Original Note:
"Nega" (ネガ) is not a proper Japanese word for "negative" nor is it used as slang. It's plausible that English speakers might mishear "じゃないか" (janai ka), a phrase commonly used in negative questions or to express doubt in casual speech and anime, as "nega." https://jlptsensei.com/learn-japanese-grammar/%E3%81%98%E3%82%83%E3%81%AA%E3%81%84%E3%81%8B-janai-ka-meaning/ https://bunpro.jp/grammar_points/%E3%81%98%E3%82%83%E3%81%AA%E3%81%84%E3%81%8B
