So is this an actual sequel, or is this negima all over again, where the ova just kind adapted random sections without ever actually tying to any of the first seasons. If its the later Id rather just have a reboot, because the first anime is so divergent unless its explained well there is no way to connect them, I mean as far as I know the mother of the kids has been hardly touched upon, but in the first anime you somehow have their grandfather appearing out of nowhere being a massive antagonist and having a case of sad satan.

Plus it feels outwhack trying to watch it, because since the first season doesn't fit with it you have to start in the middle of a work.

I mean imagine if they made star wars viii and all of sudden harrison ford is alive again because his death wasn't in the original script that was just done as a filler, and lets kind of pretend half of vii didn't happen.


It's a sequel that ignores the events of the second half of the original anime. They already did it with Kuroshitsuji two years ago and it worked fairly well for them, no reason not to do it again instead of rebooting the whole thing

Yes! It's finally back! Can't wait.

Hopefully it gets on Toonami again too.

Here's how the first two minutes could play out if they wanted to tie the second season in with the ending of the first season:

Rin: *wakes up, turns to Yukio* Hey Yukio, I just had the weirdest dream where our grandfather was the pope. And Evil. And you were the Paladin, and a demon. And Satan was sympathetic?

Yukio: That was a stupid dream, Rin.


Yeah, was thinking about something like this too, that'd be a great way to do it LOL.
