New chapter gave us something important about Touta. He is a mimic (and seemingly a very good one at that). He stated he tends to copy anyone he deems impressive and if this in not a new thing post memory loss he may have a lot more talent and training in his back ground then has been let on. It might even be why he can't use magic. Someone might have sealed him to keep him from copying and using it.

I seem to remember another character who was a mimic with an unknown past who had no inherent magic...

I also felt this was very out of place. It feels unnatural and I think it would be ok to keep it as an honorific or drop the honorific unless dealing with a person who requires one.

Pretty good chapter. Nice to see Touta explaining more about why he lives that way.
I guess Touta may really be a mix of vampire and magic erebia being, probably making some kind of immortality even stronger than a vampire like Eva, and being on the level of Karen's. If you mean chapter 22, there is only one out for now and is a fan translation.

and no, I don't think he is getting money, either. the only one is the Crunchyroll version by the twins, which is the official version.

So, I've been thinking...UQ Holder is a story about "immortals". Negi was unkillable when Negima ended...The Mage of the Beginning was "ceaseless". Seeing as there is the probability of battles between immortals in the future is definitely high, do you think we'll ever see the fight between Negi and the Mage of the Beginning, even in a flashback arc? I think we'll see more Mage of the Beginning Type immortals cropping up later in series so it's definitely a possibility (that I hope Akamatsu will fulfill).
Or perhaps, there's also the possibility that we will see her again considering that she was only said to be defeated but was never said to be eliminated. Granted, this is probably a bit late to be thinking of this possibility...I'm sure someone else has before this...

If Negi was alive, he would have to be antagonist, either brainwashed, or on side of evil "out of pragmatism". And considering Touta is protagonist only way these two can fight each other is if there was someone at least as much strong as MotB or stonger and it would be near to the end.

And for those who don't know, the Twins are continuing their adaptation style they used in Negima!, so there's consistency there. As to chapter 23, based on the spoilers (and at the risk of angering more Touta fans), looks like Touta may finally get that beating I think he deserves in order that he become a better character.

so someone who is so strong that he able to kill his child with leaving his grandchild half dead with memory lose maybe that send Negi in Vengeance quest to kill every last one of them and die at last battle? |

Most normal Shonen protagonists are also like that, which is, for instance, why Naruto can generally act like a moron and yet give 'deep sage insight' when talking to an enemy or developing 'good fight strategies' in a combat.

Even Negi had some really dumb moments.
