#Kometani Chuushaku

[thisaritree]

i still have yet to figure out what this page was supposed to be

[lotus-duckies]

the character foils here are Superb

the way komi and naruse are drawn in a similar, very attractive anime typical way while their peers are very cartoony, signalling that they are significantly more attractive than them

but komi can't talk, she has social anxiety and plagued with Thoughts TM while everyone adores her to the point of fighting over just being in her Presence, and naruse thinks so highly of himself but no one cares about him

and tadano accompanies komi, being so kind and loving and accomodating her needs, he's so good at reading her and explaining her to people

while kometani reads naruse without either of them talking and he's like "this dude's a freak btw" and follows him around anyway

[skyler-ngl]

i keep hoarding social medias in a desperate attempt to find more content here's a little as a tribute

Kometani Chushaku - Komi Can't Communicate

Propaganda:

None needed he is perfect :)

[theauthor27]

Can I get some art of these two kissing each other on the forehead, and cuddling, and holding hands, and hugging, and carefully tending to the other's wound while they call them an idiot and say that they should've listened to them, you know, the usual.

kometani chuushaku...

Kometani Chuushaku from Komi Cant Communicate is just a little guy!

[aaamike]

Kometani looks so dead inside knowing he has to deal with Naruse daily...

BRO MOVE

[incorrect-komisan-quotes]

Manbagi: I've found this really funny asking game last night and I wanted to try it with you all! So, If you found out that you only had one day left to live-

Tadano: I don't know you but this premise is the total opposite of fun.

Manbagi: -Don't be a killerjoy Tadano- what would you do with it?

Najimi: Something illegal.

Komi: Say goodbye to my family and friends.

Tadano: ...I guess I'll get the most expensive life insurance possible and marry Komi, so she can get most of the money.

Everyone, except Komi that is blushing vividly: Awwwww~

Katai: Accept my fate.

Ase: I think... something illegal.

Naruse: Same Katai.

Komentani: Same as Ase.

Isagi: I would message ten people saying that if they didn't forward the message to ten other people, I would die the day after.

Everyone is silent.

Manbagi: ...what?

Najimi: THAT'S AWESOME! Can I change my answer?

[sassyfever]

Kometani emoting?? The world has been blessed..

[bkworm5]

Ahhhh he’s so cute!!! I can’t believe Narrator-kun has such an adorable smile. I feel so blessed 

[thisaritree]

i thought it would've been really funny if kometani just couldn't appear in photos like a vampire

i mean he was legit invisible in a panel and most people don't acknowledge him

Komi Can’t Communicate S2 – 07 – …But Sometimes She Can

Komi is haunted by the possibility Najimi saw her holding Tadano’s hand as he slept. She spends all night trying to word a letter of explanation, but because she’s not 100% sure Najimi did see it, she doesn’t want to write anything to make Najimi suspicious. Meanwhile, Tadano wants to thank Komi for coming by, but isn’t 100% sure whether she was actually there or if she was just part of his fever dreams.

In their efforts to not say something that will give the other party the wrong idea, the misunderstandings only mount. Ironically, this is a sign that Komi is indeed becoming better at communicating. She is not just thinking internally and freezing up like the past, but trying to figure out what someone else is thinking or intended. That said, Komi was most certainly not just “checking his pulse!”

The last few episodes have shown an incremental uptick in the Komi x Tadano romance angle, but there are always new weirdo friends to meet, and this week’s is Naruse, whom I honestly can’t remember even in the background of previous episodes, but maybe that’s the point. As invisible as he’s been to me (and the rest of the gang), he is absolutely in love with himself.

Nine months into the school year, Naruse finally decides now is the time to approach Komi. One interesting bit of possibly accidental perceptiveness on his part? He assumes Komi has never spoken to him due to a communication disorder, for which he doesn’t judge her. But he clearly has a blind spot when it comes to the protective wall of secondary friends surrounding Komi, Tadano, and Najimi; he assumes they’re all his fans even if that’s a very big delusional reach.

When Komi returns his hanky that he saw him drop, he assumes it’s a sign she’s in love with him. Because of this, he’s a bit too forward in asking for her contact info, and gets Tadano’s instead. Naruse also has a constant deadpan translator/commentator in Chuushaku Kometani, who I wished would have gotten in a narration fight with the usual female narrator; to no avail.

The third and final segment returns us to the central romance as groups are to be formed for the upcoming class trip to Kyoto. When Tadano asks where she went for middle school, she says Kyoto, but after that she starts acting squirrelly even for her. Tadano correctly assumes she’s not feeling okay. After what may be the first instance I can recall of Najimi getting the eff out of the way, Tadano asks her about it, and she initially says it’s nothing, she’s fine, and they part ways.

But then, when they’re still only about ten feet away, she calls him, and tells him what’s been eating her: she lied about going to Kyoto. Her class went to Kyoto, but she was the last person chosen for a group, which picked her by playing jankenpon. She’ll never know whether the other members of her group welcomed her with a smile, were offended by her presence, or didn’t care one way or another…because she couldn’t raise her head.

It’s Komi’s most extensive and most heartbreaking sharing of her bad old days before she met Tadano (and Najimi), and Koga Aoi does the lord’s work infusing Komi’s tiny voice with meloncholy and longing. It’s also probably the most she’s spoken continuously yet; another sign that things aren’t the same as they were then, and never will be.

Tadano tells her she has friends now. Even if some of the others would “rather be with someone else” (highly arguable), Tadano would rather be with her than anyone else. He adds Najimi in there in case he sounds too forward, but I think Komi gets the idea as she hangs up and finishes their talk in person.

After talking with Tadano, Komi feels a lot better and is actually looking forward to the trip. The next day, in a complete inversion of her traumatic middle school experience, every single girl in the class wants to be in the same group as Komi, so the teacher has to employ a lottery system. To them, being able to spend time with her isn’t a burden; it’s a prize.
