OVA
Description
Makie Sasaki attends Mahora Academy as student number 16 in Class 2/3-A. Her athletic talent shines in rhythmic gymnastics, especially ribbon manipulation, showcasing exceptional reflexes and reaction time. This physical prowess starkly contrasts her academic standing, where she holds the second-lowest test scores in her class. Her airheaded nature earns her the nickname "Baka Pink" as a member of the "Baka Rangers."

Energetic and childish, Makie possesses a strong fondness for cute things. This draws her to Negi Springfield, whom she initially finds adorable and treats with sisterly affection; her feelings develop into romantic interest by Chapter 288. This shift sparks a rivalry with classmate Ayaka Yukihiro over Negi's attention. Despite this tension, Makie collaborates with Ayaka on projects like the Mahora Festival's haunted house and costume contest.

Makie's involvement with magic begins early when Evangeline A.K. McDowell uses her as a puppet during the Library Island incident; her gymnastics skills prove vital for the group's survival. While she retains residual effects from this manipulation, her memories remain fragmented. Later, she participates in the "Kiss Negi" game on the Kyoto trip, teaming first with Yuuna Akashi and then with Ayaka; both attempts result in failed pactio contracts from Negi's paper clones.

Her magical abilities emerge gradually: she performs a beginner's fire spell in Chapter 212 and later forms a formal pactio with Negi in Chapter 289. This pactio grants her the artifact "Armatura Quinquiplex," a set of five gymnastic-themed weapons: Liberum Lemniscus (extendable ribbon), Bombus Globus (explosive ball), Frango Stipes (juggling clubs that multiply or enlarge), Cleaving Ring, and Capturing Rope. She wields these during the "Mages vs. Mars" battle after being pulled into a digital network with Ayaka and Chisame Hasegawa; transformed into a magical girl, she provides combat support against robotic threats.

Following the Mahora Festival, Makie secretly follows Negi's group to England and then through a magical gateway to the Magic World. After the gateway's destruction scatters the group, she and Yuuna find work as delivery girls for a tavern in Ostia. They are not enslaved and are treated well by locals. During this time, they witness Negi (disguised as Nagi Springfield) competing in a fighting tournament.

Makie resides with other "Sports Girls" like Yuuna, Ako, and Akira. She has a younger brother named Kagehisa Sasaki and dislikes slimy foods such as natto.
