**[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.
**[00:15] ---**
All right, I'm going to do my best!
**[00:17] ---**
Okay, I keep this up and I
can finish this large pizza!
**[00:21] ---**
Wait, that's not it!
**[00:22] ---**
I have to get recharged and
prepare for tomorrow's exam!
**[00:32] ---**
**Hayate, I wonder what you're eating tonight.**
**[00:37] ---**
**To the butler-in-debt, it was a wish
that was never to come true again.**
**[00:53] SIGN**
Student ID
**[00:56] ---**
It wasn't a dream.
**[00:57] ---**
I can go to school again.
**[01:02] ---**
And I owe it all to Maria
for recommending me.
**[01:06] ---**
M-Maria?
**[01:09] ---**
So...
**[01:12] ---**
Please go here and study hard.
***SIGN*** Student ID
**[01:17] ---**
What?!
**[01:18] ---**
Th-This is from Hakuou Academy...
**[01:21] ---**
My student ID?!
**[01:23] ---**
**Please watch me, Maria!**
**[01:25] ---**
**I will also strive to live up to
your expectations, without fail!**
**[01:28] ---**
All right!
**[01:30] ---**
I'm going to attend Hakuou Academy
and become a first-rate butler!
**[01:33] ---**
**No, no. Even if you go to school,**
**[01:35] ---**
**it's not like that'll turn you
into a first-rate butler.**
**[01:39] ---**
**A butler is one who serves.**
**[01:42] ---**
**A butler is one who waits upon others.**
**[01:45] ---**
**A butler is a formal guardian,**
**[01:49] ---**
**who is there to support his mistress
in all aspects of her life.**
**[01:52] ---**
**Yes!**
**[01:53] ---**
**This is about a boy who fights and puts
his life on the line for a girl...**
**[01:58] ---**
**A super combat battle story!**
**[02:02] ---**
I shall patiently teach you what
it is to be a first-rate butler.
**[02:08] ---**
Daichi ni kaketa bokura no yukue
**[02:08] ---**
Our destination that we've
staked upon this earth
**[02:15] ---**
Tsuki-nukeru hayate no gotoku
**[02:15] ---**
Like the sudden gale that cuts across
**[02:21] ---**
Unmei ni makete
**[02:21] ---**
Giving in to fate
**[02:24] ---**
Shagami-komu nante tsumannai yo
**[02:24] ---**
And hunkering down is no fun
**[02:29] ---**
Sore ja kakko warui yo!
**[02:29] ---**
That's just not cool!
**[02:34] ---**
Uso kara deta makoto
**[02:34] ---**
Many a true word is spoken in jest
**[02:37] ---**
Koukai wa kitto mi kara deta sabi
**[02:37] ---**
Regret is probably reaping what you sowed
**[02:42] ---**
Zettai, nase ba naru!
**[02:42] ---**
Where there's a will,
there's definitely a way!
**[02:46] ---**
Ooki na hamon ni nomi-komareteku
**[02:46] ---**
As a great rippling wave swallows us up
**[02:52] ---**
Karada nami ni makasereba
**[02:52] ---**
Just let it take you
**[02:59] ---**
Kanchigai no yume
**[02:59] ---**
Dreams that are misguided
**[03:02] ---**
Mato-hazure no kitai
**[03:02] ---**
Hopes that are way off base
**[03:05] ---**
Tsuyoku omoeba itsuka tsukameru sa!
**[03:05] ---**
You'll grab them someday,
if you just have conviction
**[03:11] ---**
Daichi keri-age hashiri-dasou
**[03:11] ---**
Let's kick up the earth and start running
**[03:18] ---**
Kimama ni mau kaze no gotoku
**[03:18] ---**
Like the capricious breeze that dances about
**[03:36] SIGN**
Samurai, the Way of the Warrior, Van Damme in Action
**[03:45] ---**
You seem awfully happy, Hayate.
**[03:47] ---**
Whoa! I didn't know you
stayed the night, Hinagiku!
**[03:49] ---**
G-Good morning.
**[03:51] ---**
Morning.
**[03:52] ---**
But what's the matter?
You seem to be in an awfully foul mood...
**[03:56] ---**
You have to ask?!
**[03:58] ---**
Really! You suddenly disappeared
like that yesterday evening,
**[04:01] ---**
you showed no signs of coming
back late into the night,
**[04:04] ---**
and you were absolutely nowhere to be found.
**[04:06] ---**
And after all that, you don't think
you caused anyone to worry?!
**[04:10] ---**
I'm sorry! I'm sorry!
I'm really sorry! I really am sorry!
**[04:13] ---**
So, judging by your behavior,
you got accepted?
**[04:16] ---**
Oh, yes, thank you.
**[04:21] ---**
Then I'll forgive you for the time being.
**[04:23] ---**
I'm going home now,
**[04:25] ---**
but be sure to say hello
if you see me at school.
**[04:27] ---**
What? Oh, all right. Roger that.
**[04:29] ---**
Good.
**[04:37] ---**
We'll be students at the same school...
**[04:45] ---**
So, you've been holding your
student ID since last night?
**[04:50] ---**
Yes! I slept with it in
my hands all night long!
**[04:52] ---**
I swear! How adorable can you get?!
**[04:55] ---**
I guess it made you really happy.
**[04:58] ---**
Yes!
**[04:59] ---**
You know those people who
burst into song in musicals?
**[05:02] ---**
I think I know what that
urge feels like now!
**[05:05] ---**
You don't need to get how that feels!
**[05:07] ---**
There aren't any character songs
for a scene like this anyway.
**[05:10] ---**
Or rather, a musical anime would
be tough production-wise.
**[05:14] ---**
Right...
**[05:15] ---**
Oh, that reminds me, what
should I do about a uniform?
**[05:18] ---**
Uniform?
**[05:19] ---**
Yes. Hakuou's students wear uniforms, right?
**[05:22] ---**
Staying in my butler uniform would be...
**[05:23] ---**
You shouldn't need one.
**[05:25] ---**
What?
**[05:25] ---**
Indeed. And it will be easier to
tell you apart that way, too.
**[05:28] ---**
Don't worry. There are other
butlers at the school, too.
**[05:33] ---**
Besides, the others will respect
you more in your butler uniform.
**[05:37] ---**
What?
**[05:38] ---**
But the bigger question is whether
we'll be in the same class or not.
**[05:42] ---**
What?!
**[05:42] ---**
Indeed.
**[05:44] ---**
What are you saying? I'll be in high school.
**[05:47] ---**
You're still 13 years old,
so you're in middle school.
**[05:50] ---**
Oh, right, you don't know, do you?
**[05:52] ---**
Huh? Know what?
**[05:54] ---**
I've skipped grades, so I'm in high school.
**[06:00] ---**
What?! You're in high school?!
**[06:03] ---**
Don't be so surprised.
**[06:04] ---**
That's... But, it's like that
4-panel comic series...
**[06:07] ---**
Ah-ah! Don't say any more than that!
**[06:09] ---**
But how is it possible? You're so little!
**[06:11] ---**
Don't call me little!
**[06:13] ---**
B-But... really?
**[06:15] ---**
Darn it! You're one skeptical bastard!
**[06:17] ---**
Fine, take a look at this!
**[06:19] ---**
Ta-da!
**[06:19] ---**
Student ID
**[06:21] ---**
Th-This is...!
**[06:24] ---**
You look so grumpy in the photo.
**[06:26] ---**
That's not the jab you should be making!
**[06:29] ---**
Wow! That really *is* a high school ID!
**[06:33] ---**
I told you so from the start, didn't I?!
**[06:37] ---**
Hakuou has butlers, people
who've skipped grades,
**[06:40] ---**
and all kinds of other
students, so it's quite fun.
**[06:43] ---**
Wow, I had no idea.
**[06:45] ---**
Wait, I had to work hard
to make you believe me,
**[06:49] ---**
but I guess you implicitly
believe what Maria says.
**[06:51] ---**
Oh, no, I didn't really mean it like that.
**[06:53] ---**
Honestly! Taking me for a fool!
**[06:55] ---**
I may not look it, but my grades are...
**[06:59] ---**
In that case, I hope we
end up in the same class.
**[07:05] ---**
Y-Yeah...
**[07:07] ---**
Oh, I can't wait for it to be Monday!
**[07:10] ---**
**And so, to accommodate length issues,**
**[07:13] ---**
**maybe we'll just skip forward
all the way to Monday morning.**
**[07:20] ---**
Wow...
**[07:29] ---**
See that? There's nothing here when
you come this early in the morning.
**[07:33] ---**
We're not doing this again after today.
**[07:37] ---**
That's my school.
**[07:39] ---**
I know that already.
**[07:40] ---**
Oh, do you? Had you already found out?
**[07:44] ---**
Are you okay?
**[07:46] ---**
Well, it's fine if you're just happy.
**[07:48] ---**
But you certainly are amazing. Skipping
grades to be in high school.
**[07:53] ---**
It's not especially amazing.
**[07:55] ---**
I'm not the only one who's skipped grades.
**[07:57] ---**
A couple students to it every year.
**[07:58] ---**
What?
**[07:59] ---**
Besides, the record holder for
skipping grades at this school
**[08:03] ---**
enrolled at age 10 and graduated at age 13.
**[08:06] ---**
What?!
**[08:07] ---**
On top of that, she served as student
body president two terms in a row
**[08:10] ---**
and her grades were at the top of her
class for all 3 years by a wide margin.
**[08:13] ---**
A formidable student with 3 of the silver
watches awarded to the top achiever.
**[08:17] ---**
I see. I guess behemoths like
that really exist in this world.
**[08:21] ---**
There *is* a behemoth like
that, really close to you.
**[08:28] ---**
Oh, dear, have I caught a cold?
**[08:31] ---**
Anyway, students who skip
grades or transfer in
**[08:33] ---**
or have their tuition waived
as scholarship students...
**[08:36] ---**
They have a duty to contribute to
the school's record, reputation,
**[08:40] ---**
and rate of college enrollment.
**[08:41] ---**
If students like that get bad grades,
**[08:44] ---**
they inevitably face flunking or
other harsh punishments sometimes.
**[08:48] ---**
Th-They do?!
**[08:51] ---**
**Come to think of it,**
**[08:52] ---**
**the student council people
said something similar, too.**
**[08:56] ---**
**I was in high spirits,
just by getting accepted,**
**[08:58] ---**
**but this is still a prestigious school.**
**[09:01] ---**
**I transferred in with borderline grades.
Will I really be able to cut it?**
**[09:05] ---**
But knowing you, you'll be fine.
**[09:07] ---**
You're capable of anything, after all.
**[09:10] ---**
What's wrong, Hayate?
**[09:15] ---**
In battle, you must always be
reading two or three moves ahead.
**[09:19] ---**
By Char Aznable.
**[09:22] ---**
Waking up early can certainly pay off.
You get to meet interesting people.
**[09:28] ---**
Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!
**[09:30] ---**
If I make the jab that he's the most
interesting person here, would I lose?
**[09:30] ---**
*Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!*
**[09:34] ---**
Probably.
**[09:35] ---**
Or rather, was there a point to the
saying that he quoted earlier?
**[09:39] ---**
Himuro, is that enough with the flowers?
**[09:41] ---**
Thank you, Little Master Taiga.
**[09:43] ---**
Himuro thanked me!
**[09:45] ---**
Um...
**[09:46] ---**
That outfit... You're a butler as well?
**[09:48] ---**
Uh, yes, I'm a butler of the
Sanzenin household. My name is...
**[09:51] ---**
Sanzenin?
**[09:52] ---**
Oh, so you're the one...
**[09:55] ---**
Which means...
**[09:56] ---**
**Wow, he's really pretty.**
**[10:01] ---**
Hey, what are you trying to do to Hayate?!
**[10:03] ---**
Yes, that's right.
**[10:04] ---**
As I recall, if someone can make
this young lady apologize in tears,
**[10:08] ---**
that person gets to inherit the
Sanzenin family fortune...
**[10:13] ---**
I won't let you lay a hand on the Miss!
**[10:15] ---**
I will protect her!
**[10:16] ---**
Hayate!
**[10:18] ---**
Well, to be honest, I have my source
of funds called Little Master Taiga,
**[10:22] ---**
so I'm not really interested.
**[10:24] ---**
Source of funds?!
**[10:27] ---**
It's going to be stolen from you
if you're not paying attention.
**[10:30] ---**
Huh?
**[10:32] ---**
W-Wait, that's my string tie!
How did you do that?!
**[10:36] ---**
A foolish question.
**[10:38] ---**
It's obvious, isn't it?
**[10:41] ---**
It's because I'm a first-rate butler.
**[10:44] ---**
A first-rate... butler...?
**[10:46] ---**
People don't wear butler uniforms
at this school just for show.
**[10:51] ---**
We shall be on our way now, Little Master.
**[10:52] ---**
Oh, okay!
**[10:56] ---**
**Incredible!**
**[10:57] ---**
**So that's the pinnacle of what I
want to be, a first-rate butler!**
**[11:00] ---**
**Well, not that I understand how
that's related to being a butler...**
**[11:05] ---**
Butlers are incredible, aren't they, Miss?!
**[11:08] ---**
I don't really care, but you
never got your string tie back.
**[11:12] ---**
Oh, shoot!
**[11:13] ---**
Wait, he's gone already!
**[11:19] ---**
**So this is... This is what it
is to be a first-rate butler!**
**[11:22] ---**
No, that was out-and-out theft.
**[11:24] ---**
Or rather, don't force me to take
jabs at your monologues, too.
**[11:29] ---**
Suke, Kaku, teach them a lesson.
**[11:34] ---**
I'll make coffee for you any time.
**[11:37] ---**
I'm so sorry, Maria.
**[11:39] ---**
Honestly! What did you go to school for?
**[11:44] ---**
There.
**[11:46] ---**
This time, please go to school properly
without losing your string tie.
**[11:50] ---**
O-Of course! You can count on me!
**[11:53] ---**
Are you sure about that?
**[11:54] ---**
I can't breathe! I can't breathe, Maria!
**[11:57] ---**
Hey, we're going to be late!
**[11:59] ---**
I wouldn't mind it one bit if
you decide not to go, you know!
**[12:02] ---**
Oh, I'm going! I'm going!
**[12:03] ---**
Then I'll see you two later.
**[12:05] ---**
Yes, we'll be going then!
**[12:07] ---**
Come, Miss!
**[12:08] ---**
Hey, you stupid! Quit it!
**[12:09] ---**
This is embarrassing!
**[12:16] ---**
Quiet down!
**[12:18] ---**
Starting today, we're going to have
a new friend joining our class!
**[12:22] ---**
Is it a transfer student, Katsy?
**[12:24] ---**
Is it a boy? Or a girl?
**[12:26] ---**
It's a boy, more or less.
**[12:27] ---**
What do you mean, "more or less"?
**[12:30] ---**
Me! Katsy, is this boy a cool guy?
**[12:33] ---**
What? You want to know if he's cool?
**[12:35] ---**
I-It makes me nervous if they're
going to talk about stuff like that.
**[12:39] ---**
**I bet Ayasaki's nervous.**
**[12:42] ---**
**All right! I'll take this chance**
**[12:44] ---**
**to soften up the crowd for him,
and to make up for earlier.**
**[12:48] ---**
The transfer student is *really* cute!
**[12:51] ---**
What?!
**[12:52] ---**
He's kind of like
**[12:53] ---**
if you boil down Kimutaku and
Tackey's DNA with Joe Odagiri
**[12:56] ---**
and add Orly and Brad Pitt to the mix!
**[12:59] ---**
Just hearing his voice
will make you feel faint!
**[13:01] ---**
The sound effect for a sidelong
glance from him is like "BAM"!
**[13:04] ---**
And he's sort of like Golgo for girls.
**[13:07] ---**
Not to mention, he's a butler
for the Sanzenin family!
**[13:09] ---**
He's practically a genius
**[13:11] ---**
and his athletic abilities
are incredible, too!
**[13:13] ---**
Huh? A butler for the Sanzenin family?
**[13:16] ---**
And so...!
**[13:18] ---**
Transfer student, please come on in!
**[13:23] ---**
Uh, hello.
**[13:28] ---**
Is that Hayata?
**[13:30] ---**
Wait, I thought he didn't pass
the transfer admission test.
**[13:34] ---**
Well, a lot happened...
**[13:37] ---**
**Oh, their focus on me hurts...**
**[13:40] ---**
**Aww. So the cool transfer
student was Hayata.**
**[13:45] ---**
**Well, it's true that he's
not exactly ugly, but...**
**[13:49] ---**
**We're talking about some awfully
poor-looking Orlys and Brad Pitts.**
**[13:53] ---**
Okay, Ayasaki, come introduce yourself.
**[13:56] ---**
What?!
**[13:59] ---**
**I-It's easy for you to give
me this satisfied look,**
**[14:02] ---**
**as if to say, "I warmed
up the crowd for you!"...**
**[14:09] ---**
So this is adversity!
**[14:11] ---**
This classroom is so cold, like it
got hit with the Crackle spell,
**[14:13] ---**
and to think I have to introduce myself!
**[14:15] ---**
It can't be helped.
**[14:16] ---**
I can't very well bring shame to the Miss.
**[14:20] ---**
**The boy named Hayate Ayasaki has worked
among adults from a tender age.**
**[14:25] ---**
**And so...**
**[14:29] ---**
Nice to meet you.
**[14:31] ---**
**This kind of sales-pitch smile
is one of his greatest fortes.**
**[14:37] ---**
As Miss Katsura just mentioned in her
introduction, I am Hayate Ayasaki.
**[14:43] ---**
As a butler of the Sanzenin household,
**[14:45] ---**
I have the honor of serving Miss
Nagi, who is also in this class.
**[14:50] ---**
Miss Katsura's earlier introduction
was a little exaggerated
**[14:53] ---**
and I myself am not a
particularly astute student,
**[14:58] ---**
but I hope that I can have fun
learning alongside all of you.
**[15:04] ---**
So, I look forward to
getting to know everyone.
**[15:18] ---**
There, I've repaid my debt!
**[15:23] ---**
Ah, but school really is such fun, isn't it?
**[15:27] ---**
What? You think so?
**[15:29] ---**
Aren't you having fun, Miss?
**[15:32] ---**
There are a lot of people here.
**[15:34] ---**
I want to live as quietly and
inconspicuously as possible,
**[15:37] ---**
and spend the majority of
my days on manga and games.
**[15:41] ---**
That's called a useless member of society.
**[15:43] ---**
The reason I skipped grades
**[15:45] ---**
was also because I didn't want to
go to school for 12 whole years.
**[15:48] ---**
Th-That's really hardcore.
**[15:51] ---**
But *I* am happy that I get to go
to school like this with you.
**[15:55] ---**
What?
**[15:56] ---**
I suppose I have Maria to
thank for that as well.
**[16:01] ---**
And I have you to thank, too.
**[16:06] ---**
If you hadn't laid the groundwork for this,
**[16:10] ---**
I would not be here today.
**[16:15] ---**
Thank you very much, Miss.
**[16:19] ---**
No, uh, right...
**[16:22] ---**
Getting to be with you, I also...
**[16:25] ---**
You still like the unpopular spots,
the same as ever, don't you?
**[16:28] ---**
H-Hinagiku, you...!
**[16:30] ---**
Oh, Hinagiku, hello.
**[16:31] ---**
Hello.
**[16:32] ---**
But what are you doing out here?
**[16:36] ---**
A little something came up, so I
thought I'd drop by the clubroom.
**[16:38] ---**
This is a shortcut.
**[16:40] ---**
Wow, you're the student body president,
**[16:42] ---**
and you still participate in
extracurricular activities!
**[16:44] ---**
What's the use if you
can't juggle that much?
**[16:47] ---**
Come to think of it,
**[16:48] ---**
don't you participate in any
extracurricular activities, Miss?
**[16:50] ---**
Huh? Why?
**[16:52] ---**
Well, I do believe the best
part of going to school
**[16:54] ---**
is participating in extracurricular
activities with your friends.
**[16:57] ---**
Y-You fool! I have no need
for such things anymore!
**[17:01] ---**
Oh, but you're still a
registered member, you know.
**[17:04] ---**
Hinagiku!
**[17:05] ---**
Um, what registered member?
**[17:07] ---**
She's in the same club as I am.
**[17:09] ---**
Y-You fool! Th-That was just
a one-day trial membership!
**[17:13] ---**
You treated it as a darned
application without my permission!
**[17:15] ---**
So, what club?
**[17:17] ---**
The kendo team.
**[17:19] ---**
The kendo team?!
**[17:22] ---**
When I started high school,
**[17:24] ---**
there was a time when I thought
that the acute societal withdrawal
**[17:27] ---**
might be problematic if it continued...
**[17:29] SIGN**
Kendo Team
**[17:32] ---**
So, based on what I saw during the
new student recruitment activities,
**[17:35] ---**
I thought about getting
into some kind of sport.
**[17:44] ---**
**Because she was really cool.**
**[17:47] ---**
But why did she quit?
**[17:49] ---**
Beats me. Ask her.
**[17:51] ---**
Well, because...
**[17:53] ---**
Both the protective gear and
the bamboo sword were heavy
**[17:55] ---**
and I couldn't move very well.
**[17:56] ---**
That's why you should use
the children's sizes
**[17:58] ---**
instead of the same equipment as me.
**[18:00] ---**
Like hell I'm using children's equipment!
**[18:02] ---**
But you quit just because of that?
**[18:05] ---**
Yes, I quit just because of that.
**[18:08] ---**
**Because I knew right away.**
**[18:11] ---**
**That even if I practiced the same sport,**
**[18:13] ---**
**it was unlikely that I'd ever be like her.**
**[18:20] ---**
**So there was a time when the Miss
tried a sport on her own initiative.**
**[18:26] ---**
**But if I leave the Miss to her own devices,**
**[18:28] ---**
**she's going to end up a deadbeat
slacker or an internet game addict.**
**[18:32] ---**
I'm thinking finding employment
might mean an admission of defeat.
**[18:37] ---**
All right, Miss!
**[18:39] ---**
How about you come take a peek at the
kendo team with me after school?!
**[18:42] ---**
Huh?
**[18:51] ---**
Wow, so this is the kendo team.
**[18:54] ---**
Of course. Like hell this could be
the manga club or the anime club.
**[18:58] SIGN**
Be pure, righteous, and beautiful
**[18:59] ---**
But I feel like there aren't
that many people...
**[19:01] ---**
Well, it's not a popular club
to begin with at this school.
**[19:05] ---**
You look good in your uniform, Hinagiku.
**[19:08] ---**
What?
**[19:09] ---**
What?!
**[19:10] ---**
W-Why, thank you.
**[19:12] ---**
Then, shall we get the
introductions out of the way
**[19:14] ---**
and get you practicing
with us a bit, Hayate?
**[19:16] ---**
That guy just...
**[19:17] ---**
...addressed Miss Katsura as "Hinagiku"!
**[19:19] ---**
A-And she called him "Hayate"?!
**[19:21] ---**
But Hinagiku, what about my protective gear?
**[19:24] ---**
Can't you do without, Hayate?
**[19:26] ---**
B-But Hinagiku...
**[19:28] ---**
"Hinagiku"! "Hayate"! "Hinagiku"! "Hayate"!
**[19:32] ---**
Then I'll get permission
from our advisor first.
**[19:35] ---**
Miss Katsura.
**[19:36] ---**
There's no need to let a guy like
him practice kendo with us.
**[19:39] ---**
Azumamiya...
**[19:41] ---**
You there, butler.
**[19:43] ---**
Fight me!
**[19:45] ---**
What?!
**[19:46] ---**
If you lose to me, never come here again!
**[19:48] ---**
Even if he wins, it's not
like we'll come again.
**[19:51] ---**
Hey!
**[19:52] ---**
**If I lose here, the Miss will
never practice kendo...**
**[19:55] ---**
**No, I doubt she'll attempt
any other sport, either.**
**[19:59] ---**
**In which case, I can't lose!**
**[20:01] ---**
I understand! I will accept your challenge!
**[20:04] ---**
Hayate?
**[20:06] ---**
Oh, a flurry of petals!
**[20:08] ---**
This is getting interesting.
**[20:10] ---**
Becoming a sword for your mistress...
**[20:13] ---**
Quite a fine approach to take.
**[20:15] ---**
Oh, you're the Prince of Ties!
**[20:17] ---**
Please give me back the string tie!
**[20:19] ---**
Thank you for the interesting
nickname. But no, thank you.
**[20:22] ---**
Heave-ho. Heave-ho.
**[20:25] ---**
But I wonder if the Little Master
Azumamiya is up to fighting him.
**[20:29] ---**
What?
**[20:30] ---**
Take a look.
**[20:36] ---**
H-His swordsman's chi
is striking the petals!
**[20:40] ---**
Hiten...
**[20:41] ---**
Don't!
**[20:42] ---**
And due to copyright issues,
don't say any more either!
**[20:45] ---**
I see, so it means there's
no need for me to hold back.
**[20:48] ---**
You said your name was Hayate, was it?!
**[20:49] ---**
Y-Yes.
**[20:50] ---**
I, Kotaro Azumamiya, have
judged you to be an opponent,
**[20:53] ---**
whom I must spend the rest
of my life to defeat!
**[20:58] ---**
Heave-ho. Heave-ho.
**[21:03] ---**
**The mystery kendo team member, who
has suddenly declared a rivalry,**
**[21:06] ---**
**Kotaro Azumamiya.**
**[21:08] ---**
**How powerful might he actually be?**
**[21:10] ---**
**The story has suddenly taken a
classic school drama turn of events**
**[21:15] ---**
**and next time, he will finally
fight his destined rival.**
**[21:19] ---**
Hold on a second!
**[21:21] ---**
When did I ever say that I would fight?!
**[21:23] ---**
Nonohara!
**[21:24] ---**
Come, Nonohara!
**[21:25] ---**
Nonohara?
**[21:26] ---**
He's my butler.
**[21:28] ---**
Your opponent...
**[21:30] ---**
...will be this combat
butler, Kaede Nonohara!
**[21:33] ---**
C-Combat butler?!
**[21:35] ---**
**Um, it seems next time,
he'll be fighting this guy.**
**[21:41] ---**
Himuro, is that enough with the flowers?
**[21:43] ---**
Thank you, Little Master Taiga.
**[21:46] ---**
Um, could I ask the non-members to leave?
**[21:49] ---**
What did this guy show up for?
**[21:55] ---**
Naida kokoro no ho ni kaze ga fuki-nuketetta

A breeze crossed the wilted sail of my heart

That's not so bad, so I go together

"Put a Wish" it'll definitely clear up!

And the result is, I'm looking at nothing

One more time, a do-over!

**[23:30] ---**
Hey, there, I'm Nagi Sanzenin.
**[23:32] ---**
I am Hayate Ayasaki.
**[23:33] ---**
I'm Hinagiku Katsura.
**[23:34] ---**
Hinagiku, when did you get here?
**[23:36] ---**
What's this, Hinagiku?
What are you here for?
**[23:38] ---**
I'm going to be in this segment
for a while, too, now.
**[23:41] ---**
Well, speaking of you, Hinagiku,
**[23:42] ---**
it seems you're #1 in popularity in
a certain weekly manga magazine.
**[23:45] ---**
Truly impressive!
**[23:45] ---**
Oh, Hayate, flattery won't
get you anything, you know.
**[23:48] ---**
No, no, you excel both
academically and athletically.
**[23:49] ---**
I wish the Miss would learn a
thing or two from you, too.
**[23:52] ---**
Hayate, it's time already!
**[23:53] ---**
What are you so angry for, Miss?
**[23:55] ---**
Good grief.
**[23:56] ---**

**[23:57] ---**
So, there you have it. Hello,
I am Kaede Nonohara.
***SIGN*** The next episode of "Hayate
the Combat Butler" is...
**[24:00] ---**
I serve as a butler for
the Azumamiya family.
**[24:02] ---**
Now, Nonohara, defeat him right this minute!
**[24:04] ---**
Certainly.
**[24:05] ---**
Safety Shutter!
**[24:07] ---**
Hayate!
**[24:08] ---**
We butlers are not tools
to be used by our masters.
**[24:11] ---**
It is not as if we must
merely do as we are told.
**[24:13] ---**
Next time on "Hayate the Combat Butler",
**[24:15] ---**
"Even in Defeat, Kendo Rage".
**[24:17] ---**
Hayate, I have faith in you.
