{{work}}
These things about ''[[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]'' are subjective - not everyone will agree with all of them.
* [[Alternate Character Interpretation]]: Konoka acts like a [[Genius Ditz]] at first glance, but her excellent academic record, too-flirty-to-be-totally-innocent remarks to Setsuna and masterful handling of berserk [[Tsundere]] Anya point to [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]. The fact that we've only directly seen her thoughts twice (both for minor things) in the ''entire series'' helps.
* [[Germans Love David Hasselhoff|Americans Love Negima]]
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: {{spoiler|[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v33/c298/11.html this page] shows what looks like Chao in a war-torn future, and yet she smiles all the time during her appearance in the manga.}}
* [[Ass Pull]]:
** Any new pactio formed has a good chance of being exactly what the gang needs at that very instant.
Line 14 ⟶ 16:
* [[Broken Base]]: The ending of the series. Most fans found it left too many plot holes hanging, was too rushed, and wasn't satisfying.
* [[Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch]]: The series has a lot of people who believe that the series is nothing more than a Shotacon ''[[Love Hina]]'' with magic. Although it takes a bit of time to do so, the series does get quite Shoneny for later chapters, though the Harem feel ''is'' prevalent throughout the work.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Most of Cosmo Entelecheia appear to be like this for a good while, until it's revealed that {{spoiler|[[Well
* [[Crazy Awesome]]: Jack Rakan.
* [[Ear Worm]]: "Happy Material".
** That's not how you spell "1000% SPARKING!". Or "A-LY-YA", for that matter.
** You know what's also an [[Ear Worm]]? {{spoiler|
** "Love Drive"!
** "Magical Happiness", "Re-Born", "Maze of the Dark".
** "Get a Chance!", "Good Vibration", "Magical Twinkle Sky" Basically every song they've made in this troper's opinion.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Yue beats Setsuna in the top one ranking now. Must be because of her [[Took a Level
** Makie topped the first two character polls despite not having done much of anything.
** Eva is quite possibly designed for this: She doesn't appear very much, but when she does she tends to dominate the scene.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
** Also, Negi/Fate and Negi/Kurt.
*** And the Foe Yay levels just [[Up to Eleven|increased exponentially]] after Fate realizes that [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v32/c290/18.html his only desire is to fight Negi again.]
*** It doesn't help {{spoiler|that in the next chapter Negi conquered his inner demon by deciding to befriend Fate!}} [[
*** And now in chapter 311, {{spoiler|it turns out that Fate isn't the only averruncus, there's actually 4 of them and one of which is [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v34/c311/14.html FEMALE!!]}}
* [[Funny Aneurysm Moment]]: As part of Negi's and Kotaro's [[Training
** During Tsukuyomi's first appearance, she mentioned wanting to make Setsuna and Konoka hers. That comes off a lot differently now given... what we know now.
* [[Game Breaker]]: A few examples:
** Negi's Pactio artifact, which allows him to use all of his Ministra's artifacts. There is a good reason it was cancelled.
** Jack Rakan's whole existence. Even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] by other characters.
{{quote|
** [[Rewriting Reality|Code of the Lifemaker]]. As said by some person on forums:
{{quote|
* [[Growing the Beard]]: Somewhere between the Evangeline arc and the School Festival arc.
* [[Holy Shit Quotient]]: Rising steadily, taking giant leaps in Chapters 265 and 77.
* [[Ho Yay]]: [[Mahou Sensei Negima
* [[I Am Not Shazam]]: why the "Ma"?
** May be a reference to a Japanese spring onion dish.
Line 52 ⟶ 53:
* [[Karma Houdini]]: Some fans are seeing {{spoiler|Fate}} as one.
* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: Just about everyone, although mainly Negi.
* [[Les Yay]]: {{spoiler|[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v28/c252/16.html When Konoka finally makes a pactio with Setsuna]; she holds the kiss longer than any other seen previously}}
** There's also some between Setsuna and Asuna, especially when Asuna starts [[Fantastic Arousal|stroking Setsuna's wings]].
** And now in chapter 336, {{spoiler|[http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v37/c336/17.html Fate has joined the fray].}} (Then again, this ''is'' [[Even the Guys Want Him|Negi]], so it's quite understandble.) And even before this {{spoiler|there had been some implications of [[Foe Yay]].}}
** In chapter 340, there is a [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v37/c340/4.html surprisingly heartfelt] interaction between [[Vitriolic Best Buds|Asuna and Ayaka]], causing a lot of [[Luminescent Blush
{{quote|
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Dynamis. Haruna has shades of this as well.
* [[Memetic Badass]]: Jack Rakan.
* [[Memetic Outfit]]: Setsuna.
* [[Memetic Sex God]]: Negi can ''kiss you so hard, it breaks the [[Magic
** Negi makes out with a [[Robot Girl]] so hard he gives her a ''soul.''
** A running gag throughout the series is Negi's tendency to try and encourage people through speeches that are all too easily interpreted as romantic propositions, which Chisame lampshades as his "Natural Gigolo Talk."
Line 72 ⟶ 73:
** There's also Chachamaru getting chopped in half. It's become a sort of mini Meme in certain parts of the net to photoshop various reasons for her to be cut in half, [[Kamen Rider|like a Rider Kick]] [http://i1098.photobucket.com/albums/g370/roman551/Owned.png for instance]. It was even animated in ''Final''. Cue videos to the same effect popping up.
* [[Robo Ship]]: Negi/[[Robot Girl|Chachamaru]]
* [[The Scrappy]]: Chisame was consistently at the bottom of character polls early on, due to her abrasive personality. [[Rescued
* [[Shipping]]: Far too many to list; more of a Love Buckyball than a [[Love Dodecahedron]].
* [[Squick]]: To some people, the fact that ''alot'' of 15 year old girls fall in love with or even are merely attracted to a 10 year old is Squicky.
* [[They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot]]: Averted! Do you remember, that Chao said she was from Mars? {{spoiler|Guess where the magical world is hidden!}}
* [[This Is Your Premise
* [[Too Cool to Live]]: In chapter {{spoiler|278}}, {{spoiler|Rakan finally succumbs to the might of the Code of the Lifemaker and disappears in front of Negi}}. Then he {{spoiler|comes ''back from the grave '' (briefly) to [[Bright Slap]] Negi out of his [[Unstoppable Rage]]. It just takes spirit.}}
* [[Villain Decay]]: Notably subverted and twisted with Evangeline: although after her first defeat, she is no longer really an enemy, she later reveals (several times) that she is far, far, ''far'' more powerful than she let on at first, making her absolutely terrifying. Among other things, she uses her ice magic to ''shatter'' a demon several hundred meters tall, she [[KO
** Is it even Motive Decay? Did she really HAVE a motive, excluding getting out of the Academy, prior to her fight with Negi?
*** It's too soon to decide [[Heel Face Turn|she's a good guy now]]. She may simply be watching the show and consider it "unrefined" to interfere at this stage, as with the World Tree arc. She's said several times that the characters shouldn't get too close to her, and in a bit of possible [[Chekhov's Gun|foreshadowing]], that she should be thought of as the "last boss" in a video game.
*** Akamatsu has a habit of bringing villains back; remember when Fate was just a powerful side kick?
* [[The Woobie]]:
** Ako, to an incredible degree.
** Being a happy little boy with an [[Unwanted Harem]] of hot cuties aside, Negi has been through enough [[Dark and Troubled Past|pain, horror, and trauma]] in his short life to give the most hardened Child Welfare officer nightmares for ''months''.
** Nekane is also one.
** Poor, poor {{spoiler|Shiori. And then the truth came finally out... Of all things, did she have to look [http://www.mangafox.com/manga/mahou_sensei_negima/v31/c283/18.html like this?!] [[Moe|It's outright impossible to be angry with her]]! Also includes some [[Cry Cute]] for good measure}}.
* [[X Meets Y]]: Described somewhat deprecatingly as "''[[Harry Potter]]'' meets ''[[Love Hina]]''" when it first appeared. But mid-early way through, it shifted more to "''[[Hunter X Hunter]]'' meets ''[[Love Hina]]'' with magic". Since the start of the Magic World arc, it gradually became a bit more like "''[[Harry Potter]]'' meets ''[[Final Fantasy Tactics]]'' with Bonus [[Fan Service]]"
