Kinda nitpicking, but when Hachiman called Yui "bicchi", why the sub translated it as "slut", and not simply "bitch"? Perhaps it's just me, but unless Hachiman intended to seriously insult Yui, there's no way he would call her "slut"

Yeah, it's not the first time Japanese has completely bastardized english words (or how us English speakers do the same.... "hentai", "bishie", or even "anime" comes to mind ). Another example would be the word "Mansion". To the typical english speaker, you're thinking a grand, or extraordinarily large house. To the typical Japanese speaker, that pretty much means a high class apartment/condominium.
So yeah, literally she did say bitch. But the way she meant it, it's closer to the english word slut.

You know, initially I didn't see a lot of value in this show (the description on MAL really doesn't describe what you're getting very well). The assumption was a Keima-like character being thrown into a RomCom harem. I was glad that this was not the case.
In fact, I'm quite glad I watched this because I found it to be a pretty interesting premise. As long as maintains the idea it started out with, I think it has good potential. Mostly though, it reinforces the fact that I'm really good at choosing anime that I'll actually like. :P Spoiler for Episode's Ending Talk:

Seen first ep. I actually like our snarky “rotten” MC. He’s not just cynical but somewhat smart even though socially awkward. I enjoy his verbal exchanges with Yukino as well as his “solution” to Yui’s problem through his “self sacrifice” by telling his own failure in the past . The “solution” ended up worked for both Yui and Yukino even if only a bit. I’ll put this series to my follow-list.
