Maybe a story revolving Ema...? And an male harem! (just joking...) Your suggestion works.

he almost didn't get to write it. The publishers forced him to write another story like Love Hina when he really wanted to write an action manga. He's quite clever with how he gave them what they wanted and then slyly worked his way into what he wanted. lol! Last edited by cyberdemon; 2010-08-21 at 22:22. |

He clearly does better on love-comedies.

darn looks like the special chapter is only supposed to be 6 pages long.
The publishers originally forced him to do that. He just really wanted to do an action manga and by the time they realized it he'd already led it down the way he wanted it to go, |

Even if Negima is all messy and annoyingly ecchi at times, it's still practically one of the few manga in the market that captures the spirit of JRPG adventure fun -- far, far better than every uninspired actual JRPG to manga adaptations out there. |

I must be missing something.....I could've sworn Love Akamatsu wrapped up Love Hina with volume 14 a long time ago.
Is he doing a new Love Hina-related project? Why after all this time, and why with a series he finished? Not that I'm complaining, mind you.

Negima has made Akamatsu to grow as an author so much over his Love Hina days it isn't funny. LH had some charm and a few lovable characters, but at the end of the day, it was just another romantic comedy that happened to hit it big at the exact right time (when the genre needed a revival). |

Well maybe this time Akamatsu sensei will establish more about his universe. Already Negima has established both Love Hina and Ai ga Tomaranai (AI Love You) co-exists.
I wouldn't mind some cameo of Hitoshi, the Namba sisters and Cindy. Also wouldn't it be fun to see Mei Sakura as a character in Love Hina rather than a cameo appearance? What if it is set during 2003 just as Mei returned from magic school? Meeting her sister Naru and the gang? Oh Sara definitely Sara must come back. She is the basis of several of the Negima girls. Namely Asuna, Eva and Chisame. |

The LH special has been released today.
Although it was of course a bit predictable right at the start, it was still amusing (I did chuckle about the "true" meaning of D at the end ). Akamatsu definitely delivered something LH (and not really a mere attempt to make a half ass omake) and it is noteworthy to see how he could keep the original touch, whereas he definitely polished his drawing skills. Well, one would notice already the stark difference if you were to compare the first chapter of Negima and the 300th chapter (well it was already a giant leap even around the Kyoto arc), but it is even more noticeable in LH case. It would definitely be nice to see LH and AGT "fully" updated (AGT was a tad misleading with its modern cover, while the original design was surely outdated ).

Love Hina was way better than Negima. I wish he'd conclude it and start a new manga. |

In a nutshell, this special 6 pages one shot spans around the time Keitaro and Naru are still trying to get in Todai (so unfortnately, no, nothing close to epilogue/aftermath of the wedding whatsoever). From the looks of Keitaro's grades, it is probably around Volume 5-6, after their first failed attempt together but before Mutsumi shows up.
