Hayate no Gotoku! 302

• Note: Ok, so some of the translations may not be direct or exact translation because I switched the word orders or paraphrased for better sentence flow in English grammar or slang, but the overall meaning will remain the same. Sometimes I’ll use the slash “/” for when I can’t decide an exact English word to use and put a couple choices. Sentences in parentheses are my opinions or translator’s notes/explanations for some parts or scenes, and maybe on occasion a commentary on the situation (you guys just decide whether to put those in for fun/humor or not, for the none-t/n ones). Different/separate sentences in connected bubbles or boxes will also be in new lines.

1. Margin: A princess, or rather, a smaller Athena arrives at the apartment… Is there no end to the butler’s troubles...?!
2. So, how about this room over here?
3. Well...
4. ……
5. I see, just as it was rumored...
6. This place is a concentration spot of incredible powers.
7. Now all I need here is Hinagiku-san's Shirozakura...
8. And I should be able to restore my lost powers in about 3 months…
9. As well as...
10. The memories of "Tennousu Athena"… (Hmm, kind of makes you wonder how much of Athena’s memory does she still retain…)
11. So, Hayate...
12. Please...
13. Make sure you convince Hinagiku-san to move in.

Page 3

1. But how am I supposed to convince Hinagiku-san...
2. When she's so unwilling to move in?
3. Judging by way she was acting, I probably can’t convince her easily…
4. But it’s no use to just stand here sulking about it!!
5. I'll just face this directly and honestly!!
6. Man, I can't believe him.
7. Asking me to live with him like that…
8. Living under the same roof with the person I love...
9. How could I do something that embarrassing?!
10. But what really hurt...
11. SFX: Open
12. Was how Hayate-kun didn't have the slightest hesitation about living together…
13. I'm home ----
14. Besides, I’m still a teenager in high school…
15. There's no way my parents would allow ----

Page 4

1. Of course, I understand ♥
2. It's all for the sake of the princess!!
3. Thank you very much, ma’am!!
4. SFX: shock
5. What are you coming to my mother for ----?!
6. Ahh!!
7. SFX: Wham
8. Though it’ll be a bit lonely without Hina-chan for 3 months, but I'll manage. I’ll be rooting for you!!
9. Mom!! How can you agree to this so easily?!
10. Listen to me! Even though we have different rooms, Hayate-kun lives in the same apartment you know!
11. Aren't you even slightly concerned about it?
12. Well Hayate-kun, make sure you resist if Hina-chan attacks you.
13. Um… Ok…
14. Why are you assuming that I’d be the attacker ---!! (LOL, maybe because Hayate’s face has “M” written all over it…?)

Page 5

1. Oh well, jokes aside...
2. Hayate-kun's master and the others are there, right…?
3. And I’m not worried since I trust Hina-chan very much in this matter. (Man, how many times will Hata keep changing Hina’s mother’s appearance? Does anyone else see images of Ruka on her now…?)
4. Did you hear that, Hinagiku-san?!
5. Then let's go live together...
6. For the sake of that young princess!!
7. No way!!
8. SFX: open
9. Eh?! Why not?!
10. Why? Well...
11. Figure it out yourself!!
12. Please wait!
13. Hinagiku-san!!
14. Hinagiku-saaaan ----!!!

Page 6

1. Uh ~~ Even if I try to figure it out myself…
2. I still… don’t know why…
3. Hmm? If it isn’t Ayasaki-kun…
4. Oh, sensei…
5. What’s the matter? You look down… Did you use up all your money?
6. Haha… I'm not like you, sensei; I didn't have any money to begin with.
7. Hmph ~ so you don't have money then…
8. What a waste of time…
9. Ah!! Even though she’s a useless swindler…
10. She’s still Hinagiku-san's sister!!

Page 7

1. Although there’s not much hope, I’ll still give it a try…
2. I might get a clue towards convincing Hinagiku-san from her…
3. Um, usele...I mean sensei!!
4. Huh? What?
5. You just called me useless, didn't you?
6. No, I didn't say anything about that…
7. Well, the thing is… There is something troubling me right now…
8. And I was wondering if I can discuss it a bit with use --- sensei?
9. Use...what?
10. You were just about to say "useless", weren't you?
11. Well, whatever… What do you want to discuss with me?
12. Go for it.
13. Really? You’ll listen?
14. Yep, but only if it's something serious!
15. I won’t answer any pointless or boring questions!
16. I… I know!
17. I’m very serious about this…
18. The thing is...
19. What...?

Page 8

1. I wish to know the best way…
2. To convince a girl to live with me.
3. ……
4. Ehhhh…?
5. What’s with this advanced-level relationship question…?!
6. Th - this damn butler…!!
7. Already planning to live with his girlfriend while still in high school ----?!
8. Damn…! How envious…
9. W – well…
10. I guess that in the end, what you need is love, right?
11. L - love?
12. That’s right!! If you want her to live with you…

Page 9

1. I guess the most important thing is to make sure you let her know…
2. ……
3. Just how important she is to you.
4. In other words… It's just like a proposal.
5. Yep, a proposal…
6. I - I see.
7. So that's it...
8. I wasn’t able to convince her because I needed love!!
9. I got it! Thank you very much, useless swindler!!
10. Useless swindler?! Did you just call me useless?!
11. ……
12. Damn…
13. Love… Huh……
14. After all, it is a little girl’s request…
15. And I doubt anything will happen if I do live there for three month… There’s really no need to worry much… (Well, I rather doubt that… Hina will have plenty other to worry about)
16. Did you hear that, Hinagiku-san?!
17. Then let's go live together for the sake of that young princess!!

Page 10

1. But Living together is clearly something embarrassing…
2. Yet it doesn’t bother Hayate-kun to the least…
3. Looks like…
4. He really has no special feelings for me…
5. Hinagiku-san…
6. !
7. Hayate-kun!!
8. What do you want?! Don’t bother me right now!!
9. I…
10. I'm sorry about keeping asking such an unreasonable request when you are clearly troubled…
11. SFX: Grab
12. So…!

Page 11

1. Hinagiku-san,
2. I have come to express my love for you.
3. Wha...?
4. Love?
5. Yes!!
6. That feeling that makes me want to live with you so much!!
7. Wait…
8. What are you saying, idiot?! Wasn’t it just for the sake of that princess?!
9. Well, that is part of it…

Page 12

1. But I also believe that…
2. I’d feel very happy to live with Hinagiku-san.
3. ……
4. Hayate-kun…
5. ……
6. You would… feel happy to live with me?
7. Of course.
8. It seems that…
9. I keep making Hinagiku-san mad…

Page 13

1. But when I see your smile…
2. I would feel very happy.
3. …
4. So… Will you come with me…
5. And show me your smiles even more? (Just when you are about to go “woot!”…)
6. Wh-what?!
7. What’s with these proposal-style lines…?!
8. That’s right…
9. Katsura-sensei said that I could convince you if I sound like proposing…
10. ……
11. SFX: Woosh (… Hata would remind you how these situations usually turns out…)
12. SFX: Wham

Page 14

1. Hayate-kun, you baka! Baka!! (I just thought it sounds funnier to use the original Japanese word here… You guys can change it to “idiot” if you want…)
2. SFX: Throb throb
3. Where did I do wrong?
4. Box: everywhere!!
5. Seriously...
6. Hayate-kun is really an idiot…!
7. Argh!!
8. Why did I fall in love with someone like this guy!?
9. Oh.
10. Is that so…?
11. !!
12. …
13. SFX: Blush
14. Ah…
15. I see ~
16. I can see why you wouldn't want to live under the same roof as the person you love.
17. No… Wait…!
18. Well, rather than having him finding out your feeling when living together…
19. Maybe it’s better to just tell him now…
20. No…! I can’t!!

Page 15

1. I'm sorry, but I don’t know time for you to be indecisive…
2. Eh?!
3. Eh?1
4. Eh…?!
5. So if I keep this a secret for you…
6. Will you please come live with me?
7. ……
8. And so ----
9. Eh?
10. You are moving in as well, Hina? (Hehe, I wonder who’s moving in next… Yozora? Ruka? Ayumu?)
11. Well…
12. Looks like it…
13. Don't be like that…
14. You might as well try to enjoy it now that you’re settled in already…

Page 16

1. Well…
2. The more the merrier.
3. That's right…
4. Let's just get along.
5. With more people here…
6. I'm not going to be able to wander around the building as much.
7. This is getting interesting…
8. I wonder how everything will turn out…
9. ……
10. Huh?
11. Why are there so many people here so early in the morning?
12. It's night already, milady…
13. Box: And so a new daily life begins.
14. Right margin: By means of a slight threat, more people have moved into the apartment! Life will get more interesting from now on as well… And happy new year to all!!♥
