Jello Reviews - Komi Can't Communicate
Added 2021-07-02 19:16:18 +0000 UTCA review of the manga "Komi Can't Communicate"
KOMI CAN'T COMMUNICATE - 6.5/10
If you like...
Romcoms
Anime archetypes instead of real characters
Large supporting casts
Main characters who actually talk to each other
Relationships that should definitely be polyamorous but aren't
...then you might like this manga!
This manga is getting an anime adaptation soon, plus I think it's wrapping up. I've been reading it for the last few years so here is my milquetoast take on it!
Comments
I know this is years old now, but listening to this I feel pretty confident you would really like You and I Are Polar Opposites, based on how you talk about the good parts of Komi. It's an extremely cute romance manga where the main couple gets together in the first chapter, would highly recommend giving it a read

2024-08-30 12:41:55 +0000 UTCListening to this makes me think you might like Ogami Tsumiki to Kinichijou. It's got similar vibes to early Komi Can't Communicate, but it doesn't have way too many side characters. It also has some good worldbuilding. Its whole "monster-people exist and are integrated into society" thing isn't just an excuse to have one of the leads be a kemonomimi (though that is definitely part of it), there's also stuff like what kinds of accommodations are made for the monster-people, and places where accommodations are not made or not good.

2024-03-19 08:02:13 +0000 UTCi watched through the anime when the dub came out, and then watched season 2, and the disappointment i felt seeing the stupid edgy dragon girl go from "interesting pathetic charming loser" to "fights with the yandere so they can be bad characters together" is immeasurable

2023-08-19 04:51:54 +0000 UTCI'd like to see a list that splits Komi's friends between "Good Friends" and "Bad Friends". And then there's the "Not Her Friend" section reserved exclusively for that Yandere chick.

2022-03-17 16:08:43 +0000 UTCMan I'm late to listening to this. I tried Komi but it didn't grab me and knowing it's 300 chapters I'm kinda glad. I have low tolerance for bullshit and padding, but glad the love triangle and fluff made it sorta worth it.

2021-07-06 23:11:41 +0000 UTCThe fact that they had the beautiful endgame with the three characters settling their crushes and then followed it with a "BUT WHAT DOES THE YANDERE THINK ABOUT THIS EPILOGUE" is maybe the best example of this manga having no idea what I want from it.

2021-07-03 01:23:34 +0000 UTCIf you are still taking recommendations for stuff to watch/play, then i'll recommend watching Oban Star-Racers. Even if it doesn't look like something for you, i'll still suggest that you watch the first episode (it's different from the rest)

2021-07-02 21:59:12 +0000 UTCAs much as I like the manga I agree that there are a more than a few characters I just don't like...really hate that creepy stalker.
