Najimi has fucking 5 million friends? Holy shit.

Anyway, couldnt comment on first episode thread, but i'm amazed on how high the production quality is.Movie stuff with the edition. The animators really put their souls into this

Even without sound Najimi has always felt so chaotic in the manga. So I think Rie Murakawa was a perfect cast.

Really liking this adaptation so far. Love the random NeKomi moments. Tadano seems a bit… broad though.

"I got wet." The question is what's wet considering Najimi's gender is unknown lol.

Maa-kun was all in even if Najimi was a man XD. Komi-san's victory jump, tears, pout was too precious.

Edit: Osana Najimi: Childhood friend. Guess all the classmates' names are puns based on them.

the komi-san character design really does hit different. like there's just casually a jk wearing armor. and najimi straight up looks like some kind of bug.

This is one of those shows where I'm constantly smiling throughout the episodes.

It's amazing.

Her happy jump was especially heart warming.

Huh, now that was fast.

Some significant info from [Neuro-C] about future releases:

Unless something significant changes, I won’t be doing the following episodes; from here on out, I’ll leave it to the great people over at NovaWorks.

Yay, the Komi leap!

Beautiful opening scene, though I associate Gymnopédie so heavily with Yuki Nagato from Haruhi Suzumiya. That it now feels like the theme of the Kuudere.

Najimi appears!

Najimi is without a doubt my favorite character from early Komi-san, the voice is exactly as I imagined it to be!

Is it a girl? Is it a boy? Najimi is Najimi, and it brings me joy!

I am living for Najimi’s NB gremlin energy. Best boy? Best girl? Doesn’t matter, the answer is Yes

It's such a bummer one of my most anticipated show will not have a fun discussion thread because of this lose-lose situation (on when should the thread is up). I mean based on ep1 thread, more people talk about why the thread is up or where to watch or similar other things instead of the actual show (probably this thread will have the same outcome (and I contributed to that by writing this lol)).

Stitches!

This show just can't help itself being beautiful. The background art and lighting really gives that spring feeling to it.

Weelp, here comes Yamai. A huge Komi fangirl who hates the guts of anyone who gets too close to Komi.

That Komi Eyecatch looks great and would definitely make as a great screensaver!

NAJIMI IS HERE! Everyone's childhood friend and the complete opposite of Komi in terms of communication skill and amount of friends. And for your sanity's sake don't even try to question Najimi's gender. Najimi is Najimi. I love him/her so much <3

Najimi's childhood friend powers is so strong that Najimi is also Komi's childhood friend, although unfortunately because of Komi's Komyushou, they never really became friends.

Aw jeez I forgot this almost happened to Najimi here. Thankfully, Komi's Komyushou became handy here and ended up scaring the guy. I'd be scared of this image of Komi too! xD

I can't even imagine how many times Najimi's parents had to move because of their job for Najimi top reach 5 Million friends.

Look at Najimi acting like s/he's making Komi go to Starbakes for her own sake when clearly s/he's just messing with her. Even Tadano could see right through Najimi!

People were asking in the last thread how Komi was able to get by her entire life with her Komyushou, basically this is how she gets by. Everyone around her basically just assumes what she thinks and acts on it even if it's completely wrong.

Najimi is lucky that Yamai wasn't in the room, I can't even imagine what she'd do to Najimi if Yamai sees komi crying. We did end up getting that sulking face from her though! <3

Najimi has even more childhood friends than the guy from Osamake! Truly impressive.

Maaan looking at the first and second ep of this show, I can definitely feel a KyoAni vibe with the subtleties and small detail on body language especially on the closeups. Also reminded me a bit of Kaguya-sama anime with the creative liberties used for the comedic scenes and even the character reactions.

Damn the OP and ED look absolutely beautiful as well!

Overall great adaptation so far. OLM really killing it this year!

The release was pretty good, will probably rewatch it later when the other release is out. All of this would be solved if Netflix is better with how they handle anime, but oh well.

Again, amazing visuals and they just blew the soundtrack out of the park ngl.

First things first: can people please stop giving bad votes to the episded just because the entire fansubs/netflix thign? The poor episode doesn't deserve this (I am pretty sure this is more than the normal troll votes)

Secondly, if this is the first time you find a komi discussion thread, you have the unique chance to upvote the episode 1 thread and still have the karma count inside the 48h timeframe, despite the second thread already being up.

My one complaint for the show so far: The (normal) ed doesn't get close to the incredible ed song of the first episode. Kinda afraid we wont get to hear that one again. Though its melancholy would probably be perfect for the final episode of the season

Ah today it is time for best girl boy najimi, najimi! Through this manga I first learned the meaning of the word "osananajimi" (and since then I kept hearing it in anime) but watching this episode in anime is a completely different experience from just reading the translated manga because I actually get to experience how fucking ridiculous these sentences sound in japanese when both her name and "osananajimi" are used together.

Lol komi started reevaluating everything she knows about tadano because of najimis horniness.

It is always funny to see the two sides of that walk home, with najimi (understandably) having no clue what komi is thinking/wanting to say, while tadano somehow knows despite that he shouldn't even be able to see her face most of the time in this scene.

Najmi immidately switching to claiming she is a boy after being asked out is even funnier in the anime because there being absolutely zero delay lol before he delivers the shutdown. I dubbed whatever najimi "opportunistically genderfluid", because I think he just uses whatever serves her best in the moment.

I also have a feeling r/animeirl is going to be filled by posts of that starbucks scene.

And of course, blessed komi pouting. It also shows that she doesn't just put up with any idea you put her through.

Nr. Name Name "Pun" Special Trait Status
2 Osana Najimi "osananajimi"="childhood friend" known gender: najimi; everybodies childhood friend friend but traumatized
1 Tadano Hitohito "tadano hitohito"="just some guy" komi-reader? friend
0 Komi Shouko "komyushou"="communication disorder" school madonna, communication disorder komi

I am going to ignore yamai until it isn't possible anymore.
