Only in Japan can you release half a movie and still expect people to go buy the full movie on DVD.

I really feel like only Shaft gets away with this kind of thing...

Maybe because they've been doing this for almost 7 years, fans are now just immune to all these...

(*sigh) Being Shaft fan is suffering.

Very good, very good indeed. Disaster avoided. 40 minutes is NOT a movie, I don't care what country you are from. 40 minutes is your average broadcast TV show. Nice to see it booted up to the borderline 84 minutes.

So wait. Shaft pulled a Shaft and fixed the Blu-Ray release?

That's fucking hilarious!

Indeed, despite my earlier statement.

That's SHAFT we're talking about.

Wow :D I cant wait for this to be release on DVD and someone to sub it :D

Typical SHAFT.

They generally remove all of the QUALITY and add in extra detail to every DVD/ Blu Ray release.

40 minutes of fanservice? ;D

I didn't like the fact that the movie was released before it was ready. I really looked forward to the Negima movie, and I am glad that it will at least be a decent length when I get around to watching it.

I enjoyed the OVAs, and I hope I will enjoy the movie as well.

Also: School Festival adaptation where ;_;.

Perhaps studios could do what Bones(?) did to FmABH; re-do the series and make it awesome.

I would LOVE to see the School Festival animated, or a remake of the Negima anime. As long as they put effort into actually making it good. I'd rather have no more adaptations than to have a bad / average one released.

Wait, does this mean the ones they released at the movie theaters is only 40 mins?
