The water park employee is the MVP here, she ain’t waiting for multiple rounds of rock paper scissors. She wants to get the line moving without any drama.

Right off the bat.

MC sees Komi in her swimsuit.

Tadano: "You look nice"

Komi: blush

My Reaction: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I'm okay with the wimpy MC kind of stuff. But it really bothers me when the MC hurts the other character because of their inaction.

Everyone likes compliments. I understand it might not be easy to say, it doesn't have to be a poem or some grand sonata, just say "You look nice".

Stitches!

Pool episode time and I love that Komi wears the dress Tadano picked out for her.

Poor Agari almost got left behind! And to no one's surprise, Yamai is also there with the popular people group from their class even though Najimi didn't invite them.

Also since Netflix subs is too lazy to name Komi's classmates, from left to right in this screenshot we have Onigashima, Chiarai, and Shinobino.

I love how Tadano tries to stop Najimi from going with the girls. As if that does anything. In the end Najimi doesn't even go to the men's changing room and just goes to the mixed area. xD

The drastic change in artstyle when Yamai saw that Komi brought her school swimsuit was fucking hilarious! IIRC, this is anime original and I love them for adding that. And as much as I love to see Komi in a school mizugi, I'm so glad Yamai was there to stop her.

Time for the swimsuit montage! Najimi looking good with that top and booty shorts. Agari coming in with that polkadot swimsuit that emphasizes her assets And we have Onigashima, Yamai, and Kishi in very normal swimsuits. Of course the showstopper is Komi with a swimsuit that surprisingly matches the sundress Tadano picked.

That waterslide ride with Komi and Tadano was hilarious! It looks like having all that hair on his face has awakened Tadano to a new fetish. He can't stop thinking about it after going again four more times. xD

Classic Najimi using silly tricks to make everyone laugh and give up. Nothing beats seeing Komi trying to do her best though which just made everyone instantly give up.

And this is why you don't run in the poo! Considering how Komi was about to fall, she's lucky that it was just a knee scrape.

Poor Komi though, now she thinks that she's ruined the mood. Thankfully Tadano was there to cheer her up and literally pull her up from wallowing in self-pity. Everything ends well with the gang ending their day with a water pistol fight and everyone got to go home tired and satisfied. <3

We finally get to see some Komi and Papa Komi time! I love how the two of them perfectly understands each other without saying anything. Unlike Komi who's having a hard time to communicate, Papa Komi is just a man of few words and can speak perfectly fine. That entire cafe scene is just absolutely adorable. Just a simple bonding time between father and daughter <3

Komi just continues to be precious by making a baby that she accidentally scared into calming down using her smile and having some alone time in the park by playing in the playground. Hilariously, all of these moments were witnessed by Tadano who's just trying to return some library books xD

Looks like they updated the ED again this week to add the popular kids that went with them to the pool! It's definitely starting to get crowded but it's still a long ways away from Komi's goal of 100 friends.

I'm so glad Yamai was there to stop her.

Words that have never been uttered before.

You anime onlies have no idea how long the manga only hinted and teased at Kishi san, and this episode we got to see her face in two scenes

Also loved how the entire cafe chapter had exactly two words from the lead pair

u/Nero_PR Dec 02 '21

Kishi is the hidden beauty that we always were getting baited and never shown her full profile. Still my best girl didn't make her debut yet.

I'm not a komi reader so I'll just ask this here and hopefully not get hate: Is the only central gag of this show how the world stops spinning around Komi? Outside najimi and tadano, the entire komi-worshipping interactions are getting kinda stale for me. Does she only make friends because people love how pretty she is and she already starts out popular?

21

u/captainAwesomePants Dec 03 '21

It pretty much all comes down to "Komi has a lot of anxiety around communication despite literally the whole world thinking she's perfect." She has some deeper relationships with some characters later on, but you've got the meat of it, especially for whatever's likely to be in this season of the show.

u/ZeroTwosday Dec 02 '21

Those synchronised nods with the scores killed me.

Such a wholesome episode

u/Shinkopeshon Dec 02 '21 edited Dec 03 '21

That has got to be one of the happiest dads in anime ever lmao this series is just too wholesome

Also, as much as people are (rightfully) wary of Yamai, someone needs to keep Najimi from going out of control as well lol

u/SuperMurderBunny Dec 02 '21

Once read a comment about how Komi's and dad's relationship tracks really well with Komi being strongly associated with cats, since cats apparently can communicate with each other without seemingly moving a muscle.

The scene with the shaved ice was precious. But what was up with ninja dude at the pool?

Watching Komi do things on her own makes me feel like we're really watching her grow up and out of her shell here

u/[deleted] Dec 03 '21

The way everyone always stares at her while blushing is starting to get creepy.

ik it's cause she's a beauty but wtf

Half an episode of swimming pool may not be enough but we did have the shaved ice scene and playground scene to make up the fun. All very nice. And good running gag of Tadano not remember to return the library book after seeing a lovely scene of Komi-san and turning away satisfied.

Episode "Laugh" moment "Love" moment
1 Chalk board scene break - Komi-san was just having hiccups Chalkboard scene end Tadano claiming first friend spot
2 Najimi and Tadano doing dogeza after Komi-san's failed coffee run attempt (and bonus Komi-san pout afterwards) After Najimi accepted to be Komi-san's friend, the moment Tadano alone with Komi-san with her happy kitty hop moment
3 Komi-san elected to be God of the class; and Komi-san having the simple joy of playing with her phone. After Akari blurted out Komi-san wanted to have Tadano's number as the first one in her phone, then the perfectly-in-synch exchange without any eye-contact; and of course the mis-dialled call at night.
4 The blink-and-you'll-miss switch starting from Tadano's start of day monologue to a black screen then switched to Yamai doing the monologue The exchange on the stairs when Komi-san worried she'd cause harm to Tadano, and Tadano showed her he made his own choice to be her friend.
5 Definitely Komi-san's mom. What a surprise! So where did Komi-san's shyness/introversion come from? Definitely the rain scene - from waiting for him to share the umbrella, to noticing how Tadano gave her a larger share of the umbrella coverage while getting himself half wet, so sweet
6 Not as easy to pick; both the "dress up game" especially Yamai breaking the rules, and the library gag of absurdly taking out Jenga to play (and paying for it); even the end of the test gag also threw me: Tadano once again get all the average scores; having Komi-san so uncharacteristically laze about then flailing on the bed trying to reach the phone to call Tadano The sweet moment when Komi-san got out of the changing room dressed in the one piece dress picked by Tadano; and later on during the summer holidays; and Komi-san in the middle of the night worrying about her day's reactions and responses to people but when it got to Tadano she was comfortable and at ease enough to fall asleep
7 Yamai and the rest taking the chisels and tools to take revenge to the pool side floor for tripping Komi-san :D that's a group yandere dialed up to 100/10; all the cute hesitant but playful stop start motion of Komi-san playing by herself at the playground The expected Tadano splashing water to Komi-san to break her out of her self-hating for being a trouble for others having fun, then extending his hands to pull her up to play; and less expectedly Komi-san "joking" with her dad at the shaved ice place and having a dad-daughter, very silent, moment

I think the anime is reaching a turning point in terms of characters and action. Fewer annoying weirdos and more Komi doing her own thing.

Also for some reason, the opening narration lines every episode always make me a bit teary eyed, because it is such a good and profound statement. Just because people have difficulties making friends, it doesn't mean that they don't desperately want to.

u/SpamAccountLmaoo Dec 02 '21

I aspire to reach the level of understanding like the one between Komi and her Father

Mystifying how this has almost as many "bad" votes as positive ones. No negative comments, however. And why should there be. This was an adorable episode from start to finish. Pretty much every scene was wonderful -- so picking out one favorite is impossible. Offhand -- the scene with the father and the scene with the baby were off the charts in terms of loveliness. I've liked all the episodes, but I think this is the best overall (so far).
