I have mixed feelings. I thought the show did some things really well, but I still didn't come away liking it that much.

Also, is there enough LN material for a new season already?

Here is someone that basically judged a series by the first episode, baffled by its popularity, and in the end just misses out. Your loss.

If it's going to be at the same pace as the first season, then no, there is not enough material to adapt.
But if they slow the pace a little or even return those stand alone chapters from the LN, like the beach/pool episode it may end up to be another great season without fillers or something.

Assuming they will return the same stuff and director the earliest we will see the new season at the autumn, since the director is working at I.G. in the summer for Ao Haru Ride.

I somehow think like that too. It had some annoying and boring moments. Still, that cruel analysis of social behavior is enough to make me watch :D

...
There is actually more source material than you'd think as they used a chapter out of novel 6.25 for episode 13 and a chapter out of novel 7.5 for the OVA but they have the rest of novels 6.25, 6.5, 6.75, 7, the rest of 7.5, 8, and 9 comes out on Friday which is when they were going to be announcing it. If the greenlight is just being announced now they might not make it for 6 months or longer which is more than enough time for volumes 10 and 11 to come out. 6.25 (.25), 6.5 (.5), 6.75(.5), 7, 7.5 (.75), 8, 9, 10, 11 would be a lot of material, about 7 novels worth, actually more than the first season. So they could even just go after 10 comes out for the same amount of material.

Wataru Watari is a great writer, he could just write it all as they're making it. He was writing novels 6.25-8 all at the same time while the anime was coming out, while working on the PS Vita game. He's a workaholic like Nisioisin (who is writing 3 novel series at the same time, at least one 400 page novel/month).

Since there's still no date announced, I assume they're gonna release volume 10 to have sufficient material for the 2nd season.

Oh, thanks for the info, didn't read much of the Light novel after the anime ended so I didn't knew about those .25 .5 .75 volumes.

It's not that rare for novelist in Japan to work like that, Kamachi Kazuma working on 4 series at the same time, Ryohgo Narita also working on 4 series at the same time, and just like Watari and Nisio, in my opinion, those four are the best writes together with Minoru Kawakami.

I have somewhat of the same feeling. I thought the show was great but it was a bit......depressing(?), I guess.

Or maybe it was because 8man was always getting the short end of the stick. Still excited for a second season though.

I hope the show will actually go somewhere now. The first season was entertaining, it was one of the more enjoyable shows with harem elements, but it just didn't go anywhere.

Am I the only one who wanted Hachiman to change? I mean, I liked him, but everybody seems to like him for his emo/depressed/I hate the world/the world hates me attitude. Which is understandable, and relatable (especially to a bunch of anime nerds). But, he wasn't exactly happy. In fact, he was quite miserable. I like his character because he feels real and very sympathetic, not because of his (at times glorified) depression. I want him to eventually drop the immature angsty begrudging outlook on life, and actually grow and develop as a person.

The show was set up to do that, having him make friends, become more involved, etc. But it seems like the fanbase wants none of it. I remember somebody on here in one of the episode discussions saying something like "if he changes, he won't be interesting as a character any more". Which I found puzzling, because I find him interesting not because of generic teenage angst, but because I was actually emotionally invested in his character, and cared about his potential development. I wanted to see him happy. My interest was literally held by the promise of character development. Having his attitude remain static (which ended up happening at the end of the first season), is the most disappointing thing possible. Yes, even more disappointing than the fact that the romance went nowhere as well. Maybe that's just me though...

Anyway, I have very high expectations for this.
