The sprawling, activity-packed three-day Mahora Academy Festival
is under way. Overwhelmed and exhausted by his schedule, Negi
falls asleep and almost loses an entire day. But thanks to
Chao Lingshen's amazing pocket-size invention, Negi suddenly
has time to spare. So Negi goes on a date with Nodoka, patrols
the dangerous areas surrounding the legendary World Tree,
becomes accidentally possessed by strange magic, inspires
a heart-to-heart with usually secretive students, and prepares
to compete in a martial-arts tournament against opponents
who are more formidable than he ever imagined...
Volume
10 in the Negima! series features the continuing
adventures of ten-year-old, Negi Springfield. He has just
graduated from a British school for magic only to find himself
assigned to teach English in an all-girl's Japanese high school.
All Negi wants is to become a great wizard - but he's forbidden
to use magic in his new post.
I
have to admit to being thrown in at the deep end here. I hadn't
read any of the previous collections in this series when Volume
10 landed in my in-tray. But, to be perfectly honest,
it didn't really seem to matter that I wasn't fully up to
speed with the back story of these characters. It was fairly
easy to pick up what was going on.
There's
something for everyone here, cute teenage girls (the odd flash
of panties - a Japanese obsession), time travel, magic fighting
tournaments, and humour by the bucket load.
It's
probably advisable to start this collection from the beginning.
I know I'll be adding the previous volumes to my shopping
list.
