This loner’s web of relationships is only getting more tangled... The school trip has left a bad taste in everyone’s mouths, and as the Service Club tries to maintain its daily routine, someone comes to them with a request regarding the election for student council president. However, when the three club members squabble over how to fix the problem, they go their separate ways! Hachiman Hikigaya knows his relationships can’t stay the same forever, yet he’s certain he himself is incapable of change. When he finds something worth protecting, will his methods be to everyone’s benefit, or will they be another colossal mistake?

Hachiman Hikigaya is a cynic. "Youth" is a crock, he believes--a sucker's game, an illusion woven from failure and hypocrisy. But when he turns in an essay for a school assignment espousing this view, he's sentenced to work in the Service Club, an organization dedicated to helping students with problems in their lives! How will Hachiman the Cynic cope with a job that requires--gasp!--optimism?

Hachiman Hikigaya is a cynic. He believes "youth" is a crock-a sucker's game, an illusion woven from failure and hypocrisy. Unsurprisingly, he's not the most popular guy. Meanwhile, there's Yukino Yukinoshita-brilliant, beautiful, and chillier than winter in Antarctica. Would you believe she's not exactly beloved by her classmates either? The unlikely pair gets forced into a club dedicated to helping solve their fellow students' problems. But will an ice queen and a screwup really be able to help anybody?

Hachiman Hikigaya's life has changed little since being forced to join the Service Club. Sure, he now spends his time after school in the company of the icy Yukino Yukinoshita and bubbly airhead Yui Yuigahama, but his warped personality still ensures that he won't wring a moment's enjoyment from his insufferable school life. When someone starts trolling his class with hateful e-mails, though, and the Service Club is enlisted to help solve the case, Hachiman's "unique" perspective as an outsider might finally come in handy...or he could still just be a loser.

SUMMER CAMP IS A MINEFIELD FOR A LONER... Ahh, summer break. No school, no responsibilities, and no friends to pass the time with--until Miss Hiratsuka drafts the Service Club (plus a few normies) into volunteering to supervise an elementary school camping trip. But Hachiman has a knack for sticking to the sidelines and is prepared to survive this awkward outing with as little conflict as possible--until he meets a little girl who's already started down the path of loner-dom herself.

Nothing ever changes. No friends, no girlfriends--nothing but a solitary life at school... So why is Hachiman so uncomfortable? Maybe it's the fact that their club room is one girl short. There's no way Yukino and Hachiman can solve the problems born from this chain of misunderstandings. The bittersweet time with Totsuka, preparing for battle with Zaimokuza, a secret side of Ms. Hiratsuka...and strip poker? Surrounded by characters sprinting headlong in the wrong direction, will the club ever return to normal?

Ah, culture festivals. The best way to survive such a troublesome chore is...don't answer when someone talks to you, and act obviously annoyed. Employing his loner skills to the fullest, Hachiman is ready and willing to run at the first sign of responsibility. Unfortunately, while he's busy skipping homeroom, he ends up being chosen for the culture festival committee...
