ハヤテのごとく!/Hayate no Gotoku Manga
Hayate the Combat Butler Chapter 500 Review
SPOILER Summary/Synopsis:
With the 500th chapter of the manga, the story steps away from the Level 5 trip to have Nagi and Hayate discuss her manga. Nagi produces her latest work, which she says is a romance manga and a forbidden love story. In her story, Britney encounters a witch, who demands she eat her bell peppers. Then Britney finds Haru’s “compact” (laptop PC), and easily hacks in to see Haru’s “sword” collection of images, showing a lot of yaoi-themeed images. The Haru character catches Britney looking at her laptop and freaks out.
In response to this story of Nagi’s, Chiharu smacks her for apparently looking at the contents of Chiharu’s computer, which Nagi claims had about 20GB of this yaoi-themed sword imagery.
Hayate and Mari remark on how the 500th chapter ended up being pretty pointless.
Thoughts/Review:
Heh!heh! While this chapter was pretty pointless, I was amused by this revalation that Chiharu has suggestive images of guys with swords in yaoi-themed ways.
Within Nagi’s manga, I was amused by the double entendre with the term “swords.” For some reason, the way things played out, I couldn’t help but be reminded of the old British comedy, Are You Being Served, which uses double entendre as the basis of its humor.
Otherwise, there’s nothing remarkable about the chapter. We have a couple of weeks to wait for the next chapter.
It’s hard for me to believe I’m saying this about an HnG chapter, but… I want my ten minutes back. Didn’t hate it, but I definitely want my ten minutes back.
😆 Yeah, it was pretty pointless.
this conversation is getting a meta… pointless comment (this) about a pointless comment (ANB) about a pointless comment (arim) about a pointless comment (Hayate) about a pointless chapter (HnG).
If this were a pointless math problem it would be:
x=0(y^z)
where y is quality of the comment, z is the number of comments, and x is the value of the comment. find the value of x.
and I just spent 3 minutes writing that… =_=
😆 😀
Actually, wouldn’t it be the opposite of pointless? x=0(y^z) would describe a plane centered on x=0 with all possible values of y and z, so it would contain infinite points. (^_~)
Could be worse… you could have spent most of a week ruminating on it subconsciously. (>.<)
My brain just ruminates over work problems that have gone on of late. 😛
Best chapter evar! Kidding aside, this is probably why Nagi often gets accused of having Aesop’s amnesia, although I’m positive that’s not true.
😆 I hear ya. 😀
