babel writes: So, after nine years, Mahou Sensei Negima! will be ending (but not until the March 15th issue of Weekly Shonen). AKAMATSU Ken will be taking his time to write the three remaining installments. It is uncertain at the moment whether or not these will be extended chapters (as he did with the ending of Love Hina). It is also unknown what, if anything, will follow Negima. Rumors on the anime boards have suggested variously that a 'Negima 2' will be written (with a slightly more adult cast), or that fatherhood has taken it's toll and nothing will be forthcoming for the foreseeable future, though neither of these possibilities has been accompanied by any hard evidence so far...

I for one am very excited. Did you know that Negima was the very first series that I helped scanlate?

Ive been reading for quite a long while as well, I think since the dodgeball chapters. Its a bittersweet feeling to see my favorite manga come to a close

Weird, did the topic with his father got resolved yet? Sorry if this question is stupid, I have only been following the story loosely.

I really am going to miss the series, almost a decade filled with laughs and cries in the story. I hope this series paved the way for something new and better.

I completely understand that because honestly, it got boring with the last fight (with dead people getting back usw.) which was just deus ex machina overkill. And there isn't much left to tell (except for the search of his father, which i believe could be handled in negima 2 if there will be such), just hope that the romance issue gets resolved (thank GOD its not asuna)

Now that's surprising. Negima is in fact the first adult-oriented manga that i read besides anything else. Let's see whether Negima 2 will be out and satisfy our(Negima's reader) curiousity with Negima's cliffhanger...... or not.

cool, I didn't know that...
Did you know that Negima wasn't one of the first series I scanlated?
/me feels very old now D:
Thanks for that T.T
I hope that the cast will get older if he does a negima 2...more sexier chicks :3
He may stop going: Screw scanlation, I strike (wouldn't be first time he would complain about scanlations, lol)

, Jack Rakan was too awesome to be erased. Anyway, this is a light-hearted series lah. Besides, compared to the earlier battles, the last fights were quite brief.
mmm...
