Oregairu wasn't the same after Season 2 sadly.
First two Seasons were really something else. Oregairu Zoku was a masterpiece with so many great scenes it was so hard to beat by a mile. In the third Season, the direction went in a more romantic approach. However, it felt like the show only had the same name, but lost some of its greatness somewhere between the 5 years gap of waiting for the 3rd Season.
The same goes with this OVA. We have a continuation what happens after the finale of Season 3, but it looks like they just wanted to quickly wrap it up ... as a whole. At least I could enjoy my beloved music and some funny moments.
As a very huge fan of this show, I won't say I'm disappointed, more like a little bit sad they couldn't finish this show with the very last scene from Shin novel. To me, that was the true finale of Oregairu.

I will put it briefly: I'm not a big JoJo's fan. I only watched some moments from Stardust Crusaders and that's all.
However, Stone Ocean was beyond my expectations. Truly, one of the greatest Seasons in any anime.
Firstly, the characters were incredible. All of them. Especially Jolyne. I loved her so much, that she made it to my top 10 of characters.
Secondly, the plot was really dramatic with so many twists. I enjoyed it so much how very often I was caught off the guard.
Thirdly, the music also played the big part in making this series so good. Each time the tension ... was so much bigger thanks to the music.
All in all, final episodes from this anime were pure masterpiece. I think I'll recommend this series to everyone, who is looking for an interesting main female character and crazy, but at the same time beautiful story.

Very good and so wholesome. I remember watching first episode during summer holidays and here I am, writing my review before Christmas. First opening was great and catchy, they shouldn't have changed it. All of the characters were very likeable, especially Jahy, Manager and Kyoko. The whole story was so funny and relatable. Many times I was in Jahy's shoes, here is why I really like her character. The soundtrack was really great. I couldn't remember the time when I really fell in love with an anime, thanks to its music. The nostalgia will remains very strong with this one. From summer holidays, till winter ... holidays. Thank you, Jahy-sama. :)

Best school anime I've ever seen and I've seen so many.
To begin with, Oregairu is the only anime which I saw six times, every Christmas and in this year I will definitely see it again. The story in the second season is much better than in the first one, because of many simple reasons:
Story 10/10
From beginning to the end the story is very interesting. Favors, which were so easy and childish to do in season one, are now more complicated and hard to fulfill. Main trio is no longer as effective as it was before. What's more, Service club became a place ... where all main characters prefer to just talk about life, instead of worrying about requests. The story focuses on characters development and romance is more visible than in the first season.
Art 10/10
Another great aspect. Animation is more mature and scenery is sometimes so beautiful that I can't find the words to describe it. Perfect.
Sound 10/10
Soundtrack is without a doubt the strongest point of the series. Each track is used in a perfect place and moment. Wonderful.
Character 10/10
Hikigaya - Does anyone know better mc than him? He doesn't need any special powers or abilities. He's just an intelligent guy, who has his own philoshophy and understands people on his own way. What's more, his methods of solving problems are painful ( mostly for him ) but effective. In season two his character becomes more mature, which is why he finally realises most important things.
Yukino - Best female character? I think yes. She is called "Ice Queen", because of her blue eyes and royal behaviour. In season two ( like Hikigaya ) she changes and becomes more softer than in the season one. Not only it is adorable, but also important for the romance in this story. However, we mustn't forget that Yukino will be Yukino and sometimes her actions make you feel nervous.
Yui - Another important person. Along with Yukino they both create one of the best female duo in the anime. I just can't find any similar show where two main girls can be such nice friends like here in Oregairu. Yui is also not as cute, as she looks like. Sometimes her attitude becomes more serious than Hikigaya and Yukino could even imagine.
Iroha - What can I say? She made this show even better than it was in season one. Sometimes irritates, sometimes amazes and sometimes makes you laugh. Great character.
Komachi - Best imouto? Yes, definitely. No incest, like in any other anime. Just casual brother and sister relation. Komachi motivates Hikigaya, when he doesn't have any motivation and feels helpless.
Haruno - If there could be one person who is considered to be a villain, Haruno certainly needs this title. Wherever she appears, her actions make life of mc more complicated.
Hayama - Finally, the only supportive character, who is a male and has interesting personality. Most fans of this show hate him, but I don't. Hikigaya and Hayama are like fire and water. Both of them are trying to find something "genuine". Both are trying to understand each other. And finally both have something, that the other one is missing.
Totsuka - If Steins Gate is so high, having a trap character, why Oregairu isn't? Totsuka is the main reason, why this series is so funny, when it supposed to be serious. Love his character.
Enjoyment 10/10
Like I said, I've seen this series six times and still have a desire to watch it again. If it's not the reason of such a high rating, I really don't know what it is. Each time I watch it, I understand it differently. This is what makes this anime such a great show. I'm looking forward for season 3. I hope it will bring the answers for all the questions from season 1 and 2, and finish the story in a great way.
Overall 10/10
Masterpiece. Highly recommended to everyone who likes stories about life issues and relationship between highschool students.
