By the looks of it, it seems I am one of the few who is actually enjoying the current story arc.

And that scene finally appears after so long. I feel that the manga has finally caught up.
Out of the eighteen comments, only you remembered that? How sad.
And I agree, that scene from chapter 268 finally appeared after 67 chapters of wait. I still can't believe that almost nobody remembered that great moment of foreshadowing and prolepsis. I guess people here are so busy stating how much they hate the current arc/hate the characters/how "predictable" the story have become/how bored they are with the manga that they have completely forgotten what was one of the most important and revealing scenes of the current story arc.

As far as Nagi, i think even the author realizes that the female lead is one of the least favorite, but to tell the truth how many actually are good? Side characters are typically better.
Speak for yourself, please. In the last official Shounen Sunday's Hayate no Gotoku! character popularity poll, Nagi ranked third only behind Athena and Hinagiku as the most popular character in the manga. If something, her popularity is becoming even greater in the lastest chapters, even beating Maria in the latest official popularity poll, and if it wasn't for Athena, Nagi would had been the second most popular character in the series.
