MSN:[Character] #12 Ku Fei

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l118/Talhoino/Ku%20Fei/fei.jpg
Negi Love Ranking: 6th (Point Total: 48). Kū is the energetic and joyful kung fu fighting Chinese girl of class 3-A. From her initial appearance, she was identified as a foreigner by fellow classmate Chisame. However unlike those intentionally hiding who they were, Kū is one of the few who embraces who she is as opposed to hiding it like other of the accused. The most obvious attribute of her foreign appearance is her darker than average skin: although not as dark as Mana's and Zazie's, her skin is slightly darker than most of the other girls in the class. This dark skin is not natural of the typical Han Chinese of paler color (such as Chao), making her known as from another part of the country.

Similar in her ethnicity is Kū's knowledge of her home language of Chinese. Although there is a similarity in certain means between Chinese and Japanese, it is this language barrier (as well as her own hyperness) holding her back from succeeding in class. This failure of language has made Kū "Baka Yellow" of the "Baka Rangers" (or Dummy Force in the FUNimation dub) study group, since she can't concentrate much on her studies as she is still learning Japanese. Although Akamatsu does depict Kū knowing the basics of the language, she does add the ending of "aru" (アル, "aru"?) in katakana to the end of her sentences to address her depiction of the language. This depiction of Kū speech has made it harder to translate into other languages without giving off similar meaning. While early English renditions of the Del Rey English manga had Kū speak more naturally, later volumes depicted Ku Fei's Chinese accent is rendered as "pidgin" English. This decision was made by Negima's adaptor Trish Ledoux, notable for doing similar to Chinese character Shampoo in Ranma ½.[1]. Due possibly to her language barrier, Kū tends to take a strange perspective and thought path on various matters compared to other students in the class.

Outside her foreign heritage and idiocy, Kū is known as one of the most powerful fighters both in the class as well as in the school. Within 3-A itself, she is identified as the fourth strongest after Setsuna Sakurazaki, Mana Tatsumiya and Kaede Nagase. While she is extremely skilled and knowing in Chinese kenpo style martial arts, Kū's weakness is identified by her lack of knowledge and control of magic. Whereas Setsuna, Mana and even Kaede know of magical skills and combine them with fighting ability, Kū's strength comes merely from her own ki control and skill. Yet what she lacks in magical ability does not take away from Kū's skill as she shows both abilities in fighting as well as in the manipulation of any weaponry given to her, including knives, swords and Chinese war hammers.

While Kū is seen as merely fourth strongest in 3-A, she still stands way above many of the other fighters she faces at Mahora Academy. In the year prior, she won the martial arts tournament at the academy. Because of this, she is challenged day after day by many powerful students attempting to prove their own might, yet always getting knocked down by the Chinese martial artist. Kū's athleticism and skill does not just exhibit itself on the battlefield: when challenged in a bowling match without ever playing the game before, she scored a perfect 300 on her first try! It is this skill and ability that makes her become noticed by others willing to learn to fight, including her own teacher Negi Springfield. It is probably because of her superior skills and mastery that Mana admits to Chao that "as a normal human, Ku is without a doubt the strongest".

Outside of class, Kū Fei works at the Chao Bao Zi Chinese restaurant cart run by her friend and fellow "Chinese" student Chao Lingshen. Besides working as a waitress at the restaurant, Kū has a voracious appetite for the food served there, particularly Chao's specialty nikuman dumplings that she even eats during class. Due to their similarities, Kū and Chao are great friends and allies in the class. Unfortunately their friendship only goes so far: whenever Chao or her assistant Satomi need a guinea pig for their new inventions, Kū finds herself stuck as their volunteer. Chao uses it to get what she wants from her friend while Kū thinks its just inhumane.

Official Pactio Of Ku Fei
COMING SOON HOPEFULLY

Role In Story
Kū Fei's interaction with the class starts from early on with her placement in the infamous "Baka Rangers" group as "Baka Yellow". Though mostly there due to her lack of Japanese knowledge, she does assist Negi through this in a couple of early encounters including against the guardians of Library Island. Always trying to stay in the limelight, Kū does show her enthusiasm for her teacher whenever he's around, helping her out or not.

Although initially not involved in the problems Negi and his classmates encounter through their trip to Kyoto, she soon does find a place amidst the chaos. At first, she takes part in the "Kiss Negi" contest run by gossip Kazumi, hoping to get her first kiss out of it. While she does get a kiss, its mostly from one of Negi's paper clones leading to a "bad Pactio" card. She learns of Negi's secret when she, Mana, and Kaede helped Negi, Asuna, and Setsuna rescue Konoka during the Kyoto field trip. Although she seemed to show her power against many of the monsters summoned to the final battleground, they were considered much weaker compared to many of the others defeated by her more powerful peers.

After the Kyoto trip, she becomes Negi's martial arts instructor at the latter's request. Taking on the silly guise of "wise master" Kū Rōshi (wearing a more traditional outfit as well as a white beard), she teaches Negi the basics of ki and technique to allow him to pass Evangeline's test in order to study under the more powerful vampire.

During the Wilhelm incident, Ku Fei was one of many girls who were initially kidnapped by Wilhelm and the Slime sisters, only for them to escape and assist Negi in the battle, with her rescuing Chizuru from the watery cell that she was being held in.

Although assisting her class during the Mahora festival, her main concern was repeating victory in the Mahora Martial Arts tournament, this year held by her friend Chao (while using it as a ruse for her own plans). Facing Mana in combat, she is forced to use all her skill before barely defeating her. But the victory came at a cost: breaking her left arm while fighting against Mana, she was forced to immediately drop out; her arm was later healed by Colonel Sanders.

Even though Kū was Chao's best friend in the entire class, she remained oblivious towards the latter's action to changing the future until it was nearly too late. After being the first to discover Chao leaving the school, she ends up arriving late for her farewell party and gave her the most honorable words of goodbye in the class. Later, she and some other girls were trapped with Negi in the future after Chao had succeeded in revealing magic to the world. During the battle of Mahora, along with Haruna, she stays behind to fight the Chachamaru clone and two other robots as Negi keeps moving towards Chao. Yet after the battle was finally over and she was on her friend's opposite side during the entire plan, Chao did give a tearful farewell to Kū as she departed back to her home for the final time.

She is a member of Negi's White Wing and accompanied him to England and to the magical world. However, they are attacked by Fate and his comrades. Ku Fei manages to fight effectly during the assault, even managing to nearly blind side Fate with a powerful Ki beam. However, despite her and the efforts of the other fighting members of the White Wing, Fate manages to destroy the magical gateway. This causes a massive explosion of displacement magic to be released, scattering her and the rest of the group all across the magical world. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

[Twi]

She was the sixth on the list

[tsunade666]

You really did a great job for the introduction of the character so detailed.
To bad not many people are discussing like before.

[kaverinebonhands]

More response than my RP thread has gotten Tsunade666!
Yes I'm talking to you specifically!

[Magister Magi 13]

Actually everybody of the Negima fans of OM are still here. It's just that the creation of the sub-forum made the fan scatter everywhere only to the threads they like. Check the other threads and you might find others who you recognise.

I'm actually surprised that the Baka-Yellow actually got the sixth in the Negi love ranking. Not a bad score at all, for someone who is still being a baka still doesn't know whether she love him or not.

[Twi]

The sub forum makes it feels weird.

[Magister Magi 13]

The sub forum makes it feels weird.

No lies there. Looks like everybody are agreeing with each other that the sub-forum isn't a very good idea.

Wait...what? Props for the descriptions, but I thought that Ku could not use ki before she trained at eva's(even though it's kinda stupid, there are more internal/chi based chinese martial arts then japanese). I didn't know that Setsuna, Kaede and Mana used magic power O.o

Setsuna can use some eastern magic and Kaede uses a ninjutsu in place of magic, and Mana has a pactio card (which means that she might be able to do some sort of magic).

[OHNOES]

Setsuna can use some eastern magic and Kaede uses a ninjutsu in place of magic, and Mana has a pactio card (which means that she might be able to do some sort of magic).

I'm pretty sure everything Kaede and Setsuna do are ki-fueled and not magic-fueled.

[Ectheliontachio]

I'm pretty sure everything Kaede and Setsuna do are ki-fueled and not magic-fueled.

Setsuna uses magical charms to keep away Shikigami (not that they help very much. It's hard to remember though because she doesn't use it very often.

But you are probably right about Kaede.

[Twi]

The higher level eastern spells need some magic, it was kotaro or chamo who said it

[Ectheliontachio]

If Ku Fei ever does get magic powers she'll probably become quite overpowered (since it would probably take her 5 seconds to get good with magic).

[Magister Magi 13]

Think about it. Ku powered up both by Ki and Magic. How awesome would she be? I think it would be a blast! :)

[OHNOES]

Well first she has to master ki control though

[Magister Magi 13]

I think she already can. She just doesn't use it . . . probably.

[OHNOES]

Well first she has to master ki control though

Middle panel

http://aycu22.webshots.com/image/42381/2001157969746231531_rs.jpg

it may be a bit small, but Ku says she's still a newbie when it comes to ki

[Magister Magi 13]

Even for a amature, looks like she manage to graps hold the technique very quickly to be able to go that far. So, no surprise if she can master it now. :)

[Ectheliontachio]

Ku Fei's biggest weakness (other than lack of magic abilities) is that she has to get in close to really do significant damage to an opponent (Similar to Neji from Naruto). Setsuna has her ranged Ougi's, Mana has her guns (and coins), and Kaeda has Kunai and shurkien. Ku Fei's best option would be to learn either instant movment so that she can easily get in close to an enemy, or to learn Takahata's iaiken so that she can strike from a distance (or both, that would always be nice:)).

well since she specialize in grapple techniques she would have to get in close doncha think? if you take a look at the fighters you mentioned, they are all using weapons which gives them ranged attacks. and the only times she used a weapon is during kyoto arc and the festival tournament. but if she uses weapons, she should have a short to medium ranged attack. her spear cloth and the twin swords she gave to chao. also in magic arc,
she still have her cloth spear as a weapon. http://www.onemanga.com/Mahou_Sensei_Negima%21/188/08/
as for instant movement...http://www.onemanga.com/Mahou_Sensei_Negima%21/94/14/

as for instant movement...http://www.onemanga.com/Mahou_Sensei_Negima%21/94/14/
bySakura of the CrimsonSky
that was an martial art not instant movment
god ranged weopons for ku would be kishot or an speer or an artefakt i know that her pactio card shows a pair of tonfa
that dosent mean that will be her weopan i just remebert misiora when every whon was thinking the cross in the back of her card will be her weapon

[Ectheliontachio]

Damn, I forgot about the instant movment equivilant.

And Sestuna's ranged are mostly from her fighting style (although she does have her pactio artifact). But other than that your right, those characters do mostly use weapons.

of topic but misora is a mage right. the cross might be like a medium for her to use magic. like a wand or something like the ring that eva gave negi so he wont need his staff to cast magic.

[Twi]

Who's misora mage contractor? Also Ku fei would learn Ouick move(Instant Movement) with ease since she helped negi leearn his.

[Magister Magi 13]

Actually it's Kotarou that suggest Negi to learn instance movement and Ku takes up a little bit. But if an amature like Negi can do it then Ku should be able to do it too.

I think Misora made a contract with Kokone, the small dark skin girl that's always hang around with Misora.

[tsunade666]

yes
misora did and I think kokone is her master and misora is her partner.

About the instant movement before I think kuf can't use it because it needs either ki or
magic and we know that ku doesn't use ki or magic before and she is still in training
with ki its just that she is strong and fast enough.

[Magister Magi 13]

Despite no Magic power or Ki. She's already a perfect fighter. She kick asses!! :D

[Twi]

Despite no Magic power or Ki. She's already a perfect fighter. She kick asses!! :D

True

[Magister Magi 13]

I'm not even sure whether she need to get stronger or not. I mean she's currently deffinately stronger than Negi, and that already means she can beat the hell out of a lot of people already.

[Twi]

There's no harm in her becoming stronger than she is....Too much power can corrupt, but too little and you can't protect those close to you. This theory applies to negi and setsuna as well. Ku fei has a decent heart so power won't consume her.

[Ectheliontachio]

I'm not even sure whether she need to get stronger or not. I mean she's currently deffinately stronger than Negi, and that already means she can beat the hell out of a lot of people already.

As strong as she is she is still probably the weakest out of the 4 martial artists (Setsuna, Mana, Kaeda, and Ku Fei), although probably not by much.

I still love her though.:D

[Magister Magi 13]

The Baka yellow is deffinately kawaii in way! :) Let us support her to be much stronger than she is now! Fei-buchou! I shall support you to achieve your ultimate goal! (whatever that is) :D

[Twi]

Despite no Magic power or Ki. She's already a perfect fighter. She kick asses!! :D

Look at her hands on the second panel http://www.onemanga.com/Mahou_Sensei_Negima%21/188/08/

That's ki

[arjay2813]

and she has only just begun using it, i cant wait until she's proficient with it. she's probably w/one of the other fighters learning to control it (kaede is who i'd put my money on)

[Magister Magi 13]

Deffinately Kaede. Which is way too obvious.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

ku wore the same dress back when she fought against mana. i want to see her use ki while using her cloth spear technique.
btw, is there a difference between chi and ki because ku fei might have master chi already and now learning ki.

[Magister Magi 13]

What's chi?

But I think she should use her technique on a real spear! I think that would be much cooler! :)

[jakerose20]

What's chi?

Qi (spelled in Mandarin Pinyin romanization), pronounced IPA: [tɕʰi], also ch'i (in Wade-Giles romanization) or ki (in Japanese romanization), is a fundamental concept of traditional Chinese culture. Qi is believed to be part of every living thing that exists, as a kind of "life force" or "spiritual energy". It is frequently translated as "energy flow", or literally as "air", "breath", or "gas". (For example, "tiānqì", literally "sky breath", is the ordinary Chinese word for "weather"). In Mandarin Chinese it is pronounced something like "chee" in English, but the tongue position is different. (See Media:Difficult Sounds.GIF.)


Martial arts
Qi is a central concept in many Chinese, Korean and Japanese martial arts. While a traditional Neo-Confucian explanation of the principle is given in most martial art schools, many New Age-oriented or neo-ninja schools approach the subject from a more syncretist point of view, especially in the west.

The spiritual concept analogous to Chinese ki appears in the martial arts, such as Japanese aikido (See Ki Society). The Korean system of hapkido, although a different martial art, shares the same characters as pre World War II aikido (合氣道). The character for 'ki' remained the same until 1946 when the character for ki was simplified in Japan. In hangul, the indigenous Korean system, hapkido would be rendered '합기도'.

The concept of aiki as occurring when the character ai (合), representing harmony, together, or joining is combined with the character for ki and is often interpreted representing a combining, blending or coordinating of energy or a principle of non-contention of forces.

Most systems which incorporate the idea of ki believe that a practitioner may harness the energy stored in a special point in the lower stomach referred to as tan t'ien (丹田) in Chinese, tan den (丹田) in Japanese, tan jon (丹田 or 단전) in Korean and dan tian (ตันเถียน) in Thai, and utilize this energy in their martial technique, usually by employing special breathing techniques also found in the Buddhistic meditation practises common to these countries.

Most long term or professional martial arts practitioners report that the practice of building qi via breathing exercises, deep relaxation and meditation practices causes profound physiological changes that enable special martial arts skills. After sufficient practice an ability to feel the qi develops. Sensations such as tingling, warmth and heaviness of the limbs are common. With continued practice the martial artist is able to gradually gain control of these sensations and invoke them at will. In T'ai Chi, for example, one goal is to "sink" or accumulate the qi to the navel area, experienced as a strong sensation of warmth and heaviness, similar to the sensation one feels when an elevator stops. After that, the ability to "circulate" the qi develops, where the martial artist feel warm waves of qi energy moving through the body in harmony with the graceful T'ai Chi movements. Practitioners able to experience these sensations find their sense of touch is enhanced, along with dramatically improved balance and coordination. These skills then enable improved martial arts performance.

[tsunade666]

Most likely she learns how to use chi before because their is a scene before that some glow emits from capt fei hands despite the fact that she still doesn't know how to use ki.

In short they're the same thing, but different names depending on where you are. You do your research.

[tsunade666]

well if you put it that way it seems the same.... chi and ki but its
strange.... knowing its the same then how can capt fei use it before if she is just training
to master it?
or its just impact before that just look like glowing hands but not?
maybe I will put my bet on the 2nd one.

[Magister Magi 13]

I think she was training to try to master it too, if Chi and Ki are the same thing.

[Ectheliontachio]

Chi, Ki, Qi, and Chakra are all the same thing (the body's life energy), at least in real life, I don't know about in Negima.

And chi is what traditional martial artists use in many of their techniques (I should know).

So you can use chi ?

[Magister Magi 13]

Now chakra is something off topic. It only exist in Naruto so it should be kept with Naruto itself.

[Ectheliontachio]

So you can use chi ?

I have just a little bit of experiance with chi. I'm only a First Dan so I can't do some of the stuff that the really high rankers can. But I've felt several chi based techniques. I have, however, been pressure point knocked out several times by my Sensei (and done it a few times myself).

I should try to learn it, how does it feel ? And in the spirit of the subject I wonder if Ku fei is right now and with who?

[Magister Magi 13]

I don't do martial arts anymore. So I have no experience what so ever.

[Ectheliontachio]

I should try to learn it, how does it feel?

The feeling of it depends on the technique. Making a chi ball, for instance, feels like holding a two magnets of the same polarity next to each other (it also feels warm). On the other hand, getting pushed or pulled by chi (which is not so much a fighting technique as it is an exericise) feels exactly like your being pushed or pulled by something (kind of self-explanitory). Using chi for combat is somewhat different (and is both easier and harder to learn how to do).

I don't do martial arts anymore. So I have no experience what so ever.

It's something that you would only find in the old traditonal styles (the best, in my humble opinion). Even then most of those styles don't start teaching it untill you've had lots of experience.

What martial art are you taking?

[Magister Magi 13]

Now this is way off topic.

[Ectheliontachio]

What martial art are you taking?

The martial art that I study is called Ryukyu Kempo. It is the original, unwatered down, version of modern Karate. When it was created the original Okinawan masters took much insperation from both traditional Chinese styles and medical practices, and from Japanese styles such as traditional Jujutsu and Kenjutsu, and combined it with their own style (called Te). You won't find many orginizations that practice it today. The best orginizations to join woul be either Dillman Karate International (which is what what I'm in) or Kyusho International.


Now this is way off topic.

Damn, your right:o.

[Magister Magi 13]

Back to the original topic, shall we?

[Twi]

Back to the original topic, shall we?

Fine

[tsunade666]

Well you guys are talking miles away from the topic but not totally because of the chi and ki at first but then again start interviewing someone in the way of martial arts and chi thats when its starts to go off topic completely.

Its good dark isn't here or its will be a sermon time again.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

hope ku's pactio gets redesigned. instead of tonfas, she'll get a pair of chinese twin swords.

you can create a martial arts thread in general chit chat.

[tsunade666]

chinese twin swords?

but her specially are spears right?

Why just create a pactio card for spear.

Her style involve the name god of spears or something like that.

(doesn't remember fully but its been said when the ero brat and setchan fought.)

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

i think she specialize in all weapon types. maybe more experienced with chinese twin swords. remember she gave chao her master's twin swords. and i think it was mentioned that they were given only to the best of disciples.

also its spear cloth technique. even though i think she knows how to use a spear she havent actually used on yet.

[tsunade666]

I don't know...
I will try to find the exact page but when negi is using his staff agains setchan she said something about spears.

[jakerose20]

I don't know...

i rember both the swords and spear in the manga setsunas fight and chao farwellparty

but i think the spear would be better because thats something you havent seen that often in manga like swords

[Twi]

I don't know...

Shinso or god spear was the name of one of the practictioners of negi's style of martial arts. So negi is adept at spears and hand to hand

[Magister Magi 13]

Shinso huh? Not a bad name. But Negi still once had yet to use a spear but did use his staff as a mimic of a spear during the Mahora tournament fight when he fight against Setsuna.

[Ectheliontachio]

I would be more interseted in a pactio that gives her access to all the different weapon's that she is proficient in. Maybe something similar to Raken's pactio.

[arjay2813]

it'll probably up her ki abilities or something since i think she's the strongest physical fighter (kaede has secret ninja abilities, setsuna has hanyo abilities, mana has some magic bullets & i think guns; which all increase their abilities). oh well, we'll see when we see.

speaking of negi's staff, he probably cant summon like when he lost it in book 8 for distance, so i wonder who has it right now, maybe fate will give it back in the end, or at least at the end of the current arc

[jakerose20]

.

what makes you say that?

do you belive in the yaoi ending?

negi defeats fate bye making a pactio with him

[tsunade666]

thats ridiculous most ridiculous ending I ever heard.

That will ruin negima and if it happens I will curse negima and ken to death.

Just thinking gives me creeps.

[Magister Magi 13]

Although pactio doesn't need to be done just by kissing. There're other way to do it (which I'm not very certain of). But I so don't want that to happen. I detest Yaoi. And I don't want it to happen in such a good serie like this. If it does, I'll join tsunade in cursing Ken and this serie.

I also agree. Yuri=okay, Yaoi=No

Oh H€ll no. Fate gets his @$$ kicked for everything he's done( unless he's hypnotied or being controlled)

[arjay2813]

all i said was that negi would get his staff returned by fate, since i think it adds some power and fate will probably eventually want to fight him one on one as equals, using the staff to help w/the equalizing. who the h*ll thinks this'll be yaoi? only guy negi might pactio w/is kotaro which i doubt, and even then it would be a blood-share pactio (since kotaro wants to show his strength and that would, in his eyes at any rate).

idc if a series is yaoi, yuri, non-romance, straight, or w/e, but this one is NOT yaoi

[Ectheliontachio]

I'm just going to asume that from are universal hatred for yaoi and acceptance of yuri that were all guys.

[arjay2813]

i dont hate yaoi, i just dont need it from anime/manga since many (about 83% i think) of my friends could be called yaoi or yuri. i just think akamatsu ken isn't really into it and wont make negima that kind of manga, possibly yuri w/konoka and setsuna though

cant wait for ku to return, she's so funny

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

go create a yaoi thread in the debate forum or in otaku chat since you guys are so interested.

[tsunade666]

This is becoming off topic

back to last topic

The last topic about capt fei is her ki training and how well she have mastered it.

Well seeing her in battle in the gate in magic world I could say that she
can use it well but not mastered yet.... because I think capt fei can be more
stronger than just that.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

since nodoka received a new item, ku should get a new weapon the protect herself. the only weapon she currently have is the cloth. maybe a shapeshift weapon?

[tsunade666]

an artifact?

[Magister Magi 13]

Who will she pactio with then? I don't want it to be some random guys popping out of nowhere and made a pactio with Ku (with her being the Ministra Magi). I will again, curse Ken if that happens!! >_< Although Negi or Kotarou is an exception.

[jakerose20]

can Kotarou even make a pactio he is a master of dog ghost and a ninja not a mage
post answers in the kotaro thred

[Magister Magi 13]

Oh well, I'm just saying if there is a chance for a fluke. ^_^ If not . . . well . . . Negi then. Still better than some random people.

[tsunade666]

I agree plus its got to be the ero boy because its harem max plus capt ku likes her
apprentice.

[jakerose20]

this maybye sound funny but to me she kade and mana have the most adults behavier in the manga
she likes him but she dont tell him because he is so young and she want to be his friend and not want to confuss him anymore

[tsunade666]

adult ........ku? I think kaede and mana are adult like but ku is still in the same level as
the other. Remember her rushing in getting the scrolls from kamo in love love level.
They burn it to ashes fast.

Thats not an adult like attitude at all.

[jakerose20]

she burnt it because she dosent wanted him to see it
she likes him but she dont tell him because he is so young and she want to be his friend and not want to confuss him anymore

she is not shotacon like incho

[tsunade666]

How about nodoka?

She confess to negi despite the age gap..... those that make our shy and beautiful
nodoka a shotacon?

[jakerose20]

she likes him because of his charcter not because he is a child so she isnt a shotacon
but confessing to a 10/11 old child who is your teacher isnt smart or adult but she is only 15/16 so its ok
but still thats why ku behavier is adulter than hers

[arjay2813]

if ku does get a patio, i think it may be w/setsuna, since ku has only a little ki and setsuna is a weak fighter. just have to wait and see though

[jakerose20]

lol
that was supposed to be joke right?

ok setsuna is a estern magic swordmean but it was never said that estern mages use the pactio system

[arjay2813]

lol
that was supposed to be joke right?

ok setsuna is a estern magic swordmean but it was never said that estern mages use the pactio system

no its not a joke, but i got the name wrong, i meant konoka since she already tried to make one w/setsuna (srry for the mixup, and i say try since i think negi or someone walked in on them and they didnt make one)

[jakerose20]

a that makes sence since konka is a mage but i dont know if the Weekly Shonen Magazine a alhwos to draw two kissing girls was that before in any of the series in that magazine ?

ups i can answer my on qusetion yeas in love hina motoko+su
so its possible:thumbup:

[Magister Magi 13]

Konoka and Ku? Unlikely I guess. I mean if Konoka was to make a pactio with someone, the first have to be Setsuna (in my view). And beside, if Ku does like Negi then she should do it with Negi anyway.

Still the same for me. A more calm look sometimes is much more dangerous than
the one who is emitting dark auras.

as for ku eyes, i did them like in the original page ;)

[jakerose20]

year i know you only colerd it didnt change the drawing but still its defentliy not bad

[Magister Magi 13]

No comment. Not good on commenting stuff. But I still have to say it's good overall (I think).

[tsunade666]

Back to Capt fei's topic.

[Magister Magi 13]

And who will Fei-buchou pactio with anyway. Any thoughts? I say Negi. Since she loves him but she is a baka so I don't even think she relise that.

[tsunade666]

Thats negi for sure.... their are no other guys out their for it.

[jakerose20]

And who will Fei-buchou pactio with anyway. Any thoughts? I say Negi. Since she loves him but she is a baka so I don't even think she relise that.

she relise it for sure she simply dont want to bewilder/confuse/ dazzle/(dont know the right word in englisch)him she is pretty adult

[Magister Magi 13]

And how does that being pretty adult. If she is then she should have show some more obvious expression or already making a move. It's always fun to see a character making a move on the other character.

[tsunade666]

Well age doesn't matter in love thats what people say.

And its obvious in this series age doesn't matter.

[jakerose20]

a love confess torwards a 10 years old is noting a adult would do

it wouldnt be worse since there is only 5years different between them but still,a love confess torwards a 10 years old is noting a adult would do

Didn't I say that we are never to bring up the live action Negima ever again. Why must you torment us by mentioning it?

You must not have a soul if your willing to do this.

[tsunade666]

maybe they turn into saints already for bearing to mention it.

I have died because of an hear attack seeing nodoka and negi do pactio and knowing
the negi is a cute girl plus cute nodoka........... it horrible yuri max.

grrrrrrrrrrrr! monster bakemono youkai!!! thats a freaking guy.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

oh ****, i think some of the "actress" is in this video. just kidding but the guys in this video look like they're one of the negima girls. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VeydmD-R-I check it out tsunade. its funny and you probably cant tell the difference between the ku feis.

[tsunade666]

Oh Sh*t O Sh*t F*** F*** WTF

what the hell is that.... st peter just die and now his double dead and I just descended from heaven to hell because of killing the gate guardian.

That gives me headache and stomach ache... really. Oh Sh*t

[Magister Magi 13]

I didn't even bother looking at that thing after I just read tsunade's post. Looking from that number of his swaring, I think it must be a LIVING HELL!! Am I right? tsunade.

Not a chance in h*** i'm going to look after that post

[Magister Magi 13]

Probably I'm not going to bother watching it at all. Since I want to sleep well at night.

just watch this. it's funny, and the guy with the mustache looks similar to ku fei in the live. imagine this is from a scary movie like the grudge. tsunade is just over exaggerating.

[Magister Magi 13]

Not going to bother!! Not going to bother!! (x4)

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

KU FEI is back and she can use only one punch to destroy small mountain

[Twi]

Truly impressive

[jakerose20]

the rock breaking traing fore fei looked cool but i am not sure if this really is the best way of trainging because a rock cant hit you back

[OHNOES]

Why not, a sandbag doesn't hit back and yet almost every fighter uses them.

[jakerose20]

its one thing to have a an powerfull punch and an other to have an punch that you can use in a real battel if your punch cant hit its useless
kufei new atack looked liked it need to much time to collect oneself/ concentrate

[Magister Magi 13]

Concentration leads to power? Isn't that too easy.

[jakerose20]

i am only saing that you cant use such an punch in an battel because your target wont stand still ore wont hit you back

[syler]

Concentration leads to power? Isn't that too easy.

i agree with magi..

[tsunade666]

Its good if its 2 vs 1 or ganging up battle.
Plus the number of white wings is many so I'm thinking it will be a 2 on 1 battle to even
the odds because the power gap is too big if its real.

[Magister Magi 13]

Then again. Handicaps are not fair. Not entirely fun to see an unfair fight.

[jakerose20]

i have seen a lot of one on one fights in manga group vs group should be more intersting

[Magister Magi 13]

I agree. Team vs Team are something that's very fun to watch. Wish it would happen.

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

team vs team will be better

and member from each team go to fight one on one

[Magister Magi 13]

Nice idea! Chi-u! It should happen.

[syler]

but i want to see other new power like nodoka mind reading with the ring..

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

now Nodoka has mind reader from artifact ,

the ring that can see name of other person

and trap detection

she is bit powerful

[syler]

thats why i dont agree on 1on1. nodoka is not a fighter but a support. she cant use her power if it is 1on1... kill must be killed instantly!! buwahahahaha...

[Magister Magi 13]

Her artifact doesn't bear any physical power at all (except fot the fact that Nodoka can summon multiple books and throw it with all her might, just like when Paru created the dark version of Nodoka.) So she can't kill anybody.

And can be get back to the baka-yellow already? We are off topic to Nodoka now.

[tsunade666]

The smaller books has less accurate I think because its make her concentration divided
into several people. Its not really for combat purposes.

Back to ku fei in chapter 207 her skills has tremendously increase. Her ki control
is magnificent.

[Magister Magi 13]

She reduce an entire hill to rocks!!! Now that's awesome!! :D

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

she is more powerful

i think if she training more than this she

will can break mountain will one punch

[arjay2813]

that would be impressive. it would suck for her boyfriend if they were hugging and she coughed or something though

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

if she has boyfriend he must strong like rakan

[arjay2813]

eeewww, that put a nasty pic in my mind (rakan, when chiu sees him while bathing [thank god its blurred b/c if i envisioned that i'd gouge out my eyeballs...], making out w/man-fei from the live action...the horror, the horror)

[wipioq]

Next time you have some sort of image like that in your mind, please keep it to yourself, now EVERYONE that read your post will have that image, and WHY did you even bring up the "live action" part???

[Twi]

WWWHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
No more No more

[Magister Magi 13]

FORGET ABOUT THE LIVE ACTION!!! Never brought it up!! JUST PRETEND IT NEVER EXIST!!!!

[syler]

yucks.. makes me puke. maybe opposite of ku fei personality will be good boyfriend.

[tsunade666]

Opposite attracts each other. that often happens in reality.

[Magister Magi 13]

But this is not reality. So something unexpected can happen.

[arjay2813]

please, just keep it opposites

[syler]

yup its really nice love story if you ask me.

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

ku fei with love :eek:

but i want to see it :thumbup:

[Magister Magi 13]

But up untill this point she still haven't show a single sign that she really does love Negi. So I wish something like that will appear soon! :D

[tsunade666]

I think we all know she loves her apprentice but no physical contact or rather no move yet.

[Magister Magi 13]

But I think the way that she will make a move will be pretty scarry though. :)

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

why does ku fei have O.O eyes in every chapter she's been in?

[Franckie]

But up untill this point she still haven't show a single sign that she really does love Negi. So I wish something like that will appear soon! :D

Trust me. Ku Fei really likes Negi.

The image I have spoiler-tagged is a Ken Akamatsu exclusive, "Who likes Negi the most" poll (similar to the one Chamo had made). If you look at six, you'll see "古 菲". "古 菲" is one way Ku Fei's name is written in Japanese.

hhmmm. wonder why ku fie is with them. those three i s really love negi. maybe ku fei like negi.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

古 菲 This is Chinese.

[Franckie]

古 菲 This is Chinese.
I'll admit I'm still in the process of learning the Japanese language. Anyway, is Ku Fei's name normally written in katakana? And if it is, wouldn't that make "クー フェイ" the typical way Ku Fei's name is written in Japanese?

Edit: Nevermind. I just found my answer.

[Magister Magi 13]

Ku Fei the 6th is both surprising and funny. :D I guess a lot of people does like her.

Thanks for the translation Chi-u! Some weird ranking and pretty random everywhere. But I'm glab that my fav. character Honya-chan actually took 1st place.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Isn't it funny how the quiet shy type girls are the most perverted.

[Twi]

Slightly

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Ku should be Negi's tournament partner instead of Kotaro. Master and disciple fight together using Chinese martial arts.

[Magister Magi 13]

True. But then again, Ku was found much later than Kotarou and they're short on time for any delays.

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

ku is much stronger

kaede can defeat dragon with close eyes

so i think two of them should team up with negi

setsuna come to fight tsukuyomi

[Magister Magi 13]

Logically, Setsuna and Tsukuyomi are quite even, since Setsuna also had hard time in dealing with Tsukuyomi.

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

both setsuna and tsukoyomi are shinmeiryuu sword fighter

and now ku is stay with sayo

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Ku is with Asakura's group right now, not only with Sayo.

[Magister Magi 13]

It's most likely that when anyone was found by Sayo, they'll be joining Kazumi and Chachamaru later.

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Obviously. Ku most likely used the commission she received while she worked as a body guard to buy the ticket. She kicks *** now.

[Magister Magi 13]

She gotten stronger too. And I really wonder what will she degrade to crumble next. First is a hilly rock.

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

i think if she training more than this she can destroy a large mountain with one punch

but if her enemy is very fast she will cant do anything

[Magister Magi 13]

I wonder if she can do the same time as Tsinade does in Naruto anyway. One punch and the earth spilt into two. :)

[~Chi-u_Chi-u~]

yeah so powerful

and if she hug negi what will happen

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

Ku isn't like those fake wrestlers on tv. She doesn't have bulky muscles or large body mass. She have enough speed to compliment her strength. Don't compare this to Naruto. Naruto sucks.

[Magister Magi 13]

If Naruto sucks then, why don't you just say this will be even better than Naruto. Probably Ku might even be able to degrade more than rocks. :)

[KittyXIII]

Naruto-tards

[Yuri-nechan]

Ku isn't like those fake wrestlers on tv. She doesn't have bulky muscles or large body mass. She have enough speed to compliment her strength. Don't compare this to Naruto. Naruto sucks.
why you compare feiku to werslers. this is negima

[Sakura of the CrimsonSky]

I'm saying that she's fast and strong.

[Magister Magi 13]

She definately stronger than ordinary human. Wrestlers are no match for her.

[syler]

even people that uses magic has no match for her.

[Magister Magi 13]

Heck, she'll kick all of their asses. Hardly anybody will want to stand in her way now.
