Yukihime brings Tota and Kuromaru to UQ Holder HQ where they meet a whole team of immortals like them. As new recruits, they are shown a cold shoulder. To earn respect and become fullfledged members of UQ Holder, they must pass an initiation test. Without any warning, Tota and Kuromaru are dropped into a murky underground maze. Their mission: to escape from this dark monsterinfested labyrinth within eight years. Tota says he'll get out in a week. Can Tota beat the odds? From the Trade Paperback edition.

Tota and Kuromaru take a nasty beat down and in a moment of desperation, Tota finds a new power that may be great or terrible or both! From the creator of Love Hina and Negima!
Tota meets Kirië Sakurame, a mysterious member of UQ Holder. Kirië looks like a little girl, but is apparently the wealthy patron of UQ Holder. Tota accompanies her on a trip to the tower to meet Karin (returning from the Moon), but the trip appears to have another purpose. The powerful wizard Fate Averruncus, former ally of Tota's grandfather Negi, wants to take possession of Tota for reasons unknown. Despite having Karin, Ikku, Kirië and Kuromaru with him, they stand little chance of stopping Fate, who possesses unfathomable power. Why does Fate want Tota? And can Kirië's secret plan succeed in stopping him?

At last, for the first time in 20 years, Fate and Evangeline meet again. The moment their eyes lock in confrontation, the two hurl themselves into battle!

The murder has been solved and Santa becomes the newest addition to UQ Holder. Soon after, Tota encounters a woman who claims to be a friend of his grandfather’s. She invites Tota to enter the legendary Mahora Martial Arts Tournament, hoping he can help solve a peculiar mystery: Someone else has entered the tournament…and his name is Negi Springfield.
After running away from UQ Holder only to be pulled into the Mahora Martial Arts Tournament, Tota steels his resolve to battle his way through the competition and reach the top of the tower. Although he’s determined to get answers about his grandfather, Negi Springfield, from the mysterious girl who wounded him, Tota realizes he may need an edge to come out on top. As the Tournament heats up, the witch Dana arrives with valuable information for UQ Holder. Just who is this woman, and why does she know so much about Yukihime?
After Kitty’s shocking revelation, Tota goes to met with her again, but all he finds is a note telling him to come back in four days, or to her, 287 years. In the meantime, Dana gives Tota some big news: she’s prepared a finishing move for him! But there’s a catch: the book on how to perform the move is hidden in a box in the monster-infested castle ruins below…a challenge even before Dana sends him to a distant starting point. Can Tota complete his mission and make it back in time to see Kitty once again?
After Tota’s shocking proposal to Kitty, the rest of the UQ Holder gang realizes they may never get a chance to act on their own feelings. New rivals Shinobu and Mizore appear on the scene, and join the competition for Tota’s affection. Meanwhile, Kuromaru and Kirië are having trouble controlling their own emotions. Tota’s only concern is saving the world and protecting Kitty—but what plans do the other members of the group have for him?
After being given permission from Yukihime to leave Senkyokan, Tota heads off to participate in the Mahora Martial Arts Tournament. But before the tournament even begins, Tota receives word that his grandfather has been seen, and vows to rescue him. However, Tota soon realizes that the situation is even graver than he anticipated, and when Fate offers him a proposition, he is left with a choice. Should he side with Fate to save his grandfather, or with Yukihime, who wants to kill him? Or, is there a third option…?
With Tokyo making way for the upcoming Mahora Martial Arts Tournament and Neo Olympics, Tota and company couldn’t be more fired up. But before the games can begin, Mizore, Shinobu, and Kirië face off in the God Bull Speeder Bike Race—with Tota’s love as the prize! And when Kirië and Tota accidentally freeze time at the finish line, they find themselves face-to-face with Cutlass...and a few more not-so-friendly faces, including Tota’s grandfather! Does Tota have what it takes to save Negi, and to go up against the “greatest mage” the Earth has ever known?
After being thrust into the past, and right into the middle of the days of his grandfather’s youth, Tota’s comes face to face with the Mage of the Beginning! However, things are not all they appear to be–Tota’s isn’t just in Negi’s memories, but a nightmare where Ialda reigns supreme. With the help of Yukihime, as well as Negi’s first partner Asuna Kagurazaka and the rest of UQ Holder, Tota’s must save his grandfather and stop Ialda once and for all, or be pulled into darkness, along with the rest of the world.
After their showdown, Negi asks Tota to follow in his footsteps. The request brings Tota and Kirië to Kyoto in search of an old workshop owned by Nagi Springfield, Negi’s father and Tota’s great-grandfather. But uncovering the workshop isn’t such an easy task, and with Kirië struggling over her conflicted feelings for Tota, the trip might be more than the two of them can handle.
After travelling all the way to Kyoto, Tota and Kirië finally track down Nagi’s old workshop, where they meet Albert Chamomile, Negi Springfield’s old partner. There, Albert shows Tota memories from Negi’s past, including an alternate timeline of how Negi’s life would have been if Tota didn’t exist. Tota watches from the sidelines as a decisive battle unfolds between Negi and Nagi, and finally sees firsthand the overwhelming power of the two mages that came before him.
Just as Tota and Kirië are about to make their way back from Kyoto, the Senkyokan is attacked by none other than Tota’s younger sister, Cutlass! While Jinbei and Makabe manage to keep her attacks at bay, Cutlass soon reveals that the orbital elevator is the target of an impending nuclear missile attack–which claims the lives of over ten thousand civilians. Tota, Kirië, and the rest of UQ HOLDER travel back in time in order to stop the attack from happening, but has their time already run out…?
Tota and the rest of UQ HOLDER successfully travel back in time and stop the nuclear missile from hitting the orbital elevator…but just as they do, they discover that another attack is headed their way! And with Kirië's save point destroyed, it means that this time, there are no do-overs. With only one chance to save humanity from destruction, can Tota figure out a way to save everyone, or will it take a great sacrifice to avert an even greater disaster?
NEWFOUND RESOLVE After viewing Chachazero’s memories, Tota learns more about Negi Springfield and Evangeline’s mysterious pasts, as well as their efforts to defeat the seemingly indestructible Ialda Baoth. Determined to save the world now more than ever, Tota resumes his training with Kuromaru–and the two soon discover that they must enter a special contract in order to obtain the power they seek. But with Kuromaru’s conflicting feelings for Tota only growing stronger, he soon finds himself at an impasse that could jeopardize their friendship forever…
WHO NEEDS WHO The day of Karin’s reckoning has come, as she must confront her own demons and finish her centuries- long battle with Evangeline. But who is needed to finally settle these old scores? What’s more, this isn’t the only dark past that will come back to haunt the members of UQ HOLDER, as the lines between good and evil become more and more blurred. Amid the cosmic clash of forces, the members of UQ HOLDER become further entangled with new contracts, new pactios, and all that comes with them. It’s both hard and easy to forget when you live so long…
A flurry of pactios and bombshell revelations seem to have things looking up for UQ HOLDER. The team is united in trust and strength, and appears to be closer than ever behind Tota’s fearless leadership as they stare down one of their most intense battles yet. But nothing is ever as simple as it seems, and as they look out towards the next battle, their enemy may in fact be closer than they think…
While Nikits occupies Tota, the Senkyokan comes under attack. Jinbei and Juzo put their relationship to the test as they face off in a fight to the death. Can Jinbei defeat Juzo’s 800 years of sword mastery to awaken his friend from Ba’al’s control? Clashing with the boy he once saved, Jinbei reveals the true nature of his Switcheroo. And, at a climactic moment, Tota arrives just as Dana–his old master–appears out of nowhere. She may no longer be the teacher he once knew… The UQ members must unite to face their greatest battle yet!
The battle with Ba’al comes to an epic conclusion as UQ Holder’s most powerful members, The Numbers, all finally come together! The time has come to take the fight to Ialda, but can the UQ Holder Numbers succeed where two generations of legendary Springfields failed? The Numbers make a bold move towards taking down Ialda and Yukihime faces an emotional reckoning with T?¯ta!
T?¯ta and Kur?¯maru are on a date! Is their partner-ship about to blossom into a romantic bond? Sadly, as the two confront the nature of their relationship, they are rudely interrupted by the Fushi-Gari, immortal hunters from the Shinmei. In order to complete their preparations to destroy Ialda, the Fushi-Gari must perform a ritual that requires Kur?¯maru, and Kur?¯maru’s own brother is among those leading the hunt! Kur?¯maru’s immortality is at stake as T?¯ta faces off against an entire clan devoted to destroying immortals.
TO THE TOP AND BEYOND... After Tota defeats the Fushi-Gari targeting Kuromaru, the Shinmei reveal a big secret. They have located Ialda and also calculated when she will activate her ultimate spell, Cosmo Entelekheia. With this information in hand, the time has come for UQ Holder to finally confront Ialda and end her for good. Once the final preparations have been made, UQ Holder will depart from the top of the tower to Pluto. Tota will finally achieve his dream of reaching the top of the tower as a fleet of spaceships await to take UQ Holder to battle. However, his dream may become a nightmare...
THE LONG FALL 43 years have passed since Ba’al’s terrorist attack that derailed UQ Holder’s plan to defeat Ialda. Tota has recovered most of his memories, but still can not fill in the 43 year blank that haunts him. Though he desperately wants to find out what happened to his friends, he must first survive being hunted by Ba’al’s powerful minions. Without his powers or immortality, can Tota escape Ba’al’s forces and reunite with his UQ Holder comrades? And are there even any members of UQ Holder left to reunite with?
REUNITED AND IT FEELS... After reuniting with his friends, the large gap in Tota’s memories is filled when he’s told what really happened after Ba’al’s forces attacked the orbital ring. And with a blessed respite from being hunted by Ba’al’s elite demon hit squad, Tota is able to take some time to reconnect with his beloved friends and comrades. Some allies that were thought lost are found and the wounds created by Tota being absent for over 40 years are healed with immortal love.
GAME OVER...CONTINUE? After detecting unusual activity on Pluto, the UQ Holder numbers rush to the scene, only to fall straight into a trap. An immortality-negating attack wipes out the UQ team and permanent death seems inevitable. But not all hope is lost. Gengoro’s strange video game-like immortal powers may provide UQ a second chance as well as a guide on how to beat Ialda’s minions on hard mode.
AN EPIC ENDING... The time has come for the final showdown. Enemies, allies, and everyone in between collide in the big battle with the last boss. Every move is made, every plan is executed, all possibilities are exhausted, and in the end, Tota's idealistic hope to save everyone is all but crushed. In this final volume, Tota makes an impossible choice, giving him a slim chance at the happy ending he so desperately desires! FINAL VOLUME!
