That was a beautiful chapter. My eyes are still misty. T^T
So Athena gets rescued and reunited with Hayate. I still don't think this series is over and done yet. Even so, right now I don't even want to think of any theories, and just bask in the serenity of the couple.
So now the obvious question remains: What now? Will the series end soon? (I hope not, it's one of the series that could probably run forever, although the artist would probably want to work on something new after a while)
FYI, I checked on MAL about Athena and she's a "supporting character". Do you think a character that has a VERY Strong connection to the main character, deserves this status? :D
I'm going to change it later when MAL's SQL isn't broken.
