Negima: Hour 200
 
It also appears as the weapon of one of the I-Jin in the Read or Die OVA, the one they fight in the drained harbor of an Indian city.

Didn't that thing take out a spy satellite from 200 miles out?

Probably also the same rod that Monkey Boss Summon Enma becomes and that the Third Hokage uses. But all of it derives from the original one in Journey to the
West.

Indeed it does, because that particular I-Jin happens to be a clone of Tripitaka, the priest that Monkey is stuck escorting all the way to India and back.
(Clone Trip also rides a fake flying cloud in imitation of Monkey.)

And we begin with a flashback, one
that reminds me of an early Xanth novel. As much as I no longer like Anthony, his answer to this particular question has always struck me as very wise indeed.

And Evangeline's answer is remarkably similar.

Careful, Natsumi. Reaction shots like that are dangerous when you're on a flying city. Smile

Chizuru: SCARIEST ARTIFACT EVAR. o.O

...Holy CRAP, Kotaro. You just came right out and SAID it. Aren't there anime laws against that sort of thing?

Latin looks like... *squints* Actrix Timida? Makes sense.

Looks like we have our first het Official Couple of the series... Smile

I'm intrigued by the Latin phrase on the card... obviously, there's more to her than even she realizes.

Meanwhile, back at the campus...

You never ever want to hear a vampire saying "Bored now."

Wuh-oh. The big names are gathering.

...and ZOOOOOOOM shot! Dizzy. @.@;

...eh? Inbound important revelation?! Seatbelts on! Please return the stewardess to her original upright position!

OH CRAP. On a STICK.

He really should have seen that coming. Of course, it's entirely possible that it's all going JUST AS PLANNED.

To quote A Fish Called Wanda: "RE....VENGE!"

Yes, it's full-on Roaring Rampage of Revenge time for our favorite ten-year-old...

Ho Yay much, Kurt?

...One Winged Angel time? Already? And from the HERO?!

Emergency Cooldown Hug, STAT!

...and the senate's justification makes a certain amount of twisted sense. Ow.

This trope-filled commentary has been brought to you by the letter P and the numbers 3 and 7.

Let me try to parse his statements down.

"My organization is the enemy of absolutely everyone else in the world, including both the Senate I'm a member of, and Fate's group. And we want
to save the world, but I'm not telling you what from."

That sound about right?

Robkelk seems about right . . . .

For some reason, I don't think we're dealing with a good guy here. Can't think why I have that impression. :-p

Being able to read minds is not necessarily advantage when dealing with people who believe what they say is true.

So is he a fanatic?....willing to blow apart Magica Mundus in order to save it? It's also a trope that having deep held beliefs (and willing
to act on them) that's opposed to the others does not make you evil.

Should it ever come to pass that I encounter someone who says, "Very well, I will be brief," and then spends the next five minutes talking without
telling me anything of substantive value, I will cheerfully pledge him or her my absolute and unconditional support, get the hell out of there and spend the
rest of my life dodging his or her calls, if need be.
