We are searching for the prompt X-ray emissions from the Galactic classical novae (CNe). The CNe are explained as thermonuclear runaways on the surface of accreting white dwarfs. In analogous of the type I X-ray bursts, the CNe possibly emit the prompt X-ray at their ignition, but it had never been detected. The Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI) scans all sky every 92 minutes, then it can make a movie of all sky. These data are stored as the archive, so we can search for phenomena back to the past. We try to detect the prompt X-ray emission by analyzing the archive data at the location of the discovered classical novae during the statically observing stage of the MAXI. We analyzed the datum every 1orbit at 1.5-4keV of Gas Slit Camera (GSC) of 9 of the 15 CNe discovered in our Galaxy. Nowadays, no deterministic source has detected yet. In the poster, we will also report about the additional CNe discovered before the workshop.
