I like this episode, Izumi was funny and Yukiji's parody of Death Note was good. Nagi and Hina seems to get along pretty well too.

Maybe Nagi is delirious. :heh:

No, Nagi and Hinagiku get along perfectly fine. In fact, Hinagiku is the ONLY person in the entire show (save maybe Maria, but their relationship is a different one) who Nagi is _really_ looking up to. In general, she feels that "she can't win against" Hina, but that doesn't cause her to hate her, she rather admires her.

This is why while Nagi shows brief pangs of jealousy when she sees Hayate "cheating" on her with someone else, she immediately forgets those at the end of the episode. They don't really matter. Hinagiku on the other hand she considers to be a real threat to her (remember her "for Hinagiku's sake" monologue in a later, recent episode?)

Guess I never really noticed. :heh:

As for the episode, someone said this was the last appearence of Eight. :sad: Eight you will never be forgotten (Maybe you'll appear in fillers, and there's still the opening!)

Well. To much of a coincidence? To be sick the 1st day of the new semester... Nagi knows what shes doing xD

Not bad, but I want episode 24 more than this.

great! Wait 4 weeks

I can't wait to spot all the DN references. I watched all 37 episodes the last 2 days and the final chapters of the manga, plus the DN special premiered the same day as this episode in Japan. :heh:

that robot engineer girl is excellent. i dont know how to describe her though, except maybe 'excellent'

What does everyone have against Eight?! :upset:

Oh I don't know... He's annoying and he looks stupid, but that's just imo.

Yeah... Not a big Eight person either... Sorry Eight.
Now his creator... THAT is an entirely different story because she's quite the looker. Lucky robot... >_<

A few funny moments. The Death Note references were great. Not all that much more to this ep, though.

Looking forward to the next ep, though. Sakuya and Isumi haven't gotten enough screentime of recent eps.

couple of funny moments i actually liked how Nagi was playing up being sick and forcing Hayate to go to school anyway and of course flipping out. Hinagiku returns YAY!!!!!! her conversation with Nagi was interesting since all Nagi talked about was Hayate and Hinagiku noticed how excited she was and she no fool and she knows Nagi pretty well and this is not part of her normal behaviour, which is why i think she smiled but induldged and asked for Nagi to tell her more. I still think Hinagiku has a secret thing for Hayate nothing too serious right now but its there.

Another Death Note refrence funny

I could have swore that when idiot trio started doing there posses it was paraody of the Ginu Force from Dragon Ball Z during the Freiza Arc. can someone help?

As for Eight im going to go with Annoying and looks stupid for 500 Alex:heh:

The only thing that keeps the show going are the appearance by Hina and Maria because im really anoyed by Nagi. And finally something interesting next ep with the Isumi arc.

She was playing up being sick? She looks like she was really sick.

Of course, this episode is awesome for having Hinagiku in it. I definitely think that Hinagiku does feel that way for Hayate, especially in how they're so comfortable with each other while talking and that she really wanted to hear what Nagi did with Hayate over the summer.

I thought the idiot trio thing was a reference to Power Rangers, but I could be wrong. Especially the whole colors thing.
