Provided are a method for producing a negatively-chargeable toner that has a narrow particle diameter distribution even when produced by a polymerization method, and a negatively-chargeable toner that is excellent in balance between low-temperature fixability and heat-resistant shelf stability, has fine thin-line reproducibility, and generates little fog, even in high-speed printing. The negatively-chargeable toner includes colored resin particles which contain at least a binder resin, a colorant, a charge control agent and a softening agent, wherein the charge control agent is a copolymer which is obtained by copolymerizing a vinyl aromatic hydrocarbon, a (meth)acrylate and a sulfonic acid group-containing (meth)acrylamide and in which a copolymerization ratio of the sulfonic acid group-containing (meth)acrylamide is 0.8 to 4.0% by mass, and wherein the softening agent is at least one of a monoester compound and a polyglycerol ester compound.
