About Hayate no Gotoku!!

★ 7.7 · 25 Episodes · TV · 3d cg animation, absurdist humour

Absurdist humor takes center stage in this 2009 J.C. Staff production. Running for 25 episodes, the second season of Hayate no Gotoku continues the chaotic life of Hayate Ayasaki, an exceptionally unlucky teenager forced into servitude to pay off his parents' massive debt. Serving as the personal butler to the wealthy and incredibly spoiled Nagi Sanzenin, Hayate finds himself constantly deflecting bizarre assassination attempts, dealing with talking tigers, and navigating the eccentric lives of his employers. The series leans heavily into self-aware comedy, frequently breaking the fourth wall and packing every scene with rapid-fire visual gags and parody humor. Earning a 7.7 score, the show blends this relentless silliness with genuine action sequences and slice-of-life elements. Utilizing 3D CG animation for its more ridiculous action set-pieces, the anime delivers a highly energetic and completely ridiculous ride anchored by a charming butler-employer dynamic.
