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

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.

This was a great episode. But did anyone notice that they used a similar Initial D reference as Lucky Star did? and LOL @ DBZ.

Yes, if I'm correct the first half was taken from Volume 2. Both halves were actually pretty hilarious.

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.

Well, that's actually a little peeve I have with it at times. Thankfully Hayate pulls itself up from it's occasional slumps.

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.

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.

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.





Did you know there's a Phantasy Star Club?

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.

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)?

Good episode overall, knight rider parody was freaking hilarious, mixed with the initial D parody. Man hayate's denseness level rises once again after not understanding whats wrong about inviting her into the bath xD if it was maria, he would have already been blushing the second he noticed there was an onsen =/

I had to do a double take when I saw the Knight Rider parady. I wasn't expecting that one. During this episode, I couldn't help but be annoyed at Nagi's selfishness. She expects so much out of Hayate. Does she really think that that's what butlers and "boyfriends" are supposed to do? But putting that aside, it was a pretty funny episode.

It was an alright episode. I loved the racing segment and Initial D reference. It was cute how Nagi was so pumped to watch the New Year sun set with Hayate only to fall asleep.

Lol at Sakuya leaving Hayate there at the end. If you're making jokes then I guess you mustn't be that hurt right? Or atleast that was Sakuya's reasoning ^^

Great episode the Knight Rider reference had me cracking up. I love when lesser known western properties get referenced in anime. I also like the third gen Trans Am.
