ハヤテのごとく! [Hayate no Gotoku! / Hayate the Combat Butler] #8

Two energetic schoolgirls in matching pink uniforms burst from a backdrop of vivid morning glory blooms on this Hayate the Combat Butler Complete Edition volume — one auburn-haired and wide-eyed with surprise, the other dark-haired and cool behind her glasses. It's a charming, lively snapshot of the series' signature blend of comedy and endearing characters, presented here in Shogakukan's polished Complete Version format. Volume 8 of 27 makes this a satisfying stop along a generously collected run of Kenjiro Hata's beloved rom-com manga.
