The drama ensues and 8man gets cornered by his own club mates.
Meanwhile, it's almost time for the fire to rise

Discuss.
>>
vol 8 ends with episode 5. So 4 episodes for vol 9 and another 4 for vol 10? or you would like them to take it slowly and end it at vol 9? I prefer they end it at vol 9 since it ends with maximum healing.
>>
You would think a series that talks about "shallowness" so much would have a chapter focus on the shallow queen. With a little character development.
>>
Excuse me for asking this, but I'm having a little bit of trouble keeping up with the story, even through the LNs.

8man says that what he does is not self sacrifice, because he doesn't let the opinion of those around him have any effect on him.

Still, from a while now, it seems that a lot of his decisions are coming from a more emotive standpoint, just not from his.

He let himself e swayed by the desire of Hayama's group to stay the same.

Is that the reason he couldn't put his ideals into word for Hayama? Because he's not sure what his ideals are anymore?
>>
>>124506240
It won't end at volume 9, most likely.
The anime ends at the same date that volume 11 of the LN is out, it's basically marketing.
>>
>>124506240

I doubt it'll reach vol 10.

Too much stuff to do for vol 8. Vol9 is also long.

I watched a young high school couple, maybe 17 or 18 years old, hop out of their car and walk into a cafe earlier today holding hands while laughing and smiling. The dude was an average looking nice guy type and the girl was legit cute. He grabbed the door for her and that was the last I saw. Living the dream.

I kind of laugh at slice of life anime because I say to myself "this shit doesn't happen in real life" but then I see something like this today, as rare as that might be, and think to myself that I might just be letting my own past experience (or lack thereof) cloud my ideas of what could have been possible.

No, he knows what his ideals are. He just has a difficult time trying to balance the desires of others and their conflicting emotional states WITH the problem at hand and the solution required to fix it.

Majority of cases that come to the service club, requires some form of confrontation with the person who requested it and stripping them down to the bare-bones, so that they understand their critical personal flaws and grow into a better person from there on.

The problem is, in high school, maturity is expensive--and no one wants to be that guy who's the dick, an honest man, but a dick nonetheless. Worse, someone HAS to do it.

The confession to Ebina, followed by that DISTINCT pause, and then the rejection, was the easiest way to resolve the conflicting emotional states walk away with everything still working out okay.

Yukinon got pissed at him, cause she assumed he wanted everything to remain the same. He didn't, but he saw no way out--of the problem given to him to solve, other than being the fall guy in a confession that was going to destroy Hayama's clique.

It's why after the fact, when Ebina goes to meet Hikigaya on the roof, she admits that the two of them are actually perfect for each other--as they're both aware of the consequences of high school life and what maturity actually entails. But because she still has some time left in high school, she'd like to be a hypocrite just a little while longer, and enjoy the low hanging fruit while she can.

It's also why, immediately after, Hikigaya admits that he too is the biggest liar/hypocrite of them all. In a way, it is a self-reflection that he's more ready for the real world than others around him, and that to play ball with their emotional states, sometimes he has to be the hypocrite to get things done.

Hypocrisy isn't wrong when it's the only available option. Hypocrisy IS wrong, when there are other options, but the route is taken out of convenience and callousness.

It's crazy to think about how different 8man and Yukino are. It started with this undertone that she was mature and he had to rise to her level, but it seems more and more obvious that she's the one bound by norms, unable to deviated from either the path her mother set to her, or the one her sister left behind.

She can't bring herself to throw that confort away. Hachiman on the other hand, wouldn't hesitate to do it, if he had to. People say that Yukinon didn't really have a lot of development, but I think it was very subtlety

If Hikigaya went and became a profiling agent for the government, he'd fucking excel. I mean, if you consider the anime/manga/ln. He just sits in class all day and observes people, understands what makes them tick and figures out how to solve their problems in the most efficient way possible.

Then in the services club, this is more of the same.

Any analyst role that requires understanding a human being, he'd excel in.

Iroha wears a mask the entire time to everyone, only exceptions are Hayama and 8man.
She's sly and likes to plan her actions ahead of time using manipulative methods and deception, which makes some anons believe that she will eventually break 8man.

Aside from that, it's just memes about her getting into the club and crashing it, and so on.

She is highly calculative and everything done so far are probably all plan out.
Hayama probably saw through her fake confession and knew she was only using him.

Also she kept her date receipt to file it under the school budget.

Umm, I just realized something

In Vol. 10 we find out that Yukinon might be obligated to marry Hayama. We also find out that Hayama won't refuse it because it's what's expected of him.
Yukinon won't stand up against her family.


I wonder if 8man will actually go into the whole family deal to try and help her. His relationship with Hayama seems to be at a boiling point, so I wonder what would happen if he ended up interfering with their family matters.

They're playing mind game with each other THat's also why he gets pissed at Hayama. Because he did something he didn't account for.

Yep. Hayama's mistake was misunderstanding why Hachiman does what he does. Makes one wonder why Hayama assumed it was a cry for help.

>>124508142
No, she really does find him interested. Pay attention to when Haruno uses her scary cold tone of voice and when she talks sweetly to him. She has expectations for Hachiman to follow along with her plans, which is why she constantly leads him on about her and Yukino's relationship.

>>124508187
Volume 11 can't come fast enough. We'll never get anywhere in our discussions until we find out what Hachiman's misunderstanding about Yukino is, and what happened between her, her sister and Hayama in the past actually was.

She just loves 8man and doesn't want him to suffer by being the one to give a bad campaign speech. She's essentially trying to solve the problem by taking all of the harm onto herself the same as Hachiman does. Hachiman doesn't understand this at all because his great observational skills are almost always wrong.
Yukino even makes a statement to him at some point along the lines of 'I thought you would understand this...'

Yukino is coming to understand Hachiman's point of view. You'll see this again in volume 9 when she stands with Hachiman as a villain to resolve the problem with the council meetings.
>>
>>124508369
Why would that be NTR? Yukino has been a terrible match for 8man from the beginning and there's absolutely nothing that sells them as love interests. Not everything has to revolve around 8man's dick just because he's the MC. He's allowed to have female acquaintances that aren't automatically harem members by association, and there's nothing wrong with them getting together with someone else.

To have the most popular female lead (Not waifu war shit, she was voted the top female character in japan) end up with the handsome perfect pretty boy "rival" would be a little bit too cruel.

Why not? He's already surrounded by a bunch of cute girls of varying ages who as a majority have a crush on him despite have nearly null redeeming qualities, a practically asexual alpha that wants to be like him, a trap, and the physically obvious loser sidekick that will never threaten his harem.

I'm sorry, but did the Yui already lose? Oh, that's right. The LN isn't even over yet. In fact, it's only halftime. Does not having the lead at halftime count as a loss? Is that what you're saying? Because if you're saying that I can assure you that you're wrong. Why would you make this topic when the game is still on? Yui is still playing right now and she has been the best girl in the Yaharibowl for how many years now? She's revaling with one of the worst girls in the whole medium who just happens to have a lead because she's feeding off the energy of being favored by the editor. But you know what? She still fucking sucks. Yui is one of the best fucking Characters in the Japanese literature, she went 12 episodes last year and would of won the Yaharibowl if the director didn't choke. Maybe you should shut the fuck up before you make retarded topics like this. You know why? Because you're going to be embarrassed when the Yui wins and someone bumps this topic. Are you a fucking drunk? Are you retarded? Are you autistic? You are a fucking idiot and you should never make a topic on this board again and I'm fucking serious. I almost have a feeling you're the only guy making all these anti-Yui topics because you're a faggot hater who doesn't like the girl because she’s good. Fuck you, be good at something in YOUR life and then maybe try to troll these fucking best girls on the board, like I give a fuck. It's so easy to spot out your threads now, you're a retard.

THis is what makes this post >>124508369 so unnerving.

I have a feeling we might end up with a shitload of curve balls by the time this is over. EIther 8man mans up, or the entire series was about a dude helpingg people while not achievieving any kind of happiness.

>>124508558

In episode 4, Haruno explicitly states that Hikigaya is reading through her every move, like she had evil intentions.

Yeah, she was prepared for it, but she also liked him for it. Hikigaya has seen through the ploy, it's why he wants to be the fall guy in the end. It's his way out of the "closed room murder" that Haruno is setting up. It's his golden truth.

Incidentally, he sees through Hayato too, and amusingly, Haruno leaves stating "it's become boring now," not because it's actually boring. But that Hayato is there, he's too simple to read through, and she didn't feel like sticking around.

I'm certain she'd stayed longer if only Hikigaya was there.

Lastly, Hikigaya delivers some pretty scathing remarks to Hayato too when Hayato acted in the interest of Hikigaya. While I found the idea and his attempt touching, his delivery was bad and his end game (Hayato's) was atrocious.

Hayato fucked up by taking the pity route, the "I'm above you, haha--you bitches are so funny," route.

So what did orimoto mean when she said "I see" before leaving.
>>
>>124508902

She admitted to it, in her contextual statements to Hikigaya in front of Hayato.

"...like she has evil intentions." It was very subtle, but the inflection of her tone was just enough to pick up on it. She wants him badly, but social standing and other structural "issues" and also general societal laws, are preventing.

It's funny, I'm starting to see Umineko parallels between hikigaya and haruno. Not as much the denial of magic between Battler and Beatrice, but the tsun-tsun dere-dere chemistry they were building.

I'm digging it.

I laughed when Iroha showed up for like a min. so I guess that counts.

Man, I got hooked to this series because of the great characters, but I sure as fuck hope 8man mans up and at least gets into a romantic mindset in Vol 11.

To have him simply hand Yukino over to Hayama without even putting up a fight would be ridiculous.

Pair that with Haruno winning the 8bowl and your golden.

For the 100th time, wait for the next arc.
Iroha will save you from your torment.

Is this show good again?

Well, Volume 9 is intended to be much calmer in nature and alleviate some of the tension caused by the drama of Volume 8. BRAINSTORMING should be a nice bit of comedic relief, and we still have Destinyland to stir up the shippers. And, of course, there's the genuine scene coming up.

It's fairly tame in comparison to past resolutions, but wouldn't you get tired of drama after more or less 2 entire volumes' worth?

Don't worry, anon. SYNERGY, COLLABORATION and WIN-WIN will save the day.

Most of the comedy comes from 8man's internal monologue. And they cut most of those out.

Haruno is making fun of Hikigaya - he has no background of the circumstances of their family and assumes Haruno is just being a slightly overbearing sibling. Haruno is actually trying to help Yukino - Hachiman completely misreads what is going on.

Didn't you see the previews?

Wait for iroha shenanigans next week. Even 8man is acting goofy in it.

>>124509075
We got to see 8man see Miura's panties, there.

Why would you ever want that?

It is missing

Not, it's shit, but we keep on watching it because we've got shit taste.

A gentleman with superior taste such as yourself shouldn't watch this.

I'd prefer a loner ending. As in no girl wins, but Hachiman finds self-worth and gained friends.

I think if I had to drink for each time I saw the word cuck or something about batman I would die a hundred times over from intoxication. Seriously people find more creative ways to do things its getting stale.
