Overall Review: Yahari Ore no Seishun Rabukome wa Machigatteiru

With a lead as snarky as Hikki, is it any surprise that this series became weirdly popular?

"Thus Their Festival Will Never End"

That erasing your presence thing... Ah. good times, good times.

"Thus, The Curtain Rises On Each of Their Stages, As The Festival Reaches a Feverish Pitch" and "And Thus His, Her, and Her Teenage Lives stay Messed Up"

For all of you who were skeptical about the Hachiman=Batman comparison, have no doubt, we have our Dark Knight.

"For the Third Time, He Goes Back to the Path He Originally Followed" and "The Distance Between Them Hasn’t Changed and The Festival Will Soon Become a Carnival"

Yeah, this is pretty much Yukino's fault.

"One Day, They Shall Learn the Truth"

I'm on the HikkixTrap ship. We need more of those in romcoms.

Kids can be pretty cruel.

"Finally, His and Her Beginning Has Ended"

Familiar paths it may tread, but this series always manages to keep a little spark that makes it different from its romcom family.

"Once Again, He Turns His Back on the Path from Whence He Came"

Somehow I got a weird Hyouka-ish vibe off Yahari this week; just not in the beauty department.

"In Other Words, He Doesn't Have Many Friends"

Though Yahari is easily the weakest entry in my schedule this season, it's hardly the worst anime I've ever seen.

"Sometimes The God of Romcoms Does Nice Things"

Dammit Hachiman, get out of my head already!

KUMA NI NARITAI!

Snarky, pessimistic, and just a little bit depressing... why does it feel like high school all over again?
