Product Description

Don't touch that Wand! Ten-year-old prodigy Negi Springfield has just graduated from magic academy. He dreams of becoming a master wizard. Instead, he's sent to Japan to teach English...at an all-girls high school! All the students are delighted with their cute new teacher - except for Asuna, who resents Negi for replacing the teacher she secretly has a crush on. Although he is forbidden to display his magical powers, sometimes Negi can't resist. And when Asuna discovers Negi's secret, she vows to make his life as difficult as possible - just the thing to prepare Negi for the challenges of life as a master wizard!

4.0 out of 5 stars Who's the ku:nel?, 10 Mar 2007
By E. A Solinas "ea_solinas" (MD USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Negima: v. 13 (Paperback)
Ken Akamatsu's Mahorafest storyline has been building to a climax for four volumes now, and the thirteenth volume of "Negima" doesn't quite get there. But it still reveals new mysteries, and gives us three kinetic battles as the Budokai competition ends.

New mages are revealed as Asuna and the newly clothed Takane go on a mission to rescue Takahata, with the help of some magic nuns. But the girls find themselves in combat with a bunch of killer robots controlled by Chao Lingshen, and elsewhere the skeptical Chisame learns that more info on Negi (including about his dad) is leaking onto the web.

Meanwhile, the final rounds of the Budokai are underway as Kaede battles the mysterious Ku:nel, Negi battles Setsuna -- and the winners will get to the final round. But the boy wizard is distracted by the Ku:nel -- is this his long-lost father, the Thousand Master? As the two do battle, Negi discovers the Ku:nel's true identity, and a message meant just for him.

Unsurprisingly the thirteenth volume ends with another cliffhanger, just as we're about to learn of Chao's secret plot involving the mages. But there's plenty of new revelations in this volume anyway, particularly the real identity of the Ku:nel, how he's so powerful -- even for a mage -- and how he knows so much about Negi and Asuna's pasts.

The thirteenth volume suffers from a bit of middle-book syndrome, since not much is actually finished here except for the Budokai. After all, Asuna and the others are apparently still hunting for Takahata. But Akamatsu keeps things interesting with robot henchmen and kinetic magical battles full of gravity orbs and shadow doubles. There's even some comic relief like Takane freaking out at the prospect of losing her clothes for the third time.

And though virtually everyone is doing something, the spotlight is on Negi in this volume, as he tries to figure out if the Ku:nel is his dad. The final battle of the Budokai has a brief period involving Negi and the Thousand Master, which is both poignant and wickedly funny.

The thirteenth volume of "Negima" doesn't take the plot very far, but reveals some important secrets that promise to make number fourteen VERY interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars A pleasure to read!, 25 Aug 2009
By Mr. D. J. R. Overend (Northern Ireland, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Negima: v. 4 (Paperback)
In Negima Vol 4, Negi and his class go on a field trip to Kyoto Japan to study the history of japan but Negi real reason of the Trip is to find out about his father. This volume has is the 1st part of the school trip which expands over to vol 5 and 6 as well. I very much enjoy reading this book and it introduces a few new charcters along the way. If you have read the previous volumes then I highly recommend volume 4.

5.0 out of 5 stars Negi Grows Up, 27 Mar 2007
By ds (Whitby, UK) - See all my reviews
  
This review is from: Negima: v. 13 (Paperback)
For those of you who thought that Negi had already had some fairly quick growing-up to do earlier on, volume 13 holds some even greater surprises.

We discover the true identity of Ku:nel Sanders and just why it is that he has entered the tournament. The climax of this volume in particular is at turns funny, action-packed and poignant as Negi ends up fights perhaps the most surprising opponent of all.

Elsewhere, things are just as hectic for the others. We get some really good background and character development for Setsuna, Asuna and even Evangeline, who is not quite the apotheosis of cool detachment she would like everyone to think she is, revealing just what she *really* thinks of the Thousand Master.

But rest assured, the festival's about to get a whole lot more interesting, because Chao is certainly more than she appears to be...
