CATDOLL: The author of the 500th chapter of Hayate the Combat Butler manga will publish a new work soon

Anime Star had previously reported that the popular manga Hayate the Combat Butler would have a "super big announcement". Now that the work has exceeded the 500th chapter mark, Weekly Shonen Sunday 2015 No. 32 also used Hayate the Combat Butler as the cover and the front color page to celebrate. The much-anticipated "super big announcement" was also revealed at the same time: the author Hata Kenjiro will start a new manga series, while Hayate the Combat Butler will continue to be serialized. In fact, the recent Hayate the Combat Butler manga has suddenly changed in style and plot, which has caused concerns among fans. In addition, Hata Kenjiro also participated in the production of That's the Voice Actor, so it is still unclear what his new work will be like.
