    Honestly, thank you for at least bringing up the "save me someday" scene. Too many people either completely misunderstand or completely dismiss it even though that scene specifically had always stuck out to me with how much it holds for Hachiman and Yukino

    This show is honestly one of the best anime ever. Even though its almost a decade old.
    A lesson on learning to be your genuine self and letting that persona break through the facade you've built up for so long is honestly a lesson a lot of people (myself included) should learn.

    Imo OreGairu has the best character development in all of anime.
    Hachiman in season 1 is pessimistic, he wants to be alone and believes he really is on his own. But in season 2, he learns that his actions also affect Yukino and Yui. For the first time, he not only realizes he has bonds, he has to fight to maintain them. Hachiman lets out his true desires which he kept hidden for so long to protect him from getting hurt, saying he wants the real thing. And in season 3, he goes out of his way to follow his heart and pursues a romantic relationship with Yukino.
    As for Yukino, she is very distant in season 1, to the point where at the end of the season, she can only hint at her, Yui and Hachiman being friends. But when Haruno starts playing a bigger role in her life in season 2, Yukino opens up, showing weakness and becoming straight up vulnerable. This goes on in season 3 where she's challenged by not only Haruno but also herself. She wants to spare Yui's feelings and become independant of Hachiman, but she eventually has to face her own emotions, telling her she can't live without him.
    And Yui started out as a generic happy go lucky nice girl in season 1. She hung out with the popular kids simply to go with the flow, never really doing anything for herself. But that changes when she joins the service club and finds real friends. In season 2, she becomes open and honest with herself, trying to do everything she can to keep her friend group alive. This results in her creating schemes, trying to get what she wants while at the same time, her own emotions are fighting over what is more important: romance with Hachiman or Yukino's feelings? She grows from a very simple character to arguably the most complicated person on the show.

    when I first went into this show, I wasn't expecting where it actually went. The dynamic between hachiman, yukino, and yui is a lot more complex than a standard love triangle. Even though there is some romantic feelings involved, the friendship of these characters takes the forefront. They slowly open up to each other, they want to remain friends together. Yui for example could've ran for student concil president because of jealousy, but instead she actually did it because she didn't want to lose Yukino and hachiman. They show frustration with each other not because they dislike each other, but because they want each other to be happy. They faced their insecurities together, which allowed them all to grow as people. Even though Yukino and Hachiman end up together, this doesn't destroy their relationship with yui. You can honestly say they all saved each other, they all were able to grow through their doubts and break through the image they forced upon themselves.
    I can see why this show is highly acclaimed compared to most shows in a similar genre. They break the tropes which most would stick to. Characters I didn't expect to particularly care for ended up being some of my favorite parts of the show (ie. Yui). You got a healthy balance with the humor where it isn't too over the top but still manages to make you smile. You have some truly heartfelt moments where you truly feel yourself in the characters shoes. Glad I watched this series.

    This series has and will always be my favorite of all time. Never thought it would be when I originally watched it air back in Spring 2013, but learning more about the characters from the wiki and reading the light novel itself made me fall in love with the characters and story the more I followed it. I still get sentimental whenever I take time to watch it again. Really wish I could go back in time to experience the story fresh and remember my anticipation, dread, and excitement when new episodes and story development will happen.
    God I love this series!

    The title says it all, I just can't move on from this show. I dunno why but this series resonated with me so much. I wish this came out while I was in high school. I would've learned a lot. It just has a lot of nuances and subtleties that make it so much different from others in the same genre. I would go so far as to say it's the best one I have watched.
    And damn, I shouldn't say this because the ending was perfect but.. I really want more of them. I just can't get enough. It's fulfilling but sad at the same time.

    I watched OreGairu for the first time a couple months ago, and it impacted me a lot. My younger self reminds me of Hachiman, so it was really rewarding to see his growth over the course of seasons two and three, which confirmed the importance of friendship and vulnerability for me. I ended up writing a reflection on the anime for a magazine, and I think the analysis lines up a lot with yours. If you have the time, look up "Persimmons Magazine"-it's the first result, with my post being on the front page-I'd appreciate any comments :)

      I was not expecting a whole ass well-written philosophy paper about oregairu that also linked to russian and french literature. The analysis is fundamentally the same, but the links to key moral and introspective viewpoints, as well as specific examples to visualize what exactly the text is referring to, is done flawlessly better. Good job my guy!

      @@C_Atkins976 Wow, I saw your article. It's so detailed and compared to some philosophy and literature pieces that it makes a GENUINE work from within your heart. I watched Oregairu long time ago (I had to wait like 3.5 years for season 3) and I remembered about it because of the newest OVA for season 3 that came out just a few months ago. For example, I love how you also noticed the direct analogy between Hachiman saying "If this is all it takes to tear us apart, then maybe you weren’t all that close to begin with" to Hayato about his friends at the beginning of season 2, and then Hachiman received the same words from Yukino a few episodes later (episode 7 to be exact: czcams.com/video/Yc7jSEMT2gM/video.html). This is the fragment from your article I am talking about: "At the beginning of season two, Hachiman tells Hayato to his face that in trying to prevent his group from falling apart, what he is trying to save is probably not worth it if it needs saving. The great irony is that by the end of the same season, he finds himself in the very same position, noting his own falseness in interacting with Yukino and Yui, the first group of which he has been a part and to which he feels an obligation."

    Tbh I wouldn’t call it a love triangle. In order for it to be a love triangle, the other has to have some chance of winning at least imo. Hachiman has liked Yukino from the very beginning. He was never confused between who he liked but rather what his feelings were towards Yukino. In this case Yui was put in to bring the two together. Bc of her they had a reason to be spend time, question their motives, and in the end find their genuine. I feel Yui is the most simple and yet complex character in the show. It sucks that she gets reduced to just a battle of waifu.

I watched the 1st season as the 2nd season was still going and I thought the first season was funny. When second season ended I just thought ok cool, and a year later (2016) I understood it more and a year later (2017) when the 2nd ova came out I rewatched and realized and filled in some blanks I got really invested and understood it some more. In the end of 2019 when last volume came out, I was like wow and started to gain more interest as it reminded me of my teenage syndical back hand comments kinda dragged me down when I was forming adult relationships as I was getting older and when in 2020 when the 3rd season was supposed to start airing I rewatched it some more and suddenly it all made sense of what the show was about and one’s thinking, actions and social cues can affect/ worry for other people and close friends.

    AHHHHH this is very old, at that time where we all waited every single episode and Every season of Oregairu, It was the best realistic romance at all time because it was too realistic like really realistic man so it took a lot of time till it was finally finished but each episode was like crazy masterpiece is what I would call, also I would describe Oregairu as "I was like watching another reality world man but in anime".
    This takes it back man. Still top 2 on my list man.
    So nostalgic man, if there was a time after our Midterms where we could watch this show again in the future then definitely I would watch this masterpiece again.
    This was the Best romance for 4 years, Straight like straight at that time never ever anyone surpassed this show as the top one spot for 4 years.
    It has always been a top 1 ranked for four years straight at that time.

    I enjoyed your commentary very much.
    Both yours and my interpretations of these characters are similar in some ways.
    The ongoing mistreatment both Hachiman and Yukino experience causes them to decide to lie to themselves.
    And their lies are the same:
    "None of this hurts me."
    In my view, Seasons 1 and 2 focused on Hachiman's path toward recovery. He finally concludes that he has to confront his lie, because it has poisoned him with self-loathing. His mistaken belief that friendship and love are unreal has left him at a standstill. He needs "something genuine" in order to move forward.
    Season 2 sees the beginning of Yukino's journey. She has to confront her own lie because it's poisoning her, making her lose her own identity. By this time she has developed a heartfelt bond with Hachiman. While not yet romance, it is still love --- and trust. She knows that if anyone could "save her" from feeling so lost, Hachiman would.
    In Seasons 2 and 3 Yui's inner monologue and verbal challenge with Yukino are rooted in her own lie. She tells herself she is 'not a nice person', is 'greedy', and 'wants it all'. Because of beginning to 'experience romance for the first time', she feels an inexplicable impulse to compete against Yukino for Hachiman. This poisons her into believing she's a bad person. In the end, her empathetic nature and deep love for Yukino reveal her to be otherwise.
    I keep in mind that these characters are not adults. They're in the bloom of youth, the time of self-discovery. And I feel the author of this original story did an outstanding job of recalling those formative moments of youth.
    Life is happy and it's disappointing. It's stable and it's scary. It's secure and it's unpredictable. And Hachiman, Yukino, and Yui begin wading into those waters for the first time in their lives in 3 Seasons of a beautifully written story called My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU.

    • @ArkNeuron
      @ArkNeuron  Před 8 měsíci

      BEAUTIFULLY said! And I like that you point out the fact that they're not adults, despite it being an obvious given, due to the high school setting. Reason being, all three of them have a surprisingly VERY mature, yet very childish approach to romance, and well, problem solving as a whole, which can be similarly said about young adults in their early 20s.
      Wish I had this summary to incorporate into the video's script when I made it, cause it's flawless.

      Hikigaya tried to convince himself that being a loner is good, but not because he did not believe in friendship and love.
      His real problem is that he only saw what he wanted to see
      For Yui (as for everything in Oregairu), context is important. "not a nice person" = confession.
      Yui is not kind, but weak, always conceded to everyone, but tried at any cost to save the club, Yukino and Hikigaya (in that order), which is not easy in the current situation.

    you should actually watch it again, there is more to it then you think it is.
    The accident is in reality way more important then one might think.
    The service club itself is most likely not there to be there for real, but for the rehabilitation of Hachiman and Yukino.
    All of them now about the accident except Hachiman, which is why there is such a bad mood after summer break, and why Yukino is waiting for him outside the service club, something she never did before.
    The symbolism/rhyming themes are even more pronounced in the second season, where Hachiman is as guilty as Hayma.
    This is not meant to be a criticism in and of itself, it's more a hint that you should rewatch it and pay closer attention. A lot of stuff is hidden in plain sight.
    Not getting it is not to blame on you, this is how the author writes his stuff (and one of the reasons why he thought his novel couldn't be transfered into an anime).

    It's basically a story where the lowest person in society builds their own happy ending from almost nothing.
    The main reasons why he could was because of networking from his teacher. And understanding his true self. What he wants out of life.
    Had it not been for Shizuka-sensei. The 3 main characters would have just been faceless people in the crowd.

    That show was an absolute odyssey for me. When I first watched it in 2013, I didn't like it. Well, I liked the side characters, but the main three just annoyed me to no end. When I watched season 2 in 2015, I came around to really like Hachiman, but also was confused by a lot of the other stuff. Yukino's sister especially drove me up a wall. I didn't get her, and her demeanor just seemed mean for no reason.
    In a way, it was good that it took all the way to 2020 for season 3 to release. I rewatched all of the anime (which was another strange journey because in my language, the series was divided between multiple streaming services) and then season 3. The extra life experience (and multiple rewatches) helped me make more sense of the show. Though by the end of it, the romance tag I originally picked it up for in 2013 seemed entirely secondary to me. The psychological aspects of the show are much more interesting in my opinion.
