Hayate no Gotoku manga (raw discussion only)

[bowow0708]

Finally Hina is going on the offensive, but it's also a good thing that she realized that Hayate the the absolute best and worst timing in the history of mankind.

What? No one is talking about the awesome splash page featuring adult Athena in a pool in a bikini?

well, I instant save the picture

about Hayate X Hina chapter... I doubt it's going to be any development
Hina won't be able to get rid of her "shyness"

anyway, A-tan is in danger?

[Anh_Minh]

Or the murderer is in danger.

[Mentar]

Since there is no way in hell that anything positive will come out of it (no prior buildup), I'll count on another Hayate-too-dense-to-get-it resolution.

I still think this will be Hata-sensei taking Hinagiku out of the romantic equation. And then he'll probably proceed to take out Ayumu after.

[dark44]

how he take out only if she have another love interest ayumu already rejected twice and still didnt give up may be A tan go out by machina or hemigami as love interest but hina and ayumu have no one yet

I think this will be a way to remove Athena from the group for now since she's not part of the movie nor CTMEOY. I don't think there will be any change in status for Ayumu or Hina for now until the manga is nearly ready to end.

i still cant understand why Athena is not animated yet despite being popular in the manga. Actually i like Athena the most among the heroines in the manga

Honestly, probably for the same reason she's not in the manga much. Why use the anime to promote a character that has barely had a presence in the manga the last four years?

Granted she's a bit more involved now but I kinda expect her to disappear again for a while after this arc.

I don't think there's a need to do anything for Ayumu, really. I'm up in the air with Hina...she's not connected with the main plot so there isn't really a "good" time to handle her, it just comes down to when Hata feels like doing it. I dunno, I'm waiting until next week before I speculate too much.

[MCAL]

Was there supposed to be a chapter this week? Because I don't see any raws either and they usually come out by now.

[AstroNerdBoy]

There's supposed to be a chapter this week. Not sure why it is taking so long.

[GDB]

Maybe all the scanners are in mourning with The World God Only Knows ending?

[AstroNerdBoy]

More likely they are goofing off...like I am right now. (Seriously, I'm supposed to be spring cleaning, but surfing the Net is so much more fun.)

[MCAL]

Okay so apparently no new chapter, but there was something released called an Extra Chapter. Which is kind of a bummer....

Didn't stop it from being hilarious though. Oh Yukiji-sensei...

[AstroNerdBoy]

Disappointing, to say the least, especially since we waited beyond Wednesday to read it.

So, we'll have a new chapter next week, then there's the Golden Week break.

[Sean Gaffney]

After the whole 'saving to buy a guitar' chapter, this feels even worse. There is no character development, there is only Hayate no Gotoku.

Also, how often do we get to say 'poor Aika...'?

[pampz21]

.....
Aika why'd you lent "that" some money?

[GDB]

What an awful chapter. How are we expected to truly believe that she's always scraping for money when she gets a $10k summer bonus, and can get advanced what looked like another $30k? That alone is as much or more than what most teachers in the US make in a year, and she went through it in less than a week. I know it's supposed to be humorous that she's bad with money, but that's just asinine.

Well, it is a bad chapter. That being said, I can believe that Yukiji would blow that kind of money because she blows everything she ever gets as soon as she gets it.

As to her pay, she is teaching at a prestigious, wealthy school, so they can afford to pay more. I think Kaoru-sensei makes something like $55K/year, not counting bonuses.
