I would have been satisfied if he'd just done two things.
Established what had happened to Arika instead of ignoring her after Negi gets put into that dream world.
Second, let us know who the love interest was!
Explaining what was up with the Master of the Grave would have been nice as well. An interesting character who gets revealed to be a relative, if not ancestor of Asuna and possibly Negi, and we know nothing about them.
A definite disappointment.
Heck, it would have been easy for Nagi to have commented about his wife in the final issue. Just an extra page or two would have given him the chance. Heck, having her show up with Nagi at the end would have helped.
They never explained why Arika couldn't raise him either.
Just a severe disappointment.

As for me, I don't mind that not everything is explained or wrapped up in a tidy neat little bow.
Quite frankly, I wasn't expecting it too.
What I did hope for was some closure with the Nagi/Arika storyline. The Negi relationships... well, we all knew that wasn't going to be elaborated on.
It is quite a shame that the whole Nagi thing didn't finish though. That seemed like it would be a good story.
Just my 2 cents.

Link please.
I more or less agree with this. The who Negi ends up with B-Plot was always, always unimportant. Which is why it was so strange to see it get so much focus in the last few chapters.
What gets me is the way the Nagi story got resolved, when its the Main Story Arc. Saving Mars? That's the Magical World story arc. What happened to Nagi? That's the Negima story arc.

You know, thinking of Chisame's situation, Perhaps she become something of the Oracle to Negi's batman.
She may work from home, but she's effectively telecommuting, as well as using the sprites and such to gather information and dispense the necessary advice.
The only reason I can think why she's not doing all this in person is with Asuna there, she doesn't need to be by his side to keep him from doing stupid crap. In the alternate timeline, I get the impression that's one of the roles she settled into.
So basically, Asuna's return screwed her form that perspective.

I know the ending was kinda disappointing, but it could have been a lot worse. He at least gave summaries on what happened to each of the girl's, while hinting at various stories that happened off screen.
While it doesn't say who Negi ended up with, or how Nagi became free, those weren't really important. The story was never about who Negi would end up with or freeing Nagi.
The story was always just about a boy wizard named Negi who is a teacher at an all girl's middle school in Japan and the adventures he got into with his time there.
