Hachiman Hikigaya is a cynic. Youth is a crock, he believes— a sucker's game, an illusion woven from failure and hypocrisy. But when he turns in an essay for a school assignment espousing this view, he's sentenced to work in the Service Club, an organization dedicated to helping students with problems in their lives!

How will Hachiman the Cynic cope with a job that requires—gasp!—optimism?
