The main problem I have is that he said so many times that Magic World arc wasn't the last one. Well now it looks like it was which is very frustrating. I don't think it got the axe, it sold about a million copies last year.

that is from 2/8 issue I think. so the breaks are 2/15 and 2/22.
the last 3 chapters would be 2/29, 3/7, and 3/14. though maybe AK will take a break again in between so we still don't know the exact date for last chapter.

the last chapter will be chapter 355 then

I really agree with you on that. and with this 100 years thing, he can skip 100 years and not have a harem ending, cause all the girls would be dead by then

ah you got that wrong there lol. the magic world arc is not the last arc. the random-useles-sport-festival arc is the last one.

Spoiler for end:
"A really long time, 100 years, there's no way we gonna put it in vain. Negima until the end it's 3 chapters" it says
lol, from that sentence only it looks like KA will jump again 100 years in just 3 chapters

oh well, the sign was there. but I really dissapointed AK threw away all the flags. Is it got axe or AK got bored we could only guess. My guess is he got bored?
Is that from the newest chapter?

1 chapter about confession on whom Negi really likes, 1 chapter about Nagi + Arika and 1 chapter about Asuna's reunion with Negi?

IMO with this breaking news, unless Akamatsu-sensei by some miracle manages to bring Asuna back into the story before the end (not likely since that would make the build up to her sealing look meaningless and contrived but not impossible), he makes Negi remain celibate for 100 years (might happen but puberty will make it hard for him to resist temptation should he ever go through puberty) or he does a 100 year timeskip (not likely), I can say that this development pretty much makes the NegixAsuna pairing seem more unlikely than ever therefore validating Sakurako's comment in Chapter 346.

I wonder if in japan the readers are writing to KA asking him to please continue the manga. Hope it doesn't end so soon, I really liked it so far.

maybe its like 3chapters till the final arc ?

since we still dont know about nagi... not mention Arika where the hell is she...the gravemaster identity...

so no deamon world (venus) arc.

seriously its WAY WAY WAY WAY too rushed.... it was wasted at lesat 10chapters for the sport festival that brought nothing in it... and now just end the manga with just 3chapeters is just bad writing... fans will be pissed to heavens if this happens...

if ka is tired(health issue,getting old...),he can stop the manga for two years,and after plenty of rest,continue the story where it left of.
trying to conlude it in only three chapt. is a dire mistake.

Wait... WHAT???

Isn't supposed Negi would end with a girl we'll don't expect?
Because if it's really happens a timeskip, this is almost 100% sure Asuna ending...
Maybe Negima got axed? Or why would Akamatsu rush the ending that way?
Sorry, my mind just got blown...

I'm frankly more worried about all the other plot related points instead of Negi's "final" relationship or the other 3-A girls stories.
Right now, there are still way too much things to consider: Nagi/Mage of the Beginning (Istanbul anyone?), Arika, Senate's actual agenda and reasons why they want Negi, Demons' clan (Hermann especially), conclusion for Eva's curse, Negi's childhood from his birth to his mage apprenticeship (thus before being entrusted to Nekane & co), Chao's fate, Negi's 9th spell, Albireo's status, Master of the Grave, etc.

Honestly, if Akamatsu doesn't even bother expanding these points (sequel, prequel, material book, whatever the means), it will just be beyond rushed: it will be plain incomplete from a simple plot perspective. And then, we have the insult to the injury: shafter characters.

Depends on the kind of conclusion here. It could be that given the demands for Negima, AK needs to do something this dramatic to get the break needed for the next part of the story.

In a sense, Negima is a victim of its success.

So... it will become anoher School Rumble WTF-ending?
Please Akamatsu sensei, don' do that.

Hayate will end soon after its hiatus too because it became more serious Hata expected?

My opinions on this:

1. I'm definitely siding with those people who feel that Negima is going to suffer the same problem that School Rumble suffered when the original manga ended, especially given all the storylines that got skipped over and condensed to just comments in Negi's copy of the class roster.

2. As of right now, we don't know the direction that Negima will go in the next three chapters. Hence, I can see maybe the next two focusing on resolving the "who does Negi love" question (I really want it to be Nodoka, especially given how little screen time she had after the Magic World arc) and his confrontation with the LM, with the finale being set in the future. However, if Ken actually does skip 100 years into the future in chapter 353, then probably expect a number of fans wanting to go all "Misery" on Ken Akamatsu.

You're not alone in wanting this to happen.

Not gonna beat around the bush - I haven't cared at all about Negima for a long time because [tl;dr blah blah blah removed] and I found that it just didn't anything for me.

That said, I have no idea what's going on or who's doing what and I'm not gonna find out either, nor will I bother reading any more Negima, but I can't help but think this is a pretty bad way to switch and cut to end, even with the limited information on the link.

But I guess I could've said the same thing about the movie, along with a bunch of reviewers.

So I guess it's just par for the course, can't expect the world for it.

Adios Negima.

my prediction for 3 next chapter anyway
  1. Negi and 3-A girls make some graduation party.... then suddenly Lifemaker (or Chao Linshen or something powerful) appear!
  2. battle between Negi and co vs final boss
  3. Negi and co is defeated. Final Boss the talk about stuff( what happens on the future, why they need to get stronger). then some hint of what happens on time skip like going to mars or some practicing
