THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Another very crazy episode! I'm glad they didn't make a new OP and used alternative lyrics for it instead because I really love this one. Had a lot of good laughs, they parody'd NGE again, Initial D and even Knight Rider. xD And even the earth is becoming a tsundere now. xD Screenshot of the month: UMI DA!! |

Haha, great episode, but as I was watching I kept thinking if I saw this already, then I figured it must have been in the manga lol. Tsundere earth lol. New OP, well new lyrics anyway but still great.      |

UMI DA! This was a great episode. But did anyone notice that they used a similar Initial D reference as Lucky Star did? and LOL @ DBZ. Modified by KY791, 01-16-08, 4:41 PM \ |

Darkreaper70 said: Yes, if I'm correct the first half was taken from Volume 2. Both halves were actually pretty hilarious. Haha, great episode, but as I was watching I kept thinking if I saw this already, then I figured it must have been in the manga lol. That said, Sakuya's looks are pretty inconsistent. One moment she looks childish then the other she has huge knockers. At least her actual butlers actually showed up this time, instead of the two "impostors" from Episode 39.  |

It's nice to have Hayate give me a good laugh again; I have renewed faith in the series :D I still am a little irritated at the lack of consistency in animation quality that has become a bad habit with the series overall, but if the rest of the episodes continue to be as high-quality (humor-wise) as this one, I guess I can forgive it. |

That said, I forgot to comment on it, but it's kind of cool how they cleverly made Himegami the opossing butler in the OP (Hayate's final rival no doubt). Or how Nagi finally keeps herself awake at the end of the EP. Little details like that make my day. |

yuichii2 said: I just love the fact that Nagi actually smacked Hayate for making a lame comeback and not just because he was being obtuse once more. I dunno about Sakuya looking cute (she was indeed fun), but I couldn't help to burst out "Kawaii !!!" when I saw Nagi asleep on the beach.XD Hayate is so slow, he deserved that smack nagi and sakuya were so cute in this episode Modified by Leon-Gun, 01-16-08, 8:03 PM |

Awesome episode, Hayate needed a Sakuya ep! I love when she shows her tsundere side. Also, the NERV truck made me do a double-take. I wonder what HURO is, if anything. |

Umi da~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ !! XD Great kickoff for Hayate no Gotoku! Giant! season 4! The new OP animation + new ending is refreshing as usual. Looks like they're using the other part of the opening song (FMP/Gurren Lagann style). This episode is just blasting with hilarious lines and gags in addition to awesome neat references. I laughed so hard. NICE JAB!  |

This episode was really funny, too bad Ayumu was relegated to a TV show in the background. I thought Sakuya was cute when she blushed in the Hot Tub but I liked it more when she smacked the crap out of Hayate into the wall. That was funny. The first part was good too. The Knight Rider parody was awesome.      |

Legion17 said: I didn't mind too much, since it's just part of keeping the streak alive (making sure she's in every episode).Was it a mistake from the subbers or did they really got rid of the Ayumu-themed ending advertisement (I rememember there were ads after the OP though)?This episode was really funny, too bad Ayumu was relegated to a TV show in the background. |
