    Episode 11 - HS



    - -- - ----




    Nothing happened in this episode. That's quite a good summary of it. Aside from people strangely trying to decide their future based on what their high school mates are planning to do. I never saw anything like that in RL. Felt quite unrealistic.

    Iroha seems to enjoy sticking to Hachiman, yet she's still all over Hayato. I guess poor Hachiman is getting some kind of safe guy treatment.

    No it isn't. I know several people from my high school batch that followed their love interests into college (that are below their academic level). Those didn't work out, but they certainly exist. Maybe it is more of an Asian thing? I believe a lot of the cultural and relationship dynamics tackled by this show are rather Asian, much like Hayato's family dictated lifestyle and future.

    Right. I keep forgetting I shouldn't judge stuff in anime based on my own values. It's an alien culture in Japan, after all.

    Dunno. He's momentarily very easily embarrassed and impressed by attention from cute girls. But given a little time afterwards, he has convinced himself nothing happened or even that something negative happened.

    Am I the only one rooting for IrohasuXHachiman? It seems he would be happiest with her.

    I'm rooting for Yui. I'm annoyed by Iroha because she seeks help, support (and company) from Hachiman all the time, yet keeps on prattling about the dream boy Hayama endlessly. Even if she ended up with Hachiman, it would always carry the feeling she gave up on her real dream and settled for a lesser man (in her opinion) because he was easily available. Quite unfair for Yui who wanted Hachiman and Hachiman only from the beginning. Yui is also an airhead in a cute way. And she's bloody hot.

    Nah, that thing might happen in every culture/country. At least I think/hope so, because kids don't think about their future that much. At least I didn't. And what you learn in Highschool barely matters anyway even if you want to go to college. But since the school-system is different in many countries, that might be different.

    Back then, I went with what I could do best (if I remember correctly thats what 8man did?).. not with what I wanted to do and whenever I had to choose between 2 things I don't really care about, I chose the one where my friends went to.

    Well, the schoolsystem in Germany is a joke anyway. I didn't go much, faked illness - you know, like the stupid kid I was back then, wanted to play WoW and stuff (missed over 300+ hours in a year or so) and managed to get ~3.3 Abitur (which is really bad!) if I remember correctly, oddly enough - according to wiki, thats ,approximately to the US system, still a B-.

    Just how easy is it to get good notes in the US? Odd. If someone would ask me what a 2.3 is, i'd say a B or B-, not A-. Totally different topic I know.. will shut up now.

    Btw, how did Hachiman manage to fall like that? Is he 4 years old or a male dojikko? Or is it something neurological? A sing of Parkinson's? That was a stupid plot device.

    During the marathon? He was pushing himself way past his limit. People trip when they do that. It's happened to me before, and I'm no dojikko.

    Just started and finished watching this series, and I enjoyed the heck out it which surprised me. The second season I didn't like as much though, but whatever. Thought it was well done overall.

    Guess the question comes, where to go from here? Ended in kinda of a cliffhanger situation. As I'm noticing, most discussion threads have ended a few episodes prior to the last episode, guess no one cares to elaborate on how shows ended.

    Haven't watched the last OVA though, should do so shortly.

    There was hardly any resolution, and the author makes his character exposition very... dense, leaving many plot elements open to interpretation. Last I heard, it had almost caught up to the novels, so another season was a ways off.

    Yeah, that's what I saw... like we're all caught up.

    Funny, if you see the Student Council from the other school and their vagueness on just about every subject and how they go round and round is a perfect parallel to describe how the 2nd season went. A lot of vagueness.

    But whatever, still enjoyed it plenty and hoping for more eventually.

    By the powers of my mighty Necro!

    No news on more adaptation, but I just now got around to watching the OVA, and if you wanted a pinch more SNAFU, I would highly recommend this basically lost episode:

    Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. Zoku - OVA

    It makes me a little sad, actually, because I am now firmly certain this is my favorite rom-com anime, and being with these characters a little bit longer is bitter sweet.

    oh sweet, since the translator I liked stopped after the anime overtook the LN I was actually dying to know how it'll end.

    This is cool. Hikki has been one of my favorite MCs for a while now.

    This is good news. One series from the past I don't mind continuing to watch. At least as long as Iroha isn't the winning girl.

    I remember something, like the characters. I also remember that shameless Iroha, who keeps exploiting Hachiman's kindness, yet is in love with another dude (I think it was Hayato).
