Mahou Sensei Negima/WMG: Difference between revisions

Line 107:

== Negi will obtain high office at the end. ==

Because really, who could gainsay him after he finishes off the various [[Big Bad~~|Big Bads~~]]? In fact, he might overturn the whole system of the Magic World. His Pactio title - ''Magistrulus Magi'' - "Magistrate Magician", could also translate as "Lawgiver of Mages"... He's gonna lay down the law on the Senate of Megalosembria - which is [[Xanatos Gambit|just how Chao planned it]].

* This would be a perfect way to end the series. Even without resolving the unrequited love of his class and finding his dad, though having those resolved would be better than not.

* Plus, he's legitimate royalty and very popular with the people. And also not corrupt like all the current politicians.

Line 234:

* There are hints (from Nagi during their showdown and from her interactions with Takamichi) that she was from the outset offered an under-the-table job as night security at Mahora, giving her freedom of movement and chances to feed, and ''encouraging'' illicit access to the security and surveillance systems (and student records) in exchange for preventing anything that might make the Muggle-run school paper. Most of the mages on staff know nothing about this, as Nagi's endorsement wouldn't mean much to them.

* Between some access to magic and some influence with the most likely candidates to have secretly set up Negi to come to Mahora, ''she'' could have stacked that deck. And if she had just wanted a quick feed, she would have gone for his sister. Instead...

* She makes sure Negi is a [[Papa Wolf]] and no lethal threat to her before she confronts him and takes the necessary DMG [[Defeat Means Friendship]] fall. If it weren't for the huge [[Villain Ball]] around her neck, this would be textbook stealth ~~mentor -- she~~ tells him just what he needs to do to protect himself (in general, not just for her), scares him enough that he ''does'' kiss a girl, and deliberately matches his fighting style and power (though we see that enough that it could just be her quirk). It's questionable whether the fall at the end would have killed her or just stuck her at the river's bottom in a broken body until the next full moon... and as for that [[Villain Ball]], it's there in her (Kyoto) rescue scene, but ''planned for'' and controlled. Negi's trying to tackle her (if he died, everything would be ruined) was the one thing which came close to upsetting her.

* Knowing Negi's skill level, his chance (with his class there) of getting accidentally killed as opposed to needing some serious rescuing, and Konoka's heritage (all things she ''has'' to know by this point), she ''proposes'' the Kyoto field trip. She has plenty of time to ensure that nobody from Mahora is going to be free to rescue Negi. It's unlikely that she predicted she'd get the chance to come out and play, or just how close the bad guys got, but those weren't the point. Negi is facing real danger, spotting the "If I wanted you dead..." subtext in their fight, and coming to Eva for training/draining/braining... almost certain. The inner-inner circle at Mahora accepting her slowly regaining her power from this? Also almost certain. Her getting tasked to play host, teacher, and eventual True Companion (at least for mutual self-protection, which is the important point) to other students who could presumably have been assigned to the official teachers? Also predictable.

Line 322:

== Arika is either Negi's childhood friend Anya or maybe his 'sister' ==

Anya would be an excellent cover, first of all, Cocolova is a rather weird name that may come from any number of countries, so there is a decent chance she isn't from Wales (or England, or even an english speaking country). Then her personality is completely opposite of what we know of Arika, but who knows how she turned out after being completely free for a while, and it would be a rather nice cover too. I'm not sure about his 'sister', but it would fit so obviously that [[Million-to-One Chance|it's just too likely]]]]

* Anya is Russian iirc. She isn't supposed to be Welsh/English. Honestly, does Negi's name sound Welsh either? But that's a different point, lets avoid that one. Ahem. And I would say his cousin was secretly Arika except that it does seem a little ''too'' obvious. That was a WMG from ages back before we knew anything at all about her to begin with. Although this troper suspects that it really isn't Arika... Negi was called the last of the Ostian blood line. So who the hell is she then?

Line 371:

* There must be a good reason why the Narutaki twins look and act like ten-year-old children when they are older than the likes of Konoka and Chisame.

** The Narutaki twins are demon princesses. When the twins were under the impression that Negi might be a prince, they seemed more excited than any of the other girls. The twins fear ghosts, and the supernatural would fall in line with the typical ironic jokes in the manga. After all, having heirs to a demon king be deathly afraid of ghosts and monsters would be funny.

*** Continuing this line of thought: In their joke-pactio card, it is written that their special attack is a splitting technique; but we all know that they suck at it. But what if they aren't "real" twins? What if they are the same person (or demon)? They might just be split. The twins were conveniently left out of the Magic-world ~~arc -- because~~ if they went to that world, their magic powers would have to be revealed, or demons or people there would recognize them for what/who they are.

**** The most logical explanation would be that they're actually one demon with splitting powers, but they somehow got stuck in separate forms. It explains why they would be so weak, their power is divided and whatever power keeps them apart prevents them from combining their abilities for full power. It also explains why they got a single botched pactio card when they both kissed Negi. Everyone seems to operate on a one-card-per-person basis, so the twins must actually be a single person. Alternately, they might be a [[Hive Mind]] of some sort, but that got separated into two distinct minds, or maybe a single soul spread across 2 bodies.

* Heck, even the mundanes... Insert Girl Here is a sleeper agent for Insert Faction Here. Kinda like The Manchurian Classmate.

Line 454:

== ~~'''~~Chamo Speculation!~~'''~~ ==

== Chamo Speculation! ==

== Chamo is an assumed name ==

Line 461:

* It's a [[Line-of-Sight Name]].

== Chamo is a former mage who was punished for exposing magic to [[Muggles]]. ==

It isn't much of a stretch; the threat of turning mages who break the [[Masquerade]] into ermines is rather common. Oh, he ''says'' he's an "elf ermine," but Negi will believe anything. He also says something about "clearing his name" in one of the early chapters.

* The punishments for what happened in the Chao arc only amounted to a handful of years in ermine form. Is Chamo capable of topping that?

Line 474:

== Chamo is Gateau Kagura Vandenburg ==

While he seemed heavily injured in his final conversation with Takahata and Asuna, it wasn't ''shown'' that he died. That scene happened before Negi met Chamo, five years ago. Chamo exhibits at least one of Gateau's ~~habits -- smoking -- and~~ we haven't seen enough of Gateau to say for sure that he wasn't a [[Dirty Old Man]].

Chamo exhibits at least one of Gateau's habits—smoking—and we haven't seen enough of Gateau to say for sure that he wasn't a [[Dirty Old Man]].

== Chamo is storing an ''enormous'' amount of magical energy siphoned from the Pactios for... something. ==

The artifacts created whenever Negi engages in a Pactio are literally Artifact-level items; stupidly large quantities of [[Mana]] must be required for these. Chamo has admitted he has an ulterior motive for creating as many pactios as ~~possible -- he~~ gets something called "Ermine Dollars" for it from parties unknown. Clearly, the more Pactios Negi makes, the more ''someone'' benefits.

Line 522:

== Chao is not simply Negi's descendant, she is the descendant of every member of Negi's nakama or even all of the members of class 3-A (or at least the ones who can reproduce). ==

During Negi and Ku Fei's Pactio, part of the [[Ship Tease]] is that Chao looks more like Ku Fei than the rest of Negi's True Companions. But after hundreds or possibly thousands of years, it is possible (likely?) that the offspring of a close knit group like Negi's would eventually end up together.

* Chao's not from that far in the future though, 100 years is 3-5 generations. Being a desendent of the 29 students that can get pregnant (Eva's 10, (though her ovaries should still be good, with enough Science! it might work.) and Chachamaru's a robot) would mean that she's 15 generations removed of Negi which is about ~~500-2500~~ years. And current events makes it seem implausable that the Magic World has 500 years left let alone 2500.

* Chao's not from that far in the future though, 100 years is 3-5 generations.

And current events makes it seem implausable that the Magic World has 500 years left let alone 2500.

** Except it's not 15 generations, best case scenario is a binary decontruction, so it is only six generations (30 kids in first generation if everyone can somehow reproduce, and if those children all pair off you get 30->15->8->4->2->Chao). If each generation is only sixteen years that's 96 years.

*** That logic requires that half of the 30 ancestors be male, which ''one'' of them is. So short of [[Gender Bender|magical transformation allowing half of the class to be fathers]], it can't happen in 6 generations (Though your implication of [[Tenchi Solution|polygamy]] in the second generation is amusing (15/2=7R1 you have 8)). Also 16 years between generations? Unlikely, given Negi's... [[Chick Magnet|popularity]] with his students and many of his students would sixteen when he's twelve, sex is unlikely until he's 15, placing many of the mothers at 20-50 (Asuna's roughly [[Christmas Cake|35-40 years old]] as of the current chapter which really drags out the out lieing, most of the class would be 20-21 with Asuna at ~45-50). 20 years between generations is far more likely, doubly so after Negi stops reproducing.

Line 616:

== Fate's plan didn't happen at all in the original timeline. ==

He was either imprisoned in some way or unaware that the collapse was that close. Chao freed him/clued him in, and let him know the details of the future war, as part of her constellation of [[Xanatos Gambit~~|Xanatos Gambits~~]].

He was either imprisoned in some way or unaware that the collapse was that close. Chao freed him/clued him in, and let him know the details of the future war, as part of her constellation of [[Xanatos Gambit]]s.

* Note that Poyo specifically states that she believes Fate's plan will prevent Chao's future if it succeeds - which necessarily means that ''something'' must be different than the original timeline. Poyo, at least, knows about Chao's future, and since Fate would win for certain if not for Ala Alba's intervention, she ''must'' believe that Fate's plan never happened. This implies that someone from the future (read: Chao) specifically altered things so that Fate could enact his plan in this timeline. Which means from Chao's perspective there were three possible outcomes:

** 1: Chao wins in the Mahora festival arc, the world recognizes the existence of magic. The Mundus Magicus still collapses, but with Earth recognizing the existence of magic many of the residents are saved and the centuries-long war is prevented. Chao's future is averted.

Line 811:

== A [[Likes Older Women|preference for older women]] is a common trait of Springfield men ==

Every single one of Negi's potential love interests is older than he is, and the ones that have the best chance are all ~~3-4~~ years older than him. As for Nagi, Arika just looks like she's older than he is. Nagi is a teenager, but she looks to be at least 20 or so. Not to mention the fact that {{spoiler|Arika's only know blood relative is at least 30, but looks 15}}, so who knows how old she really is.

== Negi's destined partner is Chisame ==

Line 819:

== Negi will end up [[Boys Love|batting for the other team]] ==

Overexposure to the opposite sex from a really young age. The the opposite sex just becomes...WorthlessYellowRocks. He's too young to be showing a lack of reaction, yet.

* So Chao comes from artificial insemination, then?

** Yes. Konoka wanted a kid.

== 3-A is a collection of the various [[Anthropomorphic Personification~~|Anthropomorphic Personifications~~]] of Fanservice ==

== 3-A is a collection of the various [[Anthropomorphic Personification]]s of Fanservice ==

Because it makes too much sense. Each one represents a different fetish called into being by the intense desires of otaku. Much like Discworld gods,their belief makes them real; the more belief they have,the more personal power they have and the more of a personality they gain. Also like Discworld,some cover more than one base, gaining more power.

Line 856:

== Kotarou will form pactios with Chizuru and Ayaka ==

He's said he considers them family, after all. Chizuru's scary when she wants to be, and the class rep used to be able to hold her own against Asuna, so both of them could make good fighter-types. Since they're both [[Muggle~~|Muggles~~]], they could easily find themselves in a "make a pactio or die situation", so Kotarou will actually be willing to do it. Plus, if Ayaka gets a crush on [[Girls Have Cooties|Kotarou]] hilarity will most definately ensue.

* Makes sense to me. It would be funny seeing Ayaka worrying who to choose. I'm guessing that Ayaka's card would have something to do with Flowers going off some other pactio cards that Akamatsu drawn. Don't know about Chizuru, something to with scaring everyone half to death maybe?

** Spring onions. I don't know how, but it will involve spring onions.

Line 878:

* Also note that Negi has been spending more and more time in his aged-up form as the story goes on.

* This wouldn't be without precedent, either; it's implied that Takamichi looks older than he is because he did the same thing Negi is doing now.

* Genius! It won't be long before the [[Toy Ship~~|Toy Shipping~~]] becomes real [[Shipping]]..

...Eva. When Asuna asks if they even could hook up and says that "you ''are'' both the same kind of people", she means it literally in that both Negi and the person he likes are immortals. Asuna's being surprised at first, but then deciding that it makes sense, suggests that it's someone that is a lot like ~~Negi--and~~ as has been emphasized before, Negi's now more like Evangeline than he is like a normal human, mage or otherwise.
