta is voiced by Yuka Takakura in the anime, I was always through he will be voiced by Sลichirล Hoshi because his voice is suiting Touta's personality in my opinion, still hope Mrs. Takakura can did a good voice to him and the old cast's voice actor like Rina Satou can returned to voice Negi and others. Hoping Kuromaru was voiced by Yลซ Kobayashi (Setsuna's voice actor).

Accelerator48 said: I have one question, is this a harem? Why are you care about the harem and fan-service stuff? Only in the later story have those kind of things, in the first three arc was just a action/shounen show. |
