    You are correct - Negima is not hentai. It's a harem manga series. With lots of fan service. Which is probably why it's rated 16+ and the volumes have been shrinkwrapped, though when hubby and I have gotten it, it's been opened. Except for the last volume we bought.
    Del Rey stopped shrink-wrapping it since I believe Volume #12.

      Not really. It, like Love Hina, is a parody of harem manga.

      On topic I used to get the same thing. Yes we sell a game with death and naughty bits, and it sells quite well, so no, we are not going to stop selling it because YOU find it objectionable.

      OR

      I am sorry ma'am, but I DID warn you it was not for your 12 year old, so no we are not going to stop selling them.

      Did the owner have the power to stop selling them? Yes. Did he? Not a chance.

        Yeah, Negima is by Ken "Pointless Panty Shot" Akamatsu, but it's certainly not porn. You can see far more skin and female objectification watching 8 seconds of MTV at any time of day.

        Do you think she was working the pr0n angle or the OMIGAWD! WITCHCRAFT@!$ angle?
        LOL, yes but you have to admit, aside from the pointless panty shot, he's got some good stuff. AI Love You is probably his tamest series, aside from being his breakout series.

        And c'mon, if she was gonna complain about the porn or witchcraft angle, then why not target FullMetal Alchemist (alchemy, oh noes! it's just like magic!) or Ah! My Goddess! (oh noes! stuff about goddesses, that's heathen!)
        Random conversation:
        Me: Okay..so I think I get why Zoro wears a bandana
        DDD: Cuz it's cool

        So, by using the Doctor's reasoning, bow ties, fezzes and bandanas are cool.

          Because there are no pointy hats in that. Harry and Negi involve pointy hats. Pointy hats = evil.

            The porn angle would be better used against, say, Battle School, or whatever that one is that Tenjo Tenshe was based on. Witchcraft...? There are tons of anime that are based on or around witchcraft... For instance? Kiki's Delivery Service, an otherwise wholesome family movie.

                  If you have seen one Piccasso, have you seen them all? Heard one movment of Beethoven, heard them all? No! Of course not! Each is a seperate and unique work of art, and must be viewed as such to be able to properly enjoy the true masterpieces.

                    I don't get it. I'll admit it's probably a personal thing, but to me they're just organs. I look at breasts and vaginas and penises and all I see are organs. I'm perfectly capable of recognizing the attractiveness of both sexes, but not a single one of those three things has on its own attracted or aroused me. In fact, private parts are pretty damn silly-looking. The form and details of a person's body can be very pleasing, but... organs are organs. *Shakes head* I just don't get it.

                      There are some parts of the body that I find can be quite attractive all on their own. Genitalia, of either gender, is not one of those parts.

                            For the record, there are many other titles that are worse than Negima. The latest volume of Moonphase comes to mind. Or Sorcerer Hunters.
