Hmmm, I don't think it's your usual EGL, not to mention that Ayaka isn't a EGL either, but it's close to the lolita-esque fashion. Don't forget that EGL isn't the only lolita-esque fashion in Japan, the pink cute style is also popular over there too. It's a darker colour, sure, and not as frilly. Perhaps it's the evening gown lolita style . ?:-)

Well, in the Kyoto thread she did say she
Spoiler:


I wanna see Ayaka take a more prominent role in the story anyway. BTW, has anyone actually translated the latin and worked out what powers each card bestows?

It made sense; I'm not sure if Negi has gotten the meaning of the Magister/Minister correct; he wants to be able to protect Asuna and the others, but the thing is that the Minister is meant to protect him, so he goes down the road of being able to fight hand to hand as well as with magic. Not that it's wasted time though, because it'll make him well-rounded.
