Hayate the Combat Butler! Heaven is a Place on Earth

Endless fields of green.

Plenty of water.

Mountains covered in trees.

So much life!

So this is where Shishigami-sama's forest is.

Right, Hayate?!

I'm not very sure about that.

The country's good!

It excites me!

That's true...

August 27th.

At the end of summer vacation, when all sorts of things happened,

we're on our way to visit Nishizawa-san's grandparents' place after more things happened.

Please read the original comics for more information on all the "sorts of things" that happened.

Please wait to see what more "sorts of things" happened afterwards in the later part of this movie.

For now, what I want you to take away from all these "things"...

...is that for all sorts of reasons...

...Milady's tension is at max for all sorts of things.

Hayate-kun, who are you giving your explanation to?

Your monologue is being spoken out loud.

At first, Milady was against the trip...

...but currently...

Hey, Hayate, do you think I'll find Totoro here?

To-Totoro, you say?

Yes.

Before this trip, I did lots of research by watching many anime movies that took place in the countryside.

And I learned!

If we're out in the country this far out, there may be one or two Totoro out there!

Even a small Totoro's okay.

I want to catch one and take it home.

I-I'm not too sure about that.

I can't wait to get there.

I just can't wait!

Nagi-chan's saying some adorable things.

She is.

Totoro are an endangered species, so we're not allowed to catch them.

Eh?

Oh my god, Risa, we found an idiot out in the country.

Yeah, it may be too late to cure her.

So you know, it is acceptable for Nagi-chan, who is thirteen years old, to wish Totoro exist...

...But for you, a seventeen year old, to say what you said is just bad.

B-But...

What are you three talking about?

Nothing!

I hope you find a Totoro, Nagi-chan.

Yes, I will find one.

Um, Maria-san.

I-Is it okay to let Milady be like that?

I think she has some over-the-top expectations for the countryside.

I'm so looking forward to the countryside.

I can't wait!

I see what you mean...

Goodness, I thought I taught that humans who cannot control their emotions are trash.

Kayura-san...

You still have that mask on?

Yes, I want to take it off, but it's to prevent spoiling the surprise later.

But with the high expectations she has, the shock she will receive when she discovers the truth will be great.

I hope it won't turn out like Ruka said.

W-Well...

I see... I can't go because I've got a live concert on that day, but enjoy.

You'll be covered in bugs.

C-Covered in bugs?

Well, summer in the countryside looks peaceful, but it's actually filled with bugs.

Swarms of mosquitoes.

Flying giant moths.

Stampedes of centipedes on the ground...

...and spiders of unbelievable sizes raining from the ceiling!

Enjoy such a country life in my place.

Are you actually sad that you can't go with us?

N-Not at all!

I don't want to go to the countryside in the summer at all!

I can just see you getting pissed off at cicadas and say they're noisy!

I... I would...

...never get pissed off at cicadas!

If Milady's expectations are not met, I'm sure she'll return to being an indoors-type person again.

As her butler, I must ensure she turns into a girl of nature that loves the countryside.

Yes! We're here!

It's amazing!

This really is a prime example of country life in Japan.

It's so peaceful.

It really is.

Look, Milady!

This is the countryside you've been longing to see!

Hayate, it's hot.

It's so hot, I'm going to die...

I'm going to die...

Kayura-san, if you don't take that off, you really will die.

You're not saying you want to go back the moment you got here, are you?

O-Of course not!

The countryside being hot is within my expectations!

To live in the countryside, the wisdom and creativity to live with nature is necessary!

So we will think of ways to distill the country way and put it into practice!

Milady is saying some admirable things!

Therefore, Hayate, make a run to a convenience store and get me some Häagen-Dazs.

I'm sorry, Nagi-chan, there are no convenience stores around here.

H-How about Starbucks?

None, of course.

Oh no!

Milady's expectations for the countryside just plummeted like the certain game company's stock price.

I've got to do something about this.

Look, Milady, there's a tunnel in the trees over there.

Maybe a Totoro's hiding there.

Are you sure, Hayate?!

We'd better go and look then!

Chiharu!

Let's go catch a Totoro!

H-Hey, stop pulling on me.

Good. Now Milady will turn into a girl of nature who will like the countryside even if it's a little hot.

Come on now. You don't usually work out, so it's dangerous if you start running like this all of a sudden!

Nonsense!

If you don't hurry...

...I'll eat all the corn before you, too!

A-Are you okay, Milady?

I'm soaked...

I'm soaking wet...

It plummeted again!

L-Let's get in a bath, get changed, and enjoy some sweet watermelon.

Watermelon? It's sweet?

Of course!

Watermelons from the countryside are extra sweet and good.

It didn't go back up much.

Then I'll have some.

Yes, then let's go!

Ayasaki-kun...

You know... I did fall in with her...

Hey, are you okay?

Working as her butler is tough work even after coming to the countryside like this.

Hayate-kun always has it tough.

I'm home!

Grandma! I brought everyone with me!

Hello!

Hey, Ayumu.

Welcome.

I was waiting.

Bringing so many friends with you.

Gradma is so happy.

And look at you. You've become so pretty since I last saw you.

You're almost a completely different person.

Yes, since you're looking at a different person.

This is Katsura Hinagiku-san. My friend.

Put your glasses on, Grandma.

Ah, is that right?

By the way, Grandma, we just arrived, but can we use the bath?

Go right ahead.

I didn't think taking the bath would be the first thing we do.

You're so clumsy.

You're the last person who should be saying that!

But thinking about that scorching sun waiting for me after I get out of the bath...

It depresses me...

You're the one who wanted to fully experience the countryside where you find nothing.

Don't complain about such trivial things.

You have a point, but...

This isn't a game or anime where you find entertainment just by sitting around.

You need to go find the entertainment yourself, else you can't enjoy the countryside.

Go find the entertainment?

Like? Like what?

For example...

For example.

As an example...

Why are you joining in?

Stag beetles!

Stag beetles in the country are really big!

Stag beetles?

Girls don't get excited over that.

They're big? Are they really that big?!

As big as the giraffe stag beetle?

Yes, of course!

The stag beetles in this area are as big as that gira-whatnot stag beetle.

Though I've never seen a gira-whatnot stag beetle.

I guess it was effective to the Mushiking generation.

Okay! Then I'd better go catch one before someone else gets them all!

Let's go, Chiharu.

We must get out and go look for those huge stag beetles!

Wh-What's the matter, Milady?

You've got some adorable clothes on, Ayumu.

Is that what's popular in Tokyo?

Um...

Milady.

Would you like to go look for Totoro?

I've had enough.

Totoro?

I don't care!

I've had enough!

I was about to be killed by a humongous spider!

I can't go search for Totoro or stag beetles!

So I'll eat this watermelon and then take a nap.

Yes, okay.

Then please enjoy your rest.

I'm sure you'll find things you like about the countryside after a short nap.

On what grounds can you say that?

W-Well, if you say so, I'll give it some thought.

Thank you very much, Milady.

It's hot...

Can't you make any other noises?!

Hayate! Hayate! Hayate!

Yes.

What's the matter, Milady?

The summer's too hot!

The cicadas are picking on me!

And my hand's all sticky!
