Sixteen-year-old Hayate is really down on his luck. Because his unemployed parents are good-for-nothings who waste what money they have on gambling, Hayate had to start working at a young age to help out his family.

Part of Season 1 and all of Season 2 is available on crunchyroll.com.
There is also a 2010 [[Live Action TV]] [[Taiwanese Series]] of the same name, based on the original storyline but with differently named characters. Hayate and friends appear in the [[Massive Multiplayer Crossover]] game, [[
