Anime Banzai ! - アニメ万歳！- For Fans, By Fans

After a boring episode previously (episode 49 which I didn’t blog for that reason), Hayate No Gotoku! got back on track and this episode is filled with funny scenes. Nagi and Ayumu (Hamster) participated in the High School Girls Ultra Quiz for the prize that the winner will get. Here’s Hayate No Gotoku! - 50..

I like Hayate No Gotoku! very much and I’m very happy to hear the news. Even though it’s already 52 episodes long, I still can’t get enough of it. Why? Because of certain things that Hayate No Gotoku! have and other animes don’t. One of the obvious one is the wide variety of lovable characters. From the tsundere-Nagi to the can’t-help-but-to-love-Maria and other awesome characters such as the perfect-girlfriend-material-Hinagiku.

Other things that I love about the series are the characters breaking the 4th wall and the anime references. Hayate No Gotoku! has minimum plot and most of the episodes are not related to the plot at all. But I don’t mind and it’s good to watch animes like this once in a while. I don’t even mind if Hayate No Gotoku! goes on forever because I will never get tired of it. So, I hope that the 2nd season will be at least 52 episodes long just like the 1st one.

I’m a little late as always. I watched this episode last night and I thought to myself that this is a must blog episode. The episode focuses on Hinagiku, one of the most loved character in the series. This episode is one of my most waited episode in Hayate No Gotoku!. So here’s Hayate No Gotoku! 48..

I decided to write reviews for Hayate No Gotoku! because I have nothing much to do (not really). I love this anime very much and I watched the anime since the beginning. I’m a little late (very late) for writing reviews for the anime on the 45th episode (near end) and I should have done this a long time ago..

It’s summer holidays ~

[Impressions]

While we have Konata and the rest enjoying the summer heat in Lucky Star, It’s summer holidays ! What will be the best thing to do for summer in Hayate no Gotoku!

Yukiji - dragged to enjoy some bug catching by Miki and the rest (lol..no more booze drinking)
Hayate - Trying to learn a new ultimate skill during the holidays.. (-.-)
Nagi - fun? fun..more fun! to be with Hayate during the holidays
Maria - as usual
Klaus - sigh..
Ayumu - Thinking of Hayate..what else. and a showdown with Nagi which left Ayumu utterly defeated in a karoke singing.
Hinagiku - completed her summer homework (aww)
Isumi - not enough screentime, hence she was featured in butler netork for her character song.

Ayumu and Nagi definitely shows a improvement in the hamster-dragon relation and Ayumu declares competiton with her rival…which Nagi gladly accepts. Next episode, some action packed scenes..the robot appears yet again !

Wataru

[Impressions]

Another crazy episode in Hayate no Gotoku!, we have “The Ring” parody instead, Wataru explains to Hayate and Maria later on that Nagi rented the fake copy instead where it is rumored a cockroach will appear in the end instead and this led Maria very restless for she is very scared of cockroaches (that reaction she had was lol). Back to Wataru, he realizes that Saki has been very quiet and sighing often, this makes him wonder if it was because he had forgotten her birthday, which is also the year she has for the Coming of Age (. Wataru decide to make it up for her by buying a yutaka for her but in the end, the reason why Saki was sighing’s coz she was thinking what color she should buy for her cellphone (-.-) The cockroach’s appearance was very lame and it’s strong but not good enough for Isumi. The pendent that Hayate wore activated as well, not sure of the reason but I guess it would be explained in the future episodes.

The episode ends well with the whole lot admiring the fireworks at summer festival and concludes with a bit “fanservice” of Maria’s expression with a lil cockroach on her shoulder. This episode is good and the Ring parody was funny enough although the cockroach’s appearance was kindda lame. Anyway, next episode is gonna be exciting as we gonna have Ayumu making her appearance as part of the story. The battle between the dragon and the hamster..who shall prevail yet agiain… :P

3-baka

[Impressions]

heh..I was suprised when they mentioned the Hinagiku fanservice shots (which Nagi isnt happy about it as it is irrelevant) were meant for screencapping maniacs (lol), hesitated on my screencapture button but heck! In this episode, it was pretty unexpected as I thought they would enjoy themselves on the island, in fact they didnt. Live alligator, killa whales and mechas? omg -.- Unfortunately, Hinagiku didnt join them because she is afraid of planes (awww). Lots of anime references in this episode as well and imo, I found that the 3 girls above are somehow the main focus in this episode. yea…they dont get much screen time dont they ? ;) Fanservice, parodies…this is the episode you can get your fingers busy by doing some screencapture before we go to the main thing in the next episode where we have some “close moments” between Maria and Hayate.

Hinagiku and Hayate <3

[Impressions]

Nagi decides to do something that she never done before to gain some experience points (just like an RPG?), in the end, it was a mess. It is all up to Hayate to pacify his little master and guide her along the path. The first manga scene got me laughing and the later scenes keeps the ball rolling. I wonder how much experience Nagi learnt from this “lesson”. None, i guess or rather in a wrong way. Some references I noticed was from SHnY and Char Aznable.

Next episode is something that gets me highly anticipated - a summer holiday at the beach episode (yes..that scene in the ED2). It’s gonna be another crazy episode again as it seems like all of Nagi’s friends are going. lol. I am in love with this scene above - Hinagiku and Hayate, again, I wish they were lovers cos they would make a compatible pair (lol..although this is a comedy anime). Thanks to Hayate, the whole was saved from a disaster by Nagi - Yukiji was one poor thing to drink that “soup” .

Nagi Sanzenin with such a sweet smile

[Impressions]

It’s just so fun to watch 2 comedy animes in a night, this episode of Hayate no Gotoku! rox. Instead of going into the fight, the butler from Azumamiya teaches his master a lesson for being weak and relying on someone. Nonohara proves to be strong indeed and in fact, Hayate was unable to withstand his ultimate move. The fight was funny though especially when you have Nagi around -.- The fight aside, Hinagiku shows another obvious hint that she is attracted to Hayate again, this time in a more direct way. Unfortunately for the blockhead Hayate, he did not get it and was also distracted by Nagi as well. Although, this is a comedy..somehow I was hoping for a Hinagiku and Hayate kind of ending (lol..fat hope though..the anime still has a very long way to go) and good gracious….Tama with that pair of wings behind it was WTF (lol)

The main story ended early in this episode and I was wondering what happened not until when I realized there were 4 parody scenes. The Tama’s scene is another wtf again, was laughing my a*s off. This episode is indeed very well done. Graphics, flow, humor…all top notch and whats for next episode ? Nagi is going to realize the way of life! She lacks the experience points gained hence….she is going to dress up as a maid this time and learn the “way”. I expect Maria to have a tough time in the next episode too :P

Hinagiku-san

[Impressions]

It is no longer a dream for Hayate, it is now a reality and all thanks to Maria-san, Hayate is now able to enter school. Things are not that smooth for him though as other butlers and many weird people are in the school as well. 2 butlers makes their first appearances in this episode. Himuro (man..he loves flowery entries) and Nonohara Kaede (Ichimaru Gin clone ?), this 2 butlers seem to pose a threat to Hayate. In fact, Hayate have to fight Nonohara Kaede in the next episode as it seems like his master, Azumamiya-san is jealous of Hayate that Hinagiku is calling him by his first name. (and vice versa).

The most funniest scene ought to be the part when Yukiji makes an introduction of the new transfer student (Hayate, obviously) as some kind of superstar…that part was so funny as they have references to Orlando Bloom and Brad Pitt (lol). Next episode is gonna be exciting as Hayate battles Nonohara. ;) Maria remains as a passive role in the episode though, I wonder will it remain this way for the next few episodes ..hmmm….and oh! Nagi is a high school student although she is 13…the reason? she does not want to spend so much time in school hence she worked hard and skipped grades. (it is indeed a mystery where she acquire that kind of intelligence)

whoa!! Kawada Mami sings the 2nd ED for Hayate no Gotoku!, a very nice song and the new ED animation sequence is so cool - summer at the beach! The song’s title is Get My Way! if i am not wrong but on the overall, ED1 was still better. In this episode, Hayate finally knows that  he had failed his entrance exams and depressed he is, Maria-san was there and gave him the miracle (otherwise, i guess this series could just end here ..LOL). Yes! Maria gave him a student ID for the school! wow!

Hinagiku’s still my fave character in Hayate no Gotoku! bishoujo and she rawks with an unique attiude. :P Well, one thing I like about this anime is its slapstick humors and its various references to other animes or elements (nothing beats the “censorship” though)

Next episode is gonna get exciting since Hayate can attend school, lots of new characters i guess..and yea…lots of new action as Hayate and Nagi goes to school together.

Tama digging its nose… -.-

[Impressions]
When I saw Hayate studying English through the help of Moe-tan, I was like wtf? isnt that an upcoming anime ? This epsiode is simply hilarious as usual but I didnt expect that though. As mentioned in the previous episode post of Hayate, I made a mistake in thinking that Nagi was going to Hayate’s school but rather, Nagi wants Hayate to transfer to her school instead and to get in, Hayate has to take the entrance exams and to make matters worse, the exams is the next day. Hayate is trying very hard to drill all the stuff into his brain but too bad, Klaus and Tama kept him “well awake” in the night. (as usual..Tama is so funny and Klaus in that childhood flashback scene was wtf).

I liked the part when this question on why manholes are round, this question’s my fave last time and I loved to ask ppl that. Well, you can google on that for the answer though and oh…I wonder how will Hayate deal with Ayumu’s confession ? hmm… ;)

Nishizawa…and a tiger Tama

[Impressions]
Ep11 wasnt that funny though, it talks about Nagi and the whole lot on their visit to Nagi’s grandfather, Mikado who is also the head of the Sanzenin family. Nothing much that is funny but an important point was that shown is that the grandfather handed Hayate a precious stone telling him that it will serve him as a guide and will be useful to him in the future. Well, seems like the stone is giving out some kind of aura (-.-)

Ep12 was what that caught me laughing non stop for the entire episode. The beginning was already LOL -.- Ayumu managed to find out where Hayate lived and she had expressed her love to Hayate…and of course she knows her rival too - Nagi. The scene where Tama chased Ayumu was another crazy scene (horny tiger, eh? :P) One obvious reference in this ep was the short scene they showed Suzumiya Haruhi and the other was the part about Wataru talking about Getsumen to Heiki Minna. Ayumu retreated from Nagi but Hayate is now aware of her feelings and looks at her as she ran off. Nagi seems sad and starts to think about the times she had with him and so..she decided to do something for him. It will be shown in the next episode - They are going to study in Hayate’s old school. Man..I bet that will be amusing to watch…LOLZ

Sakuya & Nagi

[Impressions]

This is simply the best comedy episode ever, it takes a step back out of the plot and begins on a plot of its own. An episode full of parodies from various anime/games. You can easily spot a few obvious ones. Remember the controllers that appeared in earlier episode. Seems like it is a trap that was sought out by demon queen that resides Nagi’s Famicom game. Izumi, Risa and Miki were the fortunate ones to be trapped by the controller and sent to the game’s dimension where Hinagiku joined in later. lol…seriously damn hilarious. Some of the references include Mikuru from SHnY, Akuma from Street Fighter, Akazukin . While it seems like a seamless and wonderful storyline, Nagi and Maria is pleased with the script (as if they were outside of this anime series) and thanked people for the support on the anime. and yes…about Maria’s age….it was really LOL.
