魔法先生 ネギま！Chapter 292 (Images)
Here’s what I know many of you have been waiting for — the original-sized, sneak-peek SPOILER images for Mahou Sensei Negima! Chapter 292 as brought to you by anonymous Japanese fans (click pic to make bigger, y’all).
Some OAD ads (and yeah, I’ve got to watch episode 3 of Another World).

Glad to see these!
I see that Luna-Shiori comes out as Asuna.
I see Luna disguised as Asuna, I think this chapter will reveal what Negi’s plan will be.
I want more!!
It appears that these spoilers come from the end of the chapter and the training “arc” has come to an end.
Given how the chapter ends with a massive fleet approaching the palace (for all the good it will do given Cosmo E have a 1 shot kill for the majority of the populace) I wonder if Negi will join forces with Kurt directly or use them as a diversion and try to sneak into the palace while Fate’s attention is on the fleet.
I also want to know if Shiori as Asuna is still unaware of who she really is or if there is a “lower” setting that allows Shiori as Asuna to keep her awareness that she is not really Asuna and how to change back
Hoho the situation is getting interesting.
First of all I wonder why Negi asked Shiori to return to Asuna-form (I assume it was Negi who asked cause he is the only one Shiori would listen to) it may be that Negi is trying to outsmart Fate, Fate is unaware of the fact that Shiori’s true form was revealed and May try to use her during the Gravekeeper Palace battle, like asking her to backstab someone, or would ask her for information concerning Ala Alba. Negi being aware of Shiori’s existence would be careful and prepared for whatever Fate is preparing And {as someone mentioned earlier) would feed Fate false information through Shiori. Though I have a feeling that using Shiori against Fate wouldn’t be exactly in Negi’s style, he is a rather good and nice fellow and this kind of behaviour is rather Bastardish
Apparently Kurt and Takamichi discussed their differences in a rather… bruise-inducing way. They are more than likely friends (if only temporary) right now and Megalo fleet is heading for Gravekeeper Palace to give Ala Alba a hand (no one wants the world to be destroyed so they are fighting a common enemy), though it’s not shown there is a high possibility that Theo and Hellas, as well as Seras and Ariadne may join the fun (it’s such a shame that Vrixas Nagasha got pwned T_T I wanted to see that Bahamut-look-alike in action, But there is a chance that we will see Ricardo’s ship in action ^^) Anyway it appears that we will have a beautiful replay of Ala Rubra vs. Cosmo Entelecheia. It’s a shame Emily isn’t around here, I wanted to see her ask for an autograph from Negi as Seras did those twenty years ago. Now the question is what kind of forces can Fate and his party field, a lot of Shadow demons for sure, maybe a Cthulhu or two (GO Chachamaru, Go Flying Cat) ah this is going to be EPIC
Drive by comment as I’m about to shift to another project for the rest of the day.
It is looking as I expected in that volume 32 is going to be relatively mild and just set the stage for the action to kick back up in volume 33 (chapter 295).
Here are some ~screenshots~ of the aforementioned Negima OVA, feel free to use them if necessary :O

Nice to see that there are spoilers out this week. ^^
Given that there are only the first three pages of the chapter out so far, I’m guessing the rest of the chapter will focus on Ala Alba’s game plan.
On another note, I see that Negi still has those gloves on…. Who’s betting he’s gonna go berserk again and have his students somehow bring him back from the darkness using “love power?” -__-;;
I also wonder if Makie & Co. are still in the globe with Takane and Mei testing out their artifacts….
Interesting that Negi retains the visible scar on his arm in the OAD from where they glued it back on.
Seems we dont get to see Godel vs Takamichi fight =( they both look banged up seems like Godel joins them now going to be interesting if Godel becomes Setsunas master or the like
The French are speculating that the manga is coming to an end by next year.
Link here.
Thanks to chusetto for this link. ^_^
ANB-> They’re just wrong. After reading your link, I read akamatsu sensei blog last entries and the only thing he’s saying is that we’re finally reaching the LAST BATTLE. Not the last arc. So it may be the last battle of negima (I sure hope it’s not 😡 ), or just the last battle of this arc.
Either way, I still think that Negima will end next year anyway, but Akamatsu sensei didn’t said anything about this on his blog.
And I don’t even want to know how the heck did they manage to translate “battle” as “arc”.
I dont think it will end for true.
First of all Negi has to find his parents or something about their whereabouts.
Then it can maybe end. But i think if this will happen and Negima come to an end, there will be a second series. Maybe the setting takes place a few years after now and after a short break for Akamatsu.
Negi could be 15 or so. And he and his Friends can come up again with new adventures.
But in my opinion… I dont think it will really end so fast.
On the Negima ending front, while I think that at the end of this arc we may see the end of Cosmo E as a threat there is a good chance there will still be the following issues to resolve
1) Preventing the inevitable destruction of the magic world and the aftermath of current events.
2) Whereabouts of Nagi and Arika – These could well be separate events and I suspect Arika could be magically disguised in a similar fashion to Shiori and is already close to Negi or Asuna (Nekane and Ayaka are my prime suspects in this scenario)
Assuming that the main story will end when class 3A graduate which is March in story terms and IIRC currently late August in the “real” world, then unless akamatsu is sick of Negima or wishes to do what anonymous suggests (timeskip and relaunch) then there is more than enough story left to keep things going for a few years yet.
More spoiler pictures have been posted. Looking at the final pics, it looks like the next chapter is going to focus on Negi vs. Tsukuyomi (who has shown up and attacked Collet).
