Negima 2

Finally finished this 2nd installment of the series which tells a totally different story from the 1st. I thought it started off quite well with its better animation and very strong depiction of the 1st few characters. For example, Setsuna Konoka, Asuna and especially Evangeline. The show withered at the middle, though. Just trying to make fun out of nothing and getting Negi to make pactios with the rest of the class. Getting trapped in the magical world didn't seem to bother this class much as they still went round having fun, Asuna, disappointingly, being the lamest of all... = = It was around the 22 ep that things picked up, things involving the star-crystal finally coming to light. And all's well ends well I guess.

Just that I wasn't quite satisfied with how they tried to dump all the rescuing on Negi. Takahata, Evangeline or even his sister had more power than him, but somehow they were rendered useless so that he could do what a main lead is supposed to do. Could they have been a little less obvious?

Just one more comment on how cute Evangeline was. Quite simply, for me, she stole the show. Nobody can look so cute when she's pissed~~ lol~

And one final thing i need to scream:
Not enough Setsuna X Konoka emotional scenes!!! Plain foolin around dun cut it!!! Grhhh
