Ability Changes: Pretty much any technological or magical ability is kosher here, though magic is never cast in English or Japanese, usually using latin or ancient greek. Super-strength and similar physical talents may be of magical or technological origin here, though. The series tends to obey shonen logic more than ordinary physics, so epicness does enhance power. Ability Limitations: No significant limitations are in place, other than those necessary to preserve secrecy (even at the magic-infested Mahora Academy, there is a masquerade to maintain, you know). Form Restrictions: On Earth, it's humans and robots only. In the Magic World, various nonhuman species can exist, including cat-people (of just-ears/tail and full-anthro sort), elves, demon-like humans, and the like. Oh, and talking Ermine Fairies (everyone mistakes them for ferrets or weasels though). Social Restrictions: Magic remains a secret. Failure to preserve the secret requires memory erasure spells. Serious failure gets you turned into an Ermine Fairy for a varying length of time. Notes: Most incidents in this world are likely to occur at or around Mahora Academy, a large-campus school (apparently all-women's) going from kindergarten to college and beyond... Where there's a lot of magical and high-tech things going on, and where the timeline's already a little wonky thanks to the efforts of one Chao Ling Shen. Additional Information: http://negima.wikia.com/ Also note that it is implied that both Love Hina and A.I. Love You, also by Ken Akamatsu, are part of the canon.
