One of the best Slice of life animes I have seen in quite a while. They could have wrapped up episode 12 instead of having episode 13 as a bonus though. Perhaps spending 2 minutes to wrap up, then having the bonus portion would have been better.

Well, I hope to see season 2 in another year or two!

Actually they had a nice way way to wrap it. Adding some dialogues between Hayato and 8man, for example. Something like a set of one on one conversations between different characters would've been nice. There's no problem in setting proper ocassions for such thungs to happen. It doesn't demand additional content. But it could've been a nice ending. People here who think that complaining about ending = complaining about undeveloped romance miss the point. It's not about romance - it's about the subtle witty touch on many topics the show've demonstrated. And there's nothing of the kind in the last episode :( It totally stands out in a notorious way.
Now i give the 9/10 to show only because i don't consider ep.13 to be its part. But some people do and i can't really blame them.


Not about romance..? it's in the title and genre.. what are you talking about..?

Sorry, but i have a habbit to judge the show by its content not by some stupid stereotypes about "what the show in the genre should be like". Anime show is fisrt of all the piece of art. Genre is a label we give it. Piece of art is not about how much it fits into the label. It's about the ideas it has and the way it delievers them and dwells on them. I'm a little bit of captain obvious here, yeah.

Solid anime overall. And technically Hachiman showed more love to Saika than the two girls, so if he ends up with one of them them in later seasons; I'm gonna class it as a shameless bait-and-switch. :/



Also I really liked Zaimokuza this ep. He should have had more screen time.

Gundam F? The gundam reference was from G Gundam since Master Asia is a character from G Gundam and his common phrase from his martial arts school is "The East is burning red!" Hopefully thats what your talking about? lol... great show and glad someone caught the reference! :D

Is it the first time we see the eyes of the two characters wearing glasses?
So MAL finally starts locking news threads that are only a few weeks old?

I wonder where was the announcement of this change? Or we are seeing yet another case of changes made that impacted users but not communicated to them?

I wonder how long people would put up with this.

As much as I have a bunch of information to share about anime announced recently I cannot share it in news board, and the anime series is too disorganized and chaotic to share information except with people already interested in the particular series.

Pretty sure thats Saber Lily they're cosplaying as.

Anyways this series has always been on my top since episode one and im glad it didnt disappoint one bit. All of the characters are really likable and their conversations were really enjoyable. I love Hachiman's self-sacrificial attitude and his dialogues on how he views the world. Yukinon's cold demeanor attitude suits her so well and i just love her retorts to hachiman. Yui is just wonderful, she's just what the rest of the cast are missing, a character to liven up the whole group.

The Seiyuus they had for this series is awesome. Hayami Saori fits the cold Yukinon and the lively Nao Touyama fits Yui to the T.

However the thing i enjoyed most is of course the character designs. They were so well drawn and im in love with all of the characters design so much, especially the 3 main.

I'll definitely give the LN a try and heres to hoping for a season 2. 10/10

My favorite anime ended.. I will miss it so much! I WANT ANOTHER SEASON NOW! THEN ANOTHER!!! AND ANOTHER UNTIL I DIE! Cough...

Stealth Hachiman was awesome. Didn't look like an original episode at all. They did a great job. My Ebina was OOC though. Still Loved her so much and glad people are liking her now. Geez guys if you hated it that much then why give it a 5?

The ending song was re-sung but I still loved it equally. Loved how fast it got suddenly. Amazing series!

10/10. Nuff, said.

Genius anime don't need length of comment to show how much good these actually are.

Give me a 2nd season, please!

Yea I enjoyed this episode as well. And to me it looked like an opening for a second season but its gonna be a while until we can find out. I would not mind some development between the three characters if there is gonna be a second season.

Anyways enjoyed the whole series 8/10 for me. They talked pretty fast so reading the subs for me was a bit difficult at times hehe.

Loved this anime! I do hope they make a sequel. But good shows hardly ever get sequels. :/

This episode so was so full of fun. At least we didn't have to see anything downing and what more, it was refreshing to know that their lives will remain festive, that's probably the only positive thing Hikigaya said about life in the entire anime!

Will miss both Yui and Yukino. Two of the most beautifully depicted female characters in recent slice of life genre anime. :)

5/5 for the episode and the overall rating remains 9/10 because of episode 12. :)

Sadly, this was the worst episode of the series. They manage bring up Zaimokuza and Ebina to the front page - but sacrificed tons of important development that was supposed happen in the last 3 episodes. Even though I do think script writing from this series was godly, this episode was surely a waste - just having 6 volume as an ending of the series should've been muuuuuuuuuuuch better.

Why can't people see that OreGairu's and HaMaou's last episode are not finale because they want to make a way for season two? I'm sure most of the studios have learnt how to milk a series...And I believe in Brains Base and White Fox (hopefully). Seeing both series' popularity, they are bound to get another season.... The only problem is the lack of material, I'm sure they will get another season in 2-3 years T.T or when the novels ended.

It's clear this episode was just a filler, which helped to lighten up the mood for the ending of the series.

However, Oregairu has gained a special place in my favourites, as well as introducing me to one of my most favourite characters around. An excellent series and, to me, the best in this season.

9/10 would watch again.

P.S. hoping for a second season in the future.

And thus another boring highschool anime ends without offering anything significant to anyone.

I can't understand why it gets 10/10s 9/10s and 8/10s for everywhere.
The Presentation was hardly average, it had absolutely NO story and the characters besides Hachiman were just plain retarded.

Probably the most Overrated anime of the season.

People who give this 10/10 probably don't understand what a masterpiece is and have probably never seen an atleast good looking anime, or an anime with an actual story.

HARDLY average is right (I suggest you check up the meaning of "Hardly") - the presentation is brilliant and the skilfully done. The story of the development of relationship between characters is clear. And the use of words like "retarded" only make you look retarded yourself LOL

Hey, hey, gaiz, remember how a few pages ago I said that not everyone would "get" this show? Yeah, good times.

How about we respect everyone's opinion, positive or negative, and not let other people's opinions sway our own views on this show (and other things in life).
Some people liked it and understood it, some people liked it but didn't understand it, some people did understand it but didn't like it and then there were those that didn't understand it and therefore didn't like it.

From what I've seen, most of the people that have voted this show poorly fall in the last category. Now, hold on, before you ready your fingers to type out a well structured three page response filled with arguments about how you're special and extremely intelligent and that you did get the show and that you thought it was terrible because so and so, I implore you to not do that. No one cares. You didn't like the show. Fine. I'm not writing this comment to rile people up or anything. I'm not insulting your intelligence or your interpretation skills. I just want everyone to behave in a... fairly civil manner. This goes out to the fanboys of this show as well. Just because someone doesn't like this show, doesn't mean you have to defend it to death and hurl insults at others. Just realize that in life there will always be someone with a different opinion than you about something. Just let it go.

The reason why I think people will have a problem with actually letting it go is because Hachiman is a perfect example of a self-insert character (because of how realistic he is). Some people will feel that when you insult/demean Hachiman (or the show), you're actually personally attacking their life experiences as well (because they can relate to them). So yeah, there's not a whole lot I can do about that, other than say ... let's try and get along, shall we?

However, with that said, people who don't like this show, do not make claims such as: the characters aren't interesting or developed, nothing happened, there was no story etc. Such claims are false.

From episode 3-4, I already knew that this show's greatest strength and weakness would be that it's EXTREMELY subtle. You need to pay attention to facial expressions, body language, think about double meanings behind certain lines/actions etc. in order to "get" why certain things are happening and why certain characters are behaving the way they are behaving.

It is revealed that Yukino lies. In what other instances has she told lies? (for instance in episode 7, near the end, when Yukino and Hikki are talking about that Rumi girl and how she reminds her of Yui. Wait, just Yui? Doesn't she remind you of yourself as well, Yukino? Why aren't you saying this? Or what about when Hachiman asks what her relation to Hayato is and she answers that their only connection is that their parents blabla. Is that really all there is to it?)

Hachiman also lies a few times, mostly to himself (in order to justify him not wanting to get close to people, so that he can't get hurt). The problem is the story is told from his point of view, so we assume that everything he tells is the absolute truth. But is it though?

There's a lot of speculation possible about certain characters and what their deal is. Like for instance Haruno and Hayato. We obviously don't know yet, because their story hasn't been told, but there's certainly depth to these characters.

This isn't a show where everything is handed to you on a platter. You have to actively connect the dots and rewatch certain scenes, paying close attention to detail.
There's no forced drama or forced exposition... or characters over reacting about their feelings etc. Sure there are scenes focusing on Totsuka and that girl that likes gay stuff etc (mostly for the sake of humor), but that's not what the core of the story is. It saddens me when I read people's comments and the only thing they picked up on is... lol that trap... super kawaii desu.

*deep internet breath*

There's also a lot of foreshadowing.

For instance, in the tennis match episode, remember how Yukino told Hachiman not to go join the tennis club because everyone would turn against him (also because she didn't want him to leave their club, because she hadn't "fixed" him yet)? Remember what happened in episodes 10 to 12? Yeah, bet you didn't make that connection.

Or how about in episode 2, where Yumiko asks people to go out with her to get ice cream or whatever. Did you notice how at first Hayato declines? But, oh, what's that, Yui and Yumiko suddenly started talking about Yukino. Wait, suddenly Hayato wants to go along with Yumiko? Why could that be?

And there are a ton of these little things spread out throughout the show.
So please, do not say that nothing happened. You just didn't pick up on them.

Which is fine, because maybe you weren't that interested or whatever.

So, with that said, Imma post an incredibly obnoxious TL;DR line and I apologize in advance, but it is the first thing that comes to mind when I read some of the comments posted here and when I look at shows you guys have given high ratings.

TL;DR - People giving this show a vote below 6 are doing so because: not enough forced drama, forced romance, forced character development, X-ploshuns and kamehameha spam.
