With his saber at the ready, Hayate is prepared to defend himself...but is there any logical reason why he's even fighting a duel in the first place? Shouldn't the simple act of keeping the Sanzenin household spic and span be enough? Not if your name's Hayate Ayasaki it isn't. | | | Product Details: | | | Author:

THE FIANCE ARRIVESJun 15, 2007
By Sesho

Hayate is still doing his best to be accepted into the Sanzenin household but when a boy named Wataru Tachibana arrives on the scene, the delicate balance between him and Nagi is disrupted. Wataru is actually Nagi's fiance! But don't get the wrong picture. Wataru and Nagi can't stand each other. Their parents were the ones that decided they should get married from an early age since the Tachibanas were almost as rich as the Sanzenins. Of course, we all know that Nagi really loves Hayate, and even Wataru loves someone else: Hayate's bumbling but cute friend Isumi. Of course all these criss-crossing emotions lead to a lot of misunderstandings and lots of laughs.
Hayate the Combat Butler has really grown on me over these 3 released volumes and has actually become one of my favorite manga. The wit is razor-sharp and would actually appeal more to an adult reader instead of a kid. While its comedy is over the top such as involving talking tigers and psychotic robots, it never becomes just wacky for the sake of wackiness. Kenjiro Hata constructs the comedy bits very well. One of the funnier bits is a chapter where Hayate and Nagi visit an amusement park...in her backyard! When Hayate mentions it looks like Neverland, we even get to see a manga version of Michael Jackson (who actually LOOKS like a manga character anyway!). All is not well as the park mascots attempt to kill Hayate! This series is great and will keep you laughing the whole way through. Try it out.
