just so awkward. makes it uncomfortable to watch. i get it, that's the whole point of the show. and imagine how komi feels, i know

but i'm not going to be able to binge this show. i'll have to go little by little

another thing, is gender ambiguity pretty common in japanese high schools? it's fairly common in anime, so that's why i ask. which, to me, is kind of weird, since japanese schooling is pretty formal, no? and the culture is fairly conservative? which is also kind of odd given men in kabuki, etc. (just random musing of a random person)

Why have they made Komi's head a weird shape, it is not good looking to anyone.

Well, that was an interesting episode.

We got introduced to three new characters. The aggressive girl who thought Komi should be treated like royalty. The massive guy who was insane, and proceeded to shit himself when Komi tried to give him his key back. And lastly, Najimi.

To fit in with society these days, the creators made Najimi. A person who you love to hate. A person who doesn't want to be a specific gender. Who is overly sexual and because of their personality type, can become very annoying very easily.

It was so good to see Komi make another friend. Najimi may not be the best person, but I hope to see her improve and I hope the creators give her great character development.

I just love Najimi, she is so comedic but at least apologized to Komi for having her go through the trouble of getting her a special coffee, even though it was wrong. really loved that scene where Komi was trying to give back the house key to the guy, she is now friends with Najimi! Najimi's people skills are insane too.

I can't appreciate the ED enough. The goddamn animation, and the fucking song, both are in a class of their own fr.

Who knows? Najimi might be non-binary. The way Najimi was so open to Tadano smashing with them 💀💀💀

Lol, I'm not sure but it feels like they are doing a lot of JoJo references through Komi and I'm all here for it. Komi-san's unintentional death stare worked in her favour.

Komi-san's progress ain't much but it's honest work. Najimi should go a bit easy on those tasks from now on.

The ED is pretty good

So after a socially very awkward Komi-san, we now have a socially very adept Najimi. They definitely don't get along very well though, but they have an interesting dynamic xD

REALLY LIKED IT!

Haven't felt like this about an anime for a long time.
The writing is creative, insightful, humorous, and GENUINE (not afraid of crossing lines to uphold its identity).
What a rare combination. Fans of the manga were right to celebrate the anime adaptation.

The introduction of Agari elevated the comedy even higher than before. And it's only the 2nd episode! This show has already become a classic in my book.

Fun episode. Very pretty OP and alright ED, Najimi is pretty fun and I enjoyed it. Although the scenes with Tadano and Komi are the best.
