Yeah, qft on that. Found myself chuckling at some of the antics. Hopefully they'll continue on this kind of pace. More narration from the narrator is needed.

Anyway, the cast is now assembled. Next episode should be fun.

Wow that was full of great laughs, D&D reference was funny and Hinagaku part was so hilarious. And the fact that you can actually see a slight plot going round makes it really enjoyable.

Nun part was good.
Nishizawa has good imagination. best part for me:

Claus face of panic.
"Sister do not touch me there" good phone gag about Nagi not understanding the situation.
Don't think Wataru will help in this.
Scene with Katsura and Hinagiku was LOL. Big debt! At least now is paid except 30 000 yen.

wow, how would you feel if you met a nun who would just destroy some guy like that! i wonder who she really is?
anyways now they're on a quest for a medallion, which in some way means hayate is fit to be a butler...
and hinagiku was hilarious in this episode! especially when dealing with her sister

Really good episode with some of my favourite scenes from the manga.
And here I was waiting for this arc in the first season, but just glad it came after all.

Apparently everyone is suddenly obsessed with Hinagiku for reasons unknown to me. I don't understand the appeal of such an average character.

Anyway, the episode was ok. I liked the Alexander Anderson "AMEN" reference.

Good episode. The sister's "AMEN" was great though it was better on paper. Loved the part where Hina teased Hayate. Only complaint was that the reduced Ayumu's part in this arc to that little segment.

Lol'd pretty hard at the little part when Hayate was tied up in chains.The conversation with Hina was pretty funny too.

Hayate didn't really seem to get the A-Team together for his party members though. Hopefully next weeks will be more interesting.

Not that I'm obsessed but I do find her rather interesting and I've definitely grown more fond of her, especially from reading the manga.

That aside, the episode was alright. Can't wait for more Nishizawa screen time.

I think Hina draws a lot of attention because, besides the obvious moe, by being the only "real" character in a cast of comic caricatures she (and by extension her mother) grounds the anime - we understand her and her motivations and because of her moe we really, really, really want her to be happy and to not fail, be disappointed or cry. Another reason might be that as long as she is around to offer Hayate a more age appropriate romantic interest (Ayumu isn't really a factor) we don't have to consider Hayate and the pre-pubescent looking Nagi in other than a platonic, comic pairing no matter what Nagi thinks.

I thought it was an average HnG ep which makes it above average vis a vis most other anime.

It was good at the beginning... until they chose to skip a whole part of Hayate's pre-dungeon butler training and went straight to the dungeon. Don't get me wrong, the new season is still good but I am surprised with this ridiculous pacing, is it only going to be 13 episodes? The manga chapters are short as they are but the 2nd season is just dashing past them at lightspeed.

I see no reason to worry about the pace at all, in fact I'm rather happy. This episode handled manga chapters 56-60, effectively skipping over 59, because that was handled already in a season 1 episode. Which means an average of 4 chapters per episode.

We're at 60 now, and the manga is currently at 220. Which means roughly 40 episodes even at this high pace before we get in the _area_ of the current manga (which wil be at chapter 260 by then).

In other words: Wonderful!

The last bit of the episode from Yukiji through the end was definitely the best part. Though I did laugh pretty hard at Hayate being dominated. Much better than the first episode, I enjoyed this a lot.

I see what you mean now, I guess I was overreacting.
Anyway, the next episode will be a blast, especially with a party like that assembled for the quest.

So far, this 2nd season is being a letdown. But I was never a big Hayate fan, so I guess watching this weekly has it's downs.

Take that Hayate, that's what you get for being so cruel to Hina in the first episode ;P
