Komi-san cannot communicate – Chapter 6: Jokes / Shopping / In a beauty salon / She hesitates / I’m studying for a test / Summer vacation
In order to communicate with others, Komi tries to crack jokes. However, the age of the same at which they are written does not help in communication. But Tadano shows that even speaking it orally can have the same result.
After discovering that Komi doesn’t go shopping, Najimi invites her to buy clothes with Tadano as the actress and Agari. Yamai joins them at the mall. So they decide to have a competition where Komi chooses clothes, following a few simple rules. Tadano is the winner.
With her new dress on, Komi decides to go to the beauty salon. Restless before entering, but in the end it does too. Get the same old cut and interact with the new employee. In its own way. The next day, only Tadano notices the haircut.
Komi cannot sleep at night as she remembers the day’s conversations. Think about the interactions, which, in each case, could have been better. Until I fell asleep.
With the exams so close, Najimi, Tadano and Komi decide to do a study group in the library. But Gorimi-senpai is careful not to make any noise, hit them with a harisen, in case they make a noise by hitting them three times should they leave the library. Which happens quickly for Najimi. So that shortly afterwards Komi and Tadano also left of their own accord.
With the summer vacation already started, Komi has been clearing her unfinished business and is trying to ask her friends out on a date. But it doesn’t work. However, she is invited by Najimi to go to the beach, Tadano is confirmed for the exit, Komi is accepted.
A development that progresses, a bond that grows
on Komi-san cannot communicate – Chapter 6 has had more than one occasion where the minimal details were pretty important. For example, and the one I think is the most important is the one Tadano recognized as the one Komi’s hair cut. Something I look at shows a connection between Komi and Tadano. Not necessarily romantic. I think it shows that they got so close that it is easier for them to get along. I don’t know very well how to explain as my example can get confusing, but for example βIf you didn’t understand the teacher in class, but you ask a friend and you understand him the first time, even if he does Teacher himself did not understand your friend’s explanation β. I have a feeling that the protagonists’ friendship reaches this point.
Personally, I am mostly an observer with the people around me to see small changes. However, it is also not that he is specifically looking for them to talk about. When I do this, it’s mostly to get angry, but only with my close friends. However, I can’t say that I always see the smallest changes in people, so I’m not confident in saying that I would notice a haircut of this “order of magnitude”. And even if it did, it seems so trivial to me that I would certainly not mention it.
In short, these little details can help demonstrate the “connection” (to put it that way) between two or more individuals. Something that in anime in general is reflected in the development of the characters and / or their romantic relationship. Basically because it’s easier to see these situations in anime from romance that in one of Science fiction, for example.
Komi-san with a lot of “action”
During the episode, Komi showed a lot of “action” in her own way. Not just to speak again, twice, technically. But he also had to make decisions that were in previous episodes, very close to the current one, it would have cost a lot more to do this. Without going any further, this time Komi made the decision to call a lot faster than she got her phone.
Which shows me once again the development of his character. Little by little he has become “more normal” with his friends. Even if they still have differences and misunderstandings. As shown in Komi-san cannot communicate – Chapter 6 with the misunderstanding with agari.
Plus, of course, the one who has agreed to wear the clothes her friends have chosen for her. First of all, I have to say that at first I believed that Komi was reserved for the idea of ββgoing to a mall, something like Mya-nee (“WataTenIn a way. Since they don’t share personalities. I imagined she would be restless and / or overwhelmed by the number of people at first, but she was pretty calm throughout the arc. From waiting when she got him confused with a mannequin, to the point of trying on each of the outfits they prepared for him. What, the Chinese dress fitted quite well, Yamais was over the top (which I even thought would not be tried on).
As expected, the development of the main characters in Komi-san cannot communicate is on the right track. It doesn’t go very quickly, but each time it shows more details that may have existed all along but gradually come to light. I like the speed of character / plot development that I admit. Now, however, it’s time to prepare for the next episode which will bring fan service because a school anime with no pool or beach chapter doesn’t feel complete.
