   this explains quite a lot.   
      
   also, on an unrelated note, Akimatsu (170cm, 64 kg) of Negima wrote on   
   his website (www.ailove.net) that he had been tested positive with blood   
   in his feces, while under going further testing, he has changed his   
   diet, (1700 kcal a day. breakfast tofu, lunch soba, dinner   
   1fish+1soup+1meal, etc.) and exercise more, (walk 30 mins to work each   
   day instead of commuting.) this could also explain why Negima had been   
   off the serial more often lately.   
      
   of course, quite amusing when the doctor asking him what he does for a   
   living, after replying dawing Negima, the "doctor" said, "ah, I know   
   that."
