Hayate no Gotoku manga (raw discussion only)

[musouka]

Also, in case people are interested, Hata mentioned on his blog that the reason the priest's scar eventually faded away in the series is because he didn't want those two to get mistaken for one another and only recognized his error after the fact.

*looks at my own blog post* WELL IT DIDNT WORK HATA!! DAMN YOU!!!

Something interesting was posted in Hata's diary this week.

Spoiler for Spoiler:

EDIT: Musoka said it already, but still.
Hata said the man with cross scar on the forehead is not the Father.
When he designed the character, he added the cross unconsciously so he erased it off afterwards. And the master of cafe Donguri seemed to have caused confusion too, but he is not Hayate's older brother either. What's on his forehead is hair, not scar.
Hata says that Hayate's brother is actually a gorgeous person. He wanted to let him act more, but then again, that would have thinned Hayate so he had to restrain himself.
And the Midas that Hayate's brother brought down is fully-fledged one, so it was very strong.
And it seems that the title of the next week's chapter is 'Bell chime spreads in the future'


So yeah, my guess is that Shiranui is Hayate's brother.

oh god... -__-
that title is really....

But would this make Hayate's Bro stronger than Isumi?

[Rah]

Okay, fine. Like on MF, I'll question you guys here as well. Why would Hayate's brother be anyone else just because of his scar? It was already absurd that he'd be the perverted father, but the cat? Seriously? Come on.. he's a person just like any other, and has no relation to anyone else with a cross shape on their foreheads!

Just look how Shiranui acts! I pointed this out already on MF, but it freekin' peed on Hina's arm! And it's seriously mischievous as well! Oh, wait, wait, don't tell me.. something happened to him, and while in cat form he undergoes a personality change? Or, wait! He lost his memory...! Yesss... it's PERFECT! AHahahahahahaha!!!

*sigh*

.....


Hayata's sister is a normal guy.

^____^

Hayate's brother's words were pretty similar to what Athena told and taught Hayate...Where are the copyright issues?

Isumi said so herself that Midas alone isn't tough but with Athena's power that made him become frightening.

But the meddling is the most fun part. :P

Anyway, having the word 'future' in the title of the chapter makes me think of what Hayate thought at the end of the chapter when Nagi broke the stone. Dunno what that'd lead to right now, though....

[babohtea]

Seriously, no matter what, I don't want a NagiXHayate for the ending.

Rah!!!!
You back!!!!!
I though you never come back!!!!!!!
And Hayate bro lost his memories,
now that's nice xD

[Game8910]

chapter 168 was released, the long wait is over...the gap is closed...haha those who waited now have almost 100 chapters to catch up on

[Mentar]

Chapter 263: And so I hope the UWW (Unlimited Water Works) arc is finally completed, for all eternity. Please. I guess I'm more or less solo on this, but the heavy-handed way how Hata tried to force me to recognize oh how sad and pitiful all this was again and again AND AGAIN had turned counterproductive on me a while ago already. Gotta say that I begin to understand the pain of people sick of the H.I.N.A. ED a while ago. Disclaimer before people complain: No, that's not Athena's fault, but Hata's.

Now finally back to the REALLY interesting parts. How are things going to shake out from now on?

[Rah]

Yes, yes, Hina this, Hina that, Athena this, Athena that, she deserves more, she deserves less...

Blah, blah, blah, blah....


You just don't like that your favorite girl isn't getting what you deem to be appropriate for what she did, for what she went through, or whatever. AKA proper, if not equal compensation.

Well, that's not how the world works, kay? Okay, mixing real life with manga is bad already, so I won't continue on that path. For now... haha...

Anyway, just bear with it, man. You can still look forward to a Hina confession, another birthday arc, perhaps a kiss, and definitely her and Yukiji's story arc. Ah, but that's probably not consolation enough, right? It has to be Hayate...

Well, I doubt that it will happen as things are going now, but it's possible that Hata ends it with a harem...

Or aren't you satisfied with that either?


I haven't actually read any of your profound discussions over the time I wasn't actively replying to this thread, so I don't know if I'm on the right track. Perhaps you already went over this, or maybe you just like to rant? I like doing that, too... ^____^


Oh, and I'll also add that I'm satisfied (more or less) with any outcome. Everything is fair in love and war.

People hated that ED? How is that possible? That ED was awesome. Sometimes, I'd even sing it unconsciously.

Everybody, poe poe! (and then we lust over our cousins)

you'd be surprised, in fact...there is a lot of people who disliked season 2 due to the heavy Hina focus (they prob never read the manga lol) I bet they'll love Athena even more

[Rah]

It's a mediocre anime / manga, anyway. It's not all that popular, so not many people really care, but there are extremists, right?

I wanna see Hata's house burn down after he pulls a Kannagi (or something similar).

:3

Really? I remember most people dropped the first season midway, and only returned for the "Hina Love" episode. In fact, I think season 2 was the only fair thing to do, considering Hina barely got any focus on the first season.

You, sir, have failed. *thumbs up*

A.T.A.N anyone?

Personally, I'd have love if the other girls had their own special ending in the H.I.N.A. fashion, all the while rotating each episode.

You mean getting sick and taking a year hiatus after going to the hospital while leaving everything on a cliffhanger? Well, I'm sure the fans will understand (unless its the Togashi type of illness)

[Xellos-_^]

i was re-reading some of the older chpt (209) and i gotta say, Hata sensei got great taste in anime.

I don't understand what you are saying.
If you're saying that I fail because you like Nagi X Hayate, that's fine. However, do you mean that Nagi X Hayate is probably what's going to be the ending?

EDIT: Nvm. Took a look at your profile and saw "Nagi X Hayate Group", hahaha

______________________

About the manga series as a whole: I think Hata has just gotten better as the series went on. I seriously wanted to quit reading after the first 25 chapters, but I kept on going because seeing discussions on the recent chapters interested me. I actually finished all the way up to the current chapters in 3 weeks... and by reading in that short time I can see the huge difference between the first chapters and the recent ones.

The art has pretty much remained the same, but I can understand that you want to try keep the style consistent (although a lot of popular mangas like Naruto and One Piece have slowly gotten better art-wise as the series went on).

Even though Hata is bringing up a whole buttload of Chekov's gun plot devices to give the series continuity, I feel like Hata's being restricted by some of the ridiculous early development he gave the series. The series is so different right now from the original chapters that recent plot development, while not terrible, almost feels like Dues Ex Machina. The mood just didn't match. Either way, if Hata ever finishes this, I expect it to be drastically different from the beginning of Hayate. We'll see though, won't we?
