Highlights

âž½ Summer Vacation is over and for the first time, Komi is sad that school's starting again, as she had friends to spend the time with. She reminisces about all the things she did that summer that made her happy, which was so cute!

➽ A new character named Inaka Nokoko is introduced and I found her so funny. She's a country girl but terrified of everyone finding out and ridiculing her. Instead, she aspires to be a city girl like Komi, not knowing that Komi doesn't feel nearly as cool as Inaka imagines 😂

âž½  Another highlight is the school's sports festival, as Komi's class is determined to win for her! Komi is definitely better at sports than I am though 😂 I used to hate these sports events at school!

➽ Tadano is still the person who can decipher Komi's intentions the best, so his attempt to teach Yami and Nakanaka to interpret her feelings goes horribly wrong 🙈

➽ Tadano winning a cat key chain for Komi and offering it to her - only for them to switch, as she already had one - was SO adorable, I'm rooting for these two 🥺

I’m really enjoying this slice-of-life series, and as someone with social anxiety myself, I can relate a lot of my high school experiences to Komi’s. Love the strong friendship elements in this series too.
