sup guys, I just wanted to share why I firmly believe there is no prospect of a season two of this show.

The reason is quite simple really, from the episode that's just aired (episode 7), Kanda Ao, the ex-girlfriend of Yoshida was only displayed as a picture, and according to Hige wo Soru's author's twitter, Kanda Ao will not be making a physical entrance into the show.

This, changes, EVERYTHING. I'm not like angry about this decision, but it's common knowledge that if you are going to alter the original story in such a way which basically deletes one of the main girls in the original source, you cannot make a season two because it'll be somewhat of a domino effect. What you change in one season, will impact hard on a sequel season, and harder on the sequel to that, and so on.

I think a good example of this is the Classroom of the Elite anime. From what I have heard, the story of that show had been changed so much, it's to the point that doing a sequel will be an extremely different to the original source, thus probability of it happening is almost nil. I see that effect happening with this show too probably.

But what are your thoughts? Do you think Kanda Ao's (ex-gf of Yoshida if y'all forgot) deletion from the anime is major to the point a sequel is of zero chance? I seem to think so.

LN readers said that the omission of the senpai was for the better, because she only served the purpose of showing how Yoshida was when he was Sayu's age.
I also think that S2 will never happen, because this season will cover the whole 5 LN volumes.

isn’t the final volume of the light novel going to be released soon? I mean, I think they are going to have an anime original ending.

Doesn't seem like one will be necessary, at this rate.

Not sure I'd be looking forward to another season of the Social Justice Army crying with conviction about things they demonstrably know nothing about anyway.

it will likely be the same ending. Last volume releases june 1st and the show will probably adapt it in the last 2-3 episodes.

It won’t happen 100%.
Ep. 9 will be about Sayu past which is at the beginning of vol.4 (LN) so prolly episodes 12-13 (maybe a part also in ep.11) will cover volume 5.

They already planned to adapt all volume of the LN in one Season so there won't any second Season and due to time constraints unfortunately Kanda will not make an appearance in the Anime.

I think it's refreshing that they will possibly wrap the whole thing in one season and if some fat needs trimming well so be it..

They are racing through it and have missed so many things that would give the characters a bit more background, it was clear they were going to finish it in one season after the first 2 or 3 episodes.

I think the ex girlfriend changes the dynamic a bit for Sayu, Gotou and Mishima and focuses Yoshida's mind somewhat. But she probably doesn't change the ending. What manga and LN readers know now is that she is definitely not going to be the winner. But that was always obvious anyway.

Mishima has a rant about there being too much competition and that sequence can't be in the anime anymore. I think a 2nd season or a long single season would have been nice, it does feel a bit rushed, but it doesn't change too much so it's no big problem.

There are good trolls, and if they exist, how likely is it that one will appear to me? (lol)

Wait a moment...
Are you saying they're not going to adapt the anime from the last LN releasing at June 1st of this year?
I'm confused!

"Good trolls"? No. But some of them put more effort into it than others, to an (almost) respectable degree. Then there are shit-tier trolls like this guy who put in less effort than a kid in the back of a high middle school classroom making farts with their armpits.

That was obvious once the author said Volume 5 was the last volume and the speed they'd adapted Volumes 1 & 2.

Episode 8 "Festival" will definitely finish Volume 3 now they've chopped AO out.

That leaves 5 episodes for Volumes 4 & 5 - with the big reveal about Sayu's past probably being episode 9, the fallout of that being the remaining episodes.

The only issue with cutting Kanda Ao out is the additional internal monologues for Yoshida over how he relates to people and how that affects his relationship with Sayu, Gotou and Mishmina (As he quickly bins off AO anyway).

HigeHiro doesn't have enough material source to do a second season. The LN will have only 5 volumes.
They could squeeze the rest of the third volume in the 8th episode, the 9th and 10th episode, considered from its title, it could be the adaptation from the fourth volume of LN, then the 11th-13th episode will be from the final volume, the fifth volume. Or, they could mash up the fourth and fifth volume of LN in the 9th-13th episodes.
