#4. Ayase Yue (綾瀬 夕映)
Age: 14
Birthday: November 16th, 1988
Blood Type: AB
Likes: Reading
Dislikes: Studying
Note: The cool slacker. Despite being talented, she hates studying and keeps being amongst those who have the lowest grades in the class. She is a member and leader of the "Baka Rangers", the nickname for the five lowest scorers in Negi's class (she is the "Black Ranger"), and is a member of the Library Exploration Group, often hanging around with Haruna and Nodoka. She is a strong supporter of Nodoka, and encourages her to develop a relationship with Negi. She is also one of the few girls in the class to know of Negi's secret, which she found out all by herself by figuring out the clues and strange incidents since Negi's arrival. In fact, she was the one who called Kaede, Ku Fei and Mana for help when the Kansai Magic Association headquarters was attacked by the people who kidnapped Konoka at Kyoto. She is sometimes seen drinking tomato milk.
RUMOR: Some passages in the Del Rey translation imply that she may also be Konoka's cousin.
