I have read the entire manga up to the latest scanlated versions by Aquastar-anime. I also watched both Animes as they were released by fansubbers as well as both of the OAV's. Personally the manga is far more enjoyable than both animes.
My favorite characters are likely Nodoka, Yue, Ako, Negi, and Kotarou. Chao is also cool, but I won't spoil the scene I like the best if you haven't yet read the manga.

w00t, another fan! I don't really like Nodoka though. I think she's kinda bland...But Yue is awesome, and i've only seen Ako speak, like, once.<span style="color:#FFCCFF">

So far, my favorites are Ayaka and Chisame (I've only seen the first...15 epsidoes as of right now)! Ayaka is such a shotacon, and Chisame's episode was so hilarious! And I hope Kazumi gets more screen time!
I hope Asuna and Negi don't like, end up together...That would be so uncomfortable...For me anyway.
<span style="color:#FFCCFF">
Not liking Nodoka if you have only seen the animes is understandable. She has much more character in the manga.
Nodoka's artifact(the first anime doesn't really show it much) is a diary that allows her to read a person's mind. Including her own 'true' thoughts. In other words she can beat self-deception with it.
Here is a crapnature(crappy signature) from a scene involving Nodoka and Haruna in the manga[I hope this doesn't get me in trouble and just in case I only linked to it.. I don't think it is bad enough but it is at least a bit suggestive].
*cough*

Kazumi gets a good amount of screen time in the manga. However, unless my memory is off Kazumi really doesn't get too much at all in either anime.
Also if you enjoy Chisame you should watch the Haru and Natsu OVA's there are some nice scenes of her in there that I found enjoyable.
Hmm... I also want to mention that the Characters don't always hold true to their manga selves in the anime. If I recall the anime says Nodoka has a fear of men... however, that isn't in the manga. She just happens to be VERY shy.

Now I definitely have to get the manga!
And that signature wasn't that bad...n_n
What about Zazie? Do you learn anything about her in the manga? I've read around the web and it says she only gets one line in the entire first anime...
It looks like all the nice and sweetness of the world collided with a bunch of kids in Mangaland. Standard anime stuff then?
There is no signature here. Move along.
Yep, pretty standard.
But it's better!xD
<span style="color:#FFCCFF">
Zazie is still shrouded in mystery but there are 'easter eggs' of development for her dropped here and there throughout the 174 chapters of the manga that I have read.
Anyways once you finish the ones released in English you could check out aquastar. You won't be able to get the books/chapters released in English from them because they follow the 'scanlator/fansubber' ethic. However, you can get the OVA's and the latest manga chapters[166-174] that haven't been released in English from their site.
As for Captain Max here is quick preview.
Negi Springfield is a 10 year old Welsh boy and he has been given the task of being a English teacher for an all girls class at Mahora Academy in Japan. However, Negi is not your average 10 year old. He is a graduate of the Magic Academy and is a child prodigy. Not only that but he is son of the Thousand Master one of the, if not the, most powerful Magicians of his time.
This task is not as easy as it seems. First Negi must keep his identity a secret, or else. Secondly the class is the most hyper active and unusual class of 14'ish year old girls you have likely ever seen. To make matters further worse is the fact these girls love to put him through his paces(poor guy gets stripped by them :/ and dressed up as a kitsune-girl, and so much more).
And the final complication comes when his power is inadvertently revealed to one of the more hot tempered of his students(who has been given reason to dislike him already).
Edit- It is made by the Ken Akamatsu who also made Love Hina. You can definitely see a similarity between the two, but Negima whoops Love Hina quite easily.
Edit2- And just cause I love these three pages I'll share them. There is some Ayaka goodness in these three :P.

I've seen several episodes of the anime, it's cool ^.^
However, as I believe I mentioned in a previous rant, I share a room with both of my brothers and can't focus enough to read with other people around. Thus I don't think I'm going to be reading the manga for a while.

Just another typical school morning for the young boy teacher.
What will Negi's class do for the culture festival?
Ayaka supplies the cloths for the cafe
It is a bit expensive....
You can't even look without paying?!
Nodoka gives it a go!
Chisame steps up to the plate!
And time to torture the teacher
"A 'Heart-Pumping Swimsuit Extravaganza Cafe'"
"We don't understand the meaning of all these terms"
Ayaka gets a nosebleed
And this is what happens when Asuna decides to be nice and let Negi share her bed(Negi being just a little boy doesn't like sleeping alone and had always slept with his sister).
Negi is gonna get it
Anyways those are some of my favorites that stand out(that and the three pages previously shown). Of course the real meat of the Manga is in other pages, it actually does have a plot.

Haha, Ayaka got a nosebleed!xD
I so have to go to Borders and but the manga!
EDITGA: And just in case someone just happened to be reading this and is interested, here's episode 1-18 (English dubbed) of the first anime series!

My friend lent me the manga. It's reasonably interesting but nothing really stand-out, and the heavy fanservice involving overdeveloped 14-year-olds who are all in love with their 10-year-old teacher isn't exactly my thing.
