Mahou Sensei Negima!
Period 270: Your Answer!
[Insert text: The tale of his father and mother complete, the question of a newfound unresolved grudge remains...]
Flashback!Takahata: ...So why not drop it? / For today, at least... // Just let this be a happy end.
Negi: Father... // Mo...ther...
Nodoka: Th - Th - Th - / Thank goodness~~~~~~~~~! I was really worried for a while there...! // I'm so glad that Arika-sama was saved and they ended up together and... / ...and it all ended happily~~~~!
Chisame: [aside]well, if they didn't survive, Sensei wouldn't exactly have been born...[/aside]
Sayo: [aside]did you get all that~?[/aside]
Asakura: [aside]sure did! the others can't miss this stuff![/aside]
Gödel: Ah... ahahh...

2
Gödel: Aahhhh... no matter how many times I watch it, that part always gets me...
Girls: (Is he... crying~~~?!)
Gödel: But yes, don't worry... / Just about everything in this film is accurate. // Even the scenes with Nagi and Arika-sama alone together were constructed based on detailed information from both parties involved.
Nodoka: (This man...) // ...... // Kurt-san... // You had feelings for Arika-sama, didn't you?
Gödel: Hm?
Nodoka: ...Ah... I knew it...
Gödel: ...That's quite enough of that...

3
Chisame: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... don't tell me that's the real reason behind all the stuff you're up to.
Gödel: Hahahahaha... / You certainly are attentive girls, I'll give you that... but we seem to be straying from the topic at hand somewhat, so I'll just ignore that. / Now, then... // How did you find it, Negi-kun? / The atrocious actions of the Megalomesembrian Senate. // I hope this has helped you to understand just how much your father and mother... / ...truly did for the world?
Asakura: I'm still not seeing what exactly your point is.
Gödel: Well, naturally... / ...that would be to aid Negi-kun's search for his father and mother by revealing the truth to him... // ...and once he has come to fully understand the situation, have him continue where the two of them left off. // Come, Negi-kun... fight together with us. // Continue what your father and mother began, and save the world. / This is the only logical conclusion of your journey here.

4
Negi: (The conclusion... of my journey? // Arika-sama... // Mother... // She was such a strong person... why didn't anybody tell me earlier? // The "Queen of Calamity"... I don't care about that in the slightest... // And Father... // He really was just like I always imagined. // Always the straightforward hero... // Showing up right when my mother was in trouble... // It's thanks to the two of them that I exist today... // Learning that alone makes this journey more than worthwhile... // Truly... // Truly worthwhile...)

5
Gödel: What reason have you to hesitate? It should be obvious now that your enemy is the Megalomesembrian Senate. / They abused Arika-sama as a pawn in their foul games... // ...all for the sake of obtaining the land of Ostia and the Twilight Imperial Princess for themselves. // And once they failed in that attempt, they next targeted Arika-sama's orphan; yourself... / You understand what that means, I hope? // Yes... in doing battle with them, you can both protect your mother's honour... / ...and accomplish your own revenge at the same time!!
Negi: ...!!
Gödel: And you can also pave the way forward; create a new future. The ideals you should pursue... the will you should succeed... to proceed along the same path as your father and mother... / There can only be one answer. // Come, fight together with me! For the sake of the world!!
Negi: ... // (Father... / Mother...)

6
Gödel: Your answer? // I see no remaining reason for you to hesitate.
Flashback!Takahata: Kurt... we can do the rest ourselves.

7
Flashback!Takahata: ...So why not drop it? / For today, at least... // Just let this be a happy end.
Yuuna: Wo~~~~~w!! // Man, that sure was one happy end! That's just... wow!
Makie: Aahhhh... thank goodness... they got to be together in the end... / [aside]happily ever after...[/aside]
Ako: [aside]I was really worried when she was all captured and everything... / [aside]that was so romantic...[/aside]
Haruna: Sti~~ll... a tale of love between the Queen of a dead country and the hero of a great war... this stuff's almost too perfect. / [aside]that's Negi's old man for ya...[/aside]
Konoka: Arika-sama's smile at the end was so nice...
Akira: It's so hard to believe that an epic tale like this is actually connected to our Negi-sensei, right...?
Natsumi: [aside]I know... I mean, I'd heard stories, but seeing a younger Takahata-sensei in there is pretty unbelievable too...[/aside]
Makie: Ah - look, look! This is it! This is right where Arika-sama was talking to Nagi!
Yuuna: Ahhh! You're right! It's like... a historic spot! Quick, we should take a photo!
KuFei: Ahhh... Haruna...
Haruna: What?

8
KuFei: That story was so complicated... // ...I didn't really actually understand it~aru...
Haruna: ...What part?!
Makie: [aside]me too, actually~[/aside]
Natsumi: [aside]same here... the scale was just too huge...[/aside]
KuFei: Well... pretty much all of it...
Haruna: Guaahhhh! / [aside]fine, fine, I'll explain![/aside]
Kotarou: [aside]ahahah...[/aside] // Man, Captain Fei is an idiot...
Haruna: Look, basically, the Megalomesembrian Senate were total bad guys! Like, SUPER ULTRA BAD!!
[Text: ULTRA BAD]
Diagram!Senator: [aside]mwahahahaha[/aside]
[Label: Megalomesembrian Senate]
Haruna: Then there's Arika-sama, who was this total hottie, but the horrible senators used her for their own evil stuff... / And that's where awesome hero Thousand Master Nagi comes in! A thrilling rescue! Then they get married and it's all one big happy end!
[Top arrow: Made her out to be a mega-criminal]
[Bottom arrow: Attacked his village]
[Labels: Arika // Nagi // Negi]
[Above heart: Married]
[Above Nagi: HERO]
Haruna: And then the two of them ended up having a kid, and that was Negi-kun, but it turns out the real bad guys who attacked Negi-kun's village were the horrible Megalomesembrian Senate again, so it's like, "oh crap"!! / So basically, these guys have been doing horrible stuff to Negi-kun's family for two whole generations!!
KuFei: Ohh... I see. // So that final-boss guy and Fate and all those guys weren't Negi's dad's enemies after all~aru...?
Haruna: They were all enemies too!
KuFei: Hmmmmm... This is complicated...
Haruna: What's so complicated?! Surely this stuff is simple! / [aside]there's all sorts of stories where you think you've beaten the final boss but then it just moves up to the next level![/aside]
Emily: I - I - I - I - I - I - I - I - I...
Haruna: Hm?

9
Emily: I cannot believe this glorious tale has been kept from us for so long...! // The atrocities committed by those Megalomesembrian Council fiends are unforgivable!! // There is nothing for it but to report every last detail of this... / ...directly to the highest authorities of Ariadne, and turn this into an international incident!!
People: Somebody stop this girl~~~!! / [aside]we can't have chaos like that breaking out![/aside]
Emily: [aside]ahh - ! what do you think you are doing?! / get off me, you beast![/aside]
Haruna: Hold it~~~! You! Memory-loss girl!! // What are you even doing here at all?! / With your friends and everything!
Yue: We couldn't wait, so we ended up heading out here. // Still... // If the contents of this movie are true, then Negi...san... / ...really is a deeply important figure here in the Magical World in all kinds of different ways...

10
Haruna: What do you mean by that, Yue?
Emily: WHO EXACTLY DO YOU THINK YOU ARE SUDDENLY USING YUE'S NAME WITHOUT ANY HONORIFICS YOU PRESUMPTUOUS LITTLE~~
Haruna: Guaaaaaaahh?! What the heck's with this girl?! Y - Yue~~~~!
Emily: [aside]you're doing it again, you little - [/aside]
Haruna: [aside]we're best friends, all right?! best friends![/aside]
Emily: [aside]whaaaaaaat?![/aside]
Chamo: GIVE IT A REST ALREADY~~~~!
Yue: Well, simply being the son of the hero Nagi and the Queen of Calamity Arika obviously gave him serious significance already... / ...but it would appear that Negi-san himself may also have an important value of his own.
Haruna: Ohh~~?
Yue: It is said that the very first Queen of this world's oldest Royal Family, the line of Ostia, was a mage by the name of Amateru, a well-known figure in fairy tales and the like. / [aside]She's also famous because of this statue, which became the basis for the Pactio system.[/aside] // It is said that she was the daughter of the Creator, and also that those who continue her bloodline inherit a mysterious power known as the "Magic of the Ancients". // And the war served as proof that these legends are true. // The power of the royal line was directly used as a weapon.
Emily: This is the first I've heard of anything like that...
Yue: It's generally considered top-secret. My Orbis Sensualium Pictus has the ability to retrieve even Level A classified information.

11
Yue: But if Negi-san is the final living member of that royal line... // ...then I think you should all be able to see how his very existence possesses a critical significance.
Natsumi: Wow... Negi-kun really is kind of incredible, huh...
Chachamaru: So it would seem...
Yuuna: Actually, weren't they saying something about the royal line's power in the movie as well?
Makie: [aside]did they?[/aside]
Ako: [aside]oh, I think I remember something like that...[/aside]
Akira: Wasn't there something about a "Twilight Imperial Princess"...?
Chamo/Setsuna/Konoka: !!
Kotarou: Oh, yeah, I remember that! That's the girl the Thousand Master was always calling "Princess-chan", right? I think...
Haruna: Mm-hm! I actually laughed when they mentioned the real name of that "Princess-chan" in the movie just now! What a crazy coincidence... // I mean, "Princess Asuna"...!
Shiori!Asuna: Eh...?

12
Imma: ...And that's the story.
Eishun: Ahhh, that certainly takes me back... // You wouldn't catch us doing crazy things like that these days, eh? Hahaha...
Imma: Ahahah. Don't you recall, Eishun? / There was that little incident in Kyoto with the Ryoumen Sukuna no Kami that caused all kinds of... / [aside]ahaha[/aside] // Hmm? // You certainly seem to be tetchy today, Kitty.
Eva: Hmph. // So I suppose he was already married when he first met me fifteen years ago... Haha. / Heheheheh... that would explain why my charms failed to sway him...
Imma: Kitty... / Relax.

13
Imma: I doubt you would have been able to sway him regardless of the circumstances. // [aside]such a lovely smile you have. not a trace of Shinso menace.[/aside]
Eva: I see you have a desire to die, book-man. // Still, that boy... he may look like his father, but it would seem on the inside he's more like his mother. / [aside]ahahah[/aside]
Chachazero: [aside]pretty much.[/aside]
Chachamaru': ...
Imma: Hahaha... true enough.
Eva: [aside]hmph[/aside] // ... // Come to think of it, that... Gödel, was he called?
Imma: Yes. // [aside]you have never actually met him yourself, have you?[/aside]
Eva: He sounds like a rather pleasant sort of man. // I'm sure he and our ever-so-serious boy will make a wonderful combination.
Shiori!Asuna: Hm?

14
Sayo: Hello~! / How's it going, everyone?!
Chamo: Just perfect, Sayocchi!
Haruna: The spirit waves were a bit dodgy during the first part, but we managed to watch most of the film about Negi's mum and dad just fine! // Great work, Sayo-chan! // Heheheh... And to think, none of them have any idea that their top-secret meeting is being spied on through the power of super-plain ghost Sayo-chan's spiritual body...
[Bottom label: Superfine spiritual cable constructed from Sayo-chan's hair; certified almost completely undetectable (by Rakan-san)]
[Left label: Sayocchi's host doll]
[Top-left label: Super-plain ghost Sayocchi's main body]
[Top-right label: Epic spying!]
Shiori!Asuna: Sayo-chan, is Negi all right? // We couldn't really see what was going on during the first part... / It looked like things got kind of nasty...!
Sayo: Y - Yes, I think everything should be all right... // Asakura-san, Nodoka-san and Chisame-san... / ...the three of them sorted it all out. They were incredible!
Yuuna: What's the situation?
Sayo: It looks like that important man with the glasses is asking Negi to join him...
People: Join him?! What the heck?
Sayo: He's given Negi just three minutes to make his decision...

15
Shiori!Asuna: Join forces with that creepy glasses freak?! / No way!! Forget it!! // He's totally a bad guy!
Konoka: I don't know... // He seemed like a pretty nice sorta guy in the movie!
Makie: [aside]yeah, you're right...[/aside]
Konoka: It looked like he had a bit of a thing for Arika-sama, too.
Shiori!Asuna: He's just trying to trick you~~~! / [aside]even if he did like Arika-sama, he's still a creep![/aside]
Haruna: Nah, I'd say it's more a case of a straightforward, honest guy being twisted into a monster by the pressures of society. // You know, the old becoming-the-very-thing-you're-trying-to-fight deal.
Yuuna: Ohhhh, that would make sense! / [aside]I mean, I could hardly believe that kid and the glasses-freak we know were even the same guy...[/aside]
Haruna: At any rate, I think it's about time we all make sure we're ready to move. // If discussions break down, things are probably going to get messy fast. // C'mon, you get ready to move as well, Yue.
Yue: Eh...?
Emily: [aside]nngh... / no honorifics...[/aside]
Haruna: And you can leave, idiot.

16-17
Rakan: Rakan Banretsuken!!!
[TN: Uh, "Rakan Ten Thousand Blazing Fists"]
Rakan: Rasenshou!!
[TN: "Spiral Palm"]
Rakan: Aaaand... // RAKAN // DAIBOUTOU!!
[TN: "Rakan Mega Wild Throw"]
Rakan: Yeah... // I'm pretty impressed. // You were better than I expected. This was a pretty damn fun fight. But, well...

18
Rakan: Don't you think it looks like I've pretty much won? / ...Sorry, but... // I think it's about time I put an end to this.
Fate: *sigh*... / It would appear that you truly do understand nothing.
Rakan: Hm?
Fate: Besides which, even if you do defeat me, it will not "put an end" to anything. / I am but a pawn... // It is a pity, Jack Rakan. // This fight has been so enjoyable, and yet now I must defeat you. // Regardless of whether you win or lose...
Rakan: Hmm?
Fate: It is impossible for you to defeat me. // Truly... a pity.
[Insert text: Each situation approaches its conclusion... "Yes" or "no"...? "Victory" or "defeat"?]
