By the way, I think a more elegant name fits her better; Negira just doesn't have that sophisticated feel to it. Negi...Nagi...Negira...what's next, Negiraga? XD Quote:

Not trying to make you feel worse, but the Negima scanslation comes out at a much slower pace compared to most Chinese speed-scanslators since only two people are working on it. The raw is usually released around Friday, and the scanslation comes out on Wednesday, but hey, can't sacrifice quality for the sake of speed! Quote:
Those other major Chinese scanslation groups doing JUMP series are super fast because they get their raws earlier and have much larger teams dedicated to each series...that and they have very impressive work ethics. |

Well, Makie gets alot of airtime (so-to-speak) in the chapters of volume 7, so it is no surprise that she's on the cover page as well.
If you read the previous volumes, you would also know that Makie is actually the most popular girl - Asuna is second behind her. |

Actually, I recall Asuna was second only once (in the 2nd round behind Makie)--Nodoka was second in the 1st round of voting followed by Asuna third. And of course, Setsuna owned everyone in the 3rd round...
During the 1st and 2nd round of voting, Makie won even though the only time she actually played an active role was the library expedition...and even then she was more of a side character in the Baka Rendan. But of course, I'm suuuuuuuure her character design had nothing to do with her amazing popularity. |

I buy the Taiwanese publication anyways, so I gotta wait a month at least before I can get it on my "hand." I don't think such a blue background has ever appeared in any of Akamatsu's single books...this is definitely a must-get. . Oh, and Ayaka's Contract Card is out with the December character CD: Spoiler for Gothic Lolita?!:
Interesting; I've always envisioned Ayaka in fancy dresses, but not like this! Although Ayaka can fight on par with Asuna when they are fooling around, I don't think she'll be portrayed as a front-line character, so flowers as weapon seem to be fitting for a support type character. Speaking of companions, I was quite glad that Negi leaned towards the same path as Nagi (magic swordsman) back when Eva mentioned Negi's choice for battle type...had he gone with pure mage, then Asuna is pretty much a lock for his official companion and none of the support types will have a fightin' chance. >_< . I look forward to January's...Eva + ChaChaMaru + Sayo...who's going to be on the card?! Eva seems like the most logical choice based on screen time and role in the story, but kissing his surrogate mother?! Negi, you've gone too far! XD . Source: StarChild Records |

I wanna see Ayaka take a more prominent role in the story anyway. BTW, has anyone actually translated the latin and worked out what powers each card bestows? Quote:

Florens = blooming/in bloom, flowering; flowery, bright/shining; flourishing, prosperous Burgenis = citizen and evolved into bourgeois for the french was above the normal 'working class'. Since Citizens in Rome were the only ones capable of owning property/voting, etc... But a large portion of them weren't. So looking at Ayaka as being rich and high in society I think this may be a kind of "flowering Rich Girl?" or just "Prosperous Woman" |
