Ten‑year‑old Negi Springfield is a wizard‑in‑training who only needs one more test to become a Master Wizard. His final assignment is oddly specific: become an English teacher at an all‑female boarding school. When he arrives, he embarrasses one of his students, Asuna Kagurazaka, and takes the place of the teacher she adores, earning her animosity. Asuna discovers that Negi is a wizard and threatens to expose him unless he assists her. Circumstances soon force the two to cooperate on a series of challenges, from battling evil wizards to helping the class pass their final exam, all delivered with plenty of humor, magic, and romance.
