    Hayate the Combat Butler!

    This series is one that I'm looking forward to, because I really enjoy the manga, it's silly and fun, so hope it goes well becoming into an anime series.

    From ANN :
    According to the Shonen Sunday News Page, Hayate the Combat Butler (Hayate no Gotoku) will be made into a TV anime series. A future issue of Shonen Sunday will include an announcement about when the show will be aired and which network will carry it.

    Shougakukan will be screening an original Hayate animated short at their upcoming "Next Generation World Hobby Fair." The Fair will take place in a number of cities, including Osaka, Tokyo, Nagoya and Fukuoka.
    16-year-old Hayate is really down on his luck. Because his unemployed parents are good-for-nothings who waste what money they have on gambling, Hayate had to start working at a young age to help out his family. Although such experience has made him inhumanly fast and tough and skilled at things boys aren`t normally skilled it, it has also left him in an awkward position, as his parents have racked up such a huge gambling debt that they have sold Hayate to the yakuza for the value of his organs. In a desperate attempt to avoid that fate, Hayate decides to become a “bad guy” and kidnap someone to be held for ransom, but his efforts to do so are mistaken as a confession of love by the girl he targets. When he helps save the (as it turns out) ultra-wealthy 13-year-old Nagi from real kidnappers, she takes him in and gives him a job as her new personal butler (and love interest) until he can pay off his debt. But Hayate is more attracted to Nagi`s beautiful teenage maid Maria, and head butler Klaus is initially disapproving of the boy with such a poor look. And then there`s Nagi`s pet Tama, who is also a force to be reckoned with.

    I just realized that this show is a lot like Zero no Tsukaima, with some high class girl suddenly stuck with a servant. The main character type is kind of different though, since this butler guy seems to want to sincerely serve his master.

    Watch the preview, and you will find out one of your hopes is granted, and the other horribly denied.

    I think this may be the same thing shown on youtube, but it's a dvd promo with better quality, uploaded it to sendspace:

    Just watched the raw, kinda dissapointed since they missed the punchlines on a few jokes. I'll have to see if they up the pace in the next ep.

    yeah and hayate wasn't bleeding half to death when he got ran over, that added so much dramatic effect. I know they are show some censoring but 1 or 2 line of blood wouldn't have been too much.

    If i'm right then the jokes you are refering to is probably the part where hayate first met nagi and was saying how he want her and silently adding stuff like "for your money" in his mind.

    Yeah, I was dissapointed with the first episode as well. The jokes seemed forced IMO...I think I might have over-hyped this series for myself hoping it would be on par with Zero​ no​ Tsukaima.

    Though since Eclipse and SS are doing the joint it'll probably be subbed with speed so I'll at least check out the next couple episodes to see any progress.

    the manga is actually alot better than zero imo, but they didn't capture the feel of it in the anime so i'm just hoping that they'll do a better job in the future.

    Personally, I loved the line where they said they couldn't broadcast all the blood on tv. I felt it fit perfectly within the scope of this series. The principal at his school with the Gendo Ikari pose, perfect.

    This series was always about references, and so far, I felt it matched the manga perfectly. Enough that I started to skim the episode because it was so similar.

    just watched it...wasn't expecting much but it left a really good impression on me


    i loved waht they did with the classic evil side/good side argument...it was great!

    lol and santas guest appearance was great, hayate really showed him something!


    That scene where hayate saves the girl at the vending machine is pretty much the only combat in this episode, it was very brief so i can't really decide if the fight scenes are going to be great but he did make a pretty cool angry face at the bad guys

    but yeah, i have a good feeling about this series ^^
    it is always the darkest before the dawn...
