Rooboy put it a lot better than I did in the spoilers... <points to that post for a better explanation of the romance>.
opinion: After Love Hina (manga) and now most of the way through Negima (manga), I'm of the opinion that Akamatsu is a better premise and idea guy than a story execution whiz. Even that is somewhat qualified by the fact his premise and ideas are a collaboration with a team of minions. I guess it is kind of like watching a Python comedy episode: about 50% brilliance, 30% hack, 20% "wtf" (then throw 5d20 for the next episode's percentage)... sometimes the story shines, sometimes you'd like to slug him for grabbing the slapstick so often. I enjoy reading the stuff... its just that sometimes I shout "gah, stop going THAT way, this other direction was more interesting!"

It's still going strong. As a matter of fact, it seems like we only know a little more then we ever did about Negi's dad and/or the mysteries of Mahora Academy - there's still quite a ways to go. I'd guess we're probably somewhere between half way and two thirds of the way done - but all any of us would be doing is guessing at this point.

Hm, I don't recall ever hearing anything about Albireo and the library, where's that in the manga?
Also, here's a new question for the topic... Dunno if this has been answered somewhere else, but in volume 8, how the hell did Kotaro get his hands on that bottle in the first place? Last edited by Azure22; 2006-11-09 at 18:49. Reason: Should've put a quote in from the start... XD...And I need to learn how to spell "Albireo," I've been calling him Albiero... |

As for Kotaro - we never see or find out what he did from when Kaede left him after the school trip to volume 8, all we have is when he says that he Spoiler:

Wow, if the girls in Negima qualify as shotacons (approx 4 years age difference) then so does my wife. Hrm, I'll have to tell her that tonight.
EDIT: Now that you've clarified your question below, I understand better what you're asking. No, it's not about underage sex either.

And I believe there's some magic.. and magical combat... oh and vampires,,, a robot ... various adventures.
Um, a few seconds at animenfo.com, funimation.com, or amazon.com could clue you in.

Spoiler for chapter 103, last page:
I think it's really ironic that I located the answer while just sitting and reading my Del Rey volume 12 (and yes, I checked against my copy of the scans before deleting them).
