Hachiman, also named "Hiki" by his classmate Yui, is your average, mediocre teenager who has charming traits. Still, the eloquence that he operates all the time with his dead fish-like eyes is a turn-off for most people around him. He is skeptical towards everything in life while keeping himself alone from everyone else in school as he assumes that they're all fake, bogus and are just misleading themselves with what they call "entertainment."

While others call him disordered and distorted for his melancholy disposition, he blames them and the community for being how he is. Even his sense of amusement is self-deprecating and disillusioned most of the time, which makes many people around him very uneasy and irritated.

He is so dedicated to accomplishing something in life that he often ultimately loses himself to his work. Even while operating at the Volunteer Service Group, a lot of the times, he ends up crippling himself, just to make sure that he can help others.

Yukino is the originator and director of the Volunteer Service Club before Hachiman was compelled to join her. She was the individual member of the club. The truth that she runs a club only to help others out is just her opinion, which makes her look kind, but the fact is that she has a very particular insight into responsibility.

She assumes that she is abnormally superior and excellent to those around her, and she must manage the "lost lambs" towards the enlightenment on the right path. She is often shunned for her sense of "noblesse oblige."

Her biggest predicament is her escape intellect and her disability to be able to solve her difficulties on her own. Yukino assists her out with this dilemma and even solves it to a specific amount.
