| So I just found out (correct me if I'm wrong) that after season 2, the novel will essentially be fully adapted. So that means... no season 3?... ever????? Broooooo, just as soon as it started getting really good. It's like, are we ever gonna find out what happens between Kobato and Osanai??? Their character dynamic and chemistry were so good I gotta know what happenssss.  I haven't watched Hyouka, but I'm now starting to understand the pain Hyouka fans have to go through :) |

| so now you know my pain the pain I suffered through my teens I love hyouka so much one of my first anime and I've always waited for the green light of a new sequal but all in vain :( |

Season 2 adapted upto 5 volumes. In total there are 6 volumes so there is 1 more novel but I don't know how much of a closure it can give to you.
| @Ruthless_Lord Yea it looks like the best case scenario we'll get an OVA for volume 6 |

There's one left but that's Short stories collection. We have to wait until author writes another few volumes
| @Safuan12616 How often are volumes being released? Didn't it start publishing in 2004? |

I was going to watch "Hyouka". But does it has an open ending? Should I not watch if I don't like cliffhanger & loose endings?
| @Ruthless_Lord def u should........though it feels unfinished but it ended the right way not too little neither too much--- there is a clear difference in hyouka when comes to character writting than shoshimin despite that both are episodic and full of suspense buildiing moments but unlike shoshimin there is no ongoing plot in hyouka ....................hyouka is a nostalgia factor for me so Im very biased here. As u watch it the first time its deffinately enjoyable oh! one more thing CHITADA IS CURIOUSLY the best Girl |

Hyouka makes me feel way worse
| @RalSterdutacoS yup, now that's actual heartbreak. |
 |
| Realistically might not see another season. It takes the author roughly a decade to release 3 volumes, so there is a small chance of another season within the next 20 years. Maybe an OVA every 5 years or something. Hope the anime is popular enough to motivate the author work directly with animation studios. Even then, the story quality might drop due to time constraints. |
| Truth is absolute but human perception of truth is always relative. |
| Hyouka has manga that goes past anime material and novels are fantranslated. |
 |
| There's a feasible possibility that they'll adapt the 5th volume, which is a bunch of short stories from what I heard, into an OVA. OR they could go ahead and do an anime original movie sequel depicting their continued lives in college as a more extra-fulfilling conclusion to the series at least anime-wise. Remember that entrance exams were mentioned during this final arc, meaning that both Jogoro and Yuki are graduating really soon. The story of their high school lives is basically over, but the novel series itself is still listed as currently ongoing. |

| yep another hyouka moments, but didnt this and hyouka have the same author? |

Hyouka makes me feel way worse
| @RalSterdutacoS Don't really get why people think this way. Surely I'd LOVE to get S2, but the way S1 ended was pretty good. I mean, it's pretty clear IMO that @Ruthless_Lord I was going to watch "Hyouka". But does it has an open ending? Should I not watch if I don't like cliffhanger & loose endings? Definitely watch it. It definitely deserves continuation, but it doesn't end with cliffhanger. You, just like me and many, would simply want to enjoy the world and characters more. I've seen over 600 anime and you can bet anime has to be very special to get on my favorites list (since it's 10 fav.anime only on MAL), yet Hyouka managed to get that spot. Had it on my "plan to watch list" for years, but when I did watch it, I absolutely loved it! |

Lapin Track skipped the 5th so the adaptation already caught up to the most recent volume. It's strange you didn't realise, since the title includes 'chocolate bonbon'. |
Help! I need somebody. Help! Not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone. Helpppppp!  |
