Negima! Vol.25 Limited edition OAD box set arrived!!
On the same day that I received my new Wacom drawing tablet, I also received the limited edition OAD box set of Negima Vol.25. Apparently this is the last part of the “White wing (Ala Alba)” OAD series for the manga, so I was looking forward to watching this DVD and the the manga to see what happened next.
I always buy my Negima manga from the Japanese online bookshop called bk1.jp. They have a point system which I like that credits you 1000 yen worth of points for every 10,000 yen spent.
Anyways, I had preordered this through bk1 quite a while ago, and had been really looking forward to this day.
When I opened the manga, I noticed quite a large anouncement on the back of the cover page. Apparently the OAD series was so popular that a 2nd new OAD season was given the go ahead. Apparently this new series will cover the events that occur in the magic world. It seems that I have to start preordering some more. The website reports that the new series will be a 4 part OAD production rather than 3 parts like this one.
I have already read the manga twice. As for the OAD DVD, I watched it once so far. The video is as exected, true to the manga, and is done very well. I am very satified with it.
By the way, I found that in Vol.25, the fight that Rakan-san had was very interesting. It was a battle scene that surpassed my imagination. (^^;)
My wife would love that she is a huge Negima fan
I’m sure she would. The OAD DVDs that come in the bundle are really good. They have been following the manga very closely and really makes me want to see another Negima anime series.
Too bad they plan to do the magic world part of the series in OAD format.. It’s costing quite a bit to import these limited edition volumes of Negima, but still so worth it.
Maybe you can get preorder her the 2nd series of OADs. I hear if they get enough purchases, they’ll make either a movie or a new anime series. (^o^)
