pretty good episode kinda sad since i was pretty sure that Hinagiku would've given Hayate her chocolates if not for Nishizawa's appearance Kiseki said: ya lol it was a must watch part too =Dthe end with maria was nice. pretty funny how she compared herself with hayate. antifayt said: Meh... first 2/3rds of the episode was boring... zzz... wtf you talking about? Hayate is neva boring =D Yes from preview it seems like we are getting closer to Hinagiku's birthday =D only soon that incident will happen =D |

Another great episode about Valentines. What I liked (a lot): Nagi closing herself in, skipping school and not letting anyone inside of the place because she wants to do custom chocolates. Nishizawa! Liked a lot her in this episode. Hinagiku receiving so many chocolates from girls and forcing herself to eat them, LOL. Hinagiku helping Nishizawa to get Hayate into a room to meet him and confess, now that was nice. Hayate running after Nishizawa but only after being pushed by Hinagiku (great reason, to exchange for chocolate for one meant as love). This is nothing new but my experience are always I shut myself in on that day because there are always girls after me with chocolates and some too young. Some just like my appearance. Is big trouble and good thing me work in primary school but even the kids give me some. Is crazy obligation chocolate. What I did not like -Nishizawa crying because of stupid suggestion of Wataru -Nishizawa being stopped by stupid guards of school that Hinagiku goes to. My favorite scene with whole chocolate scene of Maria and her being so shy. MOE Maria! Nishizawa hug! That was nice. Hayate in cosplay another part that was LOL. |

I just hope it turns out as good as how the manga's going. Aside from that, it was a good episode. Mariya should feel special since she got Hayate's hand-made chocolate! Liked it, and I'm looking forward tot he next episode! Ah and based on the next episode's preview.. it looks like it's going to be chapters 72-74 of the manga. |

I don't read the manga since I heard there was a second season closely after I finished the first and thought that reading it might spoil the anime, and yunadestined just proved me by saying JCstaff is doing so, so for some reason, and don't ask me why, but I'm randomly looking forward towards a Maria-Hayate relationship >.<. Maybe it's cause it's just comical, maybe they would work well as a 'hard-working' couple, lol. Or Maybe it's because she's the one he liked from the beginning xD. |

everyone is having problems; nishisawa can't confess, again; hinagiku is getting chocolate from all the girls due to her tomboy attitude and can't face her feelings for hayate; maria is feeling depressed about her love life; nagi is making chocolate that you might need poison control and the bomb squad present for; hayate doesn't know what to do, and the priest ghost can't get any [chocolate] |

First half was borderline terrible, but once we got through with Ayumu, this episode began to be hilarious, with Norio butting in with narration, Maria lamenting her life, and a chocolate bake off that gave me more hilarious Maria moments. I don't remember too well, but is it just me or is Hinagiku slightly different from the first season. I can't put my finger on it, but I'm kind or surprised by her actions in this more manga centric version. I don't think I would have ever used tomboy to describe her in the first show. I guess that's what it is...instead of being this perfect character who bails Hayate out and is afraid of heights, she's more "boyish"...and still kind of bailing him out..ahhhh, I don't know. |

Of the first four episodes I liked this one the least, I usually don't get a lot of the references but I don't think there were many, if any, in this one. The comedy was basic sitcom - nothing surprising, I was expecting a "fight to the death" between Nagi, Ayumu and Hina to decide who would give him chocolate - or Tama stealing the chocolate and leaving it for Klaus or something out of the ordinary instead we got: "Tonight on Hayate the Combat Butler: While Hina and Ayumu stay strictly in character offering no suprises, Nagi, who has no practical skills whatsoever, tries to make Valentine chocolate for Hayate - general hilarity ensues. That's tonight on Hayate no Gotoku." And how come Chiharu wasn't explaining reality to Hina? Putting Miki in her place as a solo took away the obvious possibilities of the Student Council Trio telling Hina why she had so many girls giving her chocolates, how she had to eat them all but still watch what little figure she had, etc. All in all this was quite disappointing. HnG, one of my all time favorites, is rapidly devolving into medicority. I've watched the original 52 at least three times each but at this rate 13 and out might be a blessing. Screw the storyline! Bring on the talking tigers! Bring on the lame villains! Bring on the outrageous anime, game and manga references even if I don't get them! And as long as I'm ranting, this years opening is not even close to anything from last year; there is no joy or energy in it. And the Hina ending was cute - once - now it's becoming annoying. |

Thinking they are showing us her maturing like that but it might develop further. Me think this is possible scenario of Hinagiku growing but not sure, just thinking about that. |

If so, what was the point of Hina asking for Ayumu's name? Ah, I wondered about this too. But this story has to be obviously an earlier one in the manga - well, chapter 66 is a rather low number. |

JC Staff ignored the timeline of season one, backtracking to one month after Hayate becomes a Sanzenin butler. My understanding is that they are merely filling in the chapters that Synergy left out after that one month period. |

Plus that episode you've mentioned where Hinagiku and Nishizawa went on a trip together was the last episode for season 1 and technically was just a bonus chapter from the manga hence just practically being a "special" episode if one may call it so. antifayt said: JC Staff ignored the timeline of season one, backtracking to one month after Hayate becomes a Sanzenin butler.

I had to relook this up in the manga again since it's been a really long while, and after doing so, I had just remembered that the sequencing for the chapters with regards to the episodes from the first season aren't in chronological order. Infact, a few of the episodes are taken from a few chapters a bit passed chapter 66 (the chapter which episode 4 of the 2nd season was based on). |

I'm not too familiar with the manga, were there many "anime only" episodes in the original 52? It will be sad if all JC Staff's 13 episodes are based on pre-existing material from the manga with little or no acknowledgment of what's happened in the world of anime since the first episodes were created. |

chinaboat said: I'm not too familiar with the manga, were there many "anime only" episodes in the original 52? Excuse me for being blunt, but Season 1 was a complete disaster when it comes to the storylines. It was mostly true until around episode 19, and then all we got were unconnected filler, jumping around in the timeline like mad. All important _real_ storylines were omitted in S1. It will be sad if all JC Staff's 13 episodes are based on pre-existing material from the manga with little or no acknowledgment of what's happened in the world of anime since the first episodes were created. Just the other way round. Forget any S1 episode after episode 19. Now J.C.Staff is picking up the story where Synergy left it, and we finally get to see the important stuff. Just ignore the later part of S1. They didn't happen yet. |

I'll be blunt too...what looks like Hayate's main story seems to revolve solely around the Nagi, Hina, Maria, Hayate polygon. So far, I've found the actual plot to be mediocre verging on bad, and waiting with bated breath for any kind of comedy. For god's sake, they are wasting Norio Wakamoto in this version. I'm just hoping that we'll get back to some of the rapid fire pace and blazing parody that saved the first season from being a bland romantic comedy. I don't mind having a more structured plot as long as it's good, but so far, I've seen nothing good in the plot department. |

Ayumu is fairly important in the main storyline too, especially in her triangle relationship with Hina and Hayate.

I don't mind having a more structured plot as long as it's good, but so far, I've seen nothing good in the plot department. I can hardly express how fed up I was after 30 episodes of rapid fire filler without a trace of proper character development. And I remember that this sentiment was shared by the vast majority of manga fans, who were livid that all important main arcs were omitted. If you can't summon up the patience for the time they spend in the character development department, too bad for you. Rewatch S1. I bet you'll have forgotten most of it, because that was pretty much how consequential it was with the endless resets. In the meantime, please let the manga fans enjoy their parts :) |

I don't think you understood the most important part of my post: Good plot is good, and I don't mind/welcome it. Perhaps I'm being impatient, but they already techincally had 19 episodes (so you say) of setup from the first season as far as main plot is concerned. With that in mind, I've been waiting almost 2 years for the main stoyline, which I think is being quite patient myself. So, I guess the question is: Is the plot that good to need 23 episodes of set up? Good is good, and so far, they've exchanged good for bland. With the exception of the priest, of course. Also, quick questions regarding what is and isn't the main plot. -Hayate seeing Nagi's grandfather and that whole jewel stuff. -The end of the season where Hayate goes back into time (it seems to have been referenced). -The love polygon with Wataru/Nagi/Isumi/Saki. -There are others, but I'll ask them as I remember. |

Really enjoy some plot development with the romance instead of just constant action (like last episode) or just random parody episodes. Its why I don't like anime like Lucky Star because no plot development, just random encounters but at least Hayate tries to steer the the course of the series onto the main plot e.g. Hayate paying off his massive debt. I just hope it doesn't end up like SR. |

well there is actually an interesting plot to hayate, it just really depends if JC Staff is willing to stick with the manga all the way noteDhero said: Also, quick questions regarding what is and isn't the main plot. -Hayate seeing Nagi's grandfather and that whole jewel stuff. -The end of the season where Hayate goes back into time (it seems to have been referenced). -The love polygon with Wataru/Nagi/Isumi/Saki. -There are others, but I'll ask them as I remember. well as of wat i read, (i may be wrong) the seeing of Nagi's grandfather and the jewel is very important for upcoming plot The Hayate going back in time , not sure where are you exactly talking about, (two times his past has appeared so far , chapter 120s (i think) and the 180s+ (i think plz correct mee) But Hayate's past is also very important the love polygon, i dunt think is very important part of the plot yet since rite now the manga is focused on Hayate, (from wat i read) But w.e these are just wat i think plz correct me if im wrong on anything |

They have been following the manga plot and as I've mentioned before in an earlier response that, based on the preview for next week's episode, it'll be chapters 72-74 that'll be animated. So with that said, it looks like JCstaff is definitely staying true to the plot. The last episode for season 1 was just an "omake" chapter in the manga, commemorating Golden Week hence it being a "special" episode if one may call it. The jewel that Nagi's grandfather had given to Hayate plays an important part in the storyline although it isn't explained till very later in the manga. The omake chapter I mentioned above was the only other time i recall Hayate going back in time, the other chapters you're referring to if I'm not mistaken are just flashbacks that Hayate had about his past.. Those too play an important part in the plot, but knowing JCstaff.. I don't know how far they are willing to animate this series and as far as the manga is concerned, it's still ongoing and is up at like 230+ chapters now. But since there has been no official statement about how many episode JC plans to animate, I do hope they go as far as the "good" parts in the manga and those "good" parts are totally spoliers. If you've read the manga as far as I have, you'll know them. |

For example, they also have FMA Brotherhood listed for 13 episodes, even though this is almost guaranteed to run for a year.

Wee Valentine's Episode. Lol at Hinagiku receiving the chocolates instead of giving it away, sucked she didn't give hers away. Another funny part was Hayate was indirectly insulting Maria without knowing he was doing so. Sucks for Maria for missing out on her childhood and not even getting one boyfriend yet. Maria's cake looked so cool. Hayate making basic heart chocolates at the end and even giving one to Maria. |

Lol, poor Maria. ^^; Was a decent Valtine's episode, Ayumu looked cute. Mentar said: No, you guys need to pay attention. Compare a few other ANN titles where the episode count is known. Those usually say 'Number of Episodes'. All you can see right now is 'Episode Titles', that's a completely different thing and something like ANN's default setting for popular/known shows. Anime with those kind of entries on the ANN info pages don't have an episode number set in stone yet.chinaboat said: ANN lists 13 air dates for the sequel, I assume they'll all be done by JC Staff, isn't that the way it usually works?

We have the same sentiments. Honestly, I didn't reconsider the story part of this show. In fact, I really don't care if there is a story or a plot. I'm merely watching this show just for entertainment, parody, comedy, and random fun. Anyway, I didn't notice that there were a few discrepancies on the first and second season when it comes to character relations. But who cares? |

I was a little confused why they'd reference certain history and ignore others. This is going to make things a little confusing though. I loved this episode. From the Nishizawa parts to the Hina parts to the Maria parts, I thought all of them were funny and touching at the same time. I don't know how the manga storyline turns out, but I am a little afraid that they're gonna School Rumble the ending with Hayate not making any choices. While I could live with that in season 1, because the romance part was in the background, now that it's become more important, I really want to see it have a conclusive ending. It's funny how Nagi seems to be falling further and further into the background. Not that I'm complaining. There's a lot of characters in this show, and IMO, she doesn't add much to it. lol @ Wataru reading Newsweek. What is he 30? |

Maria was hilarious. Reacting the Hayate talk about relationships and then with the chocolate making. I would hope she ends up with Hayate since she seems like the most sane person around him. And with that voice and her "older" woman looks, how can he not pick her? Nishizawa is boring, but I think one can't help feel sorry for her and root for her a little. She's competing with some strong personalities and she's just a plain jane. Underdog stories are always nice. Most likely won't happen in this series though. |

cyruz said: No, you guys need to pay attention. Compare a few other ANN titles where the episode count is known. Those usually say 'Number of Episodes'. All you can see right now is 'Episode Titles', that's a completely different thing and something like ANN's default setting for popular/known shows. Anime with those kind of entries on the ANN info pages don't have an episode number set in stone yet. Exactly what I said earlier.. There's still no statement from JC regarding a definite episode count for the series.. BUT since it's JC.. we're looking at around 24-26 episodes at least.. The only other series I know that JC has taken part of to have gone way beyond the usual 24-26 episode count was Daa! Daa! Daa!(UFO Baby) and Prince of Tennis. rabbitpoets said: I don't know how the manga storyline turns out, but I am a little afraid that they're gonna School Rumble the ending with Hayate not making any choices. While I could live with that in season 1, because the romance part was in the background, now that it's become more important, I really want to see it have a conclusive ending. Don't worry, as far as the story is going on in the manga.. it's very very very very far from a School Rumble ending. I don't think the manga is even close to an ending since there's so much that Kenjiro Hata (the mangaka) plans to add to the storyline, and as he said in earlier volumes, he's planning on adding more character plots to the already huge cast for the series. Yes, there has already been an in-depth development for HayatexHinagiku, HayatexAyumu, HayatexIzumi, HayatexMaria and there's a few more I'd mention but that would be way too many spoilers already.. lol! |

Really? Izumi? From the school council? Wow, that's unexpected. But a nice surprise, because I do like her character. lol, full on harem eh? Sounds like we could be seeing more seasons of Hayate. I'm not really picky as to who he'll end up with, as I like most of the characters, I just hope he chooses someone... Well, besides Nagi. ;-) |
