Boku wa Tomodachi Sukunai

[vejita613]

You know, before this episode, I all but hated Yozora. I really didn't care much for how she treated some of the others, especially Sena and Maria. I kind of forgave Senas case since a) it kept her from becoming too full of herself and b) well...it was funny. Maria on other hand, I couldn't quite understand until now. I don't know why it took me so long to realize that she can be a real brat at times. So, I guess Yozoras treatment is needed to keep her in place. I guess my point is that its easy to misjudge people until you see things from their point of view. I dare say that shes actually kind of...cute?

Overall, this series has exceeded my expectations. I came into this series looking for a good comedy. While I didn't find it as funny as the manga, it surpassed it on every other level. Really though, I felt this series could have been a bit longer as some things felt rushed and there was good material left out. Still though, I had to drop several series this season due to various reasons, but I'm glad I didn't drop this.

I really enjoyed this series. I hope it gets a second season. In the meantime, I might have to seek out the novel translations.

I also recommend the manga, especially if you can't get a hold of the LN. Atleast the first. There's another one called "Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai Plus" which has him meet Sena first and they are the ones that start the club. Its OK so far (it only has three chapters), but I seem to enjoy the original storyline better.

Somehow, you misspelled Vexed Scans. Baka-Tsuki is using their translation.

somehow you completely misread what he posted

I enjoyed this show and I'm so happy it didn't turn out to be Taka x Sora just because they met 10 years ago. That would've been lame

It's too soon to say that yet. He was obviously affected by learning that Yozora was his very close friend from years ago. Yozora is trying to display that the past is past and that she wants to move on because he confused her intentions years ago. Combined with her failed "confession" as a result of her being too shy to show off her girl clothes and then him moving away. It is extremely likely that Yozora remains hurt that he took so long to remember her, and is playing it tsuntsun, after that brief glimmer of dere mode. The flashback showing their first meeting from her point of view showed that pretty well. Her shyness keeps backfiring on her, so she's going cold and mean as a means to cover it.

Kodaka is going to keep seeing Yozora in a different light from now on. With the right momentum, it might be inevitable. I guess it really only depends on whether Yozora gets over her shyness and begins to more actively pursue him instead of sticking to the roundabout plan of keeping him near her. No matter how hard Sena may try to break the chain, it's an uphill battle for her now.

We need a second season so that we can get a conclusion.

[KrayZ33]

I don't think her shyness is keeping them apart at the moment
in my opinion, she is .. well,"dissappointed"
she confronted him with the truth and his reaction has been pretty much "whatever"
they both know they are not at the same level as they were 10 years ago, which is why she doesn't want him to call her Sora.

sure, they'll eventually end up together, but keeps my spirit high (I'm rooting for Taka x Sena) is that Taka didn't turn 180° and fell in love with her right after the "secret" has been solved.
The fact that he thought of her as a "boy" back then is probably also a reason why that isn't the case here

Also, Sora was a boy, and Yozora would now very much prefer Taka to consider her a proper girl.

Quite a nice series all in all. Like has been said, Yozora gained much in this episode, and on the other hand this episode had Sena show her worst qualities instead of the better ones she has usually shown Taka during the show. I was a heavy Sena shipper earlier but if this show ever intends to continue, I wouldn't anymore be so sure. One thing that doesn't change, though, is that Kobato was a delightful character.

[Buffalobiian]

Just marathoned this. Didn't expect to laugh so much.

Rika's a good addition in the band, but I simply just can't like those types of characters no matter how useful or funny they are at moving the story along.

Sena and "Ika-chaa~n!!" Kobato ftw!

Haganai School Comedy TV Anime Gets 2nd Season

[Ryllharu]

About time. There's so much good stuff they didn't get to yet. That and I can't get enough of the crescent moon smiles art styles. Now if they would only give us another season of Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko...

They left us hanging with Kodaka realizing he and Yozora were once friends. The club reacted to it and it just cut off there.

Haganai's 2nd Season Slated for January 2013

Wow, that's kind of...fast. Animation looks alot better this time around too. How well did this do last time anyways?

Sena grabbing the flyswatter and hitting Yozora with it did not come a moment too soon. It doesn't even come close to returning the abuse she gets all the time.

Luckily she has Kobato-chan to recharge her energy with.

[Kraco]

That was some novel... I didn't expect them to go so all out, but in retrospect it certainly was fitting.

I agree on it being the high time for Sena to pay back with the flyswatter. For a moment I even thought she would lick Yozora's shoe, but fortunately it didn't happen.

[animus]

Man, I must be really immature, but I laughed the hardest in the story with all the poop.

[Ryllharu]

I gain tremendous joy from watching Maria and Kobato fight. Kobato looks 10, but is 13, and wrestles with a nun, who actually is 10. I can only imagine they'll be best friends in a year or two.

Of course, Rika's ultimate perversion robot porn was the funniest part. The tone she uses describes it comes off so graphic, and she reacts to it so perversely, but it's usually just one robot firing a beam cannon at another, with simply too much technical detail. I guess this was a reactor power transfer. She told us how she was going to satisfy herself (Code Geass Nina Style!), but god only knows what else she does in the Rika Room (the science lab).

Kodaka must have no sexual organs if he is still blind to all the loving he is constantly receiving from everyone.

I loved the rape scene the most. The monster's dick was a huge mouth nibbling on Sena's lower half AND it wasn't censored. Yeah, faved.

Love the new animation style. Much more fitting than the first season.

Also, watching Pegasus punishing Sena for her hair was very......very..............................what was I saying?
