i didnt read the uq holder manga at all cause it looked bad i did most of negima i think
Anno
UQ Holder is all right. Starts off with a very different feel from Negima, both Negima in the beginning and Negima by the end. Eventually Akamatsu gets serious about resolving the weird plot ball of wires that was the ending of Negima in UQ Holder, but if the adaptation is only one-cour we should probably only really get the standalone-ish stuff this season.
Yuu
Negima just gets progressively worse. I don't really like Ken as an author. Lova Hina is bad in various ways, too.
Anno
Negina got much more interesting as it went on. Eventually towards the end it got way too complex combined with the series getting axed because Akamatsu protested magazine editors and owners trying to grab more intellectual property rights for the manga in their series.
Anno
Also my video froze for a moment so I'm off time. What time you at?
Anno
jeez tilde why do you always freeze
5:00 5:05 5:10 5:20
Anno
I dunno I think my hard drive is a little wonky. It gets really slow read times every now and then. Makes gaming a little annoying.
Yuu
>>293446 My enjoyment of Negima dropped as the series went on. It lost all charm and appeal to me when it went to the lost world and got bogged down by it.
Anno
Why is rider's master so crazy
Anno
Grail wars seem to always attract problematic people.
Anno
is she dumb thats her servant
Anno
wild
Anno
>Just kills the woman on her way back to the car
Yuu
haha anarchy saber just passing through
Anno
How humble of Astolfo.
Yuu
time for mana transfers
Anno
What a mess this has become. What originally started out as a war between Red and Black with Jeanne and Sieg as free agents has now become a war between Jeanne and Shirou with Sieg and Astolfo as rogue agents. Oh and Necromancer and Mordred too maybe.
Oh speak of the devil
Anno
It feels like UTW might've gotten a different translator. At least I don't remember Mordred's tone being translated so coarsely before.
Anno
i wonder if he'll kill the kid
Anno
No Best Boy William Shakespeare this episode ;_;
Yuu
okay Did you guys want to UQ Holder?
Anno
sure might end up dropping it but we can try huh this is an actual sequel to negima?
Yuu
Yes, I will drop this very quickly if I don't like it.
orange okay lets start
Anno
How pleasant.
>>293484 Did you ignore everything I said at the start of the thread.
Anno
>>293487 i thought it was like same world and stuff didnt think they'd show negima at start
Anno
The MC is Negi's grandson.
Anno
You know I never actually watched the Negima anime seasons. I'd never heard the actual voices.
Yuu
Eve was best girl.
>>293491 It never got a proper anime. The anime was terrible.
>>293493 Yeah but she takes on a different form or something.
Anno
Well she has a very relevant role in this show so have fun.
Well you know how young boys are. They always tease the girls they love.
Anno
it looked like he had a harem in the opening
Anno
By the way, Konoe was the family name of that shrine girl who was best friends with Asuna. So Negi had a daughter, who married the son of Konoe, who's child is the MC of this series.
Also they didn't even get a male seiyuu for Negi's grown up voice.
Anno
Who did Negi marry?
Anno
Uh, there's more than one timeline and I'm not sure if who he married is consistent over them. But in one of them he confesses at least to Chizuru.
Anno
hes evillllllllllllllllllllll
Anno
I really liked Evangeline's incantation. It's nice to see it again.
Anno
Oh he got disarmed.
Anno
just a flesh wound
thees like 0% chance her dying
Yuu
It's all because she decided to cosplay as an old hag.
Anno
She mellowed out in her old age. Before Nagi/Negi she was content to be a grumpy isolated loner. But then she got involved with them and the class of students and learned to love.
Yuu
>she's chopped into 12 peices >he says "we need to call an ambulance"
Anno
Maybe it's a MAGIC ambulance!
Anno
When you're supposed to take up arms against your foe I don't quite think that's what it means.
Anno
Oiya oiya
Anno
Also the title of the series is a pun. UQ, or yuukyuu, is a way of saying eternity or immortality in Japanese. So UQ Holder is literally immoratlity holder.
Anno
wasnt so bad i like the vampire
Anno
I dont think the opening fits this show though
Anno
I don't think it particularly fits the show but I don't think it doesn't not fit it either.
Yuu
okay my internet was dead for a minute but i'm better now let's do youkai apt okay let's start!
how long is yokai >>293538 yeah i mean how many ep isodes
Anno
You got time for that Squid?
Anno
Since we're on the fourteenth episode, I imagine twenty-four/five? This show going on more than two seasons feels like a lot of material. Oh wow a new OP even.
Anno
No one seems to know how long it would be airing either. And its a novel series so there might be a lot of material to work with too.
Anno
smack
Anno
Wow is this a dark horse romantic pairing. Though he seems to hitting on all the girls at the apartment.
Anno
kuri is cute
Anno
Hase's fantasy is a little predatorial at times.
Anno
>XScast
Anno
What a useless bonus.
Anno
worth
Anno
Gaaaaaaaayy
Anno
Hase kind of feels like the kind of guy that could take over seat of main character if he exerted 10% of his real power.
Anno
She's got an Idolmaster poster on her wall.
Anno
Wow the landlord is quite the amazing person.
Anno
All the adults at the apartments seem to do is drink, lounge, and eat food.
