For Hayate, the money may run out, but the gags never do!

Created by Kenjiro Hata | MoreLess about Hayate the Combat Butler

Since the tender age of nine, Hayate Ayasaki has busted his behind at various part-time jobs to support his degenerate gambler parents. And how do they repay their son’s selfless generosity? By selling his organs to the yakuza to cover their debts! But fate throws Hayate a bone…sort of. Now the butler of a wealthy young lady, Hayate can finally pay back his debts, and it’ll only take him 40 years to do it.

Without ever receiving any kind of manga award, Kenjiro Hata’s
first series, Umi no Yuusha Lifesavers, was published in Shonen Sunday Super. He followed that up with his smash hit Hayate the Combat Butler. His follow-up series, Fly Me to the Moon, began serialization in 2018 in Weekly Shonen Sunday.

Hayate the Combat Butler, Vol. 45

Summer vacation is over, but Nagi knows how to keep the good times rolling: ignore all learning opportunities and focus on the big class trip! But a school like Hakuou isn’t about to let its students relax. That’s how most of our cast winds up either imprisoned in a dungeon or skiing down a mountainside during a blizzard. You can’t say it isn’t educational. But whether or not they get their deposit back, there’s a huge cash prize for the student who survives—and by amazing coincidence, it’s exactly the amount needed to free Hayate from his debt. Does Nagi want him freed, though? Exit Hayate, pursued by a bear!
