Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Comedy wa Machigatteiru. · Re-reading 18/168 ・ Scored 9
My love for Oregairu changed. The love doesn't stem from my past where I heavily gravitated toward Hachiman and Yukino as mere projections of myself. More so, it's a retrospection after a long-awaited revisit of the series. Knowing the story and its messages front and back gave me a new perspective on what Wataru was trying to express. I see bits and pieces of my past self in these characters and although it's exaggerated to an enormous degree, those aspects were still true. It's the self-retrospection that I got from experiencing this amazing story through both the anime and light novels that I was able to see the point at the end of the journey.

Although it's cringe to say, Oregairu was a story that impacted me early on in my years and it's a story that I grew up with as I see how the characters morphed and changed just like I did. While I do admit its shortcomings, it still doesn't deteriorate the such profound experiences and emotions that this series exhibited.

I was and always will love Oregairu.
