Show Plot[edit]The story follows two loners, the pragmatic Hachiman Hikigaya and beautiful Yukino Yukinoshita, who despite their varying personalities and ideals, offers help and advice to others as part of their school's Service Club, assisted by the cheerful and friendly Yui Yuigahama. It largely depicts various social situations faced by teens in a high school setting and the psychology driving their interactions. Characters[edit]Main characters[edit]The main characters in the series are members of the school's service club, which is supervised by Shizuka Hiratsuka. Hachiman Hikigaya (比企谷 八幡, Hikigaya Hachiman) Voiced by: Takuya Eguchi (Japanese); Adam Gibbs (English)The viewpoint character of the light novels, Hachiman is a student in class 2F of Sōbu High School who has been discriminated against in the past to the point that he becomes isolated, friendless, and pragmatic to a fault. His most prominent feature is his set of "dead fish-eyes" that puts people off. Due to years of social isolation, he has developed a habit of observing people in his surroundings from a distance, earning him a skill for social perception, figuring out the true nature of people. He believes that youth is an illusion created by hypocrites, for hypocrites, born from his past failures. His experience leads him to believe the happiness of others is a facade. He is affectionately called "Hikki" by Yui. Hayato's clique wrongly address him as "Hikitani". His teacher Shizuka worries about him becoming a social outcast and forces him to join the Service Club. Hachiman believes himself to be an insignificant entity and is willing to take the blame in order to keep everyone else happy. On the first day of high school, he winds up in a car accident from trying to save Yui's puppy and ends up in the hospital for three weeks, making him an outsider once he gets back because the whole class has already formed its cliques. He thinks that Yui's feelings for him are due to guilt and thus, indirectly rejects Yui, thinking he would cause trouble for her. He also distances himself from Yukino after realizing that the car that rammed into him belongs to her family. In both cases, they make amends with him once said misunderstandings are cleared. It is suggested that he is aware of the girl's feelings, due to studying people's behavior and doesn't accept them as genuine, but eventually confesses to Yukino after being honest with his own feelings.

She shows no empathy and little kindness towards Hachiman at first, but eventually opens up to him. Due to her talent and beauty, she is envied by most girls and is disgusted by their attitude to undermine her instead of improving themselves, thus she has few friends. She has a twisted sense of noblesse oblige, and believes it is the duty of the exceptional to help the "lost lambs" of the world. She essentially wants to help others, but is brutally honest and directly analyses their flaws. Her personality often leads her to be disgusted at the naiveté and lack of understanding how things work of others, particularly Yui's, and she does not hesitate to show it. Despite this, Yui still affectionately refers to her as "Yukinon"; thanks to her, Yukino becomes kinder and the two girls become best friends. She recognizes Hachiman from the car accident but lies about it when Hachiman joins the Service Club. She is devastated when he distances himself from her, after learning it from her sister.

She believes that talent is inborn, and often aspires to be like others until Yukino changes her way of thinking. Following her experience with the Service Club, Yui begins to attend Service Club sessions after school as well, despite Yukino's objections early on. In class, Yui is a member of Hayato's clique but has no say in matters as she is often overwhelmed by Yumiko. She has been holding feelings towards Hachiman ever since he saved her dog on the first day of high school. Upon learning Hachiman is in love with Yukino, Yui decided to give up her feelings toward Hachiman and decided to support them. She is later able confess her feeling to him, but is rejected by him.

As such, Yukino took up the role of an assistant event organizer and claimed the spotlight in making the cultural festival a successful one, which in turn made Minami depressed about her own uselessness and refused to host the closing ceremony. However, as Hachiman's fierce scolding has successfully turned himself into the scapegoat and shifted the blame away from Minami, she attended the closing ceremony and ended the cultural festival on a high note.

Additionally, she never remembers to knock before entering the Service Club's classroom, much to Yukino's chagrin.

She acknowledges Hachiman's perceptiveness and often playfully teases him.

For instance, in the 1st season, Haruno appears suddenly to abruptly intervene with the Cultural Festival where her role becomes to encourage the President to take it easy, resulting in delayed tasks.
