Trivia[]
- The song playing during the opening and closing credits is "Highway to Hell" by AC/DC.
- Like its motion picture and television companions, this series is shot entirely in 3D.
- Since season 3 of Negima!, it's been customary for Makie and Anya to be played by young boys. This custom is carried over to this web series.
- As with the main continuity (the movie and TV series), Betamax is still a favorite home video format for Mahora students, with some, including Asuna, exclusively using that format.
- Some episodes are preceded by a combination of the few-seconds version of the PBS "Come See the Light" promo and the abridged 1990-A Public TV For East Tennessee ident.
- When the library is shown, there's always a shot of the extensive Betamax, VHS, and Video 2000 library in NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats.
