Hayate the Combat Butler Vol. 44

Hayate the Combat Butler Vol. 44

A hilarious tale of butlers, love and battles!

Whatever problems this manga runs up against, the solution is always the same: add more girls! Hayate’s recent castle dungeon crawl (don’t ask) has introduced him to Konoha, who has a thousand problems, but getting guys’ attention ain’t one. This spells trouble for all the girls with crushes on Hayate. But things aren’t any easier for the girls without crushes on him, as Saki accidentally reveals her feelings for Wataru, and Chiharu accidentally reveals her double life as a maid. Plus, and the Movie Study Club deliberately exposes the world to the greatest cat video ever made.

Serie Overview: Hayate no Gotoku!Hardworking Hayate has a plan to pay back the yakuza, who are now the legal owners of his body parts. He’ll kidnap someone and ransom them for a mountain of money! But things get tricky when his would-be kidnapped, who as luck would have it is the daughter of a mind-bogglingly wealthy family, mistakes Hayate’s actions for a confession of love and subsequently hires him to be her personal servant. At least his employment future is secure, or so he thinks

Biographical Notes:

Without ever receiving any kind of manga award, Kenjiro Hata’s first series, Umi no Yuusha Lifesavers, was published in Shonen Sunday Super. He followed that up with his smash hit Hayate the Combat Butler.

Title Notes:

The story follows Hayate Ayasaki, a boy who becomes a butler to pay off his massive debt, combining elements of comedy, action, and slice-of-life in an engaging way.

A diverse cast, including quirky side characters and strong female leads, adds depth and variety to the story, each bringing their own comedic flair.
