    It's time to announce the results of the Hayate the Combat Butler Second Popularity Contest!
[01:53] haya
    Ladies and gentlemen, this week we're doing a special project!
[01:56] nagi
    We're going to announce the results of the poll...
[01:59] nagi
    held in Weekly Shonen Sunday!
[02:04] crowd
    Awesome!
[02:06] saku
    I wonder where we'll place.
[02:09] isu
    My heart's racing!
[02:10] haya
    I can almost hear our viewers asking, "What? When did the first contest take place?"
[02:17] haya
    And, "Why are you doing this now?"
[02:21] nagi
    But please, don't sweat the details for the moment.
[02:24] haya
    Even me and Ojou-sama don't actually know who will take the all-important Number One spot that everyone's dying to know.
[02:30] nagi
    Did your favorite character make the list?

[03:21] narr
    In fifth, with 1008 votes: the Mystery Girl...
[03:24] narr
    Rank 5 the Mystery Girl 1008 votes
[03:25] narr
    ... who unfortunately, the Mystery Girl had other commitments and couldn't be here with us today.
[03:29] saku
    Who the hell's this Mystery Girl?!
[03:31] ayu
    Why are we only seeing her back?
[03:34] haya

[03:42] narr
    At Number Four, with 1366 votes: Hayate Ayasaki!
[03:46] narr
    Rank 4 Hayate Ayasaki 1366 votes
[03:48] nagi
    Fourth, huh? I wanted us to be first and second, Hayate.
[03:54] haya
    I'm sorry, Ojou-sama...
[03:56] nagi
    Never mind. Just try harder next time.
[03:59] narr
    In third place, with 1776 votes: Nagi Sanzenin!
[04:03] narr
    Rank 3 Nagi Sanzenin 1776 votes
[04:05] nagi
    Wait, what?!
[04:08] nagi
    But I'm the heroine... and I'm only third?
[04:13] haya
    Congratulations, Ojou-sama! You're so amazing making it into the top three!
[04:19] narr
    As both of the presenters appear to be shaken by the news, I'll just go ahead and announce the second-placed person.
[04:26] narr
    In second place, with 1814 votes: Maria!
[04:31] narr
    Rank 2 Maria 1814 votes
[04:33] mari
    Oh really?
[04:34] nagi
    M-Maria?!
[04:36] narr
    And the all-important first place goes to:
[04:42] narr
    Hinagiku Katsura with 4185 votes!
[04:45] narr
    Rank 1 Hinagiku Katsura 4185 votes
[04:49] hina
    Um, thank you very much.
[04:51] nagi
    Four... Four-thousand votes?!
[04:57] haya
    Ojou-sama, snap out of it!
[04:59] haya
    Ojou-sama! Are you all right?
[04:59] nagi
    This is ridiculous.
[05:03] narr
    And with that, the Second Popularity Contest comes to a close!
[05:08] crowd
    All right! Woo!
[05:24] nagi
    Oh, it was all just a dream.
[05:28] nagi
    Of course it was. There's no way I'd lose to Maria and Hinagiku.
[05:35] narr
    Unfortunately for Nagi, the rankings were a hundred percent accurate.
[05:41] nagi
    Oh well, back to sleep.
[05:45] narr
    And with that, our special project is over.
[05:48] narr
    So, without further ado, the main storyline you've all been waiting for!
SIGN    The Saginomiya Clan
[06:06] saku
    Well, hot damn! Looks like you finally finished it after all that.
[06:09] isu
    I'm sorry. I didn't think it'd cause me so many problems.
[06:13] isu
    Are you all right?
[06:15] saku
    Everybody has an off day.
[06:18] saku
    So, what was that thing?
[06:21] isu
    It was a dream monster.
[06:23] isu
    It's a horrifying monster that entices sleeping people into its own dream so it can devour them.
[06:29] saku
    Into its own dream, you say?
[06:32] isu
    And if you get sucked in, you have this nightmare about finishing in third in Hayate the Combat Butler's...
[06:39] isu
    Second Popularity Contest.
[06:42] saku
    That's quite a specific nightmare.
[06:45] saku
    Anyway, let's head home. I don't want to hang around here forever.
[06:49] isu
    Me neither. Let's go home.
[06:57] saku
    Jeepers! It's still alive!
[06:59] isu
    Leave it to me, I'll...
[07:11] isu
    Wait!
[07:15] saku
    Um... so when you say "leave it to you", what are you going to do exactly?
[07:21] mari
    Please take this to Isumi-san.
[07:25] haya
    Gotcha. I'll go right away.
[07:30] nagi
    Apparently, Isumi's not feeling well, so take that to her and try and cheer her up.
[07:36] nagi
    She told me I didn't need to go visit her.
[07:39] haya
    All right. But you know, Ojou-sama...
[07:45] haya
    A girl shouldn't be playing games in such an improper manner.
[07:51] nagi
    You idiot! I got it already, so get going!
[07:54] haya
    Okay, I'll be off then.
[07:59] haya
    Still, Isumi-san's house is pretty huge.
[08:04] haya
    I wonder how many acres it covers...
[08:27] hat
    Which button do I have to press on the intercom again?
[08:32] haya
    There's only one button...
[08:36] haya
    It's this one.
[08:37] haya
    When you press this button, someone from inside will come to the door.
[08:41] hat
    What?
[08:45] hat
    Unfortunately, that's a lie.
[08:48] haya
    What? But why?
[08:50] hat
    Because someone has already come out of the house.
[08:56] haya
    What?
[08:56] isu
    Mother Hatsuho!
[08:58] isu
    I was just thinking that you were late getting back.
[09:03] isu
    Did you get lost again?
[09:06] hat
    Oh, Isumi-chan, I'm home.
[09:09] haya
    Huh? Isumi-san, did you call her your mother?
[09:12] hat
    See? I told you. Because I'm outside, someone from the house is already outside.
[09:20] hat
    Elementary, my dear Watson.
[09:23] isu
    That's enough Conan-kun impersonations for one day. Come inside already.
[09:30] isu
    Hayate-sama, you too.
[09:31] haya
    Ah, yes.
[09:34] kuj
    Oh, so this is the Sanzenin's new butler?
[09:39] kuj
    My, my, you look just like Hatsuho.
[09:42] isu
    Grandmother, that is Hatsuho.
[09:46] hat
    I never knew that I was the Sanzenin's new butler.
[09:51] kuj
    What are you talking about? Of course you're not a sheep!
[09:57] isu
    I'm sorry, Hayate-sama. Everyone in my family is... a little slow.
[10:03] ---
    Come on...
[10:05] haya
    That reminds me...
[10:09] haya
    Why does Isumi-san go out alone when she knows she'll just get lost all the time?
[10:14] nagi
    That's easy.
[10:15] nagi
    She thinks she's got it together.
[10:19] haya
    That's what Ojou-sama said, but...
[10:22] kuj
    Oh dear, the butler disappeared.
[10:25] hat
    And he looked just like me until a moment ago.
[10:28] isu
    You two, get it together, will you?!
[10:32] haya
    I see! It'd make sense if she thinks she's got it together if this is what her family is like.
[10:40] isu
    Hayate-sama, I'm apologize for my family...
[10:44] haya
    Oh, don't sweat it.
[10:46] haya
    Oh, that reminds me... Ojou-sama told me you're not feeling well, Isumi-san,
[10:52] haya
    but you look pretty healthy.
[10:53] isu
    Yeah, I'm fine physically, but...
[11:03] isu
    A-As you can see, my p-powers...
[11:09] isu
    For crying out loud!
[11:12] isu
    Hold it, you!
[11:14] haya
    I see. So, things like this can happen too.
[11:17] hat
    Because she's still young, her powers are somewhat unstable.
[11:21] hat
    Having said that, her powers are many times stronger than mine or her grandmother's...
[11:25] haya
    But how can we fix this?
[11:29] hat
    That's actually quite difficult.
[11:31] hat
    According to my divination, it would require a sixteen-year-old boy...
[11:37] hat
    who's strong and manly, but still looks pretty feminine,
[11:44] hat
    who's a butler who has been cursed since birth with wretched luck,
SIGN    Hate
[11:48] hat**
    and whose name starts with Ha.
[11:51] hat
    We need to take the lifeblood from a boy matching that description when he's cornered and pushed to his limits.
[11:57] haya
    I see.
[11:58] hat
    If only such a boy existed, we could fix this,
[12:01] hat
    but there's no way something as convenient as that could...
[12:04] haya
    What should I do? Isumi-san is Ojou-sama's best friend.
[12:08] haya
    I guess it's my duty as a butler to offer myself...
[12:11] haya
    But what was that bit about being cornered and pushed to my limits?
[12:14] haya
    That sounds pretty dangerous...
[12:21] isu
    Wait!
[12:23] haya
    However...
[12:24] haya
    Still...
[12:26] haya
    Isumi-san...
[12:26] isu
    You can't do that!
[12:29] isu
    This is born from a lack of skill on my part.
[12:33] isu
    I also know why my powers are unstable.
[12:35] isu
    That's why I'd never do anything that would put you in danger.
[12:40] haya
    But, Isumi-san...
[12:43] haya
    What should we do about that thing?
[12:51] haya
    Isumi-san!
[12:53] isu
    Hayate-sama!
[12:56] haya
    Isumi-san!
[13:00] isu
    When I can't use my powers, it's so...
[13:04] haya
    Can't you do anything?
[13:06] hat
    Even though we have weapons, we're just too...
[13:11] haya
    Then, I'll take it on.
[13:20] haya
    That's what I said, but how can I deal with something like this?
[13:24] bee
    Fret not!
[13:25] bee
    That monster controls dreams, so its only power is the power of illusions.
[13:29] bee
    Therefore, if you squint, you'll see its true form!
[13:32] haya
    Who said that?
[13:33] haya
    If I squint?
[13:46] narr
    He saw its true form.
[13:48] haya
    Finishing Move: Controller Slash!
[14:00] haya
    Isumi-san, are you hurt?
[14:03] isu
    Hayate-sama...
[14:09] isu
    Thank you very much, Hayate-sama.
[14:12] haya
    Oh, it was nothing.
[14:14] haya
    But, are you sure it's okay?
[14:16] haya
    I'm kinda used to being cornered and pushed to my limits.
[14:21] isu
    I'll try to sort out my problems myself.
[14:26] haya
    Well, please let me know if there's anything I can do for you.
[14:29] isu
    Yes, thank you very much.
[14:31] haya
    I'll be off then.
[14:34] gin
    Why don't we accept your help then?
[14:40] narr
    We're going to segue into the second half with this foreboding atmosphere...
[14:56] haya
    I bet things are pretty tough for Isumi-san if she can't use her powers.
[15:00] haya
    I want to help her somehow, but...
[15:04] haya
    Lifeblood from when I've been cornered and pushed to my limits...
[15:09] haya
    What does that mean anyway?
[15:25] sign
    If you don't take them in, they'll all die.
[15:26] haya
    What's with the aggressive sign?!
[15:29] haya
    I-Impossible.
[15:30] haya
    Just Shiranui alone is trouble enough as it is, there's no way we could handle this many animals!
[15:35] haya
    Do I pretend I never saw them? But it says they'll die if I don't take them in.
[15:41] haya
    What should I do?
[15:47] gin
    Curses, I missed.
[15:50] gin
    Too bad, huh? We were so close.
[15:53] gin
    Let's go everyone.
[15:57] haya
    What just happened?
[16:01] mari
    Hayate-kun?
[16:03] haya
    Oh, Maria-san.
[16:04] mari
    Are you just coming back from Isumi-san's?
[16:08] haya
    Yes. What about you?
[16:10] mari
    I was just going to do a bit of shopping, but it's weird.
[16:16] mari
    I wasn't planning on coming this way, but then I found myself here.
[16:21] haya
    Hm, I guess you must just be tired. I'll do the shopping for you.
[16:28] mari
    Oh, really? Then, let's walk together until we get there.
[16:31] ---
    Sure.
[16:37] haya
    Maria-san, is something wrong?
[16:39] mari
    Hayate-kun? Don't you think that's a little too bold?
[16:44] mari
    In broad daylight... in the middle of the street...
[16:49] haya
    Huh? What do you mean?
[16:52] mari
    I mean... you know, suddenly touching my b-behind...
[16:57] haya
    What? No! I didn't touch you at all!
[17:04] mari
    But I'm sure I just felt a hand...
[17:08] haya
    Oh no! This is really bad! I have to do something!
[17:12] haya
    I-I'm telling you that...
[17:17] gin
    Curses, missed again! Looks like I've got no choice!
[17:22] gin
    Let's go to Plan B.
[17:25] haya
    Um, Maria-san, are you all right? But I'm sure now you know it wasn't me who...
[17:31] mari
    Yes, I get it already. Go and do something about that pervert!
[17:35] haya
    Y-Yes!
[17:37] isu
    Mother.
[17:39] hat
    What is it, Isumi-chan?
[17:40] isu
    I can't seem to find great-grandmother Ginka.
[17:45] hat
    Great-grandmother went out a little while ago.
[17:48] hat
    She said she was going to try and get your powers back for you...
[17:54] isu
    Get my powers back?
[17:57] isu
    What? But that means...
[18:01] hat
    I think she might be considering killing Ayasaki-kun softly or something.
[18:06] isu
    I'm going out for a bit!
[18:09] hat
    Good luck.
[18:13] haya
    Wait!
[18:16] haya
    Wait!
[18:17] gin
    Oh, he's chasing me.
[18:26] gin
    Then, this'll be easy.
[18:29] gin
    This is for you.
[18:32] gin
    Not!
[18:34] haya
    Whoa! How could you do that?!
[18:40] haya
    Wait, this is play money.
[18:46] haya
    That same old trick won't work on me again!
[18:52] gin
    This guy's annoying!
[18:57] gin
    How about this!
[19:04] gin
    Take this!
[19:17] gin
    I've got you now!
[19:19] haya
    Oh no you don't!
[19:28] haya
    What's your problem?!
[19:30] haya
    Who are you anyway?!
[19:34] haya
    A child?
[19:36] gin
    You kicked me in my face...
[19:39] gin
    You just kicked my face!
[19:40] gin
    When all I wanted to do was kill you.
[19:43] haya
    Wait, wait. When your life's on the line, kicking someone is-
[19:47] gin
    You're horrible! You're so mean! This has nothing to do with Isumi anymore.
[19:53] gin
    Someone as mean as you should...
[19:56] gin
    be crushed!
[20:19] gin
    It just had to happen now, didn't it?
[20:22] haya
    Um, are you all right?
[20:36] haya
    Seriously, are you all right?
[20:38] gin
    I'm not all right at all, so give me some blood, sonny.
[20:43] haya
    Huh?
[20:44] isu
    My great-grandmother keeps her youthful looks by sucking blood out of people who are at their limit.
[20:50] isu
    Don't worry about it. This is what she usually looks like.
[20:54] haya
    Isumi-san.
[20:55] isu
    Hayate-sama, I'm sorry for all the trouble we've caused.
[20:59] isu
    Let's go home, Great-grandmother.
[21:02] gin
    But his blood...
[21:05] haya
    Will she go back to normal if she takes some of my blood?
[21:09] isu
    Yes. But even if she did it for me, she brought this on herself, so please forget about it.
[21:17] haya
    I did kick her in the face though, so I don't mind giving her some of my blood.
[21:23] isu
    But...
[21:24] gin
    R-Really?!
[21:25] haya
    Yes. After all, you were trying so hard for Isumi-san.
[21:30] isu
    B-But...
[21:32] haya
    Oh, but it needs to be the blood of someone pushed to their limits. What should we do?
[21:37] gin
    That's not a problem. I'll just suck your blood till you reach your limit.
[21:47] isu
    A-Are you all right?
[21:51] isu
    Hayate-sama?
[21:53] isu
    Hayate-sama?
[21:54] haya
    With my consciousness fading, all I can hear is Isumi-san's voice.
[21:58] isu
    Hayate-sama!
[22:11] haya
    I'm home.
[22:13] nagi
    You took your time. How was Isumi?
[22:22] nagi
    Hayate, you look worn out somehow.
[22:25] haya
    Yeah, I donated some blood today...
[22:28] narr
    Make sure you don't donate too much blood, kids.
[24:06] hat
    Let's go on our trip to Izu! It's already been a year since our last one.
[24:10] isu
    Mother, the trip to the Shimoda hot springs is next week.
[24:13] gin
    Shimoda... Tasty, huh? Shimoda-san.
[24:19] isu
    Grandmother, I'm Isumi.
[24:23] isu
    The next episode of Hayate the Combat Butler is entitled The Steamy Tension of the Shimoda Hot Springs Trip.
[24:28] hat
    Soon, it'll be the perfect season for the Izu hot springs.
