Line 11:
* [[Ambiguous Gender]]: Tokisaka Kuroumaru, who is pretty and strong. Claims to be male, while having these strange feelings of attraction towards Touta (of course). {{spoiler|Is actually from a species that chooses a sex at adulthood, so it's still not clear where he's going to end up in the end.}}
* [[Attractive Bent Gender]]: When Kuroumaru [[Cross Dresser|Cross Dresses]], naturally he's super cute in a dress. Kyaaan~!
* [[Anti-Hero]]: Fate Averruncus has graduated to the heroic side from his original [[Anti-Villain]] status, but he's still a total [[Jerkass]].
* [[Badass]]
* [[Badass Crew]]: UQ Holder, by design, because they're all magical immortals. Of course, members of Ala Rubra and Ala Alba are still kicking around
* [[Big Beautiful Woman]]: Dana Ananga Jagannatha, Witch of the Rift. She's been around long enough that big is still beautiful to her, though if she splits off a bit of her self, the clone turns in to [[Buxom Is Better]], [[Lolicon]], and [[Chibi]] forms.
* [[Breast Expansion]]: Dana decides that Yukihime doesn't have large enough breasts, and magicks her breasts up to [[Gag Boobs]] proportions. This is important as a plot point, to show that Dana has enough power to force her magic against even Yukihime.
* [[Buxom Is Better]]: As Yukihime, Evangeline spends most of her time in adult form these days with a decent rack -- although Dana demonstrates that she can do [[Breast Expansion|even better]].
* [[Cloning Blues]]: {{spoiler|Our protagonist, Touta}} goes through this when he finds out he's a clone for a few chapters, but he gets over it pretty quickly.
* '''[[Death Is Cheap]]''': Most of the characters are immortal. Characters like the vampires can "die", but they come back a few minute later. A whole training section from Dana focuses on making death even cheaper, so that characters can regenerate from being killed in a matter of seconds.
* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]: Yukihime, which of course literally means "ice princess", is still in the process of thawing, in spite of her progress in the first manga. Evangeline's still an ice magic user who isn't afraid to be a brutal task-mistress in training.
* [[Fanservice]]: Hey guys, guess what? The clothes-stripping magic of Negima is back, baby!
* [[Generation Xerox]]: Honoka Konoe and Isana Konoe look like carbon copies of Konoka Konoe and Setsuna Sakurazaki. Isana has the same family name, but still refers to Honoka as [[Ojou]]-sama for some inexplicable reason. They refer to Touta Konoe as their brother, but {{spoiler| he's a more literal form of Xerox, being some kind of clone of Negi}}.
** Shinobu Yuuki is so similar to Shinobu Maehara of ''[[Love Hina]]'' that even [[The Other Wiki]] noticed. Putting this here rather than [[Expy]], as ''Love Hina'' is presumably in the same universe due to the shared Shinmeiryuu martial arts style.
* [[Harem Genre]]: Once again, Ken Akamatsu delivers us a manga that has several attractive females throwing themselves at a cute boy.
* [[Idiot Hero]]: Touta, who definitely didn't inherit the studious attitude from his Grandfather Negi.
* [[I Don't Want to Ruin Our Friendship]]: Expressed by {{spoiler|Kuroumaru}}, who eventually decides that they will be [[Better as Friends]], even expressing it with [[Bishie Sparkle]]!
* [[Love Confession]]: Touta does this to ''Yukihime'' of all people (see [[Idiot Hero]], above). He gets turned down pretty hard. A few chapters later, he eats a [[Haiyore! Nyaruko-san|truth potion chocolate]] and goes around telling all of the characters he loves them.
* [[Luminescent Blush]]: Most of the girls and [[Even the Guys Want Him|some of the boys]] do this for Touta, but none so egregiously as Kirië, whose entire face lights up when thinking about a guy she is definitely not in love with, not at all!
* [[Long Runner]]: If you include it as a part of Negima, definitely, but even this story is over 100 chapters.
* [[Memetic Sex God]]: In the decades since Negima, Negi's status has risen such that he is said to make a woman fall in love with just a single look.
Line 26 ⟶ 34:
* [[Our Vampires Are Different]]: Different types even within the story. Touta is a vampire/{{spoiler|clone/doll}}, Evangeline's vampirism came from a magical experiment, and Dana is one of the great old ones.
* [[Red Baron]]: The Mage of the Beginning is the [[Big Bad]], though pretty much everyone from Negima now has a cool nickname, 80 years later.
* [[Tenchi Solution]]: Not proposed yet, but lurking in the background, both for Touta, and what happened to Negi.
* [[Tournament Arc]]: The Mahora Martial Arts Tournament is billed as Touta's ticket to the top of the [[Space Elevator]], but put on the back burner as he does a training arc, then a romance arc, and then a racing arc.
* [[Trope Overdosed]]: Fill out the page, guys.
* [[Tsundere]]:
* [[Save Point]]: This is
* [[Space Elevator]]: A central feature of Shin Tokyo, a thin line that stretches to the sky. Touta's original goal is to reach the top of the elevator, but he keeps working up a big debt from property damage that he can't afford to do it.
* [[Science Fantasy]]: A [[Science Fiction Kitchen Sink|kitchen sink]] of tropes from fantasy and science fiction, with magic and high technology blending in the next century.
