The problem here is if that's the case, a characters growth is completely meaningless if they regress back into their own habits. Hell, that would practically mean it didn't happen to begin with.
I'd really like to see the girls function without the damn kid 99.9% of the time, but since this is by in large a harem series...

If Akamatsu-sensei's new manga picks Negima! back up, then it is all academic -- he needed a break, but he didn't want to leave fans hanging on for a year or longer, assuming he didn't get a new deal with Kodansha (with Akamatsu-sensei retaining copyrights but granting license to Kodansha to publish and distribute the manga). So, he gives a quick wrap up chapter.

Honestly, you could put a semi-retarded chimp on a typewriter and get a better transition from one portion of the series to the next. Flat out giving us a conclusion to the whole song and dance and proceeding to pick it back up seems like the worst possible thing you can do with a series.
