Hayate - The Combat Butler #15

A flurry of cherry blossoms sets a lively spring mood on this volume's cover, where several of the series' familiar characters — including the white-haired, sharp-eyed lead figure in the foreground — are gathered around what appears to be a festive outdoor staircase. Kenjiro Hata's sharp character designs shine through in the expressive lineup, balancing the series' signature blend of charm and comic energy. Volume 15 of Hayate - The Combat Butler, published by Kana in 2013, looks like a perfect entry point into the chaos and camaraderie this series is known for.
