The last chapter of Negima flat out told us Negi was an immortal monster from then on. We knew he wouldn't age, but we didn't know if he'd keep growing.
himitsu keisatsu seifu chokuzoku kokka hoanbu na no da himitsu keisatsu yami ni magireru supai katsudou torishimariThat'll… but growing is a direct offshoot of aging!
Isn't it the other way around, Magey?
Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.No, it isn't. You can age without growing up, but you can't grow up without aging. Technically, any passage of time you experiment, chronologically speaking, is aging to some degree or another.
So growing up is an offshoot of aging, but not always, especially in fantasy stories, is an obligatory offshoot.

Amanojaku Chiu is now up as a Justice League and Negima crossover.
It is Fanon that affecting a person will also affect their pactio artifact right? At least I don't remember anything from the manga about that.
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!Affecting a person how? If something happens after the pactio, probably not, though Asuna got a weaker version of her artifact before she started tapping into the proverbial well springs, but she's a special case. If its when a pactio is actually being made, you may get a different artifact depending on how you view the relationship with your Magister, ala Setsuna. No word on Asuna's ME induced one though.
But yeah, something affecting the Artifacts is mostly fanon.
LINK !!!!!
Hmmm... Let's just say, hypothetically, that Chisame's sanity slips a little after stuff happens to her. Her artifact looks like a Magical Girl's weapon. Might it turn into a Royal Scepter if she perceives she is Queen of the Internets? Or maybe a couple of her mice might turn into spiders for proper web trolling?
Madman with a box? I'm a madman with a semi, a pretzel bender and a Heart of Gold!Given that the artifacts are actual items merely summoned by the user, their owners psychological state shouldn't affect them physically unless we get into something like eldritch levels of corruption. Now whether or not the mice would hold the same appearance in Chisame's instance is something different, since those are summoned through the artifact. You could probably make them take on a different form I'm thinking.
You could get into the second anime I suppose where possessed Eva made a pactio with Asuna, corrupting her in the process...but that was still a separate pactio that overrode hers and Negi's.

I would like to state that I'm still alive, despite not posting much.
Also, it has now been officially confirmed that, when shopping for clothes other than suits, my choices are lacking in fashion sense.
Rather than smart, I'd prefer to be wise. It would let me be silly more often.So Nobody is alive?
That's the kind of puns I was thinking of when choosing the nickname.
... Maybe the fashion sense is somehow dependent on the pun-sense?
Rather than smart, I'd prefer to be wise. It would let me be silly more often.Nobody is alive describes Negima perfectly now, anyway, since Gagahime is an undead, Mana is only a shallow shell of a zombie of herself, and Fate, well, he's always been the most lifeless guy around.
Watched Big Hero 6 again, realized that the ear-fins for all the characters in their superhero forms reminded me of Chachamaru's ear-fins.
Hiro is the original developer of Chachamaru? Dammit Chao!
Baymax and Chachamaru do both like cats though...
This always happens when I'm reading a megacrossover though. Any new media I take in, I try to slot into that world. Over Master's work is ensuring that I never get out of it.
Just him? I'm not THAT irrelevant...
And what am I, then? I know it's been a while but I haven't canceled it.
It seems like Over Master comes out with a reboot to his megacrossover every few weeks, which may have something to do with their tendency to stick in my mind.
That and Negima's always going to be my favorite, so something that uses Mahora as the hub has an advantage I guess?
Although to be fair, most of you guys seem to draw off of one another and have a similar level of quality to your writing, so associating you as one group isn't meant to be an insult by any means.

Have read UQ, laughed at the irony of the series that's been mach aligned as a poor replacement of Negima having a nominal MC who is... literally a poor replacement of Negi. Poor clones. It's shit like this that gives clones a bad rap. When the scientific breakthrough happens and clones become a normal part of everyday life, right up there with ridiculously human robots and A.I.s, they are going to be as offended by these works as some are about, say, Uncle Tomfoolery.
That said, I wonder if we're going to suddenly learn that Touta is the unwanted clone lovechild of Negi and Kotaro... would certainly explain his attitude towards fighiting.
How do you have an unwanted clone lovechild? Did they have their tryst in the cloning vats and not clean up well enough?
Nuku Nuku had them way before Chachamaru did. Although Nuku Nuku's were retractable.

I mean it in the same was as Pre-Nu 52 Superbot was the unwanted clone lovechild of Lex Luthor and Superman.
They theorized that he may never reach puberty back in Negima, and even then still could have had room to grow to actually have children. Unless he was using pills in both Negima and all his appearances in Holder, (Which is unlikely, since he appeared as mostly adultish in the Lifemakers dreamscape alongside Nagi, unless he felt like adding that little detail), its unlikely that it was the message they were trying to convey back then.
