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?

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?

When reputations are threatened, loners alone have no fear. 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.

A not so merry ChristmasChristmas is almost here, but everything Hachiman has wanted, everything he might have wished for, is gone. Ever since the student council elections, the Service Club members have been at an awkward standstill. Something is broken between them, but they gather in the clubroom with the hope that things will just go back to normal. That’s when Iroha Isshiki, the new student council president, brings in a request to help her with a joint Christmas event with another school. Hachiman decides to lend a hand, but not on behalf of the Service Club—he’ll do this one on his own.

The Service Club is especially busy these days now that they're handling requests via email. Even without the excitement of a major event, sometimes just the day to day is all the drama you need...

WHAT DOES THE FUTURE HOLD FOR THE SERVICE CLUB? After the Valentine’s Day event and the trip to the aquarium, Hachiman, Yukino, and Yui decide on their next step-but suddenly, the Service Club receives a huge request! Yukino feels she must answer the call, even if she regrets her choice... Everyone has to grow up someday, and not every person you meet along the way will stay with you. Until that day comes, though, there is only the present. What answers to their dilemma do these three hold close to their hearts?
