There is definitely tongue action there!
oh boy… Negi and co. are in deep ****!
Whoa, WHOA. I never expected something like that O.O
new jackass show up but why negi have to make that face he already supper strong so he should just kick all of them already( i really dont like that when i saw negi in that face it alway mean somethign bad about to happen again)
srry for my poor english
Maybe it’s because he said something really important, like Arika, his mother… just a teory, huh.
Alright. Some KonoSetsu smoochin’! Chuuu! It’s about damn time. It looks like they might have finally made a Pactio in the process as well. Akamatsu-sensei has been teasing us with this for years. I’m glad he finally went ahead and did it.
I foresee a SetsunaxNegixKonoka love triangle…
Note: to all FanFiction writer please be reasonable don’t write any more KonoSetsu stories, there is too many as it is
The governor’s line is interesting… “The witch that has once destroyed her own country and people, the Queen of calamity, Arika Anarkia Entiofushia’s orphan…” Negi is confirmed to be Arika’s son I guess but I wonder what happenned to get her such a title… Oo
It seems to shake Negi quite a bit… I think this will worsen his encroachment since he seems to get into Yami mode on his own quite easily when he’s in that state… I wish there was some more lines on the spoiler images >.<
That line seems almost to refer to Asuna as I read it. However, I’ll wait to see more (no new spoilers yet, but the person who posts the big images usually doesn’t do so until later).
holy fricken tongue action…. <3 about time akamatsu-sensei.
and i hope negi’s new foe isnt too strong like rakan….i feel like the soldiers plus the little boy might be quite a handful for negi.
No mater how I look at it, that governor guy is done for. Pissing Negi of at his curent power, that’s way beyond reckless. He’s probably just woried that Negi or Asuna will ask for the throne or something along those lines. As for what he says abour Arika, this probably means that she had to chose betwin saving the region afected by the “wide range magic disapearence” and the Ala Rubra + Asuna.
Gatou asked her if she’s allright whith it.
As for the kiss and pactio, well, it’s about time.
But won’t it cancel the pactio with Negi?
I mean, Setsuna can’t have two masters, right?
I also agree that the fact he said “entiofushia” makes it more likely he’s talking about Asuna (remember her really long name includes entiofushia). Also, I totally agree with you that there’s trouble with having two pactios, but I don’t so much see it as a problem with Setsuna (having 2 masters) as it is a problem with Konoka (being both a master and a servant).
Is that Kamo’s tail I see in the left corner of the 4th pic?
The being a master and servant bothers me too. However, Akamatsu-sensei established that it could be done with Negi in the recent tournament — Negi was still magister and the battle harem were still ministra while at the same time Negi was minister to Theo.
I think that Rakan will appear before things get too out of hands.
And then Rakan will tell Negi everything.
It would be nice if Negi let’s the governor capture the fake Asuna on purpose, if he realised she’s fake after seeing Yue in the city, and not captured.
As for geting away without actualy fighting, well, Tatsumia Mana would be the key to that(Negi not fighting, Mana sniping). I think it’s about time she and Takamichi show up, after all, Takamichi allready contacted Rakan about hte situation even before Negi learned the Magia Erebea(chapter 204, page 6). With Takamichi around, nobody would dare arest Negi.
Anothe turn of events would be that Negi sudenly changes to his adult gladiator form, and pretend to have been hiding from the press.
ohh…so many posibilities…
Asuna is said to be arika’s sister not her child so i;d say it;s more like he talking to negi. Also no one has seen asuna in 20years so i dont think he would know who she really is.
Would Nodoka’s artifact be able to see through Shiori-Asuna..?
Referring to Negi as an orphan would suggest Arika is or is believed to be dead.
I doubt The Cosmo Entelectesia intended for Ostia to be destroyed, that was probably the result of a magic ritual gone wrong because of the Ala Rubas interference. This is why the govenor hates Arika.
Regarding Asuna’s relationship with Arika, as far as I know, Akamatsu-sensei has not stated what that relationship is. Much as my Negi=Nagi theory, Asuna being Arika’s sister is simply a theory at this time. People assume it to be true based on the limited information available, just like people assumed that Eva had a pactio with Chachamaru for the longest time when that is not the case.
Now, if there’s a spot where it was clearly spelled out that Asuna is Arika’s sister, then someone can tell me where that is.
Don’t you think that the governor guy might actually be Fate in disguise?
AstroNerdBoy – In Rakan’s story, chapter 231 page 2, Rakan asks Nagi if Arika is Asuna’s older sister. Nagi says he doesn’t think she wants to talk about Asuna. Kinda gives the ideea that they’re half-sisters or something.
Well, if you take their eye colour in consideration, they’re definetily related by blood.
But when it comes to powers, Asuna has the magic cancel and Arika doesn’t.
Hmmm…diferent mothers perhaps.
Doubt it could be diferent fathers, emperors don’t change so easely.
i think konaka and setsuna pactios with negi are going to void now or something. i rememebr before when Akamatsu-sensei made patio cards for ako it was a healing type one and i dont need negi needs more of those… and he’ll be getting several new partners so wont need setsuna or something
i feel like arika is asuna’s sister because in last weeks 251 raw, there was a colored picture of ala rubra PLUS arika. arika also has hybrid eyes or blue and green eyes just like asuna…but the colors are switched… like blue and green then green and blue….
so with those genetic similarities, i’m think arika is asuna’s sister…
Mary-Anne – Shiori/Asuna , from the reaction after the swich, isn’t aware herself that she is a fake. So Nodoka’s artefact would be useless even they realise she’s fake and try to interogate her. Auveruncus isn’t taking any risks – took him 10 years to complete that technique.
It’s probably an advanced form of the one he used when he framed Nagi and the Ala Rubra 20 years ago.
The technique could probably dispelled only by Fate, or his acomplices. Think about it, in the midst of batlle, Negi is about to defeat Fate and then, at a few words from him, Shiori reverts to her true form, and helping Auveruncus get away or beat Negi.
Konoka’s pactio with Negi should still be valid. Setsuna however is now only Konoka’s partner(Reference Negima!? Eva’s pactio with Asuna broke the pactio with Negi).
I foresee EXTREME weirdness in the next few chapters.
1.Konoka x Setsuna, Camo is gonna take a picture I bet.
2.Akira Enthiofusia, Asuna’s sister or Asuna’s daughter?
3.Asuna Possibly Negi’s Aunt, Sister, or Half-Sister?
4.Negi an Orphan? While this does confirm Arika is Negi’s mommy, that would also mean that Nagi and Arika are, or are believed to be, dead.
5.Massive Army ready to kick Negi’s @$$.
6.Konoka x Setsuna, FOR THE WIN!!!
A Konoka/magistra and Setsuna/ministra pactio does not impact their pactio with Negi. I actually considered the possibility that a Negi/minister and Konoka/magistra pactio might be more advantageous since Negi’s basically supplying power to the entire AA without any backup for himself (except for Theo, currently).
You aren’t the only one who doesn’t know the password for the new images. I think that poster on 2ch who uploaded the images is just being a right jerk about the whole thing.
Yeah, I see that other Japanese people are confused too. Weird that the original poster would be so cryptic.
Wasn’t Asuna born after the great war? And weren’t Nagi and Arika already gone by that point? In that case, Asuna couldn’t be Negi’s sister.
But then again, Negi’s younger than Asuna, so…
My second thought is that I don’t think that’s Fate in disguise. Cause there are lots of guardians behind him and all. And I don’t really think Fate dares to come out of his hiding-place now that Negi’s so crazy strong. But I don’t know. In wich case, this seems to be a real exciting chapter =)
The Governor-General does indeed say Arica’s name. Now, who he’s referring to when he mentions her “orphan” isn’t clear from these previews. We need better context. The only thing the “orphan” line indicates right now is that Arica is either dead or she disappeared, most likely along with Nagi.
In any case, if he’s referring to Negi, then that would lead a good deal of evidence that Arica is his mother (we need independent confirmation from Rakan and/or Theo). If he’s referring to Asuna, then it means Asuna is Arica’s daughter, not her sister. They are clearly related by blood, as indicated by the common family name and the shared heterochromia, but exactly how they are related hasn’t been cleared up yet.
Finally, the new batches of spoiler pics confirms that Setsuna and Konoka made a Pactio. However, it looks like we’ll have to wait until Ch 253 to find out what ability it’ll confer to Setsuna. I hope it’s something good. Maybe something that has to be activated by a kiss from Konoka. Yuri powers, activate! X3
FilleBerriie – is this the first chapter of MSN you ever read?
When the war started, Asuna had allready been around for a while.
How could she posibly be Negi’s sister?
On the other hand, Nekane could be a part of Asuna, an artificial spirit, like in Fake Eva’s case.
No! Setsuna is supposed to kiss Konoka to be her ministra not the other way round
Isn’t it supposed to be Setsuna kissing Konoka to be her ministra, not the other way round?
@TheCuriousFan: C’mon now, everyone knows the most likely triangle is Negi/Nodoka/Yue. (^_~) Or at least I think so.
A kiss is still a kiss.
to arimareiji: i know this but I still like that pairing.
@CuriousFan: I know, just teasing. True, I love me some Konoka/Setsuna and Negi/Nodoka – but I love being surprised even more, as long as the story flows well.
Heck, I’m even willing to wonder about the long shot of Negi/Ku based on nothing more substantial than Chao’s possible ancestry… and I’m a true believer in the ultimate long shot of Paru/Chamo. I just wonder which one of them changes species. (^_~)
Wait, did I say Asuna’s daughter? Lol, my bad, I meant mother 😛
