Ruka ftw. Episode was okay I guess, kinda made me hungry. Poor Hamster lol. Oh and these eyes are kinda intense:

Whenever I see HnG I always think to myself how much better it would be if they actually followed a romantic story and not just a comedy/harem -_-

Was fun to see the Hinagiku changing scenes though xD

So there are two characters featured in this ep. lol @ Baka Test x Spice.

lol @ purple hair with megane girl arguing with Nagi for funny part & game. Wow @ Hina (well, it's expected). Wow, so that's why her question is asked... Ruka is ... lol @ the one to discuss us Hamster.

Green hair girl, so tomboyish. And same condition as Nagi. Oh, so Hikasa-san voices her.

How Hina and her sister were featured were just one thing each.

Maria!!

So it's the otaku trio this ep . It's a decent episode I guess, but definitely a step down from the previous episodes .One of the good things this episode is that Nagi isn't that annoying here so it was fun to watch .

It's really quite nice to see the nice dynamics between Nagi and Chiharu . And never knew Chiharu does the MAHOU MEIDO transformation . lol .

And from what I can remember, Ruka's conversation with Ayumu was much funnier in the manga. I dont remember why though , did they changed something ? too lazy to check .

Well about Kayura ... nothing to say about her other than she's cute and Yoko Hikasa is her seiyuu which is great .

And anyone kind enough to do the stitches for Hina's shots ? thanks . :]]

So next episode is ABOUT MARIA . MY BODY IS READY and hoping that Manglobe does not ruin it next week .

And CHIHARU won it this week . SHE IS JUST SOOOO CUUUTE .@@!

Boring yawnfest with that maid girl person. It was OK, and then I'm shot with not one, but two Hina changing scenes. I guess that compensates a little bit, but that Ruka scene was a let down. I will say that maid girl person sings very well; I thoroughly enjoyed the ED.

Meh, meh, meh. Honestly I skipped the whole episode by going through segments. Only ones I've enjoyed were Hina, and one other.

>Hayate no Gotoku sucks when Hina or plot aren't on screen/page.
quote: People Who Watch/Read 'Hayate no Gotoku' Even Though It's Clearly Not For Them.

Really. The big plot is great, but HnG is a comedy manga/anime, it's always been. When you willingly read/watch something you can see is one thing, don't criticize it for not becoming something completely different. Sure, you're allowed not to like it - but why stick around and complain?

Heck, I can understand the urge to complain. I tend to let my hatred for Hinagiku show in my comments every so often too. But even criticizing the hard work of, let's be honest, quite a lot of people must have some standards. Say what you don't like, sure - but how about stopping for a while and actually thinking why you don't like it and how could it have been done better?

And possibly the most important thing: all that complaining aside you're watching/reading it. Something makes you keep doing so and I don't think it's every other manga/anime out there being worse. So why not tell us what you do like about it (and, again, hearing why is always nice and can make others see the stuff from a new perspective) to balance the complaints and praise out?

Sure, it's the Internet and time is money, ain't nobody got time for writing essays, but still. Let's keep the good and the bad at least at a 0 if not higher. It's manga and anime, after all, and we're here to have fun.

Congratulations if you read it all, by the way. Stay positive.


And the episode? I liked it. Chiharu is one of the surprisingly few characters who's NOT in love with Hayate. Instead, she can see why the others are. Not only does it add to the believability of the "harem" (just a little, but hey, plenty of harem series don't even try), it also makes her appeal different from the others'. Not to mention the glasses. Glasses are always a plus. Wear glasses, girls.

More Chiharu is always welcomed. I'm always like her since her role increased in manga. Thought some part on manga get skipped but I'm still statisfied with this episode. No comment on Kayura thought.

And next episode is the long awaited Maria date episode.
Kickstarter for Rokujouma is fully funded. Good work everyone. Lets wait for the result of our hard work together.

Good episode!!!

Everyone seemed to have a bit of screen-time with the main focuses being on Chiharu and Kayura. It was a good adaptation from the manga and I remember that scene where Hayate was guiding Kayura around Hakuou Academy and that clock tower scene was one of my favourites. Chiharu becomes aware of Hayate's kindness to everyone to which causes Ruka and Ayumu to misunderstand her. The scene between Ayumu and Ruka about confessions was well animated in my opinion. That BBQ looked very delicious and it finished off with an expected scene of Hayate being caught off guard.

Looking forward to seeing Maria as the main focus in the next episode!!

5/5

was a great episode again!
They're really pulling out the good episodes one after the other now~

And yeah, Chiharu really is one of the few that aren't in love with Hayate (cause she's got feelings for Saku ;P), yet the others mistaked it for that xD

I do feel like they botched the Ruka scene some.

And, while a Maria episode is always great, this looks like stuff that already aired in the first two seasons.

Ah well. The real question is: what is AFTER Maria? Could the beloved Ruri show up!? That'd be an amazing way to bring in more episodes~

I heard that there is fanservice scene for Hinagiku and so I came.. and I waited and waited and waited... How come it is mostly Chiharu?? And then Kayura? But FINALLY !! Alright, I am satisfied and happy now !
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Really good episode, especially Ruka was epic in this episode, oh but Hayate sure is dense :p

But didn't he kiss Nagi in the last season?

I've honestly never understood chiharu's place in the show. I think she is a pointless character.

I know about lifting heavier shopping bags but never about walking on the side closest to the traffic. I should do that from now on. lol
Wow, successive Hinagiku fanservice and on white undies too! I want to devour her!
