First big bad? That's debatable. Chigusa was certainly the first (Real) villainous character to splash down, but her spotlight was short lived the moment Fate ran in and petrified everyone and their mother in the manor. Chig's ending was basically 'blasting off at the speed of light' Team Rocket style when the big insane-o' demon was blown to itty bitty pieces. The first real Big Bad to make scene AND be pose a significant threat was Chao. (I don't include Fate due to his entire nature being shrouded in a cloth about this big at the time, who disappeared from the story before shanking Negi with a pointy rock. Even then he wound up becoming a mere rival.)
So how did Herrmann get in and not her? Who knows, maybe he left more of a impression then she did. There was hope that he would make another appearance.
