Hayate the Combat Butler Manga Chapter 398

ハヤテのごとく!/Hayate no Gotoku Chapter 398

SPOILER Summary/Synopsis:

Nagi announces to a skeptical Chiharu that her emergency trip will be to Kyoto.  She wants them to follow her, though Chiharu states she doesn’t have the money to make such a trip. Ayumu points out Nagi’s new found motivation and says they should go with her, so Chiharu and Hina agree. However, Ayumu gets a call from Wataru, who demands she get her butt to work, where he plans to work her for an entire week. Thus, the first unexpected item for Nagi’s trip has happened, leaving Hina and Chiharu not feeling confident about things.

Returning to Yukari-chan House, Nagi is greeted by Maria, where Nagi informs Maria of her plans for a Kyoto trip. Nagi is surprised to see Hayate and Ruka there. Hayate wants to know the reason for her trip, so she explains about the advice Ashibashi-sensei gave her on making an interesting manga. Ruka wonders if that is enough, so Nagi states that she’s leaving her iPhone behind, meaning she’ll be cut off from contacted people if she’s in trouble, or using GPS, or any other app.

Nagi goes on to say that she doesn’t even know how to get to Tokyo Station, nor where Arashiyama is in Koyoto. She’s also leaving her credit cards behind, retaining a wallet with an unknown amount of money therein.  Hayate finds all of this very bad, but Isumi shows up, impressed with Nagi’s determination. As such, she says she’ll show Nagi the way to Kyoto, leading the others to figure that Nagi will never make it to that historic city.

Thoughts/Review:

*lol* I got to give it to Hata-sensei — he never goes quite where you expect him to. ^_^

The first item, though perhaps not entirely unexpected, is having Ayumu removed from the trip to actually start working at Wataru’s store.

Also unexpected was having Ruka and Hayate waiting at Yukari-chan House when Nagi returned. One wonders if they end up getting in on this trip too. *lol*

Isumi’s unexpected arrival doesn’t mean she’ll actually be there for the trip, since she pops in and out at will. However, it would be amusing if her leading Nagi’s party to Kyoto was just what is needed for interesting experiences to happen. ^_^

For now, it looks to be Nagi, Hina, and Chiharu for sure. Ashibashi-sensei may still be along for the ride even if Ayumu is out. I hope Isumi is there, and I think it would be fun if Ruka and Hayate end up tagging along as well.

    Nagi going on a trip to Kyoto is similar to the other manga series that has the kyoto arc like Negima and School Rumble.

    Why would Isumi always want to lead the way when she always get lost? But when she is mad and serious she knows where to go like in episode 10 of Can’t Take My Eyes Off You when she found Dolly and attack her for holding Nagi hostage.
