My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU : Season 1

Pragmatic loner Hachiman Hikigaya writes an essay describing his view on the lives of contemporary teenagers which displeases his language teacher, Shizuka Hiratsuka. As punishment, she forces Hachiman to join the Soubu High School Service Club and requests that its sole member—Yukino Yukinoshita—try to remedy his broken social skills. This immediately results in a clash between both students and Shizuka proposes that they contest their ideals by helping people sent to the club. The next day, Ha

Shizuka once again reproves Hachiman for basing his Biology report on his dissatisfaction with the dominance hierarchy established by social groups. Later that day, Yumiko Miura pressures Yui for a straight excuse when she tries to break away from their social group to have lunch with Yukino. Yukino then shows up and demands an explanation for Yui's tardiness but ends up forgiving her. However Yumiko makes an outburst when Yui focuses her attention on Yukino, prompting the latter to call Yumiko

Yui stops coming to the Service Club meetings and seems to drop out altogether following her previous encounter with Hachiman and Shizuka tasks them in recruiting a new third member.

The pair eventually settle on purchasing some trendy accessories for Yui until they run into Yukino's older sister—Haruno Yukinoshita—who

Hachiman tries his best to relax during Summer break and ignores the backlog of messages from Shizuka concerning the Service Club activities. Shizuka eventually manages to lure Hachiman out and takes the Service Club and other Soubu High students to a prefectural park in Chiba to overseer an elementary school Summer camp for a few days. During the orienteering event, Hachiman and Yukino bear witness to the deliberate shunning of the young Rumi Tsurumi by her peers, and the many failed attempted

The Summer camp continues and Shizuka asks the Soubu group to prepare a 'test of courage' and bonfire event for the evening. After some preparations, the Soubu girls relax at a nearby river and Rumi joins Hachiman on the bank where he outlines the waning probability of holding on to elementary school ties as one grows older.

Yui invites Hachiman and Komachi to the annual summer fireworks festival as thanks for taking care of her dog but Komachi backs out of the offer to give Hachiman and Yui a chance to go together. On the day of the festival, Hachiman and Yui try to compensate for the awkwardness of going out together for the first time by shopping around for some items for Komachi. The fireworks soon begin and the pair run into Haruno while looking for a place to watch the spectacle. Haruno uses the opportunity to

Shizuka volunteers Hachiman as the male representative of 2F for the cultural festival committee and Hayama later nominates Minami Sagami as the female representative, who further volunteers to be the committee chair in an attempt to further her self growth. Afterwards, Minami requests that Yukino assist her with the chairing responsibilities as vice-president. Much to everyone's surprise, Yukino excels at managing the festival responsibilities far more effectively than Minami. In the meantime,

Hachiman and Yui visit Yukino and find that she had worked herself to exhaustion by taking on most of the festival work. Yui scolds her for not relying on them more and Hachiman reinforces her argument by explaining that in an ideal world people rely on each other, but even then he doesn't know if it would be the right course of action. The next day, the festival committee attempt to brainstorm festival slogans which all indicate a sense of comradery. Hachiman cleverly proposes a slogan by using

Soon enough, as the closing ceremony approaches, Meguri reports that Minami is missing in action. Since she is needed to deliver the closing speech, th

Soubu High School holds its annual athletic festival and Hachiman tries to rationalize his disinterest in participating by reinterpreting a speech by Pierre de Coubertin. Some time earlier, Meguri Shiromeguri requests that the Service Club assist her in planning her final athletic festival at the school. The Service Club agree and Meguri has them brainstorm event ideas, all of which are shot down by Shizuka on account of the social sensitivity attached to them. Hachiman decides to enlist the cre
