All Purpose Negima Fanfiction Thread

Given Akamatsu's recent handling of economics, psychology and social sciences, I don't want him even trying to write religion.

Everyone knows UQ Holder's God and Messiah is Touta anyway.

Honestly, I see Earths population of Mages doing something stupid and prompting a conflict from within before MM ever even thinks about jumping in. Finding out that Bob next door can mind woogie people and your kids school teacher can sling fireballs (not that most mages in this instance could) would probably not go down well. Give a third world country a magical disaster, and everyone else would probably freak out.

I'll be honest, Im surprised that Holder has yet to introduced a murder cult worshipping Asuna or something.

Asuna is more worthy of worship than most, to be fair. Her magic cancel thing is Kind Of A Big Deal.

Nous restons ici.

Yeah, which is why I'm vaguely surprised she herself hasen't been mentioned or has a nuch of whack jobs praising her, given that she's still keeping the world around. Best we got is Hoodie leeching off of her in the worst possible way.

Though she'd probably be more important to those on MM than earth.

Pfft. Akamatsu saw how popular Naruto was, and decided he needed to write more like Kishimoto.

Of course Asuna ain't no big deal, mate, she's a woman, don'tcha know? They've got cooties.

Like how there was that arc about Sayoko raising a zombie horde that was only stopped by the sheer hax of Kirie's power? Or the way that nameless chick in a hoodie is the current major threat? Or how Dana established her I'm-so-powerfulness by being stronger than Yukihime?

Yeah, making the female characters weak and irrelevant is not one of UQ Holder's flaws.

The female characters in Naruto aren't weak or irrelevant, though. Look at Ino and Hinata. Saved plenty of lives during the world war. Look at Tsunade. She's Hokage.

The thing is: They'll never get credit for it.

When it comes down to it, for all their awesomeness, Ala Alba never passed their name down to history.

After all... they were just Negi's girls.

Rikalous! You said something nice about UQ! Go wash your mouth out with soap right now!

Who speaks thus to me? Surely not one who, not five pages hence, would draw ideas from that book of vile darkness mortals call FATAL. To the leaden robes of the hypocrites, go ye.

While the "ministra Negi" bit was such bullshit (gosh, if only there were a better name to use for the people who made up most of Ala Alba. Maybe something Latin. With alliteration), discarding them isn't really gendered. Yukihime does it in what I recall were the very first pages.

But it is a valid point! (at least the zombie chick, I mean)

But that doesn't change anything, rikalous. After all, Evangeline was still needed to make Touta stronger.

<looks at rik's and Mage's back-and-forth>

<recalls being the ONE PERSON in the fandom that actually likes Nanoha Force despite some of its issues>

<continues watching>

And if the reason Ala Alba got left behind was because of icky girl cooties, then she wouldn't be.

That reminds me, rik - how far did you ever manage to get in your Let's Watch/Read/etc. of the Nanoha franchise? You still doing that huge-ass and widely-regarded fanfic that I've never found the time to sit down and read?

Of course Not!Evangeline didn't leave them for that reason, but I'm not talking about Not!Evangeline now am I?

One has to wonder... how the hell did Eva learn Japanese at 16, during the 12th or 13th century? From Scotland?

Oh, wait, this is one of those things...

*eats chocolate*

Most people it would be 'take a shot', but I prefer chocolate to alcohol. PLOTHOLE!

Wait. I'm confused. And I'm not sure if it's because of your wording, or because I haven't been reading UQ Holder.

The way I understand what you just said, is "Evangeline spent another half-decade or so in Scotland after sbe became a vampire, and in that timeframe somehow learned Japanese". Am I reading you right?

Yeah. Workload came down heavy on me after I got done with chapter 27, but now I've got time again I should have something up by Monday.

Your contention as I understand it is that 3-A got relegated to ignominy because they had girl-cooties. Eva had as many girl-cooties as any of her classmates but does not share their ignominy, remaining a major character even if she changed her face and name. Thus, I declare your contention false.

rikalous, you don't get it.

I'm not saying they can't be important. I'm saying they'll never be recognized for it.

What Not!Eva got for being relevant is being a incompetent wreck unable to rationally deal with Touta and depending on knee jerk reactions, and is having her entire history retconned for the sake of a romantic twist with Touta. Kirie meanwhile has a horrible personality whose only use to the story is literally dying over and over, Hoodie is a mad terrorist who may as well kick puppies for a living, Karin exists as an extension of Not!Eva with little character of her own, and Sayoko was the embodiment of Tumblr wiping out "privileged scum" indiscremintly. Lets not forget Kuro's awkward subtext.

Females can do things in the setting with some impact, but most of them are spastic wrecks. Dana is the only good example this series has as a female character who isnt off her goard. Shinobu doesn't count due to irrelevance.

So... you're totally cool with Santa?

BTW, on that game system note, currently torn between making the base stats 1-10 or 1-100. It's a question between customization and possibly empty levels for me. The former means that, under the system I'm considering, you have 65% of you maximum potential HP right off the bat. I'm operating under the assumption characters will go through the game as realistically squishy humans (most bladed weapons and guns can kill with a hit), unless you explicitly have powers that make you tougher than that...

Volunteer guinea pigs experience pool? What do you guys thing?

Santa is probably the only character handled well in Holder. Wished his arc was handeled half way decently, otherwise I'd give Holder a little slack. Well, until three chapters ago, since I'm in hiatus until the really stupid stuff is over.

I'm still baffled at how you could screw up what is basically a mash up between Metal Gear and Negima. It ain't right I tell ya.

As for the rest, it depends on how you handle it. Are your base stats mostly static, or are you constantly progressing?
