I remember being a kid and reading the manga because the art looked interesting. Each chapter was only a couple pages. But it was chapter after chapter of this dude being a tool and a doormat for some popular girl who just pretends he doesn’t exist in public and I stopped because I figured it was just gonna be pathetic the whole time.
Have some god damn self respect.
Just want an excuse to post this
I think what bothers me about Komi is that she veers into the “my pet girl” territory a bit too often rather than being an actual human being depicted from watching and seeing how human beings behave.
A lot of anime does this. They turn girls into pets rather than people. It bothers me from time to time.
Otherwise it’s a reasonably ok show about crippling social anxiety making someone basically a mute.
The anime is ok. Mostly liked it for Najimi everyone else is a side character.
But high school romance anime are generally just kinda shit. Love is war had a solid first season and fell off massively.
I remember quite liking My Little Monster but it can also be quite cringe.
Actually i remember i want to eat your pancreas and your lie in april are goated
Love is war had a solid first season and fell off massively.
Sometimes I wonder if everyone else just has way higher standards than me, because I didn’t notice any real drop in quality in Love is War. I thought it lasted just long enough and came to a satisfying conclusion.
I mean it’s a pretty typical wish fulfillment “the girl who is so pretty she intimidates everyone is actually extremely shy but she opens up to ME” so I can’t get too chuffed about it. I only sat down to read it once for about an hour and never went back.
The one that made me feel the way you describe is Nagatoro. Like my god man grow a fucking spine.
I think I saw like half of the first episode of the Nagatoro anime and just turned it off, I almost feel like that was the first time I ever quit an anime mid-episode, something I’ve only done like twice since then. Honestly I don’t even remember why I wanted to try Nagatoro to begin with, cause I went into it already thinking it looked like it was gonna be bad. Columbam mortuam ne ederis.
You probably just got put off by the overwhelmingly bad vibes of that show. The artist is a pedo porn artist and Nagatoro is only different from the rest of his garbage in that it’s less explicit. It’s just pedo fetish porn that went mainstream, which happens all the time with anime
I guess it’s a very specific fetish? But if so it’s extra gross because the character is like fourteen.
But it was chapter after chapter of this dude being a tool and a doormat for some popular girl who just pretends he doesn’t exist in public
I feel like either the anime is wildly different from the manga or we watched different shows, because Komi never ignores Tadano and is very appreciative of him
