Anyway, I should post something relevant.... like.... Say, was it just me, or were this week's raws a relatively long time in coming? I think I heard something about the usual raw provider site blowing up, but I don;'t know how true that is.... anyone know?

Btw, Ch 253 was the most legit Hayate X Nagi, or even Hayate X Anyone scene I think this series has debuted so far. However, I'm not so sure that "most want to protect" = "love". What do you think o_o? Esp with the whole "look even our names match!" thing that Nagi has going for her. Also, anyone notice how trite "be with me forever" is becoming in HnG? I mean, seriously; it kind of takes away from the meaning of it after the third or fourth time. I know little kids say "friends forever!", but I think the only one qualified by that criteria would be Nagi.

I was half expecting something like this, but I thought Hayate would be the one to let go of Athena, not the other way around....although I still cant shake off the feeling that hayate wont stay quiet about this.
If Hayate manages to convince Athena then maybe my theory of her helping Nagi financially and lending her 1 of her homes to live in Japan can still live

Hayate is never going to consciously ditch a girl. He's too much of a hero xD
Yeah I'm still hoping for an Athena ending too. She was introduced last but somehow has still managed to win my heart support somewhere along the way. With any luck this will be resolved well but I'm betting theres gonna have to be a lot of tears and angst along the way..

 Give me time to read the chapter first at least. But you'll remember that I said _before_ it happened that my opinion on Athena will be shaped by how she'll deal with the Nagi dilemma. And I said that if she genuinely releases Hayate to do his duty, she'll rise in my personal ranking quite a lot. This _is_ a major sacrifice, without a doubt. I can understand your disappointment, but - for what little it's worth - having Athena leave now in this noble way actually _increases_ her end-run chances in my book. Because she remains as Hayate's "Suki na hito", even if he now proceeds to take care of Nagi. Had Athena made a grab for Hayate and thus implicitly positioned herself _against_ Nagi, I doubt that she would have stood a real chance in the long run. This way, she retains her special position and gains major karma points. So, even if you do decide to phase out with Athena, I'd keep an eye on the progress anyway. If it happens the way it's indicated, we won't have seen the last of her. |

Guys, I appreciate the intention, but don't post links to imepita, they never last too long. (Read: I cannot see the pics. ;_; )
Anyway, having Athena leave is the best thing Hata can do, in my opinion. If he keeps her around, I don't think he'd be able to keep the series in the same way (i.e. romance-comedy with harem), taking into account the relationship Hayate and Athena have. But, all the same, I've got to say I'm satisfied with this arc. Whilst I feel Hata stretched it in many occasions, in the end I can say I've liked it, and I think this has been my favourite part in the whole manga.

ehhhh when people take pic links from 2ch... than please reupload them on different servers.... since 2ch page delates pictures really fast so all those links are dead by now..... so cant see any pic of the spoiler.....
anyway Hayate was so screwed up...... 10years of waiting to reunite with athena... and the purpose he had no girlfriend....... and Athena just stops here >__< ....the same Hayte is left in a spot that he doesnt know if tis the end for him and athena forever so he can get a normal girlfriend.... or he will stay like for the past 10years... waiting for athena and wont get any girlfriend becouse of it..... personaly I dont want to see NagixHayate becouse its just wrong...... I root for AthenaxHayate or HinaxHayate..... cant see any different ending ^^ (athena sacrificed kinda more than nagi... she kinda backed off from hayate... like sacrificeing her own love...... while nagi only money that she did not worked for but she got from mother/grandfather and was spoiled by it (well hayate desroyed athenas house too :P).... I would be WAY WAY better if she tagged along to Japan... her presence would develop all girls around hayate... well Hina might start to dig what happened with Athena and the same learn that she stayed in greece and wont be comeing here.... so she might think this is her opportunity.... yet she has no idea that nagi crushed that stone and so she could have lost the inheritance (maybe athena calls mikado and says to give it back since mistress destroying the stone was not in the rules ) yet it would lead to where it started.... like nothing happened |

Well looks like Hata is taking a break from all of these seriousness. Seems that we're going to have a couple of chapter's dose of lighthearted comedy.
Seems like a logical decision to me, to give way for other character development (as others pointed out) and possibly time to let the angst sink deep for the angsty fans (hmm, i'm partially affected, bleh). Hopefully, the stage will be set for her next appearance, somewhere someplace Hayate will be in deep shit and its his turn to be saved ^.^ Quote:

It would be a foolish mistake to let her go now. Especially this way. She can easily fit together with the group, even if they don't do anything love-orientated, though perhaps Hata doesn't have the capacity to imagine the scenario without at the same time messing everything up between the other girls (like they even stand a chance, hah!).
1. They part 2. Athena turns around, and starts to walk away; Hayate grabs her hand, and hugs her tightly, conveying his feelings... 3. They make some lame promise that they'll see each other again sometime... -_- Come on, just introduce Athena as a normal girl in the cast! The normal cast (even if you include Fumi & Sharna) is getting boring. Hina won't do anything at this point, Ayumu will just hope for all eternity, and the others are all bakas anyway.

yeah since its really boring when its allways the same:
1) nagi plays games and goes into manga/anime referance in her talk 2) Isumi getting lost in every possible place 3) Maria beign a normal maid.... 4) the girls tio... pranks, teasing hayate 5) Ayumu liveing with all that hope that hayate will love her... 6) Hina returning to her seriousness as president of hakuo >__> Hata already overused all of those soooo much that its already boring.... Athena kinda gived a refreshment to the story and the plot somehow moved further... and what now... Hayate is even more obligated to watch over nagi....so he wont be able to get another girl... seriously its more like a curse than life.... you cant do what you like becouse there is a girl with 1sided crash that thinks hayate loves her (and not that he is doing his work and has no romantic interest inyounger girls.. since it gives the perophile impression)... and what she did will force him to remain at her place even throught he doesnt love her that way... Well I doubt that Athenas current disapperance will do any better.... and bring the comedy aspect.... its rather immposible to revert back... becouse Hina is depressed... Ayumu i depressed too after learning the truth.....we dont know what will happen with Nagi and Maria as she crushed that stone if they are forced to leave the mansion will this be pointed as comedy... or more like a drama (hayate will feel depressed that its his fault that this happened) now mostly Hina will be depressed becouse of what she saw with Athena and Hayate... she might think that they are now lovers or something....she might start to dig the truth of what happened with athena (but from hideing sinde she was disguised as the hero..) so I dont see returning to the comedy aspect that fast... the drama will change its form from Athena-Hayate to Hinagi or nagi who lost her moeny... Sadly I really hoped that athena would be made into standard character (besides what happened with that ring... well they are not adults yet so maybe in future they will end up together as they made the promise before god in RG :P)... since I wont survive if they return again to the Nagi-slacking off- playing games all day- ect. |
