Ever wanted to play that weird little Negima! GBA game that never made it outside Japan? This is the one where you control Negi and his students in a surprisingly decent turn-based RPG—complete with magic spells, combo attacks, and way too many anime cutscenes for a Game Boy Advance title.

At first, it feels like a standard JRPG, but the battle system has this weird charm where pairing certain students with Negi unlocks special moves. Took me a while to figure out which combos actually worked—Asuna’s melee attacks are solid, but pairing her with Negi’s wind magic? Surprisingly busted.

It’s definitely a relic of early 2000s anime games—expect pixelated sprites, random encounters, and dialogue that makes zero sense if you don’t know the series. But if you’re into obscure licensed RPGs, it’s a fun little time capsule. Just don’t expect a masterpiece.
