I'm dl'ing episode 26 as I type. I love this series! I'm a big RPG fan. I've found that those people who like RPGs are more likely to enjoy and stick through the series than those that aren't. It is slower paced than a lot of anime out there but I think that's great. Episode 25 had me gasping at the end. I couldn't believe what had happened. Of course, I really can't wait until my dl stops.Keropi wrote:1. How is .hack//ROOTS doing. How was the later part of the series?

| Anya is the only other student who graduated with Negi that has been named. A year older than Negi, they have been childhood friends for as long as they can remember, and it has been indicated that Anya helped Negi pack for his trip to Japan. During the Legendary Mahora Martial Arts Tournament, Alberio summoned her as she pointed at the cover of the books he was using as his pactio artifact. She is currently working as a fortuneteller in London, so it is unlikely that she will make any major appearances other than in flashbacks. Anya seems like a grumpy girl (often shown frowning), although that could be from the typical reaction of young people towards those they like. (Seiyū: Ryou Hirohashi, VA: Kate Bristol) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Characters_of_Negima Early in his childhood, Negi came to live with his cousin Nekane Springfield (whom he refers to as onee-chan) in a small village in the mountains of England, even as a small child, he lived pretty much alone in his uncle's guest house, with Nekane coming to care for him during her breaks while studying in Wales. While there, he befriended Anya, a little girl about a year older than him who helped him study magic, and even gave him his first training wand. Negi spent most of his time getting into trouble, hoping that if he were to get into enough trouble, the Thousand Master would come to save him. His antics ranged from being chased by large dogs to nearly drowning in a river. When Negi was four years old, his wish came true. A horde of demons appeared and attacked his village. The Thousand Master appeared just in time to save Negi from recieving a fatal punch from a demon. With a few strikes and a powerful spell, he destroyed all of the demons but the village was already in ruins and nearly all the people were already petrified. When the fighting was over the Thousand Master saw Negi and recognized who he was. Before departing, he left Negi his staff and told him to grow well and be happy. After the incident Negi, Nekane, and Anya were moved to a village of magicians in Wales, where Negi immersed himself into his studies. He graduated from Magic School at the age of nine at the top of his class of only five students to graduate that year. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negi_Springfield As far as I can remember, she only appears at the very beginning of the manga and volume 8. Here's a page from volume 8: http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/958/ ... v08xp7.jpg |

Slipped to 1/9/2007 according to www.animeondvd.comJWR wrote: Disgaea #1 12/19
Well it was just added yesterday on Roberts Anime Corner store website for 12/19 so if there was another change they might now have been notified. Some of the larger online stores get shippments earlier and can release preorders sooner unlike stores such as Suncoast who hold them till the manufacture's release date. Either way it's good that some we have been waiting for quite a while like Fate Stay Night are finally on the release list.kymaera wrote:Slipped to 1/9/2007 according to www.animeondvd.comJWR wrote: Disgaea #1 12/19
