History[]
- This section covers only the history revealed in UQ Holder!. For Asuna Kagurazaka's past exploits, please see Asuna Kagurazaka.
As the last remaining royalty of the Magic World, Asuna agreed to be sealed as its cornerstone in order to delay its destruction for 100 years in order for her friends Negi Springfield, Ayaka Yukihiro, and the rest to aid humanity in advancing space development and complete their "Green Mars" project within the time period, though due to an interference, she ended up oversleeping for 30 more years than the expected time.
In the "Prime World", Asuna time traveled back to the day she left after completing her duty to live out her life with her friends. Her return proved to be essential in defeating the Mage of the Beginning due to her "Mars Album" power being the only thing that can stop the immortal mage, eventually allowing the group to save Negi's father Nagi Springfield from the mage's control and vanquish her forever, as well as allowing Negi to finally find the courage to confess to his crush Chisame Hasegawa, with them eventually marrying five years later.
In the world of UQ Holders, the absence of Asuna in Negi's life ended up greatly diverging the events from the prime world. Not only was the Mage of the Beginning never defeated, but Negi ultimately had to use himself to seal away the mage after the death of Chisame, who sacrificed herself to protect him and the capture of Nodoka Miyazaki, Yue Ayase, Jack Rakan, and Albireo Imma within the Mage of the Beginning.
