[Eviltape]

This episode deserves a 10 from everyone. Gainax staff, references from most everything (NGE Angels, Koizumi's bug killing), and the immense GAR attached with TTGL's strange animation made this the best episode. Evar.

Spoiler for novels:

So when I thought Hayate met Hinagiku on campus, I immediately connected that to their arc. I was like, "OHSHI- IT FINALLY CAME" but then I realized it was just a regular anime-only arc. Geh, how cruel of them to pull such shit.
