It's been a long long time since I watched it, but the scene where Hinagikutena deflected what's-his-name's fire dragon attack into the roof of the stadium reminded me of Hiei's match against somebody in Yu Yu Hakusho's big tournament arc. Hiei used his black dragon flame attack and I think the other guy deflected it into the roof of the stadium, blasting a huge hole.
Not to mention that afterwards when Hinagikutena showed off her speed to beat butler-guy, the way that scene was done was distinctly reminiscent of the scene where Ichigo is circling Byakuya at high speed shortly after releasing bankai (not that characters having after-images when moving at high speed is especially unusual in anime, just that it seemed specifically modeled after that scene). |

I didn't mean it in the sense that it's a new show completely, more like the same old awesomeness in a different package. :)
I think I can take a guess at who the other sweet-loving person is. |
I actually preferred the 1st op
|
new yuri characters o.o
|
black hayate that just made me laugh :heh:
anyways looking forward to the tournament the mysterious butler?!? i wonder who that can be :heh: |
What's up with the spinning flowers in the ED? That belongs in Higurashi, not here!
|
S_K... if you don't know who they are then you obviously fail(Doesn't that the sarcasm joke :P). ROAR!!!!

I give Klaus and Tama points for the Boukenger-esque masks though.

Klaus and Tama save the day again, although I did enjoy the Hina fight. But, I agree with most, this ep was sluggish. I don't think this show is "sliding", so to say, I think the problem is that the "combat butler" component of this series has pretty much offered all that it can. It all feels like "same-old same-old" now. I mean, there's only so often you can laugh at the idea of "OMG they're butlers AND they fight each other", and I think we passed that about a dozen episodes ago.

Great OP. This episodes really deserves a 10 out of 10! Pity I clicked on 0 out of 10 by accident...
|
Nice episode for me, and <3 Hina.
New OP is good, but new ED is not really to my liking. By the way, I think I look like this when watching Hinagiku's actions :D http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/5...4504cv4.th.jpg |
Not a bad ep at all
lots of gags though I do wish they'd go back to the manga LOL first post on iPod touch this thing is amazing |
More Hinagiku exposure makes for a good episode. I don't mind the little sidetrack of anime original material. After all, it's completely over the top just like the rest of Hayate no Gotoku.
And bonus points for the scenes of Hinagiku doing her best to thwart the superintendent. |
I wonder if there's any other show which has a second-line character with a popularity such as Hina. SO many people long to see more of her, it's really amazing.
Especially, since her _really_ strong arcs haven't even aired yet. |

Well actually... She shows up more in the manga. Why is all the good characters never get much screen time (I.E. SAKUYA-SAMA!!!!)

If this aired during Hinagiku's competition in Saimoe, she wouldn't have a problem winning. That episode was awesome. So much Hina, blushing Hina, Kendo Hina. I really enjoyed this episode even though it was only a filler.
I liked the intro, but not as much as the original. The ending was okay, but it was lacking in Hina. |
