    This year's 38th issue of Kodansha's Weekly Shōnen Magazine is previewing the new manga series UQ Holder! by Ken Akamatsu (Love Hina, Negima! Magister Negi Magi) on Wednesday. The "near-future battle fantasy" series will debut in the following issue on August 28 with an 82-page chapter and a color opening page.

    In the decade since the world became aware of the existence of magic, the world has undergone massive upheaval. However, a boy named Tōta lives in seclusion in a rural town far removed from these changes. His ordinary life is highlighted by his magic-using female teacher and his supportive friends. When his tranquil daily life is disrupted, he embarks on a unique adventure.
    First chapter here:

    Spoiler:
    Clearly ChachaZero will rejoin the party, because she is already in Tokyo, sitting in the toy museum from Toy Story 2, telling visiting children to stab their friends, stab their family members, stab anyone really. ChachaZero, a toy for all ages.

    Time did Eva good.

    Spoiler:
    Also glad to know we start with happy happy choppy choppy fun times.
    Also ten bucks at least half the cast is related to Negima cast. Especially mop dude and ponytail girl.
    Also what is Edward Elric doing here.

    I'm in. Subscribing like a mofo. Akamatsu delivers as expected.
    McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.

    Welp, Akamatsu delivers. Time to see what happened to the Negimaverse after 10 years.

    It's way more than 10 years since the series takes place in like the 2060s. 10 years is just how long it's been since magic became public knowledge.

    Uuuuuu... New Akamatsu. Awesome!

    Spoiler:
    Eva Eva Eva! Her curse finally got lifted. A story with Eva as a core character. Be still my beating heart~.

    Looking forward to his town friends resurfacing as future badasses >.>

    Also, the grave... I want to know what happened!! Kiiii, teasers.


    Anyway I wonder if we'll see a random genre shift this time. It will probably be battle-like since he seems to like that stuff, but I'd be very interested to see what kind of elements will be thrown in on top of it. Totally needs a cooking battle arc!

    Levy is not impressed.

    Space opera or CARD GAMES ON MOTORCYCLES, please.

    Cyberpunk is fine, too. Let's go all Shadowrun on this bitch.

    There's no Tn'A in DFC. Barring of course the times she did transform but the point still stands!

    In my opinion she looks like a European trying to pass herself off as Japaneses and succeeding at it because Akamatsu can't drawn that many different faces.

    Also, since we don't know the the exact parentage Touta has in his lineage y'all better brace yourselves for some secret bloodlines to be revealed.

    It's not like we haven't seen her wear different looks before, it's just illusion magic.

    Illusion magic that sticks while she is sleeping, while she is gravely injured and while her magic is sealed.
    Might as well say she grew up.

    It's same type of magic as those pills Negi took that had the same effects along with Age Up.


    Still too early to determine anything. I'm just happy to have mellow cool-nee-chan Eva at all.

    On some level, I think that would be much much better. Though I admit I am dying to know what happened next after... everything else ended. Uguuu x.x

    But that's stupid. The adult form is the one most know her by, the one she wore in her days as the kind of mage who the fucking Underworld put a gigantic bounty on, why would she wear that while laying low?
