		So now we can confirm that Negi is a magical prince...of Mars no less. Can we also call him a prince of Wales?__________________

		Depending on whether they're public transport or not, he may be a prince of those flying whales...
 I guess I should add that I'm suddenly having mental images of a Negima fusion with John Carter of Mars, with Negi in a sword harness and bouncing around like crazy...

		Del Rey Volume 24 Out
		
		
		11-09-2009, 03:04 AM 
	 
		Again, the Nibleys provide us with a much better translation than that unfortunate two-volume lapse.  Del Rey ought to retranslate those and offer to exchange 
them for our old copies.
 
Of note: the fanscans appear to have botched something important.  Asuna is not unique, the Vespertatia royal family has been producing occasional 
magic-cancellers for generations.
 
Of sillier note: Paio Zi hijacked the Lexicon Negimarium to give us a lengthy digression on the mystic and archaeological significance of her favorite subject 
-- boobies. ^.^
 
Speaking of which, Bob, that Barsoom fusion?  It's not Negi  I'm having images of bouncing around like crazy in traditional Martian costume.

 Y'know, I was going to post something similiar to this... then I realized that, if cross-world travel is possible, half the girls would rip my lungs out for suggesting it.

		Aquastar has released theirversion of Another World episode 1.
 
 Frankly, I'm not thrilled with the pacing of the OADs.  It's always either too fast or too slow.  But a
 halfway decent translation should mitigate the worst of it...

		Nodoka doesn't know when to stop, does she?  Mental peeping tom.    
...Godel, you bastard.  Punch him again, Negi!
 
Daughter of the Creator... implying that the Mage of the Beginning is Negi's and Asuna's great-to-the-god-only-knows-what-number grandfather?
 
Eva-chan didn't know?  Oo, she's pissed.

		Y'know, I'd been waiting to see how they were going to prevent Jack from derailing the plot without being a total ass (more than he isalready)....seems Fate's about to deliver on that.

This is kind of alarming... if what I think might be happening is happening, then, well, no one from Mundus Magicus can fight Fate at all.

 Oh, dear.
 
Where could they possibly  find somebody from some other world who's powerful enough to stand up to Fate?

My first thought was more along the lines of "He has a KEYBLADE?!  $#@&.".

		*whistles*
 Fate definitely pulled out the trump card here. Amusingly, this makes Negi and his class even more important than they were before as they're. Ot native
 and thus immune to Fate's ability. Even Nodoka, amusingly.

		And again with the James P.Hogan.  Is Akamatsu a fan, or is this the translators' doing?
 
 You never know how much you need arms until they're gone... o.o;
 
 Things are getting POLITICAL here.  That's not good.
 
 And Negi... is going to sign... but...
 
 IT'S COLUMBO TIME.  Jusht one lasht thing...
 
 And yeah, it's as bad as we thought.
 
 One in eighteen people?  Screw that.
 
 ...Holy crap.  You think you have the cheat codes to the magic world, Fate?  Rakan knows the cheats for REALITY.  God mode will NOT save you.

		It's always interested me how much play Hogan gets in Japan.  Inherit the Stars showed up in Genesis Climber Mospeada, The Two Faces of Tomorrow was made into a manga... now this.

		Can any of you read the small text balloon halfway down page seven, on the left side?  (Link )  It's too small for me to read normally, and when I try to zoom in, it gets too blurry.
