Tweaked wording.


** [[Manga/NegimaMagisterNegiMagi The original series]] was recorded in Creator/{{Funimation}}'s own dubbing studio. On the other hand, its sequel, UQ Holder, was recorded at Seraphim Digital Studios and licensed by Creator/SentaiFilmworks. In a twist of irony, Sentai would eventually snap up the rights to the original ''Negima!'' series from Funimation in 2018.

* TheOtherDarrin: Averted for all returning ''Negima'' characters. They all retain their original Japanese voices, with the sole exception of Chisame (Daria Midou replacing Yumi Shimura). Played straight with the dub with the exceptions of Creator/GregAyres (Negi), Creator/LuciChristian (Asuna), and Creator/MonicaRial (Konoka and Kazumi, though both of them were only cameos), but this is mainly because many of them have moved to Los Angeles (mostly Creator/ChrisPatton, Creator/CheramiLeigh, and Creator/LauraBailey), which makes it harder for Creator/SentaiFilmworks to have their old voice actors reprise their roles.

* TrollingCreator: Ken Akamatsu manages to continue his habit of trolling his own publishers, with UQ Holder being a '''stealth''' sequel to Negima for over a hundred chapters, with the original cast being seemingly KilledOffForReal... only for that very first page to be a FakeOutOpening of epic proportions, as later chapters brought back a sizeable proportion of the fan favourites from the original series, culminating in Chapter 129, where it gains a new title... Mahou Sensei Negima 2: UQ Holder. The series isn't over yet.

*WhatCouldHaveBeen: There were two prototypes written for the series. They were eventually released in manuscript form in BonusMaterial. Both share elements of: A destroyed space elevator, and each Touta prototype being named Kikuchiyo.
** The first is about the young orphan, Kikuchiyo being under the wing of an eyepatch clad Eva. Kikuchiyo is originally shown to be hostile towards Eva, due to seeing her kill a nun he was apparently close to. At the end, Evangeline dies, complete with a GraveMarkingScene.
** The second is '7 Samurais', the titular group led by Eva that seems to named after based on Seven Samurai, whose hequarters is based in the slums area with the label Samurai 7. Jinbei, Gengoro, and an older looking Ikkuu appear as members. Also present is a girl who strongly resembles Mizore.
