'Completely' New Hayate the Combat Butler Anime Slated for Fall with Manglobe

This year's 31st issue of Shogakukan's Weekly Shonen Sunday magazine is revealing on Wednesday that the new Hayate the Combat Butler anime will begin airing this fall. The issue shows new artwork from the anime studio Manglobe.

The "99th volume" of Kenjirou Hata's Hayate the Combat Butler manga officially announced the new anime last August. The Weekly Shonen Sunday issue does not refer to the new anime as the third season as Hata once did before then, and emphasizes that it will be a "completely new Hayate the Combat Butler" based on Hata's original concepts.

According to Weekly Shonen Sunday, the new anime is "now in earnest production." More information is slated to be announced "in the near future."

  If Athena's not going to be in this season, then all hype will be down the drain I guess. She's what the manga people have been waiting for in a long time. I thought she'd appear in Season 2 but I guess she might be relegated to Season 3 so make it happen Manglobe and your odd character designs.
