Of course, that's only because in the game they get together after knowing each other for like... 10 days... and that wouldn't allow them to fit in Fuko and Kotomi's arc before it, since they can't really co-exist.
Yeah, I read the VN. I think the problem with season 1 is that they tried to fit too much into it. They tried to juggle everyone's routes together and mesh them into a superroute (this isn't the only anime adaptation of a VN to do this, this is very common really), so ended up having less time to focus on the main story.

I felt the ending to season 2 was a bad way to wrap up the arc, even if the series itself isn't finished. As I said, perhaps the novel did it better and JC Staff messed it up.
