The only thing gayer than a loser anime character such as Negima, would will be a real-life Negima. With that in mind, you are free to receive this news any way you like it; but before you hump jump to any conclusion, let's be honest here and admit that the anime did have some good parts as well. About 30 good, young, juicy parts (multiplied by 2 or 3, depending on how many of their... parts you enjoyed), all of which will be turned into real-life actresses, in the upcoming Negima! live-action movie.

That's right, the movie was finally confirmed this week, after actress Ai Tanimoto "leaked" the news (and various other things) on her blog back in March. The creator of the Negima manga, Ken Akamatsu, announced on his blog that a live-action adaptation is currently in the works, and it will probably premiere in 2008.

According to ANN's understandings from a Moon Phase report, "he also discusses the overwhelming experience of casting 31 "3D" girls for the story's all-female class".

I wouldn't mind having an "overwhelming experience" with 31 japanese girls, no sir!
