Dear Yukkuricraft, I have read Haganai for 6 volumes, & I can safely say that it is bad. Here is why.
At first, it seems like it might be good, what with the premise of friendless people forming a club to make friends being very relatable. Then everything started to go downhill starting with the arrival of Sena. If she's supposed to be seen as sympathetic, then I do not understand why they made both her & Yozora act like bitches. If one of them acted like that, then I would feel more sympathy, but since it's both of them, all I feel is nothing. Let's talk about Yozora. Yozora's only slightly more sympathetic due to a subplot she has with Kodaka, our protagonist, but it doesn't make up for her basically bullying Sena. Then again, Sena acts like a lolicon around Kodaka's little sister Kobato, aka Reisys VI Felicity Sumeragi. Speaking of Reisys, I can only imagine what was going through the minds of the writer who decided to give her censored nude scenes in volumes 2 & 5. It's especially baffling that I got to see that unwrapped, since Canada has a "WE MUST PROTECT THE FICTIONAL CHILDREN" attitude. Don't get me wrong, she's cute, but dammit. The same can't be said for Rika. Pervy scientist Rika made me very uncomfortable, & I read a scene in Watamote where Tomoko Kuroki watches people have sex from the rooftops (BTW read Watamote, it's better.) I used to think that Yukimura was the best character, until I spoiled myself on the resolution to his character arc, which is a total cop out. As such, Maria became my favourite. Overall, it's mediocre at best, & it's better if you're a fan of harem anime. I give it a 5/I can't even unload it on my sister, & by that I mean 10.
Feel free to criticize me, or put your own criticisms of Haganai. Thank you.
