Magister Negi Magi?

[seichan]

Negima? 1! Hey, wow! They redid Magister Negi Magi/Mahou Sensei Negima, took out some of the harem-ness, and dosed it with drama by putting Evangeline right up front.

+ Some of the best production seen thus far. Great cropping, music, palette, animation, everything.
+ Negima is still cute as a button (chibi-hari-pota..ya!)
- Not much laugh aloud comedy in the first episode
+ Hair-candy! shiny.

Quick impression~ I saw a handful of the original anime and it was cute and funny. This is similar but with ten times better production. Negima Springfield (spring onion...ha), a wizard, is sent to an all-girls school in Japan to teach. In this version, Evangeline's story has precedence. She is a vampire that has a grudge with Negima's father. Even though this is still a harem anime (something I avoid), this is one of those shows that seems to be made so well that it'll be enjoyable no matter what the genre.
