Story:8/10
As of now i am someone who doesnt watch an anime based on how amazing its story was, tho obviously i wouldnt watch it if its horrible, so i didnt focus much on the storyline of the anime but if i had to judge it i would say it was pretty decent and interesting as we followed the continuation of the voluntary club helping their school members along with fighting agaisnt their own problems and desires.If you are someone who watches anime solely on the bases of the storyline then i honestly dont think so you will find this anime anything amazing or a masterpiece in that sense but you could still give it a try.
Art and Animation:10/10
So the animation was a HUGE step up from the previous season as the character's art and design looked so much more smooth and beautiful.What's more is that character's body movement and emotional expressions perfectly synched in along with the timing and pacing.In my opinion i would regard the animation as one of my fav of all time as it was really soothing just to watch the characters and as this anime has a tendency of putting in a lot of emphasis on character expressions the studio handled it perfectly.
Sound:9/10
Not much to say here other than that they used some of the previous seasons ost which perfectly synched in with the atmosphere and also lined up perfectly with the timing of the incident.
Character:10/10
This is the part were the anime takes it all for me.I would regard oregairu's character and character development as my all time fav since i have yet to see an anime where they outstand oregairu's character development or characters for that.The characters which i am specifically referring to are hikigaya and yukino.As someone who had a somewhat of a same outlook on society as hikigaya i was able to understand why he acted the way he did in some of the incidents.Hikigaya proved that its not always good to be popular/outstanding in life as that could backfire on you.In fact he even proved that people who like to stand out in society usually have to lie to themselves which ends up turning lying for them as normal as breathing.I for one can agree with this as i witnessed this first hand.In my school everyone wanted to make themselves look like they were above others and werent ready to accept defeat when they were wrong.They would always regard those who didnt talk much in class as 'dumb' and 'non-attentive kids' who were to be used as pawns for their own benefits.And yes as you might have guessed it i was the most silent kid in my class so i was subjected to this a lot.90% of the times they would try to keep a good image of themselves infront of me to have an impression that they were better than me in life. leaving me alone,they would even lie to their own peers of being some kind of perfectionist.For this reason i never wanted to befriend them and would always stay away from them as one could define them as 'hypocrites'.
Since the start for school i never was good at studies and would usually be in the top 5 lowest achievers however this changed when i got into highschool.As i developed an interest in studies due to certain reasons i become one of the best in academics and those who previously held this title werent ready to accept this.I was subjected to bullying and would usually be called a nerd or 'someone who studies for 24/7' for this reasons as i didnt have many friends so i would usually be seen studying or reading a book.So i pretty much understood yukino's point of view and not to mention that i had very limited interest and was somene who couldnt get along with others so my parents would force me to change that attitude which wasnt something i wanted to do as i preferred being alone.To sum it up the characters of oregairu are amazing and one could relate with them.The way the character development was handled was by far the best i have seen in any anime.
Enjoyment:10/10
As someone who watches an anime on the bases of how enjoyable it is (and arguably its animation) i could say this with certainty that oregairu was really enjoyable.The comedy was straight up funny and savage.Along with that were also some heart soothing scenes which relieved me of all my worries and kept me wanting to watch more of it.
Overall:10/10
Oregairu would definately be classified as one of my fav anime of all time tho if i had to give some cons it would be that the ending was a cliffhanger and at the time of writing this we shouldnt expect a s3 anytime soon(Actually their are chances of it not at all having a s3 since 3 volumes wouldnt result in much content).Also those who have yet to attend highschool or have graduated from highschool might find it boring and lame.
