Following the Summer Camp Arc, both Hachiman and Yui learn Yukino's automobile hit and wounded Hachiman. They debate approaching Yukino together, but decide to let her approach them on her own. Hachiman ended up joining Yui to the conclusion of the summer fireworks celebration at Komachi's request. During the fireworks show. Following this, Hachiman accompanies Yui home. Yui cleared up the prior misunderstanding on the way back, explaining that the accident was not the underlying reason of her actions toward him. Yui looked to be going to reveal her affections to Hachiman at the conclusion, but an incoming phone from her mother cut her off. Although she seems resolved to reject the call and continue on her way, Hachiman (who appears to be aware of her intent) pushes Yui to accept the call. Yui thanks Hachiman and rushes home after the call.
After they finished Iroha's Christmas wish, they sat down together, and Yui and Yukino said that Hachiman's request is still incomplete (the part where he mentioned true connection), but Hachiman did not get it at this time. Yui and Yukino were discussing how they would reveal their feelings to Hachiman rather than preserve the status quo. That's because they want their friendship to be real right now.

Shizuka used Yukino's perverted sense of "noblesse oblige" to force Yukino to join the service club, according to the Light Novel. Shizuka once teases Yukino and Hachiman as a couple, which Yukino either didn't understand or purposefully played out. Shizuka is aware of Yukino's aspirations and hopes for her to avoid becoming a second Haruno by focusing on her strong areas. She handed Yukino her coat and urged her to join her and Hachiman to the ramen restaurant for ramen as a sort of bribe to keep her from reporting that Shizuka had slipped away in Episode 1 of Season 2 (adapted from Volume 7). Shizuka warned Hachiman about the prospect of someone breaking Yukino's shell and understanding her better in the future at a Christmas event, but she wants and desires Hachiman to be that person. Shizuka pointed out the reason Hachiman overlooked in taking up Iroha's request, whether he did it for Iroha or Yukin, to assist Hachiman in repairing the service club connection. Shizuka's statements surprised Hachiman, who realized he had made a mistake.
