Santa and Kuroumaru raised flags this chapter :lmao, Kuroumaru especially, too girly, Touta is building the weirdest harem ever.

He accepted everything and his sister challenged him, I wonder if he will try to return to UQ or if his three friends will stay and train with him.

Yeah, the dating flags were a bit over the top.

Anyway, we have one year of training and adventures ahead of us. I wonder if his sister will be akin to Rakan in the end. She looked more like the princess of country, what with her skin color and her hair.

How kind of her to give him a year. I wonder if the other will have learned to stop falling over themselves by then.

To me it kinda looked like santa was the only one who was not weird about this. Kirie and kuromaruo definitely raised said flags... It is true that this is the weirdest harem ever. An old little girl and a genderless being who can't decide whether to fist pump or blow tota.

The explanation that tota is a clone does not quite add up though. He does not look like negi, rather he does seem to take a bit after the konoe folk. Odds are tota was made from the genetic material of negi and the konoe in order to get an even stronger bloodline. I wonder how old tota actually is. Perhaps he is not even 4 years old and what he had were fake memories altogether.

So, back to the mahora martial arts tournament... A year should be more than enough for tota to grow as strong as he needs to to face that girl. Of course, the girl will probably grow stronger too. Tota will need to get his act together, he needs to master his ki and at least master the basics of magic during that time. He will probably never be as good as negi in that regard but I do think he is more like the thousand master anyways. Considering tota's talent its not unrealistic for him to reach the top of the world within that year.

As for that girl... I wonder whose genes she has? She probably has negi's genes along with those of someone else... Perhaps the demon clan girl from his class? Or perhaps she was given rakan's genes. It would kinda fit with her swordsmanship.

Yeah the clone thing is weir, it's not enough to explain everything for now.

According to her, they cloned Negi because he could not have children but this too doesn't explain everything. First, is magic talent inherited? I know Nagi was a genius and that it was sometimes brought up in Negima but never confirmed, it magic talent was inherited, it would mean that Nagi is the descendant of super magicians, that's hard to believe. They need to clarify if you can mix genes but I don't think you'd need to clone Rakan, if asked I am sure he would be willing to procreate :D and he should still be alive.Assuming Konoka married Setsuna and her talent in magic, it's possible that Touta has Negi and Konoka genes.

Besides Rakan, the best swordsmen were Asuna, Godel, Setsuna, Eishun and that megane girl. They were pretty much all Shinmeiryu users and her sister doesn't seem to master it. She could be a clone of Asuna but it would mean they took her DNA(?) before she slept, she has a copy of her Arfifact after all. Godel was with them when they revealed Negi's immortality and Asuna's price to pay and he said being immortal was an advantage, he also married Hakase, maybe they did something...

Well, it does seem like there are several instances of magical talent being inherited. nagi, negi... The konoe family... Genetics being related to magic would not be weird. Of course, that does not take anything away from people without lineages. Rakan is probably the single strongest individual we have seen safe for eva and the guy as far as we know did not start out with any innate talent. If anything negima went out of its way to make the point that he did not have any special aptitude or attitude towards anything, he was just normal and worked his way to the top.

I suggested rakan had something to do with the little girl mostly because of her skintone/race?. It does not match those of any other strong people we know. Add in the swordsmanship and it makes a pretty good clue. Of course, if they can put in negi/rakkan dna into someone then it would be fitting if they got even more people in the mix too. So she just might have dna from a bunch of people. Now, if she did have asuna's abilities I would think she'd already display them.

Is rakan supposed to be alive? Was he from a long lived race or something?

He should be alive, I think he is from the same race as the princess who said being 30 years old is like being a 10 years old human, Hellas race or something.

Well, going by explanation gave of rakkan when he fought him during the tournament, doesn't his appearance during negima match his age?
http://www.mangareader.net/209-15076-4/mahou-sensei-negima/chapter-243.html

I could buy him just being 140 years old aging normally. He is that ridiculous to begin with....

He might look his age but it probably stops at a certain period. The princess also looked 30.

Found the page confirming that he is from the Hellas race.

Here

He is definitely alive.

Ahhh, that's good news. If he is going to show up in the manga to provide some wisdom through his fists then this would be about the right time to do it. Its about time tota gets someone to train him properly. If 30 years is only 10 years for someone of hellas and it has been 80 years since negima then it has still been a decent amount of time for him, an equivalent to almost 30 years. Rakan at least should be an old man now. An absurd and ridiculous old man that imparts wisdom through his fists.

All of Touta's friends are awesome :XD. Kirie's ability is very useful, If I was one of their enemies I would do everything to kill her first.

She is playing the same role as Fate in Negima, the chapter was not really bad but not really interesting either.

Kirie saved everyone as expected.

I'm just not that interested in whatever story we're building here. Instead of having Touta meet Eva next week, it's time for a Ken-special break week.

Did we really need a chapter to create motivation? I'm fairly certain Touta didn't need more than he already had. Now we get to the actual training arc, I guess.

I wonder how old kirie really is. With her ability to go back to checkpoints she could easily be extremely old, perhaps more so that good old eva. She could have days of her life erased countless times...

Hmm, did Touta actually lose his eye for the foreseeable future, then?

So Touta is rank A without a finishing move, I think it's too early though, a finishing move is good but he only uses sword techniques and a bit of Ki for his moves. That Karen remind me of Negi and his Kenpo moves.

I know that skeleton was in Negima but how does he know that Touta is his grandson? Someone must have informed him.

I don't get why he is wearing an eyepatch.

Tota niichan looks great with an eyepatch and so powerful.

Santa could have fought too.

I just read the chapter when that skeleton appeared, he's pretty strong, Negi was using Magia Erebea when he fought him and he gave up because he knew Negi was stronger, he knew about Magia Erebea too. And he's A rank, if Touta has to beat someone like that it means he'll have to be at a level comparable to Negi with his Magia Erebea(when he didn't master it completely) :o.

Touta's eye appeared to explode while he was talking to the "Sister" last chapter.
Why would it take so long to regenerate though?
