Great!

An amazing book with great fighting and alot of important backstory. Definetely one of the best!

Nice developing

This is the last manga I bought from Negima! its a nice story, developing showing the growth of the main character and friends, but something that did get me down is the fact that Ken Akamatsu has started using the same story telling technique that Dragonball and Naruto and One Piece developed, 1 day takes 2 mangas to relate, I know this time traveling time can be very long going, but its kinda boring at the end, of course you end up learning a lot about a lot of things, but it tends to get you down, i will think in the future of keep buying this. But if you really liked the story so far, dont stop reading, it gets better!

the father revealed at last

The battle concludes at last with negi vs. nagi and no Ku:nel is not his father which I think was really clear from the beginning. Enjoy because this ends the tournament. The real question is, "will negi beat his father 'the so-called-thousand master that according to Eva knew only 3 spells?" Read and find out.

Mixed-up, dragged-out finale.

Volume 13 on Negima features the semi-finals and finals of the Budokai Martial Arts Tournament. Lots of fighting this time around; not so much comedy. The big storyline here is about the identity of the mysterious Ku:nel Sanders. Is he Negi's long-lost father? You'll have to read the book to find out; I won't spoil it. This is another pretty solid chapter in the series.

Who is the Ku:nel?

Ken Akamatsu's Mahorafest storyline has been building to a climax for four volumes now, and the thirteenth volume of "Negima" doesn't quite get there. But it still reveals new mysteries, and gives us three kinetic battles as the Budokai competition ends. New mages are revealed as Asuna and the newly clothed Takane go on a mission to rescue Takahata, with the help of some magic nuns. But the girls find themselves in combat with a bunch of killer robots controlled by Chao Lingshen, and elsewhere the skeptical Chisame learns that more info on Negi (including about his dad) is leaking onto the web. Meanwhile, the final rounds of the Budokai are underway as Kaede battles the mysterious Ku:nel, Negi battles Setsuna -- and the winners will get to the final round. But the boy wizard is distracted by the Ku:nel -- is this his long-lost father, the Thousand Master? As the two do battle, Negi discovers the Ku:nel's true identity, and a message meant just for him. Unsurprisingly the thirteenth volume ends with another cliffhanger, just as we're about to learn of Chao's secret plot involving the mages. But there's plenty of new revelations in this volume anyway, particularly the real identity of the Ku:nel, how he's so powerful -- even for a mage -- and how he knows so much about Negi and Asuna's pasts. The thirteenth volume suffers from a bit of middle-book syndrome, since not much is actually finished here except for the Budokai. After all, Asuna and the others are apparently still hunting for Takahata. But Akamatsu keeps things interesting with robot henchmen and kinetic magical battles full of gravity orbs and shadow doubles. There's even some comic relief like Takane freaking out at the prospect of losing her clothes for the third time. And though virtually everyone is doing something, the spotlight is on Negi in this volume, as he tries to figure out if the Ku:nel is his dad. The final battle of the Budokai has a brief period involving Negi and the Thousand Master, which is both poignant and wickedly funny. The thirteenth volume of "Negima" doesn't take the plot very far, but reveals some important secrets that promise to make number fourteen VERY interesting.
