Ep. 11: Hinagiku questions her feelings while Hayate faces a cross-dressing curse before the festival

Hinagiku struggles with her growing romantic thoughts about Hayate, particularly after a vivid dream. She becomes furious upon learning he is at risk of failing his grade. Hayate attempts to apologize but remains speechless. When Hinagiku asks about his parents, he dismisses the inquiry. Chaos ensues when Sakuya breaks Isumi’s cursed doll, forcing Hayate into a maid uniform and shocking Nagi and Maria. Isumi declares that Hayate must defeat Hinagiku in a match before midnight to lift the curse, or he will be compelled to cross-dress forever. Hinagiku, advised by Linn, doubts her feelings are love. Isumi provides instructions, but Hinagiku interprets them as a challenge. During the Hakuou Hinamatsuri festival, Hayate tries to meet Hinagiku secretly, but Izumi’s pursuit leads to an encounter with a man who becomes infatuated with him.
