[00:04] ---
    When watching "Hayate the Combat Butler",
[00:06] ---
    please keep the room bright and
    sit well away from the TV.
[00:08] ---
    That's right.
[00:10] ---
    A butler is one who serves.
[00:13] ---
    A butler is one who waits upon others.
[00:16] ---
    A butler is a formal guardian,
[00:19] ---
    who is there to support his mistress
    in all aspects of her life.

[00:23] ---
    Yes!
[00:24] ---
    This is about a boy who fights and puts
    his life on the line for a girl...

[00:28] ---
    A super combat battle story!
[00:32] ---
    Ladies and gentlemen,
[00:33] ---
    thank you for watching "Hayate
    the Combat Butler" again today!
[00:36] ---
    Now, let us sing the theme song together!
[00:39] ---
    Daichi ni kaketa bokura no yukue
[00:39] ---
    Our destination that we've
    staked upon this earth
[00:45] ---
    Tsuki-nukeru hayate no gotoku
[00:45] ---
    Like the sudden gale that cuts across
[00:52] ---
    Unmei ni makete
[00:52] ---
    Giving in to fate
[00:55] ---
    Shagami-komu nante tsumannai yo
[00:55] ---
    And hunkering down is no fun
[01:00] ---
    Sore ja kakko warui yo!
[01:00] ---
    That's just not cool!
[01:04] ---
    Uso kara deta makoto
[01:04] ---
    Many a true word is spoken in jest
[01:08] ---
    Koukai wa kitto mi kara deta sabi
[01:08] ---
    Regret is probably reaping what you sowed
[01:13] ---
    Zettai, nase ba naru!
[01:13] ---
    Where there's a will,
    there's definitely a way!
[01:16] ---
    Ooki na hamon ni nomi-komareteku
[01:16] ---
    As a great rippling wave swallows us up
[01:23] ---
    Karada nami ni makasereba
[01:23] ---
    Just let it take you
[01:30] ---
    Kanchigai no yume
[01:30] ---
    Dreams that are misguided
[01:33] ---
    Mato-hazure no kitai
[01:33] ---
    Hopes that are way off base
[01:36] ---
    Tsuyoku omoeba itsuka tsukameru sa!
[01:36] ---
    You'll grab them someday,
    if you just have conviction
[01:42] ---
    Daichi keri-age hashiri-dasou
[01:42] ---
    Let's kick up the earth and start running
[01:49] ---
    Kimama ni mau kaze no gotoku
[01:49] ---
    Like the capricious breeze that dances about

    I Hear That Those Who Rule the
    Summer Rule at Entrance Exams
[02:27] ---
    I wonder what Miss Nishizawa's
    doing right now.
[02:48] ---
    One family sort of group...
[03:02] ---
    Five to six customers...
[03:15] ---
    Two couples...
[03:29] ---
    One old man...
[03:42] ---
    Full house...
[03:56] ---
    No customers...
[03:59] ---
    Welcome.
[04:00] ---
    Let me see...
[04:02] ---
    Anmitsu with ice cream, egg-drop
    New Year's soup, tokoroten jelly,
[04:06] ---
    kudzu mochi, Abekawa mochi,
    isobe-yaki rice cakes,
[04:08] ---
    country style zenzai, and a cream soda.
[04:11] ---
    I'd like all those things, please.
[04:13] ---
    Y-Yes, ma'am.
[04:17] ---
    I wonder what Hayate's doing right now.
[04:40] ---
    Come to think of it, I wonder what
    Miss Nishizawa was doing here.

[04:44] ---
    ...and take this girl...
[04:46] ---
    ...and lick her all over!
[04:49] ---
    Hayate!
[04:51] ---
    Lightning Kick!
[04:59] ---
    Oh? Miss Nishizawa?
[05:00] ---
    I-I'm so glad! It is you!
[05:04] ---
    And the commotion with the
    Miss on top of that...

[05:21] ---
    The Miss...
[05:23] ---
    and Miss Nishizawa...
[05:29] ---
    A delivery for you.
[05:30] ---
    Thank you very much.
SIGN    Hakuou Private Academy
SIGN    Miss Nagi Sanzenin
[05:39] ---
    Still, I feel bad about doing
    that to Miss Nishizawa...

[05:52] ---
    I love you, Hayate!
[05:54] ---
    What?!
[05:55] ---
    I don't want this to be good-bye!
[05:58] ---
    So won't you please go out with me?!
[06:02] ---
    But right now, I have no business
    going out with a girl anyway.

[06:06] ---
    What?! Uh, um...
[06:09] ---
    I'm sorry.
[06:10] ---
    What?!
[06:11] ---
    The truth is...
[06:13] ---
    ...I'm only interested
    in 2-dimensional things.
SIGN    Crushed!!
[06:18] ---
    There must have been a better
    way to turn her down...

[06:23] ---
    Hayate, you jerk!
[06:29] ---
    But I have no idea what I should
    do in situations like that.

[06:34] ---
    But why did I think of
    the Miss right then...?

[06:43] ---
    Is that you, Hayate?
[06:44] ---
    Yes.
[06:46] ---
    Miss, a delivery has arrived for you...
[06:50] ---
    Oh, thanks. Go ahead and open it for me.
[06:55] ---
    Miss.
[06:57] ---
    You are technically a girl,
    so please don't read like that.
[07:03] ---
    R-Right...
[07:05] ---
    I bet this is how it feels to be a big
    brother worried about his kid sister.

[07:09] ---
    It'll be a long time before I
    have time for a girlfriend.

[07:11] ---
    I have my hands full with the Miss already.
[07:14] ---
    By the way, what is this?
[07:16] ---
    It looks to be some documents
    from Hakuou Academy...
[07:19] ---
    Oh, the transfer application,
    right? For you?
[07:23] ---
    Oh, for me.
[07:27] ---
    Wait! What do you mean, for me?!
[07:29] ---
    They're documents for you
    to transfer into Hakuou.
[07:32] ---
    No, no, I haven't heard about this.
     This is news to me!
[07:35] ---
    And I'm delivering the news!
[07:37] ---
    B-But I was dismissed from my old school!
[07:40] ---
    I already know that.
[07:42] ---
    What?
[07:44] ---
    Because I sent for documents
    from that school, too.
[07:47] ---
    Oh, look. Here they are.
[07:50] ---
    B-But what about the tuition?!
[07:53] ---
    I don't have those kind of financial means.
[07:56] ---
    What are you saying?
[07:58] ---
    I'm paying for it, of course.
[08:00] ---
    B-But...!
[08:03] ---
    Honestly! What's the problem?!
[08:06] ---
    Don't you want to go to school with me?!
[08:11] ---
    Besides, this is sort of
    my way of thanking you,
[08:15] ---
    so don't worry about it.
[08:18] ---
    I'll get to go back... to school...
[08:21] ---
    Miss... Thank y...
[08:23] ---
    Whoa! What are you crying for?!
[08:25] ---
    Because... Because...
[08:28] ---
    What did you do to make him cry?
[08:30] ---
    No, no! I didn't make him cry!
    Hayate just started on his own!
[08:42] ---
    According to this document,
[08:44] ---
    it seems you'll still have to
    take a transfer admission test.
[08:48] ---
    Well, if he is to claim
    to be a Sanzenin butler,
[08:52] ---
    he had better be able to pass a mere
    transfer admission test from Hakuou.
[08:56] ---
    Oh, my, Mr. Klaus!
[08:57] ---
    You're alive!
[08:59] ---
    Please don't go killing
    me off so thoughtlessly.
[09:02] ---
    So, well... If he doesn't pass,
    let's just say he'll be fired.
[09:06] ---
    Hey! After all this time?!
[09:08] ---
    That's fine.
[09:12] ---
    If I don't pass after everything
    you've done for me,
[09:15] ---
    it would be inexcusable!
    As a butler and as a man!
[09:19] ---
    So I shall put it on display for all of you!
[09:21] ---
    My... My most earnest effort!
[09:24] ---
    Incidentally, Hakuou Academy requires
    a standard score of over 65.
[09:30] ---
    I...
[09:32] ---
    I will be fine!
[09:33] ---
    Fine!
[09:34] ---
    Incidentally, the transfer
    admission test is tomorrow.
[09:38] ---
    A f-fart in a windstorm
    is not necessary, Miss.
[09:43] ---
    But I wonder if Hayate
    really will be all right.

[09:46] ---
    Considering his grades at his last school,
[09:49] ---
    it's honestly going to be tight.
[09:57] ---
    Where's Hayate?
[09:59] ---
    He's studying.
[10:02] ---
    I see.
[10:13] ---
    Come in.
[10:17] ---
    How is it going?
[10:19] ---
    Well, it's coming along.
[10:21] ---
    Please try not to let your
    nerves get the better of you.
[10:25] ---
    Yes, ma'am!
[10:33] ---
    I'll listen to Maria's advice
    and leave it at that.
[10:44] ---
    H-Head Butler!
[10:46] ---
    Please wake up! Please
    wake up! This is my bed!
[10:53] ---
    Good morning.
[10:56] ---
    It is not morning yet!
[10:58] ---
    Please leave!
[11:00] ---
    Hayate Ayasaki, you misunderstand me.
[11:04] ---
    What?
[11:06] ---
    I, too, want you to be
    admitted to Hakuou Academy.
[11:10] ---
    I want you to pass tomorrow's
    transfer admission test!
[11:14] ---
    Do you really mean that?
[11:15] ---
    Do these eyes look like those of a liar's?
[11:20] ---
    You're scaring me.
[11:23] ---
    Sorry.
[11:24] ---
    If you have my best interests at heart,
[11:26] ---
    please leave and let me sleep.
[11:28] ---
    I have your best interests at heart
[11:30] ---
    and that's why I came to relate the
    story of my entrance exam experience!
[11:33] ---
    No, thank you!
[11:35] ---
    Yes, thank you!
[11:37] ---
    You're being unreasonable!
[11:39] ---
    Oh, really! This is not necessary!
[11:39] ---
    This was back when I applied to enter
    a prestigious private kindergarten.
[11:43] ---
    Aw, he's started already.
[11:47] ---
    There was a problem I just couldn't solve.
[11:51] ---
    The end of the test period
    was fast approaching.
[11:54] ---
    Even then, as young as I
    was, I could not solve it.
[11:59] ---
    But just as my time was about to be up...
[12:12] ---
    Klaus, you passed.
[12:14] ---
    Are you trying to say that one
    mustn't give up, no matter what?
[12:27] ---
    Head Butler!
[12:31] ---
    Mr. Klaus!
[12:35] ---
    Get out!
[12:41] ---
    My rare appearance has me feeling shy.
[12:45] ---
    Deluxe animation! Tama's house!
[12:57] ---
    Sine, cosine, tangent.
[13:00] ---
    The test's probably going to
    cover some of that stuff.
[13:02] ---
    That voice!
[13:04] ---
    Tama! How'd you get in here?!
[13:08] ---
    I thought I'd tell you the
    Hakuou entrance exam trends
[13:11] ---
    and teach you how to deal with them.
[13:15] ---
    I don't want to learn anything from you!
[13:20] ---
    Beat it!
[13:29] ---
    That should do it.
[13:46] ---
    Hayate! Hayate!
[13:49] ---
    It's not morning yet, so you've
    got plenty of time to sleep.
[14:02] SIGN
    Hakuou Academy
[14:10] ---
    Are you okay?
[14:13] ---
    I'm just a little short on sleep.
[14:21] ---
    A streetcar?
[14:23] ---
    The campus is big, after all.
[14:33] ---
    Well, I did everything I could, but...
[14:37] ---
    I wonder what kind of test it's going to be.
[14:40] ---
    Probably pretty normal,
    like English and stuff.
[14:43] ---
    I don't think that study guide will
    help you pass at all, though.

[14:51] ---
    You think Hakuou Academy's
    transfer admission test
[14:53] ---
    would be something so normal?!
[14:57] ---
    Little Nagi?
[15:01] ---
    Good of you to come,
    ex-suspicious individual!
[15:03] ---
    And Little Nagi!
[15:05] ---
    I'm your test administrator for today!
[15:07] ---
    The beautiful world history
    teacher, Yukiji Katsura!
[15:12] ---
    The b-beautiful?
[15:14] ---
    Don't turn that into a question!
[15:17] ---
    You say it's not normal, Miss Katsura?
[15:19] ---
    But I took a normal test to get in.
[15:25] ---
    Keep looking back at the past
[15:26] ---
    and you'll have nothing to gain
    from the future, Little Nagi!
[15:29] ---
    I don't know about the wisdom
    of only looking ahead, either.
[15:32] ---
    At any rate!
[15:33] ---
    We're going to begin the transfer
    admission test, so come with me!
[15:37] ---
    Your assignment is none other than
    a Redmond-style interview exam!
[15:43] ---
    A Redmond-style interview exam refers to...
[15:46] ---
    a test that has been rapidly adopted
    by businesses in recent years,

[15:50] ---
    which uses logic questions to test
    the true intelligence of applicants.

[15:54] ---
    "Why are manhole covers round?"
[15:57] ---
    Such tough brainteasers must
    be answered logically,

[16:00] ---
    and the test is used to judge
    fundamental intelligence

[16:02] ---
    in a way that does not
    rely on memorized facts.

[16:06] ---
    I see. Hakuou Academy's
    prestige isn't for nothing.
[16:09] ---
    Even their transfer admission
    test is a bit different.
[16:11] ---
    By the way, why do you suppose
    manhole covers are round?
[16:15] ---
    Because if it were square, the slightest
    shift would cause it to fall in, right?
[16:21] ---
    Since the diagonal length of a
    square is longer than its sides.
[16:25] ---
    On a circle, it's the same,
    even if it shifts, so...
[16:32] ---
    Ah! You're very smart, Miss!
[16:35] ---
    Of course.
[16:36] ---
    I'm not attending Hakuou
    on a whim or for show.
[16:43] ---
    All right, then we'll begin the test.
[16:47] ---
    It'll be taking place inside the classroom.
[16:49] ---
    The test will begin the moment you enter
[16:52] ---
    and everything you say and do
    will be subject to scoring!
[16:56] ---
    Bear that in mind in
    tackling this challenge!
[17:01] ---
    And now, your first problem...
[17:04] ---
    ...is this!
SIGN    SNAP
[17:15] SIGN
    CRAAAAASH
[17:17] ---
    Are you mocking our Hayate?!
[17:17] SIGN
    Can't show you!
[17:20] ---
    Or are you permitted to do whatever
    you please because you're a teacher?!
[17:24] ---
    Little Nagi, your jabs are harsh.
[17:28] ---
    However, this is the
    prestigious Hakuou Academy!
[17:32] ---
    And this is a Redmond-style interview
    exam to test your true intelligence!
[17:38] ---
    If you want to give the answer that
    just occurred to you, feel free.
[17:42] ---
    But do you really think
    that's the correct answer?
[17:46] ---
    Yes, it's true.
    By the normal way of thinking,

[17:49] ---
    you use a tool to get the banana.
[17:52] ---
    It's an intelligence test for monkeys.
[17:54] ---
    However, in Redmond-style interview exams,
[17:57] ---
    the first answer that occurs
    to you is usually wrong.

[18:00] ---
    In which case...
[18:03] ---
    I have it.
[18:06] ---
    The key to this problem is none other than
[18:08] ---
    the height at which the banana is hung.
[18:12] ---
    The banana is actually at a height
    that you can reach by hand.
[18:17] ---
    So the tools lying around
    are all red herrings.
[18:23] ---
    The correct answer is none other than
[18:25] ---
    "grab it with your hand
    without using any tools"!
[18:27] ---
    This is the correct answer.
[18:38] SIGN
    Growl~
[18:39] ---
    Monkeys enduring hunger,
    unable to cleverly reach the food.
[18:44] ---
    The only food around.
[18:47] ---
    Oh, damn it!
[18:49] ---
    So that was the catch.
[18:51] ---
    I see.
[18:53] ---
    Which means, after everything
    I went through,

[18:55] ---
    it's been a while, but I'm going
    to get all bloody in this episode?

[19:00] ---
    But you know...
[19:03] ---
    If I don't win this fight, I won't...
[19:06] ---
    ...get to go to school!
[19:18] ---
    Here I come!
[19:21] ---
    I didn't imagine he would choose
    to fight instead of fleeing.
[19:24] ---
    More like, this is animal abuse.
[19:29] ---
    But your butler sure is putting up a fight.
[19:32] ---
    Well, he's got a lot riding
    on this test, after all.
[19:35] ---
    I see.
[19:42] ---
    Then, shall we cut the joke
    short and get on with the test?
[19:45] ---
    What?! This was a joke?!
[19:49] ---
    Well, yeah. It'd be easy if you could
    test for intelligence like this.
[19:53] ---
    Then why did you make me do this?!
[19:55] ---
    I sort of wanted to loosen you up
    as thanks for what you did for me.
[20:00] ---
    I don't need this sort of thanks!
[20:03] ---
    Thus, in pretty poor condition,
    both mentally and physically,

[20:08] ---
    Hayate tackled the test.
[20:11] ---
    Calm down!
[20:12] ---
    Just calm down!
[20:19] ---
    How did it go?
[20:20] ---
    Well, I managed to answer all
    the questions somehow, but...
[20:23] ---
    If I don't pass after everything
    you've done for me...
[20:27] ---
    What shall I do, Miss?
[20:30] ---
    What kind of discouraging
    comment is that now?
[20:34] ---
    You're certain to have passed.
[20:37] ---
    I saw the promise in you.
[20:39] ---
    So let's go to school together!
[20:45] ---
    You're right, Miss.
[20:54] ---
    Huh? Madam Superintendent...
[20:56] SIGN
    Superintendent's Office
[20:57] ---
    I'm to deliver this notice
    to the Sanzenin residence?
[21:02] ---
    But Madam Superintendent...
[21:05] SIGN
    Not Accepted
[21:05] ---
    Perhaps this is my imagination,
[21:07] ---
    but I feel like there is
    one word too many here...
[21:11] ---
    Well, he fell short of a
    passing mark by one point.
[21:16] ---
    It's too bad.
[21:18] ---
    I-I see...
[21:21] ---
    If he had taken the test
    in a calmer frame of mind,
[21:23] ---
    maybe he would have passed...
[21:26] ---
    It's really too bad.
[21:29] ---
    So, there you have it.
[21:31] ---
    I will be counting on you
    to do this, Miss Katsura.
[21:37] ---
    In the meantime, at the Sanzenin
    residence, not knowing this...

[21:41] ---
    We're getting ahead of ourselves, but
    shall we celebrate your acceptance?
[21:44] ---
    What?! Really?! I'm so happy!
[21:47] ---
    ...they were already plunging
    into celebration mode.

    I will take from you

    Seou itami ni hibi wa

    Muimi ni sugita
[22:29] ---
    Go by emptily
[22:34] ---
    Oikaketa mama de oikosare-tsuzuke

    Just chasing and continually being overtaken

    Hayate, did you have fun studying
    for the entrance exam?
[23:33] ---
    Yes, it had been a while since I got
    to enjoy feeling like a student.
[23:36] ---
    Thank you very much, Miss.
[23:38] ---
    Thanks is not necessary, Hayate.
[23:39] ---
    We'll be able to go to school
    together every day now.
[23:42] ---
    What?! Well, I suppose so.
[23:44] ---
    This will be good-bye to days of
    all-nighters and internet gaming.
[23:48] ---
    That's not good.
[23:49] ---
    What?!
[23:50] ---
    All right! You're going to skip
    school with me from now on!

    What?!
