Why $E^o$ values for $Mn,\,Ni$ and $Zn$ are more negative than expected ?

For $M ^{2+} / M$ and $M ^{3+} / M ^{2+}$ systems, the ${E^\Theta }$ values for some metals are as follows:

$Cr ^{2+} / Cr \,-0.9 \,V$

$Cr ^{3} / Cr ^{2+}\,-0.4 \,V$

$Mn ^{2+} / Mn \,-1.2\, V$

$Mn ^{3+} / Mn ^{2+}\,+1.5 \,V$

$Fe ^{2+} / Fe\, -0.4 \,V$

$Fe ^{3+} / Fe ^{2+}\,+0.8\, V$

Use this data to comment upon:
