Child mage-teacher Negi Springfield must choose one student from his class at Mahora Academy to become his permanent magical partner before graduation, a decision that will cost every other student their memories of magic. Evangeline A.K. McDowell, Asuna Kagurazaka, Setsuna Sakurazaki, and the rest of Negi's students each have their own stake in his choice as the deadline closes in. This film condenses roughly two dozen manga chapters into a stand-alone alternate ending to the Negima! Magister Negi Magi story, distinct from the earlier TV series.
