* ''MahouSenseiNegima'' references the Chupacabra once or twice. In the original, it was just theorized that it was a Chupacabra behind the vampire attacks. (In truth, it was [[spoiler:Evangeline.]]) Then, in the second animated series ''Negima!?'', it became more of a RunningGag, ranging from a Chupacabra-based club being used as a cover for those who discovered Negi's secret and Asuna printing far too many Chupa-Tees to sell, to [[spoiler:Negi being turned into a chupacabra as punishment for revealing magic to normal humans]]. Even in the Spring OVA, a small portion is spent on a Chupacabra hunt, and at the very end, a Chupacabra is seen watching the plane fly away.
