Context YMMV / HayateCrossBlade

Go To

1* AlternateCharacterInterpretation: Ensuu. The only thing that's certain about her is that she's a BloodKnight who has very little regard for the rules of the Hoshitori or the well-being of others. However, it's next to impossible to say if her excessive brutality in battle stems from her taking genuine glee in hurting people, from a more simple and almost animalistic savagery, or even from Mei's manipulations and instructions. It could even be all three. It's also not quite clear if she even understands that hurting people in battle is wrong. There is also an entry in the [=WMG=] page that supposes she may be autistic, with fighting being her narrow focus, which would also explain her various behavioral quirks, feelings of isolation, and inability to understand people outside of the context of her own limited focus.
2* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Although just a manga (and therefore no actual sound can be heard by the reader), a certain Student Council President won't defeat an opponent of hers in a certain battle until the song in the background is at its climax.
3* CrazyIsCool: Everyone, but special mention goes to Hitsugi, who is so good at running everyone ragged because she's just plain nuts, and "Yagyuu" Makoto, who has managed to both convince herself she's in some sort of samurai story, and to learn mostly-competent swordsmanship from watching movies and reading novels (and then there's the fact that she thought this was a good idea in the first place).
4%%* CrossesTheLineTwice: Riona and Kiriya's... everything.
5* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: Oh so many, but one of the funniest is Ayana's 'Dainingen Giri' where she picks Hayate up and swings her around like a big blade.
6* LesYay:
7** A lot (mostly between shinyuu), though Jun is the only one with an explicit interest in the female form. ...A very, very explicit interest.
8** Sae and Akira probably have the most Non-joke amount of LesYay, Sae really can't stand her Fiancee and has stated that she would rather marry Akira, unlike most instances when someone says this, there is no joke and its played completely straight.
9** Hitsugi and Miyamoto also have a [[PseudoRomanticFriendship special relationship]] that even with Hitsugi's epic {{Troll}} nature still is played seriously more often than being a joke setup.
10* MemeticMolester: Jun is this on both sides of the Fourth Wall.
11* SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome: Also very many instances.
12* PortmanteauCoupleName: Due to the ThemeNaming for a large part of the cast. Can also be IdiosyncraticShipNaming.
13* TheScrappy: Ryouichi. [[ButtMonkey Tate]][[StalkerWithACrush waki]] gets more love than he does.
14* TakeThatScrappy: The last we see of Ryouichi, he's crying in his car thanks to Sae putting him in his place.
15* ViewerGenderConfusion: The Kurogane twins' mother is very obviously female, but before she unzipped her jacket and revealed her rather impressive chest, her gender was pretty ambiguous. It didn't help that she ''and'' her daughters introduced her as the Kurogane Twins' "father."
