I would be more happy if Ayumu drop into coma state forever with Maria and Isumi.

They suit each other.

I feel so dumb. It took me way to long to figure out why you mentioned Segawa twice.

And here's what happened

Spoiler for 232. Athena's shocking identity:

So one of the chief director of Hakuo was Athena. Hina says that Hakuo is directed by five directors, but it practically belongs to Tennous family. But since Athena is too young to handle the job, a person called Kirika is doing the job at the moment. Hina is surprised that Hayate didn't know this as Mikado is one of the five directors. Hina then remembers that Hayate only attended for about half a year. She wonders how Hayate got to know Athena's catchphrase as Athena graduated early and she stopped showing up in the school from the end of last year. She turns around to find that Hayate is not there. Hayate stumbles through a flower garden under moonlight, thinking about asking Athena for forgiveness when he meets her. Then, he runs into Athena.

[From that day,

10 years.

They did not need to ask each other's names]

This explains:

1. How Hina knows about Athena.
2. Doubt whether Nagi knows Athena or not.
3. Identity of the chief president of Hakuo.

Wait... what about the newspaper article that said 'A child from Tennous family, still missing'?
Maybe, Athena was 'lost' when she was taken into Royal Garden, then after Hayate left, she must have went back to her family.

Now, one question though. Will Hina's date be forgotten?

Well I see the plotholes getting bigger and bigger, needs to be filled up. And btw, my response to the spoiler is what? That's their reunion??? No special stuff happening, just Hayate stumbling in a garden the same way before... wait, what a coincidence. same place, same outfit (not her) and a random outcome.. wait, wut?

But I approve of this event, just both of them. NO disturbances, but I just want the others to appear for suspense.

Edit:
Yes, I was wrong on my first sentence. My mind is currently blank.

[Mentar]

I think it's rather the opposite. Hata is finally beginning to weave the story threads together.

(and I'm sure we'll get to see the date one day)

Oh oh oh!

I was partly right! I knew Athena had to have something to do with Hakuou!

One point for qwertyman!

Spoiler:

Wow, I guess she did go. Technically that means that, everyone knows who she is? I wonder how Hayate went from the balcony to the flower bed. The moon is gigantic in that backdrop. I wonder how they access the garden?

So basically hundreds of chapters later, we only made it to 1/2 a year? Yay! At least the manga won't end soon (unless it flops).

Was there a post earlier that said that most of Hayate's plot is based on Maria?

[Game8910]

wow this story is really really getting good

[Used Can]

I wonder if these random appearances in flower fields are Advent Children's references.

Anyway, I've liked this chapter. At the same time, it makes me wonder if Athena can teleport people there at will.

[aldw]

Well, if Hayate were to ever be Athena's butler again he'll need to beat the crap out of Machina to demonstrate who is the real worthy one...

As for the new developments, it's worth the wait indeed.

[xellos2099]

I am guessing that Atan or his butler will attack Hayate soon (since their main goal is to get the stone) while he is in his mentally unstable state and when it seem hope is lost Hina will jump out and save Hayate. I think this is highly possible since Hina's battle skill in the group is only second to Hayate or might be stronger if she put her heart into saving Hayate and her sword empower the user's strong emotion.

Spoiler:

彼女は・・・僕の事を覚えてくれているだろうか？
　　あんなひどい事を言って・・・
　　あんなひどい別れ方をした。
　　仮に覚えていてくれたとして・・・
　　いったいなんと話しかけたらいいのだろう・・・

　　僕の事をもし覚えてくれているのなら・・・
　　彼女は、僕の事を恨んでいるだろう。
　　なぜならあの時、正しかったのは彼女で
　　間違っていたのは僕だ。

　　僕が裏切った。
　　そして僕が傷つけた・・・


　　言わなくちゃいけない事がある。
　　あの日――
　　伝えられなかった大事な事――

　　いつか本当に、彼女に出会ったなら・・・

　　僕は――　彼女に―――

Spoiler for Possible translation:

Does that girl remember me? I wonder.
Such a cruel thing I told her.
Such a cruel departure we had.
If she happens to remember me...
How on earth would I be able to approach her properly?

If she remembers me
She surely resents me.
Because, back then, she was correct
and I was mistaken.

I betrayed her.
And thus, I hurt her feelings.

There's something I've got to tell her.
On that day...
I was unable to convey to her something important.

If I happen to meet her one day, for sure...

That girl... I...

We're still at May. And as for Maria thing, Hata said Maria's story is closely related to the central plot so the story won't progress much if he doesn't write her story little by little. After all, Maria is main heroine of HnG along with Nagi.

[leoblack9]

Since reading about the spoiler of 232 I got confused. What's A-tan got up against Mikado if she still technically owns Hakuo. How'd the hell did he kick her out of there? And if they want to have a "who's more evil" contest then Hayate's parents beat them both miles ahead.

And after not seeing each other for 10 years is the first thing she's going to do is to attack him? I don't think so, I think she'll get the gem off him by pretending to fall in love with the hero, a classic act.

[tsunade666]

I go with the attack. I don't think atan can pretend to fall in love with hayate. She the kind of
girl with pride. Plus it will just hurt her more. And as for the meeting didn't she said she lock it up? did they truly meet or is it just hayate imagining stuff? with her back in the garden?
As for mikado vs tennouse... I'm just confused on whats the point for mikado's eternal greed.

No, notice that he's no longer beside Hina. In fact, Hina herself wondered where Hayate disappeared to.

[Fandal]

So the next few weeks will be painfully long as each question gets answered and more questions will appear? What was it like around here during the "End of the world" arc?

They met on a beautiful sunset. The saw each other again on a crescent moon.

[Wargumm1i]

Okei so Hayate finally is reunited with A-tan in chapter 232?

[leoblack9]

At the end, supposedly leaving us with another cliffhanger . So stay tuned until ch233...
