Isshiki actually turned out to be a great character (easily my favorite in the entire series)

Yeah, she's also my favorite. She's really cute lol

(I can't find the ping pong gif)

I always thought Oregairu had a misleading title because much of the comedy ended in Season 1 and Season 2+3 felt quite serious for the most part.

The thing, to me, that's best about Isshiki is that she is, for Hachiman, a perfect combination of playful and serious. By one measure, she's always completely honest with Hachiman, but her honesty is buried under a layer of playful banter and teasing, which actually makes it easier for Hachiman to deal with.

She's much like Komachi in that respect, and it's not a coincidence that Isshiki's and Komachi's eventual meeting is epic - they instantly recognize each other as kindred spirits.
