魔法先生 ネギま！Chapter 297 (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 297 as brought to you by anonymous Japanese fans (click pic to make bigger, y’all).
These two ad images for the OAD “extra” actually came out first, which was a bummer since I wanted SPOILERS first. ^_~
Update: Some more pages have been put out.
Update the 2nd: A few more images.

So the illusion continues…
well i wont be seeing this page translated for a year. now that one manga is dead i will have wait, which sucks because i buy every negima volume and this happens words can’t describe how angry i am right now
Other than to see referenced links, I never go out to OneManga and I’ve never missed a chapter. ^_~
everyone got their own dream-sphere
Setsuna – Naked Apron Konoka
Konoka – Eternal childhood playtime with Setsuna
Chamo – Mountains of Panties/Bras
Ako – Dates with Nagi
Sayo – Alive
Ku – Training with Negi
Akira – Date with Negi (?)
Yue – Grandfather alive
Nodoka – OT3 with Yue and Negi (LOL!)
Kotaro – Training with Negi
Natsumi – Dating aged-up Kotaro
Mana – Dating Club leader
Chacha – … drawing a blank on this one
Luna – OT3 with Negi and Fate (LOL!)
ROFLMAO OT3 NEGI AND FATE!
Hey guys don’t worry you can always go to mangafox for this, so don’t give up hope just yet.Also theres 1000manga, and animehut as well.
>ttgl multiverse ripoff
Wat ಠ_ಠ
Chachamaru appears to be with both Eva and Negi. That makes sense seeing as how Eva is her first master and she is loyal and loves Eva. Negi is also her magister and she has had feelings for him since volume 3. Thus, it makes sense that the two people Chachamaru loves most would be the ones she’d want to be with, even if they are wanderers.
it seems that the fan meltdown over Zazie has settled…
“Chacha – … drawing a blank on this one”
Looks like her and Negi, and someone that’s presumably Eva looking at the view from the edge of a cliff, with Chachamaru in a maid outfit.
I don’t see Chisame’s in there.
oh i fully see that its Chacha, Eva and Negi … just unsure what to make of it
@Sian
That isn’t the Club Prez… Mana looks like a kid and I’m guessing that’s her original Magister, the Tatsumiya relative.
Am I the only one seeing that there’s a unknown guy next to sayo? O.O
Interesting chapter. From what I saw on the AQS forums Chibi-mage is the older sister of Zazie, well it’s not certain that it’s CM, Zazie says that her older sister will be waiting outside. Does that mean that Zazie is a construct too?
A shame about OneManga closing down, I started to read Negima from the beginning again, and I wrote some observations with links.
Setsuna, Nodoka, and Luna’s dreams made me crack up.
Did they emphasized Yue’s hair? because she’s SOO cute!!! man, I agreed on Anonymous, Setsuna, Nodoka, Luna with the addition of Natsumi and Chamo….they crack me up…wait, where’s Makie’s and Yuuna’s? or possible Collete’s and Beatrix’s? BWAHAHAHA!!! I can’t stop laughing on Setsuna’s….HAHAHAHAHA!!
Thanks ANB for the spoiler pics and the info for the Extra OVA…you made my day ^_^
LoneWolfx03 -]===-
I don’t think Zazie is a construct.
Seems more to me at the end that Zazie wanted to test the true will of Negi to continue with his plan even when presented his perfect world
Am I the only one that thinks that, after the series is over (or even sooner, possibly), we’re going to look back on this chapter, with Negi playing happily with both his parents, and start bawling our eyes out? I mean, what are the odds that they’re both still alive now, much less that they’ll both be alive at the end…
yeah, it’s a real shame for onemanga to close down, but there’s always mangafox and 1000manga.
so last chapter is going to happen when? I mean just judging by the looks of it, it looks like it is close to wraps don’t you think? He knows his mother, finally sees his father, and what more can be answered once he finishes his deal with Fate. There isn’t much plotline left unless Akamatsu pulls something out of the thin air…could he? What’s stopping him? I mean Negima is pretty big in Japan as it is here sooooo…
P.S. This franchise could use a movie which could happen due to the success of the past OADs released.
… Where are Chisame’s and Paru’s Dreams? 😀
As i said earlier in the IRC, it’s gonna be explicit 😀
I really did hope they fill us details on their dreams at least (later or so)
OneManga will always be the best!
Even if at some point you cannot find scanlations at some point, there is also the option of reading the text translations (usually appear within 2 weeks of the raws coming out), which appear on mangahelpers.com, if you’d like to know what’s happening in the story.
Zazie’s older sister is that Zazie-look-alike that negi’s party encoutered just before, and that used her artifact to bring everyone in something that, according to Zazie (which is the one talking to negi inside this dream-like place) is close to the world that CE want to create: a world with no war, a world that could have been if things happened differently (like for negi, of fate have been utterly defeated 20 years ago) where people could leave happily.
Negi wants to meet fate. And doesn’t want to remain more inside this place with his father and mother because he’s saying that ” if I continue to be spoiled by my parents in there any longer, I’ll lose the will to leave this place”
And zazie to say: Are you sure? What is waiting directly outside is my older sister… She’s really powerful you know…
And negi to say: As I thought, you’re the real Zazie-san…
In the last panel, Negi is saying the password that is needed to escape this place. The password is “A little bit of courage”. The one who taught negi about the keyword is of course, Zazie.
That’s all for now folks!
Chismae’s dream would most likely be something like Negi never showing up in Japan.
Paru’s…
Yeah that’s most likely too X rated to show.
I wonder who that guy is near Sayo?
1000manga is part of OneManga for those saying “we still have 1000manga.” So it will have its series removed as well as OneManga.
Anyway, thanks ANB for the spoilers ^.^

?
He still hasn’t discovered the ultimate fate of his parents. And there’s still plenty of room for more threats. For instance, if you assume that Nagi has been imprisoned by something (a reasonable assumption, though not the only possible explanation for why Nagi’s missing), then you’re talking about a threat that took down someone who could fight Jack Rakan to a standstill (and probably without using the “Cheat Code of the Lifemaker”). While I’m not saying for certain that there will be an opponent like that, it’s yet another area that the story could branch out into.
Or in other words… MORE TRAINING SEQUENCES!!!
^^;;
Plus, Negi still hasn’t formed Pactios with a good-sized portion of his class.
😛
Wooo-ha! (^_^)
If that’s actually Mana’s old flame and not her club captain, I got lucky on the paradise predictions and scored 3 for 3. I’ve gotta say, though, the best ones were the unexpected ones. Setsuna’s naked apron fantasy and Shiori’s OT3 were a great laugh, and I loved Ku Fei training Negi to become the Ku clan heir.
I do wonder, though… with all the threesomes, is Akamatsu-sensei foreshadowing a Negi/Nodoka/Yue ending? (^_~)
one manga is the only way i can read negima. now one manga is dead i cannot read this manga again since negima selling is stop in my country
thats really suck (>.<) if anyone now how to get negima english scanlation please contack me
in sakura_no_mai2006@yahoo.com
is anyone now how to get negima english scantlation?????
since one manga dea i can’t read negima again because negima selling already stoppedin my country (T.T)
read it in mangafox
anyway nice dream setsuna +_+
I LOLed at Konoka’s hadaka apron scene. This whole Lotus Eater Machine bit’s fairly interesting, but it looks like Negi’s busting out of it.
And yes people, it sucks that OneManga is closing down. Looks like Negima 296 is the last thing I’ll get to read from them. While I started going there nearly three years ago to catch up on the latest Negima chapters (I own all Del Rey’s releases, but damn it sucks having to wait over a year), but since then they’ve introduced me to several series that I read regularly, all but a couple of which remain unlicensed. Looks like I’ll be heading to MangaFox, which I found to be an inferior site to OM. Of course, OM’s shutdown is obviously a result of the industry’s anti-scanlation crusade, which is a lose-lose for everyone because it doesn’t address the root causes of why there’s scanlations in the first place.

Nah… He came up with the ending after one too many drinks with Masaki Kajishima.
😛
Uhm, guys, the mobile site of onemanga is still up and running, it seems.
Just replace www with m, and be amazed. OR, if all else fails, add “Mahou_Sensei_Negima!/296” to the end of the last slash and be flabergasted.
Worked for me a minute ago~
Its sad that onemanga is closing down………….
However we can always find updated manga in the following sites:-
1.MangaReader
2.MangaHut
3.MangaVolume
4.bleachexile ; etc.
Just a thought – remember Al’s foreshadowing to Eva, that Nagi’s alive but she may never see him again?
Given a loose definition of alive, Negi may eventually find Nagi in KE… without a mortal body to return to. That would make for one heck of an entry to the TearJerker trope on TV Tropes. And one heck of a twist on ANB’s Negi=Nagi theory if Negi decides to provide him with one.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If it’s not clear, OneManga has posted 296 now. (I’m not sure why others are having trouble getting to it, but here’s the link.)
Overall, it’s a great chapter. Sensei sets a heartachingly sweet tone, and evokes earlier chapters quite effectively even without the dialogue. Plus, Iincho’s nosebleed literally had me ROBL (rolling on the bed laughing).
But it kinda makes me sad that while Nodoka’s paradise involves the OT3 reading books together, Negi’s paradise involves チョメチョメ with Asuna.
5 bucks on that, that’s Koemon next to Sayo XD
“5 bucks on that, that’s Koemon next to Sayo XD”
Now that’s a really, really good thinking. And the probability is actually quite high ImO. Interesting !
seems to be a nice chapter continuing the illusion seems negi is going to break out of it next chapter maybe hope so at least xD.
@anon: nearly every fanfic for Negima I’ve read has the headmaster having a crush on Sayo when she was still alive (or vice-versa) so that probably is Konoemon
Just something I want to say.
“There isn’t much plotline left unless Akamatsu pulls something out of the thin air…could he?”
People seem to keep forgetting when they mentioned that Nagi was last seen in Istanbul, which happens to also be where Fate was originally said to be from. At the very least, you’d think he’d have to go try and rescue his father.
Also, in regards to all the talk about onemanga shutting down. Honestly, it was never more than a backup manga site for me. There are a ton of other good ones out there if you just look. I’m partial to unixmanga myself.
I was never really a huge fan of Onemanga mainly is the fact they only hosted the fastest release of a manga and never bother to update ones of higher quality. There are TONS of manga sites still available however I imagine that they too will slowly start to dwindle. rest assured that you can always use IRC if worst comes to worst.
on a more relevant note SISTERS? if zazie wasn’t mysterious enough there are two of them? Do i see an OT3 with the zazie twins? still I really enjoyed this and the previous chapter, we had a chance to see negi’s reaction of seeing his mother and father once again. Man do i love this series
I can some what see what can happen next and can feel that the story will in fact not end anytime soon. I know the community is in the state of question because of Ken’s diary talking about the end of negima and zazie. However we still havn’t been told much of anything about zazie. nothing about her background the extent of her powers, or how or why her sister was in MW and Why she was the Warden of the dreams.
lastly since the closure of several manga sites i believe that this blog might see an increase of traffic.
ANB, have you heard about the issues Del Rey has been having lately with Kodansha? They have been dropping a few titles and I’m worried they may drop Negima…
This chapter was pretty good, lots of interesting dreams…Setsuna’s is so predictable ^_^;;
hahahaha… LOL Secchan’s dream sphere was the HADAKA APRON! What a rated X theme for someone so reserved!
O.o Negi x Fate x Shiori was something along the lines of unreal, yet plausible for dreamland…
Chamo – Ero-Ermine… expected of him…
Nodoka – Kinda expected…
Yue – I thought it would be something along the lines of Negi, but then, her memories were somewhat blurred…
Mana – O.x… wow, dating the club leader was unexpected.
Ku – Trainig with SENSEI/MASTER NEGI… and HER as a disciple… LOL
Chacha… … … …
all the rest that were seen… kinda expected them. ^^;
—————-
What a rated X theme for someone so reserved!
—————-
Bah! As Nodoka demonstrates whenever she accidentally mindreads herself, it’s those quiet, reserved ones that you need to watch out for!
😛
Yeah there’s still Istanbul.
It’s where Asuna’s flashbacks seem to be coming from also. So after this is over she might know what’s there.
Could it be that the ones who are not shown in those “dream bubbles” this chapter will be the one who fight Zazie’s sister? Cause it’s weird choosing to write about Akira’s dream instead of someone like Chisame, Haruna or Yuuna unless there will be more dreams in next chapter or KA wants to give us some hints.
Kaede might call out her artifact and hide herself in it before Zazie’s sister used her artifact. I don’t know about the others though.
@Anonymous ^ (Previous 2 Posts)
I believe that the reason Istanbul was chosen as a critical place in the story is because the history of Istanbul. After all, there have been many stages in the story and history that would completely make sense.
Istanbul came from the name “Stamboul” which was a common name of the 11th century (I think). It has a lot of historical significance. Prior to the renaming of the city, it was referred to Byzantion (or in Latin, Byzantium… named after the King Byzas) by the Greeks (Hence the name “Byzantine Empire”).The first known renaming of the city that I remember, this was when the Roman Empire split into two major factions which had 2 major languages… Greek in the East [Eastern Roman Empire] and Latin in the entire empire. This is probaby why the secondary spells are Latin and the primary spells are in Greek. The name of the city became “Constantinopolis” in the Latin form (anglicized as Constantinople)
In the time when the Eastern Roman Empire became the “Byzantine Empire, the city “Constantiople” was also referred to as “The City” or “He Polis” in Greek (which the word metropolis came from). After the Fall of the Christian rule, the magic greatly diminished under Ottoman rule even though the city’s name was a transliteration of Constantinople (Kostantiniyye). Only after the Fall of the Ottoman Empire did the city’s official name became “Istanbul”
The historical importance of the city [Istanbul, He Polis, Constantinople, Byzantium, and all the other possible names…] was the silk road from the expedition of Marco Polo. After the Fall of Istanbul, spices in Europe began to skyrocket as the historic silk road was no longer there, which triggered an exploration route to find spices in Asia (albeit a failed exploration). Spices were important in Europe to cure the meat and keep the rotten flavor of the meat out.

RAWs out.
Y’welcome.
@yakitatefreak:
😮
You know, that adds up more than a little. The city was one of the keystones in human history; it was a fulcrum for the development of Eastern, Middle Eastern, and Western cultures before being forgotten by time. Much of the knowledge preserved from antiquity, discovered there (the most famous being Greek fire), or assimilated from the Arabs and the Persians (astronomy, chemistry, mathematics, medicine) must have seemed magical to other cultures, given the old axiom that any sufficiently-advanced technology is indistinguishable from “magic”.
I wouldn’t be too surprised if Negi’s father were chasing down the origins of Mundus Magicus when he disappeared in Istanbul.
I think the naked apron fantasy is kono-chans. her fathers a perv, so like father like daughter.
setsuna is the one going back to when she was a carefree child
