I wish Kawasaki and Meguri had bigger roles to play. Don't see them very often, which is a pity. Also, am i the only one who found it incredibly gratifying that Meguri remembered Hachiman's name? Felt so good.

She didn't take extra effort to memorize in Ep13 for nothing.

Or maybe scientific calculations. Or SETI. Or any flight sim.

I had thought the name Akutagawa seemed familiar. Leave it to Watari to link back to another literary writer he namedropped in vol. 4. Hikki quotes Natsume Sōseki's Kokoro to explain Rumi's action in saving her group. Yukino states the authenticity of her group's friendship is a mystery, that the answer lies within "In A Bamboo Grove", a story about the human willingness to perceive absolute truth.

My guess is this bit of hint ties in stronger to Yukino herself than Hayama given Hikki's flitting perception about Yukino as he learns more about her through the current request.

[toidaylabach]

The way Hachiman looks at Yukino sometimes feels like he's completely fallen for her. SHIPPING INTENSIFIES

The 970 in fact. It's funny, I buy this spiffed up rig yet I haven't been able to touch any games since I started translating. Just one more year and I'll be free.

Spoiler for second memorandum:

That if it was this book or that if it was that person who was many times more sensitive to the wicked nature of people, I thought, perhaps, they might find me. Perhaps they might see right through me.

Yet, despite looking at the things that were so close to me, despite seeing right through all the affairs of other things, I was the only one who wasn’t looked at.

I think this is confirmation enough that the memoradums aren't by Hikki, since clearly, they are talking about 8man. I'll agree with Excor here, its most likely Hayama. I-I mean, it can't be Yui, r-right?

This person sure has a lot of free time or maybe she doesn’t have any friends…?

Spoiler:

I'm wondering the exact same thing, since Haruno is treated as an entity near to perfection, who would be able to not only cope with her, but also to stand by her side as an equal, but then again the definition of "friend" is rather vague in this LN

Spoiler for Ahem:

“Do you not have very many friends?”

“That’s right and the only person who really ever gives me the time is just HIkigaya you see…”

That was in Volume 8.

Also, how about each memorandum was written by different people?

Spoiler for Irohasu:

“Ah, senpai!”

As if to say, “So sloooow” Isshiki trotted over and tried to grab my sleeve. But as soon as she noticed the two behind me, she slowly bowed.

Looks like Iroha got cockblocked again, those two certainly are diligent in their quest to stop the flags before they happen.

Damn, a 970, that thing is great value for what it does. I would have picked one up myself when I was putting my rig together, but I didn't have the cash for it at the time. Might get one eventually since the 980 seems to have resulted in a price drop.

[YumeNoMonogatari]

This chapter reminded me why I liked Saki so much... so cute :3 We need more her.
Same goes for Shizuka

[csuree]

Hachiman: “You don’t say…”
what came to my mind instantly:

Spoiler for you don't say...:

Imagining him with this face makes me laugh

[Shadow5YA]

Haruno gave a pretty big hint that Hayato (and Yukino) want Hachiman to know them well enough to figure out their career paths on his own. It ties back to Ebina's fujoshi pairing as well.

He's got less than two weeks to do it. The only option he has is to get them both into Sensei's car and make one hell of a scary ride until they admit it.

[Quol]

I wonder if Hikki and Hayama could become friends later in the story. Hayama seems to want Hikki to see through him and Hikki has grown enough to not hate youth with a passion.

Yeah, I noticed as well, I just didn't elaborate enough since I was on my phone. About memorandums, They seem to have some kind of continuity, at least those two, so I was guessing they were from a single person.

Spoiler for Chapter6:

Eventually, Haruno-san looked my way and made an enchanting smile.

“Something that’ll find him, I guess.”

Well, if Hayama turns out to be the guy from the memorandums, the quote above might be tied up with:

Spoiler for Memorandum:

That maybe if it was this book, then it might. That maybe if it was that person who was especially more sensitive to the evils of people, I thought, perhaps, they might find me. Perhaps they might see right through me.

If all this is true and Hayama is the one who wants that somebody(obviously 8man) to unmask his true nature, I don't see this ending with bro fists.

[SuitUp]

Sword fighting then?
I'll see myself out.

[Sohemo]

It's obvious but Watari is incredible. At least as a LN autor.

Vol. 8-5 links, as was already mentioned:

Spoiler for :

Haruno: “Well, that actually might just fit you Yukino. You don’t have to do anything after all. Someone will always do it for you, right?”
If you talk about it more, then you’ll definitely understand it more, Hachiman. But you’ll probably still not understand too...


Hayama: “I… actually expected things of you and even though I already understood, I ended up asking you anyway. Because of that…”
...
Hayama: “You… You help people because you want someone to help you, right?”

And some other lines as a ground for the second memo.


Not quite sure about “…I’ve always been thinking. About how I could recover the things that were destroyed.” though.

Also, his way of narration when

Spoiler for :

"To think I utilized influential literature for the sake of attaining answers to my own problems and for the sake of something so extremely selfish and personal made me disgusted with myself. Just how shallow, just how foolish, and just how unsightly I was."

makes you wonder whether it's a shame to sought answers from books while the next line leaves you with 'oh'. Although, who should be praised more here is a question.

Wonder if we will get Haruno drama someday with all those 'too much free time' and 'no friends?' and that frequent there-has-to-be-a-reason meddlesomeness throughout recent volumes.

Yui seems somehow very minor now.

And I found it quite nice how some other characters sometimes seems to be more complicated and harder to comprehend compare to Hachiman.


Also, 3rd memo title, will it be something along the lines of 'As long as it was someone's monologue' or 'Then if it actually was someone's monologue'?

I wouldn't say it's solely about Hachiman. It's like he just wants to be found the most.

[RioFoxx]

Spoiler for Spoiler Chapter 6:

'But someday, I will properly ask. Right now, I wasn’t sure at all what it is I could ask from, but even so, someday, I will for sure.'

Wow, Hachiman. What a contrast to the festival scene. What a contrast indeed.
