After I watched this episode 3 times, I still don't get this part.



I mean, why Yukinon doesn't reject any Sagami's demand? How about sharing their work alongside with the team leader? This ending made me a bit sad. Can anyone shares their thought about this scene? :D

I think she is too hard on herself after she failed Hikki. And she also might chase after Haruno shadows.

This episode has so much tension.

First of all, I like how most characters got a little bit of screen time.
Second, I feel sorry for Yui for being in the middle of this mess.
Third, the number of stickers outside the club room is increasing!

Sagami pisses me off for some reason.
And Haruno is starting to annoy me.

I like how Hachiman tried to protect Yukino. But Yukino's being too hard on herself.

I hope the next episode releases some tension.

My thoughts are the following:
In the beginning, Yukino did not want to assume the chairman position. Maybe it's because she didn't want to deal with so many people. Maybe it's because she didn't want to copy her sister (Ohh how annoying that Stuco president was...) She wanted to let other people handle the festival.
However, now that Sagami volunteered for the position, the situation has changed - Sagami assumed the chairman position.
Of course, Yukino knows that all the 'improve myself' nonsense was a flat-out lie. But more importantly, she is fully aware of the fact that Sagami is lazy and incompetent. She will screw up big time and the festival will become a disaster.
But Yukino can avert that if she joins in and takes the lead. She is confident that she is up to the task. In fact, she is could manage the biggest part all by herself. That would be the best and most efficient solution, so she thinks.

That aside, during the whole episode, I somehow got the feeling that Yukino is punishing herself. That she is willingly walking a way of self-destruction, probably due to her conflict with Hachiman. That's just a gut feeling though.

I'd imagine she pisses you off because she's detestable. She's just pushing all of the work onto Yukino and being a bitch to her when she gets any kind of recognition for her effort and good sense.

I wonder why Haruno's like that with Yukino. I suppose we might find out in the next couple of episodes.

@Naoki-Saten I'd say the reason she's having to push herself is partly down to the lax attitude Sagami had towards the workload; telling people to relax before a massive event isn't exactly an approach that yields results.

Sagami is probably not the only pathetic character here, the student council president is also as pathetic as she is. I'm thinking that Yukino is pretending to call in sick so that everyone else in the preparation committee will get their assess moving.

I would think it's more likely that she's actually sick. as a result of the pressure building from other people's lack of work ethic.

Both versions are possible.

Yukino might have truly overworked herself. Additionally, the comitee kind of 'rejected' her by telling her to share her workload. They questioned her principles, which is a form of indirect rejectioin. That amount of mental pressure could have overwhelmed Yukino and made her sick.

On the other hand, it IS possible that Yukino just pretends to be sick in order to help Sagami 'grow as a person'. Remember what Yukino's principle of 'helping someone' is? She doesn't solve the problem. She helps the client solve the problem with his own power. Sagami is now forced to take action. If she manages to handle the situation, she will have grown as a person. If not, she'll get her well-deserved punishment for trying to use Yukino for her own convenience.

Thank you guys for your thought. I'm just wondering what Yukinon was thinking when she said ごめんなさい (Gomennasai). Are this apology is for:

1. Everyone in this festival committee for not trying to share their work with each other.

2. 8man, for keeping a lie on him (regarding with the accident)

3. Herself, as it is like "I'm sorry everyone, but for the sake of festival success, I will do my work myself"

That is my thought.

Alright alright, I get it. Though that method would prove effective no matter the outcome, 'pretending' and 'deception' are not Yukino's weapons of choice.

Re-watched the episode. Goddamn, Sagami is as bad as you guys said she was. She punishes Yukino for being better than her by unloading all of the work onto her, and then she slacks off. And the sister isn't any better by taking advantage of the situation to promote her bad. Horrible people...

But i still wonder if her sister should be considered the good elder sister or the bad elder sister.

At the festival she seemed to care about her sister, hoping Hachiman and
Yui dont abandon her like her friends before ( story line?).

But in this episode she tries to kinda bully her, forcing her to stay in her shadow, and to take care of everyone elses work. Although its obviously that Yukino wants to be independent from her sister and the expectations of everyone due to being Harunos little sister.

Im looking forward to watching the next episode, i want to see how Hachiman solves this situation.

Yeah she is a bitch and Yukino's sister is a Asshole as well, she seems to want to ruin her sister. The chairman so annoying and clearly is a terrible person. That said it was a good episode and Hikki once again does his best to help.
If strength is justice, then is powerlessness a crime?

It might be unlikely but perhaps the band is an excuse for her to be at the cultural festival and she wants to be at the cultural festival to watch over Yukino and make sure she's okay?

I wouldn't necessarily look to Hachiman for the solution, one of the reasons that Oregairu is a good anime is because the other characters actually resolve situations by themselves. There are a fair few situations where Hachiman's done next to nothing and all was well. It's one of the reasons I like him as a protagonist. He's nothing like the archetypal protagonist.

Yeah, real life. Where people don't get called on the shit that they pull. Oregairu is a fair bit more realistic than your average anime. Reckon it would've turned out well if it were shot Aku no Hana style?

Actualy rather than realistic I woud call it Satirical instead. For example it's not like anyone experienced EVERY SINGLE of Hachimans fails. But exactly because Satira is about real life makes it so popular genre.

I suppose you could consider the series to be a satirical take on social norms. The author certainly enjoys satire in his writing. It has a very distinctive feel to it.

Thank you guys for your thought. I'm just wondering what Yukinon was thinking when she said ごめんなさい (Gomennasai). Are this apology is for:

1. Everyone in this festival committee for not trying to share their work with each other.

2. 8man, for keeping a lie on him (regarding with the accident)

3. Herself, as it is like "I'm sorry everyone, but for the sake of festival success, I will do my work myself"

That is my thought.

Why not all of them?
Apologizez are not that important for Hikki because he doesnt expect such things.It feels better to have no expectation from someone or something and be surprised than having expectation and be disappointed or,in case of succes,not be surprised because you expected that.
Atleast,for me,apologizez are not important as long you act like you want to make it up or simply act as nothing happened,it's better that way,both persons acknowledge it and know what to do to avoid repeating it.In fact you'd annoy me if you apologize to me instead of trying to fix it or atleast act like nothing happen,forget about it and start over.If I can forget about it and forgive you I expect from you to forget about it too,that's how it works for me.If I act like nothing happened it should be understood that automatically it means I forgave you and forgot about it.
Apologizes are just words that mean nothing,whats done is done it wont fix a damned thing,and I doubt Hikki is that sensible to need an apologize.

Entertaining episode!!!

This show is really getting better and there was a lot of tension in this episode with some funny scenes. I knew something bad was going to happen when Sagami was voted as Chairman and I was right as she really did force the work on Yukino at the end putting all the responsibility on her. I was surprised that Haruno would go that far indirectly supporting her as she is trying to put quite a lot of work and pressure on her but I wonder what her target is and why is she doing this. Most of the cast in this show also had at least a little bit of screen-time which is good to see.

On the other hand, Hikigaya seems to notice this and seems to be confused on what he should do but Yui encourages him to help Yukino with everything he can do. That play role acting scene was funny and Ebina and her BL theory makes me laugh so much. Seems like Yukino has fallen sick due to the pressure and I understand how hard is to organize and do everything yourself as it's very impractical but you really feel sorry for Yukino especially at times like this so I wonder how Hikigaya and Yui will respond. Good to see Hayato going out of his way to help the committee.

Looking forward to the next episode!!

5/5

Another theory could be, that everything is just a friggin master plan of Yukinos sister to get her and Hachiman closer to each other (hoping for it)

I suppose, you can see that the way everyone is treating Yukino is bothering him so I can see him doing something.
That would be an interesting turn of events. I do like Yukino and Hachiman together. That said, a fair few people are speculating about the possibility of a second season which would be excellent.

Great episode. I hope that one girl stop talk about Haru-san this and that. And I like the title match with the content this episode. Their distance is grow & grow larger but I'm sure that Hachima will have a sure fire way to fix their relationship or at least redo their relationship.

Although I would like to hear more epic 8man monologues, hes the MC after all and as the genre is called Romance... If you know what mean.


Absolutely, if you enjoy his monologues you should have a look at the Light Novels, only the first chapter is out of Baka-Tsuki at the moment but it definitely feels like Hachiman, I would recommend it.

@ReverseReality I totally see that, easy mistake to make with the name, with SnK out at the moment.
Hachikuji: Araragi-san, you don't look even the least bit apologetic. You should at least say something after touching a girl's delicate chest!
Araragi: *Clueless look* Thanks?

But i still wonder if her sister should be considered the good elder sister or the bad elder sister.

At the festival she seemed to care about her sister, hoping Hachiman and
Yui dont abandon her like her friends before ( story line?).

But in this episode she tries to kinda bully her, forcing her to stay in her shadow, and to take care of everyone elses work. Although its obviously that Yukino wants to be independent from her sister and the expectations of everyone due to being Harunos little sister.

Im looking forward to watching the next episode, i want to see how Hachiman solves this situation.

//edit: @PoeticJustice , Trust me I am an Angelneer.


It might be unlikely but perhaps the band is an excuse for her to be at the cultural festival and she wants to be at the cultural festival to watch over Yukino and make sure she's okay?

I would necessarily look to Hachiman for the solution, one of the reasons that Oregairu is a good anime is because the other characters actually resolve situations by themselves. There are a fair few situations where Hachiman's done next to nothing and all was well. It's one of the reasons I like him as a protagonist. He's nothing like the archetypal protagonist.

But the point is, there is a small development of his person, so Im sure that he will play an important role in the next episode.
Another theory could be, that everything is just a friggin master plan of Yukinos sister to get her and Hachiman closer to each other (hoping for it)


I suppose, you can see that the way everyone is treating Yukino is bothering him so I can see him doing something.

Well, his attitude and his monologues were the reason I started watching this anime. Although the idea of the outstanding lonely, sarcastic main character (antihero) isnt new, hes one character I dont want to miss.

@xDepiC I would say that Hachiman's a pretty unique character, I can't think of that many characters who shun the idea of friends to the extent he does. Most of the sarcastic social outcasts do want friends but are incapable of making them... cue a harem.

So you want to point out, that Hachiman would be able to make friends himself? This reminds me of a scene in one previous episode, where he describes himself as attractive and smart ( well, idk how the standarts are settled in this anime, but to me he looks average). With this abilities , It should be easy to make friends, normally.
Hmmpf, I just realize what a controversial character Hachiman is...

Let's take a look at his monologue:

"What Hayama and Meguri said wasn't wrong in any way. Amazing. I'm moved to tears. Such wonderful camaraderie.
But really, is it bad to do things by yourself? Why does someone who worked her socks off, even by herself, have to be rejected here?
I will not let that happen."

Nobody had any bad intentions by offering Yukino help. But that proposal is also a form of rejection. Yukino does things her own way. She does all the work by herself because she believes that's the best method. By telling her to stop doing everything by herself, they deny her ideal and therefore deny Yukino herself. So by accepting help, Yukino would accept the denial. She would step down on her ideal. It would be the same as giving up and surrender her ideals.

Hachiman didn't want her to give up. So after he went out of his way to try and stop her, yet she still accepted the help, she apologized. I think she apologized because she knew Hachiman was supporting her, yet she still chose to give up.

He has a different outlook to most people and the way he acts seems to deter people from wanting to be around him. Apart from Yui, obviously.

Some people just aren't very good at being around other people, Hachiman's one of them. He doesn't find it easy to get along.

He is an odd looking character when you look at his eyes and he is smart, from what I can tell in that he's very savvy at understanding social dynamics, etc.

Stake dull and depressing, but well told, the narrative did not bet to exaggerate or exaggerate situations, but it has created a great feeling with the viewer, in particular way in relation to the Sagami "sgallettata"! Plot that despite having prepared the ground for future events, can re-enter the character of Saki and entertain us with Hina! Shame not to have a technical sector worthy! I hope we can do better with the BD version! * _ *

This show becomes more boring each episode... if it wouldn't end soon I think i'd drop it.
