No one's posting...because there wasn't any Hina in the ep, barring NSFW stills and Butler Network?

Anyways, it's business as usual for the cast, with quite a few chuckle-worthy moments.

Spoiler for my favourite event in the ep:

Nagi is reading off of the HnG manga: Ayasaki Hayate, main character, very plain, is equipped with a body that doesn't die, but he is also really unfortunate...(truncated)
God: Hellooooooo...
Maria: What have you been reading out loud from since just now?
God: Hello, excuse me...

Manga chapter. As humbug23 says, business as usual; it was good to see one of the better chapters animated.

Spoiler for Hina stills:

These stills are said to be done by 倉嶋丈康(Kurashima Tomoyasu), a well known eroge ("H game") illustrator such as School Days. His name is in the ending credits, so should be true. No wonder the stills are.... ecchi (for lack of a better word)?

What's there to say really? Hayate is still Hayate and that's always a good thing

It's real good to know that they're back on track with the manga for the last 2 and for the next one as well, from the preview.

Thanks for the info dahl_moon, I was wondering about that. For an anime that doesn't even have short skirts, the stills were a bit...risque. Ironically, they were used to censor violence...

I had a feeling it was him, though i had to check in the ED just in case. Beautiful stills i must say.

Is it just me or was this episode drawn better than most others?

Spoiler for ep42:

The 2nd picture looks like its from Ashita no kimi to au tame ni
and the first 2 voice sample clips from the page I linked sound a bit like the Hinagiku imo

The magic's gone?

Looks like the producers cut off the budget paving way for such generic and standard quality in the scriptwriting and animation.

Points for Hayate to understand a girl's heart : 0
Overall grade for learning other languages: F

Points for Wataru at making any progress for a relationship with Isumi : 0

So we find out Izumi is afraid of catapillers. Ones that weighs 20,000 tons and shoots electromagnetic beams.

It's been coming and going for a long time...this time it has gone.

Rather random episode...not much to my liking *sigh*

It's like they have ran out of ideas and are beating the dead horse some more...

[Godly_senselessness]

Lot of lol moments in this episode as well.

Been waiting so long for this and episode 43,it's finally here.

Ha, one of the reasons that keeps me watching. Random service is random.

[Sorrow-K]

Damn this episode had some cracking lines in it, particular in the way it made fun of itself. "It's a waste to keep him as the main character for a love comedy show that doesn't go anywhere". LOL! Funny because it's true.
