At the Mahora Academy Festival, the Budokai Martial Arts Tournament
is well under way - and it seems that all the participants
have something to hide. What has awakened inside Asuna during
the battle with Setsuna? Everyone remains in the dark about
the true identity of the curious Ku:nel Sanders - except Evangeline,
a vampire who, not surprisingly, loves the dark. But how exactly
did she become a bloodsucker? As for Setsuna, how deeply conflicted
is this member of the 'Bird Trobe'? Will she be able to defeat
her own worst enemy - herself?...
Volume
12 of
Negima! and the Budokai Martial Arts Tournament is
finally starting to heat up. With possibly the largest prize
money on offer for such a tournament, the contestants have
come from far and wide to enter, and some don't care what
they have to do in order to win.
With
bladed weapons and guns banned from the tournament, how will
the judges react when one combatant produces a large sword?
And then there is the problem of leaking the whole tournament
onto the Internet - what will normal people do when they realise
that magic exists?
This
release knocks out a few more of the contestants, leaving
our heroes ever closer to getting their hands on the main
prize.
As
with previous releases in this series, Ken Akamatsu's writing
is tight and his illustrations are pretty impressive. But,
more importantly, the balance between a compelling story line
and kick-ass battle action is spot on. Roll on Volume 13.
