Voiced By Mikako Takahashi

Ayumu Nishizawa (西沢 歩 Nishizawa Ayumu?) is a girl from Hayate's previous high school. She is also known as "Nom-Nom-tan" (Nom Nom is an onomatopoeia for eating) in season 1, as she appears in every episode always eating something, while miraculously never getting fat or diseased.

Appearance

Ayumu has gray hair (dark blue in the second season of the anime) which is tied in two pigtails and has olive green eyes. She is sometimes seen wearing a Shiomi High School uniform or wearing modern clothes.

Story

Beginning

Ayumu is a girl from Hayate's school before he became a butler. She held a crush on Hayate since their first meeting 

Hayate No Gotoku 122

Hayate saves Ayumu from a bicycle accident

but couldn't get the courage to confess while he was around at school. After one month, she sees him again for Hayate wasn't able to attend school due to his new job. She is happy when he payed his old school a visit and was glad that she was able to see him again. She violently lashes out at anyone who badmouths her and Hayate including a teacher who called Hayate a dropout because his parents had refunded all his school fees the day Hayate was sold. Hayate, upon knowing what his parents did, accepted the truth and bid farewell to Ayumu but she couldn't accept it and confessed her feelings to Hayate. Shocked by her confession, Hayate thought of a way to escape the situation by saying that he was only intrested in 2-D girls after getting a vision of Nagi crying. Despite such failure, she is one of the few girls who has successfully confessed her love to Hayate which often places her in awkward situations when she is alone with him.

First Meeting with Nagi Sanzenin at Sanzenin Estate

Not deterred by the rejection, Ayumu continues to go after Hayate which eventually lead her towards the Sanzeni'n Residence. When she saw Hayate enter the mansion grounds, she continued to follow and when she was about to enter, she is confronted by the SPs and was caught. Due to this, she concluded that Hayate is within the hands of dangerous Yakuza. Maria, who was asked by the SPs on what to do with the intruder, tells them to let go of her upon seeing her uniform. Despite this, Ayumu still thinks of them as dangerous people and ran away from them to find and escape with Hayate. During her search, she eventually found Hayate and learned that he's now a debt-ridden butler at the ultra-prosperous Sanzenin family's estate. Specifically, she found out that he's currently working as a butler of the young mistress of that huge mansion. During their talk, Nagi also ended up in that place and when both her and Ayumu first met, they instinctively knew that they would be rivals to fight over Hayate. In a delightful metaphorical stand-off scene, Nagi's avatar was a dragon and Ayumu was represented by a hamster which got eaten by the dragon. Ayumu retreated from the field that day but swore she'd bring "a stronger hamster avatar" next time. Ayumu later challenges Nagi to karaoke, only to lose but did not regret the time she spent with her. Even though Nagi is so rich, Ayumu insists on treating her out of her own pocket like she would any other friend.

Nagi staying at Ayumu's house (Anime only)

In one episode of the anime, when Nagi was brooding over how Hayate's taste in women leaned towards "the ordinary girl", she ended up staying at Ayumu's home to learn of "being ordinary" for she believed that Ayumu herself is ordinary. Although she was of great inconvenience, Ayumu did not chase her away and remained hospitable. She also stood up to defend Nagi when a giant monster turtle (the lake in the Sanzenin estate has a strange ecology) loomed over them. Shaking with fear and armed only with a stick, she did not hesitate to stand for Nagi.

On Valentine's Day, she tried to confess her feelings to Hayate again and along the way to Hakuou, she met Hinagiku who helped her enter the school grounds. At first, she failed for she gave Hayate the obligation chocolate instead of the serious one but she was able to confess her feelings to Hayate when Hinagiku told Hayate to chase after Ayumu and have the chocolate switched. Due to this, Ayumu started to admire Hinagiku and told herself that if she could be like her, Hayate would have already fallen for her. Later in the series, she met Hinagiku again when Hayate temporarily stayed at Hinagiku's house. At first, she misunderstood the situation. But later the problem was solved. Later, she helped Hayate choose a present for Hinagiku at her birthday.

Shimoda Arc

Due to a mysterious meteorite being rumored to have mystical effects that was shown on TV, Ayumu decided to go to the Izu Peninsula on her bicycle, convinced that she would arrive there by evening. Along the way, she encounters Nagi in an unknown Russian ramen restaurant and finds out that she is lost after getting separated from Hayate and Maria along the way to Izu. Due to them going to the same destination, Ayumu offers Nagi a ride towards there on her bicycle.

Along the way, they were confronted by a group of armed people in a car looking for a girl with twin ponytails. Since both of them appeared to have one, the unknown people have decided to kill them both which made Ayumu go full speed in driving her bicycle. At first, they were able to out-speed those chasing them but in the end Ayumu's strength is not enough to overcome them again. Before they were caught up, Hayate arrived with the help of Ginka after convincing her that he will give his blood to Isumi if she helps her rescue Nagi. As a result, the unknown people are taken care of by Ginka as Hayate, Ayumu and Nagi headed towards the train station to meet the others.

At the train station, all of them have reunited but they haven't reached their destination as of yet and Ayumu has decided to still get there by bike. Due to Nagi knowing that Ayumu's bike is precious to her, she orders Hayate to escort Ayumu and drive her bike to Izu. It was settled by then and Hayate along with Ayumu has gone of towards Izu in a bike and due to an encounter with a couple in a race car, they have decided to out-speed it with Hayate using his full cycling speed. Ayumu, having a great time with Hayate, said that she'll no longer ask for anything for White day as that moment alone satisfied her. Upon arriving in Izu, she meets Hinagiku again and Maria appears as she sees Nagi at Yukariko's grave.

White Day Arc

White Day has come and Hayate is looking for a present for Ayumu. During his search, he then encounters Hinagiku in front of a present shop who happen to be staring at a deeming gift for white day. After knowing what Hayate is up to, she then suggests the same gift that she was staring and after Hayate has done so, he then decides to find Ayumu. During Hayate's search for Ayumu, she found Hayate in the park as he was practicing on how he will give the present to her but it turned out that he has unintentionally done it in front of Maria which ultimately forces Hayate to give up the gift to her. After all this, Ayumu shows herself to Hayate and due to the uneasiness of what escalated, Hayate tells Ayumu to come back to the park later so he could give her something. Hinagiku also found out what happened after they crossed paths at the park and as a result, she introduced Hayate to a small cafe in which he eventually was able to make his White Day cookies and give them to Ayumu expressing his gratitude to her for taking care of him over the time they have known each other.

Later, Ayumu decided to take a part time job at that same cafe. By coincidence, Nagi and Hayate happen to work there too. As night approaches, she met Hinagiku, who said that she has something urgent to tell to Ayumu.

Before Golden Week

Before the start of Golden Week vacation, she discovered that Hayate along with Nagi and Maria, will be going to Mykonos Isalnd, Greece. She also discovered that a quiz bee is to be hosted by the Asakaze family with the prize of a ticket to Mykonos Island which she decided to participate without hesitating.[1] When the quiz was about to start, Fumi Hibino, who happened to be one of the participants, was the first to present a correct answer to the first question which is under the subject of Mathematics. Ayumu eventually won the quiz and goes with Hinagiku along with The Hakuou Three Amiga to Turkey then, eventually, to Mykonos Island. During her stay at Mykonos Island, Hayate saw her emerge out of a pool of water naked (as they were lost in a labyrinth) and due to great embarrassment from what had happened, she later attempted to explain that it is not a strange habit of hers.

Enjoying The Trip With Everyone

The next day, Ayumu somewhat saves Hayate and took the King's Jewel back from Sonia. Later, Ayumu kisses Hayate. Then Ayumu and the others go to Athens, she went various landmarks of Greece and the Greek National Museum with Nagi and others. On the final night when Hinagiku tells her that Hayate loves someone other than the both of then Ayumu comforts her and tells her not to give up. She enjoyed the trip and heads back to Japan with everyone.
