Whip out your screentone and your T square, because this manga just leveled up in self-referential humor. Nagi’s latest plan to make back her fortune—become a superstar manga artist! But will assisting a pro and working a table at a doujinshi convention start Nagi on her artistic career…or force her to face the fact that her manga is, to put it delicately, terrible beyond all measure?

The latest lovely lady in Hayate’s life is nothing less than a superstar idol singer! So what if she thinks he’s a girl because they met while he was in drag? Nobody’s perfect. Meanwhile, the gang encounters a little girl who’s the spitting image of the young (and currently AWOL) Athena. Is Hayate ready for babysitting?

Nagi is determined to become a hit manga artist, and only one muse can inflame her with inspiration—Hayate in drag. As it happens, Hayate’s been spending a lot of time in skirts since he became BFFs with idol singer Ruka, who’s under the mistaken impression that he’s a girl. Are Hayate’s many other love interests confused by his increasingly fabulous choice of couture? Well, yes, but at this point, they’ve learned not to ask questions.

It isn’t easy being a superstar idol singer who moonlights as an indie manga artist. Ruka is plumb worn out from the nonstop singing, schmoozing and self-publishing. Luckily, Hayate is there to save the day! He goes to work as Ruka’s personal assistant…on top of his usual workload as a high school student, café worker and combat butler. If only there were someone to assist the assistant…

Idol singer Ruka and ex-heiress Nagi share the same improbable dream—to become hit manga artists. Nagi may not have art skills, a work ethic or the ability to write a coherent plot, but she’s an expert on two things: geekiness and money. Can she create a best seller through the sheer power of viral marketing? And how will Ruka fare in her radical alternative plan to actually draw a darn comic?

You can’t beat life at a boardinghouse with a butler. Despite his busy schedule, Hayate is always on call to dispense back rubs, serve up snacks and provide endless romantic tension with the female residents. But not even the tastiest ramen will distract Nagi from her inspiring, if ridiculous, determination to become a superstar manga artist…

The life of a combat butler was hard enough when Hayate had only one mistress. Now that he’s waiting on an entire houseful of girls, his service skills are being truly tested. Whether he’s escorting ultra-geeky new resident Kayura around town, teaching pop star Ruka to ride or die, or scraping up the funds to treat the whole gang to barbecue, Hayate is prepared for any challenge. But can he take on his most formidable one yet—a very bad cold?

The boardinghouse is about to get even more crowded! Ayumu is determined to spend the summer under the same roof as Hayate, but how can a perfectly ordinary teenage girl afford a room of her own? Meanwhile, the perfectly extraordinary Ruka gives up pop stardom to pursue her artistic dreams and move in with the gang. But what’s with the seriously bad mojo emanating from the attic?

Life in a boardinghouse with a combat butler and a bevy of charming young ladies isn’t as much fun as it might sound. Well, okay, it is, but the residents still have to deal with mundane problems like trash day, dining out cheap and what to do on summer break. And things look bleak for the girls who have crushes on Hayate (that is, all of them) when glamorous idol singer / adorkable manga artist Ruka decides to woman up and confess her feelings. How can the boardinghouse—nay, the manga itself—survive the resolution of romantic tension?

Ruka has thrown down the gauntlet! By confessing her feelings for Hayate and going in for a lip-lock, the idol singer turned manga artist puts our hero in danger of actually getting a girlfriend. To stop this unacceptable slackening of romantic tension, Nagi makes an offer Ruka can’t refuse. Now Hayate’s fate rests on the outcome of a manga-drawing competition between the two aspiring artists. Does Hayate have any say on which girl he ends up with? Ha ha, of course not.

Two manga artists enter. One manga artist leaves…with Hayate! When Ruka raises the stakes of the manga-drawing duel, Nagi realizes she has to get serious and hone her art skills. Maybe training in the mountains, shonen manga-style, will help. Or taking a scenic trip to Kyoto. Or wandering the desert wastes until she keels over and then they’ll all be sorry!

As the battle for Hayate’s heart (or whatever parts a girl can get) reaches a crescendo, the entire harem of this harem manga kicks into action. Nagi races across Japan with a speed-limit-defying mad doctor, Ruka is tempted to return to pop stardom and Hayate is yet again forced to dress in drag. Meanwhile, Chiharu and Hinagiku enjoy a very nice afternoon of sightseeing in Kyoto, because some girls deserve a break from wacky antics once in a while.
