<p>Is Ken Akamatsu currently working starting a new series or planning to release a new one this year? </p>

<p>I understand that <em>Negima</em> ended some time ago. A mangaka's gotta eat, after all.</p>

This question appears to be off-topic because it is about time-limited "news" events. The accepted answer is already out of date since we know the new manga is UQ Holder. When UQ Holder concludes, the whole question will become irrelevant because it won't be what Akamatsu is "currently" working on anymore, and the possible edit "What was Ken Akamatsu working on in late 2013?" is easily answered with Google.
