Before jumping into the genre-mashing anime series NEGIMA, get schooled in the world of the show, which includes dozens of diverse female characters--ninjas, martial artists, vampires, robots, and ghosts among them--who attend an unusual Japanese middle school. These exclusive-to-video episodes precede the series proper and introduce Negi Springfield, a young magician fresh out of the Merdinia Magic Academy who must take on a position teaching female students who are actually older than he is.
