Ken Akamatsu
Negima!? neo is a manga retelling of the series made by Takuya Fujima under the guidance of original creator Ken Akamatsu and the supervision of Studio SHAFT. This is Fujima's first mainstream Negima work as he had previously worked on several Negima dōjin. The series started running on November 2006 in the monthly boys' manga magazine "Comic BomBom". It had a brief hiatus a year later with the impending closure of "Comic BomBom"'s publication, only to return on January 2008 in sister publication "Magazine Special", this time with slightly more fanservice than it had during its run in Comic BonBon.
