It's time for a brand new title that was just released (and surprisingly enough sold out on Rightstuf on Day 1), the second season of Haganai!
The second season of Haganai continues the adventures of the Neighbours Club with Kodaka, Yozora and Sena. The anime covers the next four novels of the original source material (LN #5 to #8) which so far have released at least 10 so it will take some time for another anime season to occur. I loved the first season (and I have watched the first two episodes of NEXT to verify something, see below) so I am looking forward for more Haganai.
The Funimation release contains the English and Japanese audio with optional English subtitles (not locked) for the Japanese version. The version I picked up is the Limited Edition artbox to match with my Season 1 set and the two cases have put the DVDs in one case while the Blu-ray is on another.
Just to point out, Funimation have changed one particular scene in Episode 2 with the TV Broadcast version due to inappropriate content which would be deemed reasonably unacceptable by US Law (underage involved in sexual activity) and such have played it safe. This won't affect the overall experience, it's just the Japanese creators went borderline hentai on their fans that's all.

Re: Club Guidelines
It has come to our attention that your club—officially formed with the goal of “making friends”—has been taking part in questionable behaviors on campus. We’d like to remind you that none of the following are approved club activities:
- Stalking (especially taking candid photos of your peers)
- Playing inappropriate video games
- Watching anime involving adult themes
- The creation of time machines
While we applaud your creative efforts in making a movie about intergalactic samurai robot wars, please note that the costumes do not fit our dress code. In addition, we have reports of brewing drama between Yozora and Sena regarding Kodaka—including the fact that an engagement has taken place. Please fill out required paperwork if the chapel needs to be reserved.
