Poor Tota. I kinda felt bad him but I think Yukihime's reactions and response were pretty obvious with the rejection especially to the marriage proposal.

Any Shounen MC who dare to confess to his love without any hint of hesitation like that is instant WIN for me. At least they are hundred times better than other MC.

Now Touta is not only one of my favorites MC, but he just became the most favorite MC for me !

Can't tell if this is the accurate translation but that cracked me up, never seen the protagonist of a shounen manga ever say that. Anyway this ship will never sail, yukihime likely views him as a son in terms of things, the only reason why she probably developed feeling now because he messed around with her timeline.

This ship will sail 100%. I think the reason Eva took a liking to Nagi because Nagi behave exactly like Touta (Negi was serious-type, but Nagi was YOLO type just like Touta). So ironically, her very first love is Touta, not Nagi.

Sadly... It seems to me that Touta/Yukihime just raise a death flag... The ship will sail strong for sure, but something will definitely happen to Yukihime in the future :(.

Amazing! Bravo just bravo ^^

Touta has rised in my ranks so much in these dozen few chaps so much. Dat confession! Dat proposal! And Eva actually remembers :O

Karin's reaction was so lol

Can't wait to see their reactions to how strong he's become.

It's amazing how Ken just made most Eva shippers with Negi, Nagi...whoever the f*** else jump ships to Touta even though it seemed kinda ridiculous at first. Props for the writing

He meant it as fighting, not having sex but the joke was meant for other to misinterpret it as such.

Also I beg to differ, she might have seen him as a son if the first time she met him was when she started to live with him but she was already in love with him prior to that.

Touta didn't change the past, the real past already took in consideration the actions he did in Dana's space before we saw him do them. Basically Eva really met Touta hundreds of years ago, that is true now and it also was true before Touta even met Dana.

I want that ship to sail wether it looks impossible or not. Reminds me of medaka box and we all know how that ends. I don't want Ken to freaking do a Love Hina/Negima obvious harem "nothing romantic is a accomplished in the end" thing. I for one hated how Negima ended, if ken-san knows better than to not repeat the same thing again with this manga, it will be awesome to see Evangeline taking that marriage proposal seriously later on and then seeing him surprised and go with it. Karin would be angry all the time at them. But the way she has an organization now definetly feels more like Medaka box for me but we will see.

This ship does not sink, yet it does not sail. Is it truly a ship at all? Perhaps it is an illusion...a ghost ship if you will.

I'd have to concur with this. There's many reasons as to why Eva "fell" for both Nagi and Negi that could work out well. I'm willing to bet that this is the same timeline and reality from Negima, unless Ken says otherwise.

Of course, it's probably more than likely when Eva was first introduced in Negima Ken didn't think of Eva's full-fledged out history involving both Eva and Touta.

But then again, as with most stories that go on for many years, stories changed along the way, in order to both suit the author's goals and the reader's expectations.

Either way, this should prove fun. Touta sure has come a long way from being a 1-demnisnal boring character without a goal ahead of him to what he is today.

Now, I wouldn't say worse but it does seem kind of fanfict-like. I'm not saying I dislike it, but I don't like it at the same time.

Maybe because I'm still pushing ships from Negima. I don't know but I just don't like the whole Touta and Yukihime thing. I should see how it develops but it's odd to me. She went from motherly figure to love interest and it's just very odd......

Again, maybe it's just me still stuck in Negima but this ship doesn't seem right to me. I'm not agasint it but I don't like it nor love it like everyone else.

I agree with both of you on the matter that this feel very fanfictiony. Their relationship was more of foster parent and child to me, no matter how I look at it. It just doesn't sit right for me, and to be honest, it destroys Eva's character from MSN. As much as I love to ship Negi and Eva back in MSN, she would always keep her composure, she had never shown that kind of interest for Negi. I doubt Ken Akamatsu planned this far ahead when he wrote MSN, in term of having Touta as a character that Eva has met long ago, so to suddenly make Eva interested in 'romance' other than Nagi is just unfathomable.

Seriously, just thinking about it disgust me. If this ship sails, I would gladly delete both MSN and UQH entry from my list, and throw away any merchandise I own of MSN.

Why can't we just have a normal family love between the two of them? Is it really that impossible, especially of an age gap where the older one is at the age where she could become his mom? Fuck. I am not sure if I even want to continue reading this manga now.

Because Akamatsu went out of his way to go back on his characterization on Eva just to make this pairing works, in other word, he's forcing it into this narrative where Eva is even weaker in her personality than she was in Mahou Sensei Negima, and here comes Touta, a 13 yo(?) kid, who could "heal her heart". It not only destroys Eva's character for me, it makes Touta seem like a really generic shounen main protagonist, who says things that don't really go along with his "true" character, and not his generic "shounen mc" persona.

That's not only it. I just can't see it, because Yukihime basically raised the kid, he was like her own child, and if Yukihime falls in love with Touta, I am so done with this. I don't see what Touta has done to her, that Negi has not tried to, or Nagi.

Basically her time with 3A, while wonderful for her, was just a passing moment in the several hundred years she lived. She treasured those moments, but as time passed she was eventually left alone again. Even so she hasn't COMPLETELY gone back to the way she used to be. She doesn't look at herself as a monster anymore due to the life she took. But at the same even those meaningful connection were rendered, as Kansas would say, Dust In The Wind.

I thought you were gonna explain why you like the whole Touta x Eva shipping and why they make sense story wise, but I guess it's only about Eva. To be honest, I agree with what you said, but it is less about her, and more about how Akamatsu is dealing with her, if it makes sense.

Why Touta, when he is just a youngster who has not experienced the real world and can only talk out of his ass? Because he is the protagonist? How does Touta's train of thought works? Like a typical main character you would see in another series?

I'll grant you it being romantic seems weird to me to., at this point at least. That isn't to say there isn't room for this to change as his characterization grows.
