| The sprawling, activity-packed three-day Mahora Academy Festival 
                    is under way. Overwhelmed and exhausted by his schedule, Negi 
                    falls asleep and almost loses an entire day. But thanks to 
                    Chao Lingshen's amazing pocket-size invention, Negi suddenly 
                    has time to spare. So Negi goes on a date with Nodoka, patrols 
                    the dangerous areas surrounding the legendary World Tree, 
                    becomes accidentally possessed by strange magic, inspires 
                    a heart-to-heart with usually secretive students, and prepares 
                    to compete in a martial-arts tournament against opponents 
                    who are more formidable than he ever imagined...
 Volume 
                    10 in the Negima! series features the continuing 
                    adventures of ten-year-old, Negi Springfield. He has just 
                    graduated from a British school for magic only to find himself 
                    assigned to teach English in an all-girl's Japanese high school. 
                    All Negi wants is to become a great wizard - but he's forbidden 
                    to use magic in his new post. I 
                    have to admit to being thrown in at the deep end here. I hadn't 
                    read any of the previous collections in this series when Volume 
                    10 landed in my in-tray. But, to be perfectly honest, 
                    it didn't really seem to matter that I wasn't fully up to 
                    speed with the back story of these characters. It was fairly 
                    easy to pick up what was going on. There's 
                    something for everyone here, cute teenage girls (the odd flash 
                    of panties - a Japanese obsession), time travel, magic fighting 
                    tournaments, and humour by the bucket load. It's 
                    probably advisable to start this collection from the beginning. 
                    I know I'll be adding the previous volumes to my shopping 
                    list.
