Premise: Hasegawa Kodaka frightens most of his classmates with his blonde hair. Then he finds Mikazuki Yozora talking to an imaginary friend, and the two form the Neighbors Club in the hopes of finding real friends.

The Good: Haganai is partly a club anime and it has hints of romance, but mostly its a comedy with lots of fanservice. I like that Kodaka isnt a typical generic main dude, he has his own fun character traits and background characters being afraid of him is humorous. The clubs various female members are still basically his harem. My favorites were Kobato, Kodakas chuuni little sister, and the little kid nun Maria. Maria in particular has the same voice actress as Index from A Certain Magical Index, and they both have silver hair and they share some mannerisms. Maria is basically a tiny Index and I love her. She has a great dynamic with Kobato too.

The Bad: I dont mind fanservice, but sometimes Haganai goes in a weird direction with it. Even the Crunchyroll version has uncensored naked Kobato, who is thirteen, never mind the lewdness from the older girls. I didnt dislike anyone, but I wasnt a huge fan of Yozora, Sena, or Rika. Yozora and Sena spent most of their time fighting each other, it got old after awhile. Rika often went uncomfortably far with her innuendos.

Overall: Haganai has a lot of funny jokes from these friendless weirdos coming together, and I love Maria and Kobato. The other major characters arent anywhere near as good as those two, however. It used a lot of fanservice, with some of it verging on uncomfortable. I also really hated the end of the second season, but at least it wasnt the kind of ending that ruined everything that came before it.
